Moderator | Arthritis Information

Who is the moderator for this forum? Does anyone know?Bonita, you will find that this board is not really moderated.
The best coarse of action is to ignore or migrate to a board that does not put up with the rubbish that goes on here.

This is by far the most toxic of boards that I have been a member of.

Having said that, a lot of good info can be gleaned through the search function..
yyronbn562011-03-09 20:39:15excellent points, SnowOwl..... so very true!! Oh yes! We love this forum just the way it is! LOL I have all of my friends. I learn new things all of the time.

Oh and it is very entertaining. I would not change a thing. Never a dull moment.

Honestly even strongly monitored forums have the same problems. I know a person that gets kicked off alot of moderated forums. I think he was talking about treating a bad diaper rash and someone said he was nuts. So he went into crazy mode.

He said that he knew the drill when ever one person on a forum says something negative he always ends up getting attacked by the group and gets kicked off. So he just started posting a bunch of nonsence and being very rude. Then he would get kicked off. Then he would go back as a different person. Actually even several different persons.

Sometimes he would just make trouble and sometimes he would just be a new person for awhile to try to talk to people until someone disagreed with him and then he would go into defence mode.

I think maybe sometimes as a new person he would have to wait several days before he could post very much. So maybe it took him longer bother people. Maybe some of his post got taken down sooner? He usually had a way of getting new ones up by the time they had taken the others down.

The problem is that people tend to disagree on many subjects. It is not a perfect world. Everyone wants to be liked. Everyone wants others to agree with them.

Scince this is not a moderated forum then you would think people would be less offensive as they would not just get kicked off for having an opinion. Still some people are mad because they want someone kicked off and they can not get thier way. So they get mad that the forum is not moderated.

That is we have one member that historically people do not like. I do not really understand why they do not like him but they just do not. So people go to alot of trouble trying to get rid of him. He our friend and that makes people mad sometimes.

Honestly the way I look at it is that it is not my forum. The owner of the forum can run it the way he sees fit.

Milly,

This is our forum. It is the best forum on the internet. This is our family and what a wonderful family it is. Practically each and every member brings me joy, and happiness and tears. I read each and every journey sometimes with tears in my eyes. The pains and tribulations that some of our wonderful family has to endure is heartbreaking. Toxic? Don't get me started Bodak. You, are a part of a crew. We, are family.

if we're so toxic why do you choose to hang with us?
Snow winter is a thing of the past for me. The ten day forcast is completely above freezing even at night. We had a bitter cold front for the past few days but it is over and done.

So temps will be between 42 and sixty no more shoveling snow for awhile. That is I think the warmer weather will take me into March and I can start worring about tornadoes instead of ice storms.

Am I feelling better. Yes alot better. Still on abx. I do have toothach and see the dentist on the 24th. So that is longer than I would like wait. Everyone else is sick now. Arghh! Well my sinuses will be well cleaned out so if I do get sick again I think it would not be as bad. If my tooth is causing part of this well then that will come to an end soon also.

Lev you are just such a nice a guy. I am glad you are a part of this forum. The reason this forum works for us is that we really truely care about one another. We support each other and pray for one another. We share our experiences.
