Complaints

Hi Sue

I reckon I know the board you are talking about and they have quite nasty about me - I am the ultimately stupid dietitian - nasty people I think!

Ally

Well that is outrageous and reminds me of school playgrounds where I was just as guilty of slaggin off old friends to new ones...I was 6 at the time and have learnt since then.....it does show that these people do not have the foggiest idea of problem solving.

But you know its sad to say that some people, when they feel out of their depth or inferior in any way on an issue they tend to not address their own shortcomings and instead they lash out at other people and use it as smoke screen, it makes them feel better.

I pity these people and wonder what they think that they are achieving by doing this, its of no benefit to anyone at all, neither in this or any other forum; perhaps they are angry for failing to successfully address their issues and some people tend to forget that there is a real person sitting at the other end of this line, a nice and helpful, caring one at that.

Sorry Sue and Ally that you have to experience this, I think the majority of people in this forum are grateful for your help and support (even if we dont always agree on some issues, but thats no bad thing, we are not sheep to follow everyone else, what we end up doing is our choice, doctors/your/my word is not gospel) there is no need to **** anyone off at all.

All the best and thanks

Karen

I must be a major innocent. I haven't come across any of this. Still I'd not be rude about anyone (except the local consultant diabetologist)

oh???
who? where?? what??

do you have a URL where we can go see this other forum?

thanks!

ok, interesting

i belong to a number of diabetes forums, so i was curious as to which one i missed

I don't think I could find time to join any other forums. Hubby thinks I hog the computer too much as it is! :lol:

i hope the Mods have sent a PM to the individuals concerned in this 'sitation'

it's not very comfortable posting here, wondering who 'they' are, that are going to criticise us publically in another forum

I think your brill Sue, so don't let em get u down. Iv'e looked at other forums, but stick with this one it's the best!!!!! I know u considered it closed but I don't come on till late/early so I missed it :lol:

Why was the matter opened? You might not like what some are saying elsewhere but Individuals are and, on the Internet, should remain free to express opinions. Censorship in any guise is to be deplored.

I don't necessarily agree with a lot of what I read on this forum but I am happy that individuals can freely express their views. If you don't like criticism, don't post. Kitchen and heat come to mind.

To all you hard working moderators,

I owe a debt of gratitude to all of you who put so much of your time and effort into running this forum which is by far the best, the most informative and generally the most friendly. So please stick with it and ignore this vindictive jealousy.

Thank you Sue for bringing this out in the open as it was done to reassure us all that if there is a problem the moderators will do their best to help sort out any issues.

There should be no rivalry between different diabetes forums, people should and do feel free to post what they want as long as it is diabetes related of course - but please everyone do remember that moderators are human beings with feelings too and slagging them off in another forum is just undermining them and solves nothing.

Good that these posts have been deleted, and I hope this kind of thing will not be repeated.

Karen

Get real. What prevents you from accessing the other site and expressing your opinion/redressing any adverse remarks? No need at all to raise the issue on this forum - unless of course you want to stop the individuals posting.
