Re: New to the scene - Observing, Learning, Impressed!
It's honourable you're doing this for your buddy and for his widow, and it's also great to hear you're enjoying learning about the world of dolls. I hope you do stick around and hang out with us.
This part confuses me. Since the above seems to be your very first post, at least with the 'forhiswidow' account. Did you sign in with your friend's account last week? Just trying to keep track of accounts, as only one regular account is allowed per member.forhiswidow wrote:I first posted a plea for advice last week, and shared story of how I ended up finding and signing on to this dreamy place.

Now I'm confused. How do doll accounts work? Are there AI dolls now?? They put their owner/man in the box or closet and then let loose on TDF? LOL just kidding around!!Seattle Slew wrote:Hi forhiswidow.. Welcome To The Doll Forums <---(click for some welcome-wagon spam)

Re: New to the scene - Observing, Learning, Impressed!
Hey thanks, but I'm still confused. You said you posted last week, but with what account? Can you remember the username for that account? Or any details from the post, like the subject title?forhiswidow wrote:no. forhiswidow is the account /username "I" created to help her. I'm a bit unsavvy on how to locate that one, but it was the only one prior to this one. .
Anyhow, this is not a huge deal or anything as you clearly aren't intending to use two accounts here for subterfuge. I just like to dot my t's and cross my eyes...

And if so, what was the username you used?

"...You have received a new private message from "JC22" to your account on "The
Doll Forum" with the following subject:
Selling ther doll
So, this was what I sent:
First post. 2122 hrs, Feb 12th 2018:
New here. The Not-So-Short:. A U.S. Army Veteran (retired also) friend of mine died in 2016, in-expectantly, and his widow finally brought it out that he had ordered this Doll not long before he died. She is finally getting through her grieving and I've been asked to come up with options for this beautiful doll. I assured her it was such an honor that she came to me and that I appreciated her putting her trust in me with this request. The doll is incredible! I've never seen these before in real life. Just....incredible and so detailed and... "real". Anyhow, all I have are a few snap shots from my cell, of the upper torso sitting on the small couch he had in his "private room", but ok, here I am, and I need some guidance. Good guidance, and advice of course on how to avoid being taken for a fool. I'm treading as lightly as I can, I suppose and want to do the best thing, but this is new. If only to put me in the right direction, I'd be greatly appreciative. I JUST registered to get onto this site, solely for this purpose, and "wow", did not realize such a world existed. Ok, sorry for the dark part of this (death), but can someone please tell me the best way ahead with selling this beautiful doll? Proceeds are of course, to the widow. The Doll is in San Antonio, Texas. Thank you (its getting late, so I likely will post this and head off to sleep. Up and out at 530 each morning. Will check again sometime tomorrow afternoon, or evening). (I read something earlier about not mentioning name brands, etc... so, first just hit me back with some initial guidance. Wrong type of forum, just let me know... Thnx!)
Does this help? I don't wish to jack up my ability to be part of this site/forum. THanks Tom

Don't worry Tom, your membership and posting freedom is not in jeopardy here. I'm merely confused by your statements and am trying to figure out if there's a second account made by you, which I need to deactivate.forhiswidow wrote:Does this help?

Now that you have 5 posts, you and I can exchange private messages. We'll get it sorted out and then I can stop badgering you.

Aha! I think it's your patience which deserves recognition, not mine.forhiswidow wrote:Patience is much appreciated!
Thanks for going around in a circle with me for a minute.
