Thank you for your advice, Rita. It’s much appreciated. Those are good thoughts. I think I’ve figured out how to make a list of people to ping now. Maybe not the way others do it, but will work on this computer.
Just message out a few times, asking who wants on your ping list, maybe start with this thread. Also, you can inquire of the Admin Moderator about any rules.
Just stick 3 or 4 names, like mine, in your “TO:” box on stories related to immigration or anchor babies, and you could even post your own report up, in what’s called a “Vanity” thread. You just type “Vanity” after the headline you choose to give it, then find and fill out the “POST” page, to publish it on the main “Forum”.
I didn’t realize you are new to the site, but you will pick it up fast. Look over the page called “POST”, on your cross bar, at the top of the thread page here, and see what you think.
Thanks, KG! Rita

Just stick 3 or 4 names, like mine, in your “TO:” box just like you did here to me. Separate the names by a SEMI-colon. When you see a story you like, ping us over to you, by adding our names to one of your own comments on the story’s thread, related to immigration or anchor babies.
