What does the Village represent? There is such a diverse selection of people here. Some we have met on the message boards or through e-mails. One thing the majority of them have in common is that they are caring. There is an abundance of understanding, willingness to share openly and honestly of themselves, support for any and all who may need it, humor abounds in the Village at times.

Lately we have been working hard on getting a lot of new things going in the Village that we hope will benefit and please you who take an interest in our virtual community here. Some people might think that we are to strict about the porn and nudity that is allowed in The Village. First and foremost of importance to us are the people who have sites in the Village.

It is important to us that you feel safe to express yourself freely and without fear or retribution of any kind. We try to be open-minded about the subject content of sites that people want to put up. We only ask that it be remembered that there are children in the Village.

We have had to assume a 'No tolerance' rule with the nudity and such that we can allow as it is assumed by a lot who open sites here that this is the place to put that sort of stuff and therefore we had to draw the line somewhere.

When I took the position of Minister for The Village in November I had no idea how to start or what I was doing. First of all I am straight... At first I think the people here in The Village thought that I could not understand nor identify with the issues or concerns they had. I kept plugging away tho...going through the streets sending out Welcome letters in hopes that I would see some response on the message board. I worked on my site...The Village of course*S*...got a Webring going...got discouraged and then picked my spirits up and went forward again. I wasn't going to give up on the Village...that is one thing I am not is a quitter. In my Village site I tried to give people an image of the kind of person I am...hoping that it would make it a little easier for them to accept me and maybe come to me with ideas, things they wanted to see happen in the their community.
