Does Guard your Eyes have a position on Out of Town Sponsors?

I have made a strong kesher with a participant from NJ and I live in TX.  We have been working the steps almost everyday and making real progress.

Yet, there are those in his local SA Group that are telling him he should have an "in-town" sponsor.  I personally have sponsored a number of people by phone and even those sponsees of mine that live in my city do most of our work over the phone.

What do you think?

Thanks
DuvidChaim

I don't know what it all entails though so I need it explained before I can fully sign on.

I realize this is not responsive to the original question but I'm from NJ too.  I'd be happy to sponsor but prefer e-mail to phone since I'm at work most of the day and phone conversations carry pretty easily.

I believe an out of town sponsor may be better in a way because i can be more open to them  knowingly that their far away from me or don't  know me personally.

Someone who knows you personally is always a better option when possible, since there's an added element of accountability. But for a sponsor like Duvid Chaim, I'd pick an out-of-town sponsor any day!

                      Wanted to install k9, but too confused or embarrassed to ask for help?
                                        Here is the answer to your prayers.......

                        I've discovered the greatest way to spread k9 web protection
                                easily, without embarrassment and for FREE!!!!!!!
                  Using a special, easily installed, free program called crossloop, I (or anyone in the forum for                                                                    that matter) can help install, make a password or alter k9 web protection.

I myself am more than willing to help anyone who wants this set up. I'm frequently online so I make a great partner to help others who need it to be bypassed. I check my mail frequently and am more than willing to help anyone who wants it set up.

Basically, all you do is download the program. E-mail me about what time you want it installed and we'll meet on the website together.


                                Easy, no?

The website is called www.crossloop.com/ipage.htm?id=predownload
My email is extraemail564@gmail.com

Feel free to visit my website helpmestop.weebly.com to other tips, advice and support.

I have much experience with k9, its settings and how people usually fall with it. I am happy to give recommendations in terms of settings to all who seek them.

I love GYE and couldn't thank them enough. That is why I feel such a strong need to give back and what better way than spreading k9?!!!!!!!!!!

Give it a try why wouldn't you? ??? ??? ???
