Update for last time

[capricorn]

Sparkey......sorry I can't answer your question. I don't remember either.


Jayne and Sithie........1st I would like to say thanks for letting us know what exactly is going on with imsickofit. I figured the lack of meds had set withdrawal in. Very dangerous. Nasty IC>

Jayne ...thank you for explaining that all has been tried. I luckily have never reached the end of aid that is out there and through conversations with our friend, which have mostly been about him and his dad, the subject never came up about exhausting all help that's out there. I guess him and I shared but not with his 100% trust of me. Thank God he is in the hospital. He will get help and God willing some wonderful DR. will stick by his side as far as why he ended up there and aid his fight with the IC. I wish him nothing but peace and relief from his pain. I will pray for him as I always do. I don't know if there's anything else I can do to help.
Now know that I have sent huge hugs your way. You and your daughter hold onto each other and enjoy. We will all be praying for her safety.

God bless,
CAP

I also had a question about when I first came onto this site I do not remember reading anything that tells you the rules and regulations of this site and anything that you had to agree with/sign etc. Is there something I missed on this site before I became a member?

Imsckofits threat of suicide is not the reason for his ban. It was a "cumulative" decision. If you are looking to the above for direct linkage, look to item 6 (Multiple consecutive posts - which in effect is what we have with his "This is private, look elsewhere" posts). Also look to the phrase "you will not post any material which is knowingly false, inaccurate, abusive,". Obviously he was not killed in a car accident as previously posted, so that is part of the "cumulative" effect I spoke of.

I suppose I should shed a little light to the "off board" issue we had. Imsckofit tried two times to change his email address on record to fake email addresses. This system requires a valid email address. Otherwise it would QUICKLY be overrun by spammers. When you attempt to change your address, the system will email a new activation link to the new address to verify it is valid. In this case, since fake addresses were used, we received all bounce notifications. In one of those cases, he used a fake address but an apparently real domain (it was "upyours@a-real-domain.com". Obviously I am hiding the real domain, but we took offense, since it acted as a complete phrase. He just hit an active domain name by accident. The other address was also a physically impossible suggestion).

It appears that our activation notice hit an autoresponder at "a-real-domain.com", and they got stuck in what is generally known as a "loop", repeatedly emailing each other, each email kicking off a response, and subsequent failure notice. The net result is we received HUNDREDS of automated emails as a result of this deception before we could intervene and shut it down.

Now that was a fluke, and he did not intend that to happen, but lets face it, we offer a free service here and there is a limit to my hand holding patience.

Hope that answers some of your questions.
