Well, there is thishttps://www.england.nhs.uk/diabetes/
Really?? Why bother to moderate language with images like this? (Or is it just me, older and grumpier than ever)?

I think the picture has changed.. if I recall it was originally two fairly obviously overweight people @Grumpy ole thing your email (and probably those of a few others) may have had an effect!.Ok what’s wrong with the picture ?? Am not seeing why you think this image is bad ?
@Grumpy ole thing Read my post as i'm thinking of ridding myself of this forum because of what you have posted..Your a winner in my books. I haven't had much support anyway, but the little i have had i am sooo very grateful for.https://www.england.nhs.uk/diabetes/

No @Moggely, Finding the right word to expres emotion is difficult enough without having swearing 'excommunicated". I have resolved myself to using a Thesaurus to find a slightly less objectionable word whilst skating the rim of the sin bin as it were !!I personally think it's a little much with the moderation thing. I actually used the word HELL and was dismissed... Please.. That"s a little over the top. My personal opinion only. Also i have never been someone that swears or disrespected anyone in my life. I am 64...Also a little sick of this politic correct business and just means to me you have to make everyone feel good. Feel free to get rid of me.
You are entitled to an opinion and to highlight what you perceive as a deficiency, drawback or fault.Oh i meant to add until they do get rid of me i will always speak my mind. The people in here, that have been in here probably for years don't appear to me very helpful of us new people. I have seen many newbie's comment totally ignored. Once again just my opinion.

@Guzzler i simply used the word hell????. But thank you for your support because, besides you, there were few others except in the forum( what are you blood glucose levels) They are humble people. Perhaps everyone could learn from them.All the moderators are volunteer staff members, they give of their time and effort freely. Members are free to give of their time or not and the same applies to advice and support. There is no obligation wrt membership that requires that particular members (no matter how long or short their membership has been) answer all and every query. I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the level of support you have received. As to language moderation this has to be viewed with a nod to being even handed with an atmosphere that doesn't descend to that seen on other social media platforms.
With regard to moderation on this particular thread, perhaps you did not see the image in question and the reason for that moderation has not become clear, yet. There is a reason that the forum has rules and these are by no means arbitrary.

I don't understand why you feel this way.@kitedoc i and many others like me are not entitled to an opinion.
