Member Approvals

Dear Sovoto Members,As of today we will be trying a new experiment and approving our members before joining. Unfortunately, this is due to an overwhelming amount of spammers joining the network. We will try it just as a trial for the time being. Members will usually be approved either immediately, or within a few hours - at most 24 hours. This will not prohibit public information from being viewed. Please let me know if this will be a problem for anyone - it very simple to revert back to the…See More

I've been doing really well with my VT! I originally wanted to find people that could give me some tips and tricks, but I have found that I really enjoy meetings other people with strabismus. I don't know why, but it's great to know others like me :-)

 

Thanks again for this wonderful site, which allows us to network and connect! I appreciate this a lot!

Hi, Becca. I am having a problem in that my inbox claims I have one new e-mail in my inbox despite the fact that I have marked the e-mail as "read." Any suggestions?
