Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Diabetes / January 2006Diabetes will be hell in thew future
Some of find these diabetes sites and use them for a lark.Others are here because they have sense enough to try to postpone or even avoid the consequences of diabetes. Why don't you come by for a cup of coffee. I am up at 3 AM with problems. I expect to have them as long as I live. My neighbor died last year after a long period of a grossly swollen leg. An older woman we know well had a heart attack a few months ago and was dead as the 911 people arrived. Another one on a weight reduction program had a staple operation, developed an infection that killed him. On and On. A hallmark of diabetes is that typically there is long term lingering suffering. These groups were setup to help diabetes to serve normal people, not the mixed up mentally confused people. It is anarchy but could use a policeman. It does not need those with a kids mentality, yelping like a kicked puppy. Decent people will respect other people and do show some consideration for the many here that do suffer. Your time will come unless there is more progress which is very slow coming. Don't like this--- GOOD. Right now I will be pleased if I fracture the delicate ego of some spoiled brat.. Look MA, I am a computer expert and I run the world. I can throw my weight around. For $500 I can be a wheel. > These groups were setup to help diabetes > to serve normal people, not the mixed > up mentally confused people. As a new user of this group, I am very disappointed in the amount of off- topic stuff that has been posted here since I picked up this group. Honestly, I am not really interested in participating here with such nonsense going on. I am a fan of web based message boards for important topics such as this because they tend to weed out the idiots. If someone wishes to maintain such a board, I would be more than happy to set one up for them. If someone is even willing to register a domain name for this purpose, I would be willing to host it free of charge (or on a donations base from users who enjoy it). No ads, no strings, just serious people who want to discuss a serious conversation about diabetes. I am a type II diabetic and the disease has been very much on my mind these days. I'd like to discuss it. Not sure I want to do it here. Sorry. Bill.

Hey Bill, It is obvious that you are a discerning, very tolerant and intelligent person, just the sort of poster this newsgroup really needs. I am so sorry that you are disappointed, I feel embarassed and humiliated on your behalf. I can only apologize on behalf of the group. If you knew that someone with your sensibiliteis was coming we would have cleaned up our act. f.ck you very much for your thoughtful input. BTW, in case you still haven't figured it out, basically what I am saying is "why don't you go back to your WEB based world, sh.t in your hands and then clap." Idiot!

I'd like to discuss it. Not sure I want to do it here. Sorry. Moderated web-based groups weed out the idiots for you. In unmoderated newsgroups you have to do the weeding yourself. There are plenty of good automated tools to make this easy for you, such as killfiles. It's much easier to learn how to use these tools than learning how to control diabetes. There's a lot of very good information to be found here. As with controlling your diabetes, the big question is can you be bothered?

You don't have to reinvent the wheel. Just look around. But even moderated groups will have off-topic threads at times -- just as in any topic-based community (club), people drift off into non-related conversations from time to time. I believe there are more strictly moderated groups, but they can be *very* strict and you can get banned if the moderator/owner doesn't like what you are saying (even if it is on-topic). I participate in both types of forums, just as I participate in different types of "live" communities. I've learned to cope with both & tune out (filter, killfile, ignore) what I don't want to hear or discuss. bj >> As a new user of this group, I am very disappointed in the amount of off- >> topic stuff that has been posted here since I picked up this group.

Alan, it is doubtful he is looking for a group, rather he wants to sell webhosting, take a look at his google archives. This is the first "different" sales pitch. A slight variation on the spiel is shown between a business ads newsgroup where he claimed adult websites not allowed, in other ng's he says adult websites welcomed. >> These groups were setup to help diabetes >> to serve normal people, not the mixed >> up mentally confused people. > > As a new user of this group, I am very disappointed in the amount of off- > topic stuff that has been posted here since I picked up this group. Not a problem Bill, we'll all shape up or ship out. Thosee who stay will make sure they perform to your unique specification. > Honestly, I am not really interested in participating here with such > nonsense going on. I suppose I *could* say "Well f.ck off" then, but being a pleasant sort of person, I couldn't do that, so I'll leave it for someone else. Someone is SURE to btw.

Guy, I was grumbling to myself when I read your post but I have to say that the thing you do best is to remind us all how serious this disease is. Many of us forget that. Thank you for taking your time to put yourself out there so honestly. |
