Keeping yoru place

How do you all keep your place after replying to a post? I keep finding things in people's replies that I didn't read the originals of. Somehow I'm not getting back to where I left off even by using the drop down in the top of my browser to return to what I thought was the page I was on. What tricks do you all use to keep from missing things?

ETA AACCCKKK!! I can't fix my typo in the heading of the post. sigh.

Oh, Kat. That's awful. I still cry a few times a week missing my mom, and she died 3.5 years ago. It was the most horrible, horrible pain I ever experienced, and I don't know how it didn't KILL me.

So, I know your pain is huge beyond words.

((((((((((Kat)))))))))))

God bless,

You gals are amazing! I hope you know you are saving lives, really.
Did he think you were trolling?

Well, I'd have no chance had I tried to be a Russian Bride! They got so many model-types. Of course, maybe they're scamming, too, for all we know, with fake pictures. A whole country pulling a Kimmer!

Just saying I had the same reaction. I felt like the DUCK searching through SWANS, and when I saw the occasional homely gal Ifelt so sorry for her.

Too funny and I bet he didn't say that in a bad way.
I know mine had a glint of hope in his eyes when he saw me trying to pull up Olga's profile.

Also thank you for you kind words on the hardwork of many here and welcome to the boards. I am glad Kimmer didn't get you too!

I just realized I gave that wench my ss#, through the affiliates program. I can't believe I trusted her!
Maybe I should sign up for one of those monthly credit report checkers? I would hate for her to take over my identity next.
What do you guys think, should I sign up for the credit report checker thing? And where would I even sign up for that?

Are the MEMBERS who paid LIFETIME fees getting to have their legitimate say at Kimkins? Did they have a chance since this expose began at various blogs and, recently, on an LA newscast? No. Legitimate grievances were shouted down or deleted.

Over at Kimkins, people have been banned for what they put in PRIVATE MESSAGES--let me repeat, PRIVATE MESSAGES being read by admins over there and used to ban folks. Some were summarily banned without warning for just posting something here (not even a rant, just anything). Some have said, "Hey, I didn't even post at KK or LCF about this hoopla, and I got banned. I don't understand!"

At KK, the desire to squelch any sort of real conversation on the FRAUD and one-sided banning has been overzealous, to put a mild descriptor on it.

No one here asked people to pay $60 for a plan based on fraudulent claims by the founder, supported by fraudulent success stories on its splash page and newsletters, and maintained by medical/scientific lies regarding certain metabolic disasters awaiting certain persons doing VLCDieting.

In other words, yes, WE ARE THE GOOD GUYS and, yes, THE LEADERSHIP AT KIMKINS ARE THE BADDIES. And I say it without hesitation. And those who know lies and fraudulent acts have been perpetrated and still keep up the, "We're wonderful, let's just keep going and ignore all that" are part of the Baddie's Brigade, too. Bad guys can't keep going without support.

Do the good guys act 100% diplomatically and tactfully and restrained all the time. No. Good thing, too, or me and my family might still be relegated to second class citizenry and not allowed to eat at all restaurants and enter all hotels. Good thing sometimes good people use harsh terms and raise a mighty stink. In this case, the mighty stink being raised is to keep folks from supporting a con artist and promoting a dangerous WOE.

My white hat is still in place. Or, I should say, my tasteful white diamond tiara.

Oh no Venus. I hope others can tell you how to handle in the most effective way. But can you email the PI that captured the pics of Kimmer and did the blog to ask if he can just point you in the right direction as far as how to monitor the issue. I am sure he has all the inside information.
I don't have his blog handy but it is on the slamboard.

Kat, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. It's always hard to lose a parent.

You can put an alert on your credit and you can also have them have to contact you for verification on large purchases, loans, etc. I had to do this. My information (and many others) was sold by an employee of big financial corp. Do your free credit report from all 3. You can get contact information off the site and call them to see what options you have. I did the alert online. You should be able to set that up tonight. I also pay a little under $5 for them to monitor my report and send me monthly alerts.
Hope this helps

You should contact all 3 Equifax, Transunion and Experian and put a fraud alert on your credit files. (I would freeze them personally.) The fraud doesn't have to have happened yet. There is a real potential.
Make sure that if you use a credit monitoring service that you do not go through a bank or mortgage company as they will sell your info to everyone and anyone.

Well, you were the last to reply so you viewed the last post already. You have to wait for next post and then it will show.

Some of us are just pokey

If you bookmark a page at the end of each day/night/wee hours of the morning, when you click on the next day it'll be there.

Kat I am so sorry for your loss. I truly understand what you are going thru. I lost my dad On february 3rd and it was and still is the hardest thing I have ever been thru. It doesn't matter how old they were they were still our parents and we will always miss them. There isnt a day that goes by that I dont miss my dad terribly. Just hang in there, they say it gets better but so far for me it hasnt yet. If you ever need to talk pm me, I feel your pain.


Good work ladies on finding all those russian women that lost weight on kimkins. Now surely since they are fit and trim they will find husbands, even tho I dont think it has happend for kimmer yet. being that the PI only ever saw her and her son at the apt then NOPE NO HUSBAND FOR THE NOW SLIM KIMMER. I was just in total shock to see how much younger she looked after losing weight. Kind of weird to me when I lost 118 lbs I didnt look 15 years younger and still looked like me. Oh but wait, I didnt use her skin treatments, that must be what the difference is, NOW I UNDERSTAND!
