i am just too upset at the moment to post anymore.some horrible folk have driven the passing through site off the web.jackie is closing it down.i and others are going to be so upset by this?why cant jealous folk leave things alone.i thought you would all like to know whats happening.copy your research notes from there folks a.s.a.p.i dont think we can change her mind this time.can anyone else take it on?

Its a shame as Jackie has provided a good source of help for others and all for free i for one would like to thank her for all her good work and for all the other folk who contributed records via Jackies site  , as Jackie has posted it was not any action by any
one or individuals just a general descision she had come too so its a relief to know that it was not some kind of vendetta by  anyone against anything Romany etc.

obviously we are not going to go into long discussions here aboutpassing through.so i am posting jackies own words for folk to make up their pown minds,

Gypsies Passing Through
I have asked wetpaint to delete this site - therefore if you want any information that is on here please make sure you back it up asap. I don't know how long the site will remain up.

I started the site to help people and I am sick and tired of a few manipulative and selfish people affecting the experiences of everyone else.

Please do not contact me about this - I am not prepared to discuss it and I am giving up sharing any information I find - life is too short to get the amount of hassle I have since starting this site.

I wish you all luck with your research, but frankly, I will be pleased to be out of it

Jackie


i am sure we all thank jackie and wish her the very best in life possible.she has been such a help to many of us.

also has my scavenger hunt ends today i want to thank you all very very much indeed for all your hard work.it wasnt an easy one as we already had the easy answers and were looking for the odds and ends to tie it together.i am sure taylor researchers have got alot of extra in fo from this hunt.i know i have.just got to work my way through it now.

THANKYOU TO EVERYONE THAT HAS HELPED.YOU HAVE BEEN GREAT.
OF COURSE IF YOU FIND ANYTHING ELSE JUST ADD IT WE WILL STILL BE KEEPING AN EYE ON IT FOR A WHILE.CATHAYB

Jackie also posted this so as to clear any confusion that may have been caused .

RE: Jackie blackman
Yesterday, 2:18 PM EST

"it seems like the same folk who have been attacking my site and some other gypsy based sites have got to jackie at last and she feels she can carry on no longer with the gypsies passingthrough site.you will i know join with me in wishing her all the very best in the future.she has been a star with a capital S.the rest of us will have to meet over on rootschat in the general room for travellers and carry on our research.its is so sad.someof us are still running sites and are not going to be beaten if we can possibly help it.i thought i should let you all know incase you havent been on her board today as you are my dear friends and i hope we will keep in contact one way or another.there is another very good board started but it is also under attack so dont know how long it will last either but there is a famly history section on it.if you care to try it.

"This has nothing to do with anyone who is attacking your site Cathay. It is the low level unpleasantness which has been going on right from the start. I'm just fed up with it I do not want to turn this into more than it is - I don't know what is happening on other sites and I don't really care to be honest. No one has "got" to me - I'm just fed up. Please don't assume things and then write as though they are the truth - so to repeat in case anyone isn't sure - this is not part of some vendetta against Gypsy sites, it's a few people who like to pregnant dog about others and I'm the sort of person who runs out of patience with it."
Just thought I would let folks know as there has been too much "assuming" going on .

Cathay, as you're still getting information on your Hunt, I've started a new (continuing) thread for you.

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,347949.0.html

As this one is on page 21 I'll lock it now.
