Title: Did not mean to offend...
Post by: kidney4traci on February 25, 2008, 03:11:10 PM
...or advertise by posting my husband's websight.  I feel it is part of my calling to talk about chiropractic and the benefits of it over and above back pain.  We have just gotten a web site and it has so many links about health that I was excited and just wanted to share it with you.  I never intended to make it about trying to push him on you, and I don't get anything from it if you went to call the number for another dc in your area.  I usually try to dance around it here and have never meant to offend anyone by posting.  I respect this site and those that get to come here.  Many of you have spoken to me directly or indirectly by your postings here.  I go through my days more and more lately remembering you all.  I am not the type of person to casually offend and blow it off, so the fact that I caused complaints does bother me.  I hope this helps to settle my intentions and you see my remorse.  Thanks.  :banghead;

We all have different views on everything. We do what works best for us. Information is always a good thing and people can do with it how they wish.  If people are offended, then they can choose not to go to the website.  Seems simple to me.

No offense here, I'm glad you did, I found I COULD have treatments done while on dialysis.

Thank YOU!!! 

As mentioned, if someone doesn't want to read something,they won't click on it.

Didn't offend me, as others have said if we don't want to look at the website we don't have to.  I can understand those who perhaps thought it was advertising and felt it inappropriate, but I know you were only doing it through good intentions. :)

It was brought to my attention and I gave it a lot of thought. When Epoman was still with us he only did away with them because if everyone who had someone in business came here to sell a product or service the site would be cluttered with those kind of posts.

Although I don't feel that Traci's post fell into that category, I had to look at it from that point of view.  Maybe someday we will have a section for that type of content. If you want to see the post it is in the archives in the premium member section. I'm not sure if premium members can see it or just the Admins and Mods, but that is where it went.

Sorry Traci.

That brings up another question - how do you get to change your membership?

kidney4traci -- if you haven't checked into becoming a Premium Member, you should!!!!  Last week, I made Sluff twist my arm until I sent in my dues to become a Premium Member, and it's great!  The best thing about it is that I'm doing a small part to help keep this site going.

Sluff, you were Epoman's right arm and we trust you to run the site exactly as he would have.  He wouldn't have given you control if he didn't think you would keep the site a safe place for us to come.  I have said it many times, but again, thank you for all the time and love you give us :grouphug;
