Thanks Sakura! I'm glad you understand and I understand exactly where you're coming from with the keeping spirits up thing. That's why we're not running around deleting posts willy nilly. :P

Although, I'll admit right now there are a few threads that I'm currently on right now that I unabashedly won't be on topic. I can't help it - on one of them, it's the bantering that keeps us from being sad while we try to treat a brave king betta. I think, in this case, the bantering is also really helping the OP cope too. He's already had a rough time with his beloved bird dying and I think those of who have been posting on the thread all want to make him feel better. But yes, that thread aside, I'll definitely be working on the off-topicness. Thanks, Vaygirl. :)
