Suite 101 to close - A Lesson for Cu...

We have known for weeks that Google's algorithm was killing Suite 101. Revenue on 159 articles for me dropped from $150 per month to $14 per month. I was hurt, but not devastated like some who had no other income besides Suite.
As a Twitter Manager and writer on many other sites I had other income to live on. My Twitter business has grown successfully and I have now hit over 110,000 followers. I like Suite had to make some positive changes in my business and let some non-productive accounts go.
As both Suite and I made some changes, other alternatives had to be looked at and I took on more jobs. Suite 101 today announced the firing or retiring of more than 18 employees in high ranks. Google has killed them as far as income is concerned and our leader, Michael Kedda had to make some hard decisions.
People lost their jobs today and it was sad. One of the heads in Admin let go was Lima and she will be sorely missed. She was the assistant editor there. She helped me when I was being attacked and cyberbullied and she is my friend.
Suite 101 will change over to a new company and make many more changes to come. Some top writers are jumping boat, but not me until the day comes when they tell me "so long." Until that day I will continue to be part of the community I have grown to love.
All the problems at Curezone remind me of Suite. It is no longer a health forum at Curezone, it is a "FightZone." I see mods attacking mods and I see hate and anger. It is no longer a let me heal you place, but I want to get rid of you place.
I don't understand why there is so much hatred and why your way has to be the right way. What I do understand is that there are many health remedies. When I came down with MS, Luella May sent me a remedy that needed 53 or more supplements. At the time I could not afford that method and nicely told her that.
What I did discover was there are alternative treatments that cost less than $100. Does this mean my way is correct or better? No it simply meant that my way was best for me. It worked and I got well.
As I watch the wars on Curezone between Mr. H and Tony Isaacs I am reminded of Suite 101. It is not what is right, but what must be. It is a time in this life when people have to stay in their forums and not bother others. It is a time not to fight so much.
Sometimes it is better to understand your remedy is not correct for everyone. I am neither friend to either party or to InCharge who is constantly attacking members including me. What I am in favor of is seeing Curezone not end up like Suite and be forced to change names and start letting people go.
I feel sorry for the Webmaster and the abuse he receives. I feel sorry for the Global Mods with the decisions they have to be made, but most of all I feel sorry for the sick and helpless who come to Curezone for help and all they see is hate, hate and more hate.
I wish for once there would be no wars. If you don't like a Mod, stay in your own forum. Let Curezone be at rest for once.

This is a reply to # 1,821,491I am very much agreement on many things you mention. I do not like to see the fighting on Cure Zone either. I use many protocols I learned here. From many different forums.
MH has it right. He did some attacking when he first came on. But when he got his own forum, he sticks to that one. Gives some pretty good advice along the way.
Another thing I find mildly amusing (even if it is helpful to others) is some people seemingly trying to flaunt their knowledge and out do others. Sometimes they get so deep into why this atom works better than the other fellow's that I simply move along or fall asleep. I simply need to know that it works. When I get in my car I do not need to know exactly how each component works. I am happy to know that it works and how I can use it.
To sorta tie the paragraph above together here is an example. I have some lung problems from smoking 30+ years. I tend to get chest colds and/or bronchitis. I got a nebulizer after reading of Trapper's success with them. I got a Silvergen silver maker from reading the forum and DQ's talking about them. I use collodial silver I made and a few drops of lobelia tincture that I learned from Luella May. Any time I have the slightest chest pain I do the treatment and it goes away quickly. My knowledge has come from all around CZ. And I do not need to know each minute detail how it works, just that it does.
I gleaned much, much more from many CZ forums.
I, too, have been attacked a few times for offering an opinion. Nowadays I usually only offer opinions by email. Most people will let an attack bounce off, but I am different. When I am attacked personally because of an opinion, then I will forever have a hard time taking that person seriously again, no matter how deep their knowledge. Most of the time I do not read their stuff any more. I certainly realize I am different, but do wonder how many others are like me. As I write this I notice there are 9818 people logged in to CZ. Gotta be some like me. I hope they get something useful like I have over the years.
Sorry about the layoffs. I feel for anyone losing a job.
Thanks for listening, Sara.

This is a reply to # 1,821,948Corey always a pleasure to see you. Yes I feel sorry for the sick as I have been there. You are confused and you plain don't know what to do. Why does one protocol have to be right? I see good in both sides. As a former Natural News writer I can tell you that I have read many of Tony's and Lu's articles and some are very good and some are very boring. The same goes for Mr. H. I am not friend to either and I look at this impartially. What I disagree with is anyone making Curezone a battlezone.
Sometimes Corey you just got to be quiet. I have to admit I got drew into the battle and I now regret that move. I wrote a article with praise for both sides and I got 3 negative and 1 positive vote. I attribute this to friends voting for friends.
I just wish we did not see battle after battle on Curezone. Wouldn't it be nice if all the haters went to a new site called "I plan to get rid of you." Other than that I plan to write less and enjoy my homelife more.
You have noticed Corey that more and more are leaving Curezone. We use to have tons of top professionals here and geez even Doc Sutter and Ask Mom left. Never see Dr. Lam and well the list goes on. We have become a place to debate Christianity, hate Muslims and beat up on everyone who looks crosswise at us.
People use to be friends, not any more. The decency has left. So for me, I will stay in my forum more if at all and will concentrate on doing what makes me happy.
I always appreciate your posts and you are always very smart. Yes, we have been attacked Corey and the attacks continue today but somewhere along the way we have to say, "So!"
