Dear Members,

I have been receiving additional emails from a potential member named
VARIAN asking about membership. I stated before that he's been
trying to join this group for years and that he's "bizarre" but then
after I explained why he won't be approved, I got two more emails
from him today that says "Please let me join, I'm not bizarre". So,
obviously someone feels compelled to communicate with this person
even after I've already explained the reasons why he won't be
approved. Continuing to communicate with him is up to the member(s)
but since those actions are resulting in him sending *me* additional
emails on a daily basis, then I'm asking that whoever is forwarding
the messages from this group to him be more mindful of their actions.

Just to give you all a glimpse in to the some of the messages that I
get as the moderator, here are some of the messages that came along
with membership requests for the last few weeks:

-I love braces

-I'm a cheerleader with braces that loves facials

-Adults with braces are so nice!!!

-Hi, My name is X. I am 29 years old and am getting braces next week.
I have a lot of questions about braces. (this person has
been "getting braces" for about three plus years now).

So, I said all that to say that, as the owner/moderator, it's my job
to keep this place free of people that "love braces" for all the
wrong reasons. We've had a lot of problems with people trying to
join this group in the past for subversive reasons and that is not
the purpose of this group. There are plenty of other groups out
there for people like that to join. So, if anyone contacts you
regarding membership, just don't respond or you can email me or tell
them to email the owner of the group.

Thanks,
Regina*
Owner/Moderator
