I dont want to appear like some guy trying to sell another forum, but I've noticed that since the site went down and came back up alot of the posters here have dissapeared, have they moved to a different site or something?

If they have would it be possible for someone to private message me that site, its just their is a considerable lack of activity here since the site went down and I dont know where they all went

Thanks

Luc

If you go through the threads the information is all there. There are some posters that have moved on and others have been banned. Farrel has been clear in his comments about why and how this has come about.

There is still a very active community here that are posting their results and are ready to chime in on a variety of hair loss questions.

CHL-- I think many are just taking a break--this has been a VERY intense year for many of us who spend a lot time on the forums, on the phones, etc...

I believe the situation Farrel addressed finally came to a head, and we just need to work back into helping people out and promoting clinics with proven track record of excellence.

For some posters, much of their forum activity surrounded a particular topic and now that that opportunity is gone, they are fulfilled in the fact that they no longer have to "protect" others from what they felt was unconscionable marketing.

Right or Wrong, this forum can finally get back to people like Jotronics, Spex, and many, many others helping out with solid advance, without snapping at each other over clinical claims.

I expect many new posters to start posting here--due to the misrepresentation of another forum existing only to cultivate prospective clinics under the guise of patient advocacy----we need to welcome them comfortably and help them as best we can.

Take Care,
Jason

While this has been a very tough time for me I have to say I feel happy about one thing, and that is this.

I know what the truth is, and I know I can stand up in court, where it counts, and state the facts.

On the other hand, there are some people out there who have lied so much they have dug a very deep hole for themselves.

It's always better in the long run to be the guy who got smeared, and was later found to be innocent, than to be the guy who pretended to be innocent, and later was found to be guilty.

LOL Farrel--I KNOW what you mean my friend. We will both be standing on the sidelines when the truth comes out.

Thanks for keeping it going and running a clean forum.
