Wow, I tried to join another Lyme board, wanting to see what is out there. I got this as a reply. I find it absolutely horrible. Anyone have any idea what its all about?

I know nothing about them, but I did look at the sit e and there is a link to email them if you have a problem. It has a gmail address.
I would suggest you try emailing that address and ask for an explanation. That does not sound like a site I would want to be on, but if you know of others who use it and have not had problems then it may be worth pursuing.

Sheesh!! I think most of the Lyme patients who use that board also have Morgellons. So if you don't have that, maybe THIS is the place for YOU!! Posted by Lisianthus (Member # 6631) on :
It says on their website:
"Please email Lymebusters if you are rejected by Proboards and need assistance"
So maybe they are having some kind of difficulty. I would email them.

I'm pretty certain this is the place for me! I was just poking around other places. I can't believe anyone would behave like that, how do you find members then? I will refrain from entering profanities here!

You should email them. It's possible their host board has a virus or something and they don't realize people are being rejected.

Jedibelle -
I poked around there, and even joined several months ago with no problem.
That just doesn't sound like the owners or moderators of that board.
I agree that it must be some kind of virus. It would be helpful for them if you let them know what you received as a reply. There's probably a lot of Lyme/Morgellon's people that could benefit from their support.
That reply is very hurtful, and an emotionally sensitive person - desperate for support - probably couldn't handle that type of rejection.
I say...email the moderators! Not necessarily for YOUR sake, but for someone else's!
Just my 2 cents!
Hugs & Kisses,

I checked it out. It is not a virus, rather someone decided that they did not like the domain for my email address. I have been invited to register again but I am not sure that I want to get involved with a place that would send a reply to me like "Go Away" without further explanation. Leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
