New MTs Forum - Are they getting rid of it?

Posted: Nov 05, 2012

I haven't seen any notes lately on the New MTs forum, but it's still "there." Does anyone know if they're getting rid of it, or is something funny on my end? Been this way for quite some time.

Hi. I'm a new MT. I haven't posted on the New MT forum because I'm in Canada and not doing US work. I just felt the New MT forum was meant to be for US MTs.

But if you are having success posting in the other forums, you may not need to post there.

That is strange. Newbies warned against this forum? - Moved to a new website? Broke?

I take it this is for new MTs, not a new forum for existing MTs? - Angie

If they are warned against this site, it must be from an MTSO, as all the messages to newbies on this forum that I have seen have been perfectly accurate. I guess the MTSOs who run the MT schools have a lot to lose in having prospective students be given the courtesy of the truth about where the profession has gone and will continue to go. I'd like to know who is behind it.

Don't Know What Happened - but...

...all I know is that the forum titled "New MTs" here on mtstars has no notes anymore. It used to be swamped. I don't know that it was "warned against." Mtstars has the right to close a forum. I don't know if anyone has tried to post there or not.

It is very true we are not to discourage newbies, so maybe it's not considered a useful forum anymore.

pretty much the same thing with Offshore Concerns, - and no archived posts available.

I've been approached by a local physician to take over his transcription. He dictates from home right now, into his computer. I think maybe with EMDAT? My guess would be that the voice files are created and held somewhere, and his current company/transcriptionist goes in and gets them and somehow transcribes and sends them back via the computer. Anyway, I've been out of the loop for long enough that I'm searching for a low cost, easy way to get his files to ...

The people on this coding forum are so pleasant and helpful. If someone gets cranky, it only seems to last for a minute and, unlike many other forums, people don't jump in and start battles. Also, people don't seem to get so defensive or take things personally the way they do in other places. There is an enormous amount of helpful information here and we get to see more than one side of everything, without battles. People respect each other's opinions even when they disagree. Thi ...

I always held myself back from posting. I guess I'm "secretly afraid" that "spooks" are roaming around on the this Board, and if you say "enough" they'll find out who you are via technological "magic" which I don't really understand. But, as I said a post or so back, "I Hit Some Kind of a Wall." The need to vent has overcome the need to exercise wisdom. And besides, I'm looking or another job and at least I live in a big city that has a lot of data entry a ...

When reading this forum or when on ANY Internet site, if you are having trouble because the print is too small, hold down your Ctrl key while using the scroll on the mouse. Moving the mouse "wheel" up will enlarge the print; moving the mouse wheel down will make it smaller. This pretty much works on anything except for e-mails. Don't forget to keep the Ctrl key held down while you are doing this. ...
