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!!

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.

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.
