Re: [rosacea] Here's how I got my rosacea under control


Hi David.

First of all, please let me say that like most members of this group, I have
the greatest respect and admiration for you and for the years of selfless
work that have gone into providing us with this wonderful board. Most of us
would find the struggle against rosacea very much harder without your help,
and that of our dear Matija.

However (yes, there is always a "however"! ;) I was surprised by your
message complaining about the post by Grubber1. Yes, it is terrible when
people "advocate dangerous treatments that they should know better about,
and can be devastating to peoples' rosacea". Of course it is irresponsible
to say "these may be harmful, just for your info".

Your anger is understandable, but why respond by "being extra polite"?
Honestly, who will benefit from that?

It's good that you've posted a warning, saying: "Please, everyone keep away
from these chemicals", but if it's a bad thing to submit irresponsible
posts, isn't it even worse to accept them? Why are posts advocating such
treatments accepted onto this board?

We know you don't like banning people or removing posts, but there are other
rosacea groups where Grubber1's dangerous message would be right at home.
PLEASE be a bit tougher next time.

Kind regards,

Aurelia

Thanks Aurelia, I do prefer to be hands off and to prove that this board really isn't about the moderators. We do reject a few posts every now and then, mostly...
