    Yesterday, I copied the needymed thing sent a pm to the mods

     SAS "Hi Mods, would like to have permission to spam the below post. I'm okay if you say no, I understand. For now, I am reposting to my usual places.(bolding added for emphasis, I stated my intent in first post)

    I have the original post stored on Insomnia thread. :) thanks

    MODS-"Hi, 

    Well, instead of "spamming" it on the boards, you could add it under recommended resources. 

    However, I tried to check them out, and when I click on your link, this is what I get, and it doesn't seem correct:"

    SAS- correction of url can't find ( not cogent to discussion)

    mods:

    Hello sas-schatzi:

    We did say that you shouldn't spam this message, but should instead include it under Recommend Your Resources. We see that you have spammed your post on 18 different threads, and that is considered spamming, however good your intentions. We are removing all the posts but those on Insomniacs and Recommend Your Resources. 

    Please do not spam again.

    SAS Ya know that wasn't nice, or well thought out.

     

    from sas-schatzi     13 hours ago    

    Of the 18 threads that you said you were going to erase my post. Five are my topic threads. A sixth is a storage thread. So, 6 of 18 are my threads. Plus, Insomnia makes a seventh, but you said you were leaving that. The rest twelve(11),  I post on either frequently or infrequently.  Sheila

    from sas-schatzi     12 hours ago    

    Melissa My guess is you will have a meeting about this tomorrow 5/16. You deleted my post on needy meds .com from all my threads, and the threads I frequently and infrequently post on. People are asking already why?  I'll give it a couple of days before I explain why the deletes are there. Thanks Sheila

    ---------------------------------------

    5/16/2014

    1. I said I was going to post on my regular threads in the first post

    2. I did post on my regular threads, but only a portion of them

    3. the mods deleted 5 post from topic threads that I started. I Routinely post whatever additional info on those threads that I want.

    4.The 11-12 other threads that I'm a frequent user  or an infrequent user. I have posted similar interested item on these threads i.e.Knitted knocker, AARP blurb on medication errors, Chemo/anesthesia/ pain med brain notice of members absence do to injury.

    5. Not a single post was placed on a thread that was not on my topics list

    6. I did spam "meaning placing a post on threads I had not been on", in Feb re:2d6 and  genetics. That spamming was to reach people in treatment. I also, placed it on my regular threads. That generated 3,458 viewings.

    that's the summary;

    I do respectfully request that the post be placed back in their original locations. This is based on the fact that they are regular usage threads. If you limit me on amount of threads I can post on, that opens a can of worms. Many on BCO have long list of areas they post.

    My request to spam was to post on many threads that I'm not a regular poster.

    Oh SASS!  Ah geez!  Oh just please don't get into any TRUBBLE!    I don't think I would argue or "take to task" ANYone.... unless I maybe owned this whole organization, then I would  maybe reluctantly sort of "mention" my feelings.... 

    So what else is new?  I'm afraid of confrontations....  La, la..

    OMG_OMG I'm so far behind I read then skimmed a little and read somemore-- So much is happening and I an only remember even less., like everyone else. Some admit it some don't.

    Well first Jwow I love what u'r friend has done it must take a lot of patience, how long does it last? It's so unique and such a conversational head.Very clever.

    I feel so bad with all the pain that is happening to everyone and so much confusion. I think when everything is basic the Drs. follow protocol but if it all veers off they  are kind of lost. I don't know how to keep track of everyone so that ;s why when I get to the end I'm lost

    I certainly love all the pic. the flashbacks and the rest.

    MY GF called and we're going for our nails MON. Thank God--I would hate to ell her I can't go today, I feel like my intestines are on fire--so I'm drinking alot of water hahaha--but the worse thing are the nessages I'm taking for ork--OMG they're awful forgetting the town, or what they want done--misspelling everyone's name WTF--I've got to get myself together.for my job if nothing else.

    I have to say tho everyone is handling everything so well, and it's not easy. But u gals are great. And I feel bad cuz I'm not keeping up with everyone

    OH OH it's smarty right whos made that bra--oh whoa it's beautiful, u really can create. So many of u have been given a gift and u seem to have either continued with it or refound it--Good for all  of u.

    FBB u are amazing to all of us just keep this attitude and it'll helpu so much. But so sorry u'r going thru so much.

    4 u'r another busy bee--especially with all of u'r kids -u'r a good mom and an excellent patient. And keep on doing things.

    And everyone with u'r gardens--fantastic, I don't do any of that, never did. But I can appreciate all the work my DD and SIL love doing that so they are busy--if it ever gets really warm enough to enjoy it--It's still raining here.

    OK I'll try to do better--but I can't believe these phones when I first started I go maybe 3 o4 calls a day00Now it's much more stead and I'm getting more confused--It's not hard just confusing for me the filing in the computer is the easiest part

    OK BBL Like I've sid---u are a great bunchof of women and I hate getting so far behind.

    Good morning all (well, it is still morning here on the west coast). Too tired and burned out to catch up. Spent almost the entire day yesterday on the phone trying to get our health insurance issues correctly, but no, that would be too easy! We did everything right, stupid insurance company can't figure it out. Was placed on very long holds so I got to browse BCO for a bit.

    Should be really happy today (awards banquet for DD tonight where she will be receiving some scholarship from her college) but just not in the mood. The horrible heat  doesn't help any.

    Sassy, are you in trouble again? Why were you locked out of BCO? That's crazy. 

    Nettie, your kids are adorable!

    Will try to catch up later.

    sas...see what happens when you have to much knowledge .........they need to rephrase the quote .

    Knowledge is power...that you can't share

    Hope that gave you a Little chuckle Winking

    Note to self:

    1. Today my back does not hurt! YAY (not yet anyway)

    2. Today my head (scalp, skull??) does not hurt

    3. Yes my arm does hurt, but must remember had extensive therapy on it yesterday and I was promised it would get better.

    4. I do have a slight headache, but also had a cough/sneeze fit this morning, so the headache is more than likely just allergies!

    Therefore as I had hoped, it looks like a pretty good start to the weekend!

    Hope the same for the rest of you! 

    P.S. I'm not selfish or self absorbed, just have a hard time commenting on all the posts as the thread moves along so fast!

    sassafrassing - just remember it's needymed.gov not .org to make your links work.  Happy  I know, I'm a pain in the patootie or ass...whichever you prefer.

    Sitting here waiting for the Sears repairman to show up between 8 a.m. and freeking 5 p.m.  REALLY?  I've had about 2.5 hours of sleep and now I'm getting crabby.  hahahahhahahahah!  I'm always crabby.  A shrink once told me that's a form of depression.  I told him I thought it was a form of crankiness.  Okay, I didn't really SAY that, but I thought it!

    The lawn guy has been outside this morning reseeding my lawn.  They scraped and seeded last fall but evidently all the seed blew into Kansas so somebody down there has a beautiful fescue lawn.  Anyway, the guy doing it looks like the machines he's using are bigger than him.  I'm a little worried about him getting sucked under and implanted into my lawn.  Should I intervene or just see what it looks like when it happens?

    Ziggy, Congrats on the anniversary. Getting smoke-free was the hardest thing I ever did and the most worthwhile.

    Phylly, Just wait to see what it looks like. If you intervene you might end up planted too.

    FBB, Re your doctor, may a thousand camels fart in his face.

    Phylli!  Just leave that poor guy alone!  Poor thing!  I really like the area you live in!  So do you go down to the water, to wash your clothes, or carry back buckets to drink?  Just askin'..... 

    And Ponder away Sass....  Just exactly what are you pondering?  Or should I even ask?

    Smaarty Posts: 2,615

    Nettie, don't worry about if you comment on everybody. I know I can't. No excuse here it just doesn't stay long enough for me especially if it's several pages.

    Philly, stay away. That would be just gross. He should be done now anyway.

    It amazes me that the weather can be so different in so many places. We are differently in spring/summer. Some of you are still getting snow!

    It was so cold at the soccer game last night.  It was a great game.  We have another game tonight and its going to in the 50s when we start and in the 40s when it ends.  I need cofee. 

    I cant keep up.  I comment when I can.  I also worry about appearing selfish or leaving people out when posting.

    rofl Chevy.  Yes, I do!  But really that's just a random pic that I found.  My yard doesn't look nearly that good!  They got it reseeded and herbicided.  We'll see how it looks in a couple of weeks.

    Sorry I don't have photos of the disc golf.  We took in $2,300 in profit! This will cover items for kids and training and mileage for volunteers.

    To allay the grape vine. I haven't been suspended. The Mods and I disagree on what the definition of spamming is and how many posts would be acceptable. Their words "1-3".  I have more threads than that. I think what they did and their reasoning for doing it is weak and against first amendment rights. But if they don't get that to begin with. Nothing, I say or do I is going to change that.

    My world is bigger than 3, not sure how big. Dealing with placing a number on it is a bit bizarre. Pondering

    Oh Sass.... no more pondering...  Besides there are no grapes around here!  No spammers....  and we just want to relax and talk and have fun....

    Good night gals! xoxoxoxo

    And so what is the significance of the white steed and the whatever it is?   Do I have to stay up all night, to make sure you are staying out of trouble?   Geez, I sound like your Mom!    Make sure you lock the door, when you sneak back in the house!

    I may be done with individual responses for a while... My Femara trigger finger has gotten really bad and tonight I have it splinted and wrapped up in layers of bandages to immobilize it. Makes it very hard to type...

    So if you see me out somewhere and it looks like I'm flipping you off, I'm really not - it's just my middle finger that has been affected!

  • camillegal
    camillegal Posts: 15,710

    Blessings I'm sorry for that--Another words every one I see flipping me off I'll think of you. OK someone explain to me what frozen shoulder is and trigger finger is. I really don't know. I know all about infections, but not these things, but I want it in layman's terms.

    Remember I'll be gone tomorrow til Sunday afternoon so I probably won't be around so don't say anything important til I get back. But u can insult me all u want cuz I won't care.

    so far behind, I'm staying on this page 

    Phylly, is that you're yard? I am SO envious!

    Nettie, progress! Hope you're having a great weekend

    Cammi, just love it! "...every one I see flipping me off I'll think of you." Priceless! I'll be laughing every time someone flips me off  (and here in CA, that's quite often), I'll think of your comment.

    Badger, is that your adorable cat or did you borrow it from the Internet?

    Which reminds me, Blessings, your right about the cat butt photo! Ouch. I was so excited Snowball was finally being near me (this is the cat we didn't see for years) I didn't realize how that photo looks to others. So, hopefully, I'll replace it. Edited to delete it. BTW, that cat chasing dog video, they have shown it so much here. Heard it actually happened closer to you and they're going to honor the family (and cat) at a baseball game next week.

    Wren, will have to reminder the camel comment, too funny! 

    Smaarty, aka wizard of bras, you are SO talented! Can't begin to imagine what work goes into fitting one of those, would never take that on (couldn't even fit pants properly, can't begin to think how funny a bra I'd sew would turn out).

    Chevy, you make me smile!

    Jwow, saw a post on FB of a woman with a beautiful henna design on her head and thought of you. Will have to try to get pix next time I scrunch my hair. 

    Teka, sweet Teka, thanks for keeping W&F so fun and uplifting. 

    Better post before I lose it all.

    I love all the pics that some of you are posting. 2nd those Friday dancing cats cracked me up. Sas I can't keep up with all your avatar changes, or that quick mind of yours. Cami I'll miss your posts until Sunday. Blessings sorry to hear you are flipping everyone off, hope the finger heals up soon. Nettie I rarely comment individually, there is too many of us here, and the thread moves fast, subjects keep changing, and I tend to lurk, not always post. You doing ok holeinone??

    Way too much smoke in the air out here and another new fire in the area today. Hard to breathe. Was in Temecula (near San Diego) today and the skies were brown and ash was falling on my car from the fires. Yucky....

    Got email from my oncologist that she is setting up my iron infusions. Once a week, 4 hour drip, for 8 weeks, then blood work to check levels. Anyone ever had bone marrow test?? Wish they could figure out what's causing my iron storage and serum iron, and binding iron to drop so low. I do one thing and have to rest, then do another thing and rest. Can't exercise at all. It's crazy that I can rest, but not sleep. Take care everyone.

    Hey 2nd that Cat knocking that Dog off of that boy and then chasing the dog away is so amazing. I hear the baseball teams are going to ask the Cat to throw out the first pitch....that Cat can probably do it . :))

    2nd_time_around Posts: 14,084

    lol! Oops, waking the sleeping cat next to me. That cat was amazing! You're right, the cat could probably do it. Cats are awesome too. How are your furbabies?
