But don't forget tone is hard to read online. Some members don't like to use softy words and emoticons and write 'hugs'. Which is fair enough. But we can't say they're not being sympathetic for writing tithe point. It has to be a two way thing between sensitive members needing sensitive typing, and acknowledgement from them than peep replying with practical advice are not being 'harsh'.
If I were to be honest I would propose for vets, this:
Scrap them both and make a new 'adult life issues' style section for general advice on more adult issues.
I don't see the need for a section for older members to post about SI or ED or MH stuff outside f the specific support forums but do see the need and benefit of a section for 'life' advice for older people
