I Hate Dialysis Message Board

I need your help. Lets get the word out about this site. We can make this site great if you do the following, tell your fellow patients, post the link on other dialysis message boards. If your worried about posting on other dialysis message boards then send Private messages to (PM's) to the members you know.
It is my goal to make this place a top ranking on "Google" (first page) when someone goes to google and types dialysis I want this place to be in the first page of listings and it can be done but only with your help.
Please reply here if you have posted to other boards and tell us what boards you posted to so we can go there and bump the thread with a reply.
I am not making ANY money on this site, and have no intentions of ever doing so. I just want this site to be the place where people can come for the truth about dialysis and share their stories and not have their posts edited by admins or moderators.

Come on guys where you at? Put this site in your signature lines of other sites. By doing so it will help let others know about our site and help us move up in the ranks of google.

I want to know if I can change my name. I was stupid and used my real name so I don't want to tell ANYONE about this site because they can read my thoughts. ::) Darla from Sacramento..... Okay now everyone knows~ How can I start over?

I sent you a PM.

I tell everyone I know about this site. I even told a patient who was in the dialysis unit and had his access for half an hour about it! His girlfriend was grateful. I hope they looked it up.

My signature on other forums are to the max character limit sorry. And in the D&T City forums where you found me there are no signatures there. But don't worry Epoman. I took it upon myself to add your site to the list of links in the D&T City Link section (http://groups.msn.com/DialysisTransplantCity/links.msnw?action=view_list&viewtype=0&row=45). Hope you appreciate that gesture.

Sure, not a problem. I will add your link next time I update my links section.

UPDATE! >:( I'm going to ask that you remove that really rude comment on the link:
Created by a Dialysis Patient who is an advocate for freedom of speech for patients. A site FOR patients BY patients. If you post in his forums just make sure to check your spelling!
You may think it's funny, but I find that very disrespectful. You have known this site for less than 36 hours and you and your boyfriend already are talking shit. I am refering to his post telling me to ease up.
- Epoman
UPDATE2!
Nevermind I updated it myself. I changed the link. If you change it to say something smart-ass again I will talk to Joe Atkins.

I thought I was being helpful to help people not make mistakes. When I first posted I didn't even notice the Spell Check. You seem to work so hard spending so much time getting people to spell check I thought I would say that. Sorry if you took it as me being rude. That was not my intent and I apologize for any misunderstanding.
I am glad you edited it yourself because that way it says exactly what you want it to say. That is best. Please feel free to update it at any time. I didn't mean to be a "smart ass" ... I don't mean to be. I guess I am one if you say so. Sorry.

Apology, accepted. But try to understand after I read what your boyfriend wrote in the other thread about the spelling, then I saw what you wrote, I got upset. I don't spend alot of time getting people to spell check, I just have that one thread. But I do spend alot of my time defending my actions such as I had to explain to your boyfriend about him telling me to ease up. I am sorry to, you say you were not being a smart-ass and I believe you. :)

I think it is just that my boyfriend and I worry that we may end up getting banned if we make spelling mistakes .. which is a HUGE worry on our part because we are both dyslexic. We will try our best but I know after reading .. I became extremely intimidated and was unsure if I should post anymore. I would like to but .. I worry ... I mean ... about how to spell .. about how I word things .. about saying things wrong. I don't mean to upset you .. but all my life I have felt I could do nothing right and have upset people easily despite my attempts to simply fit in. I was always the sick one who didn't know how to get along with others since the first 16 years of my life I was extremely anti-social and felt that when I finally had my first transplant like I had just awoken from a dream-like state. (I was lethargic for the first 16 years of my life and had a hard time concentrating and had very little energy to make friends). The first friends I ever made had made a habit of punishing me whenever I upset them.. so please forgive me if I get defensive as well.
I really don't mean to ever upset you. Please realize I don't come here to cause problems. I have always asked my friends to please be extra understanding when it comes to me. I hope you will understand that as well. Infact I think this is great to have a place where I can finally gripe about how I feel. But then ... after the excitement I felt .. then I felt insecure about if I could really speak my mind here at all. Sorry. It is just how I feel. I hope that does not upset you at all.

Well don't worry you won't get banned. I will say it again for the 10th time, as long as you TRY, that is all I am asking of anybody. Just try! In fact this post for example looks PERFECT to me. I want you to feel secure with this site, don't worry everything will work out. I want you to speak you mind here but remember I speak my mind to. ;) So enjoy the site and let's move on and forget about the last few posts. :)
