Hi LymeNet Users,
[hi]

It is the opinion of some LymeNet Flash users that there are too many non-medical posts in Medical Questions Forum.

I have reviewed, finding there are some non-medical Topics being posted, moved those Topics to the appropriate Forum and notified the users. I did not find this to be a pervasive problem but there are a number of occurrences.

I'm asking all LymeNet Flash users to author Topics in the appropriate Forum.

Thanks,

Thanks, Lou. It seems that everyday we have at least one new thread that is not anywhere near a Medical Question. We appreciate your diligence.

Hey there, Hi there, Ho there LymeNet Users, [hi]

There's a lot of dialogue goin' on in the other Forums ... the world doesn't exist totally in the Medical Questions forum.

Sometimes we need to communicate and support / help one another in the General Support forum and I am 100% in favor of using that forum for that purpose.

Bottom line ... the Medical Questions forum is specifically for Medical Questions but, if you need support or simply a shoulder to lean on, please post it in the General Support forum.

The Medical Questions forum should not be a dumping ground for all discussions related to Lyme and other tick borne diseases. [tsk]

Got it ... get it... do you understand?

Thank you.
I don't understand why the Activism forum is empty! Also, is there a way to get the email link option back? Private messages fill up so fast? Ok, thank you! [Smile]

Lou, it "bugs" me that so many advocacy topics are in the medical forum. I know this application inside & out -- can I help manage the forums by keeping topics in their appropriate place?
