"I'm telling on you" is often, in the playground, followed by a petulant stamp of the foot and a sharp exit. Have we now reached the exit stage? (I hope!)

Soontobe has made a point that there should be more diversity on GN.
What do others think?
It is a tricky one because first of all GN is open to all who choose to contribute, but obviously self-selecting to a degree just by the site name and target group.
It is also hard to establish the degree of diversity among members as we retain anonymity and are under no obligation to reveal or even refer to ethnic background, religious affiliation, physical or any other disability, political inclination ( well some people are very clear on that, but not necessarily all) education, age, colour or shoe size.
So who's to say?
Does it really matter?
one of soon's very first posts, when she said how much she enjoyed winding people up.
I most certainly did not say that Maggiemaybe!
I think I know who did, and, to be fair, it wasn't soon 
I won't say who!!
and, if there was a decent search facility, I would probably find that I have contradicted myself on many occasions.
Criteria for joining GN.
You must be human
Let's leave it at that.
Thank you very much Maggiemaybe. Apology accepted. 
As posted on other thread:
We know this is obvious to most of you but just to clarify, yes, we are a public forum, but Gransnet does not keep anyone's details in a big black dossier for nefarious purposes.
There's loads of variety in opinion on GN, but if there's anything we can do to make the site more welcoming and inclusive, email us at contactus. We're all ears.
The search facility - <ahem> admittedly imperfect that it may be - is there to be helpful if people searching for info, not to check up on other users to catch them out. That's definitely not in the spirit of GN...
We know most of you have said as much earlier in the thread so apologies for repeating. Just wanted you all to know we are around...and wishing this thread would disappear 
Goodness Galen you can't let someone like that drive you off the site. Just leave the thread and pour yourself a large 
and PM a friend to moan about 'bears of very little brain'.
Ignore the thread Galen
Don't go!!
We will miss your 'pearls of wisdom' 
Don't go Galen! Why should her juvenile posturing and troublemaking drive you out?
I admit my Sunday afternoon has not been enhanced by this twaddle. You know how GN "advertise" threads on their daily newsletter. It won't be any of these will it?
Some very disturbing things have come to light, not least an unhealthy obsession with personal details as revealed in the course of posting. I find it distasteful, intrusive, and absolutely one of the worst aspects of this internet site, normally a circle of friends and acquaintances, and a rich source of support, humour, advice, wisdom and empathy.
The serpent has certainly found its way into our Garden of Eden 
After noon, 
No comment.

company, enjoyment, fun, interaction, diversion.
It must be just me then that thinks that's what chatting is
