I think some individuals should think very hard about what they are planning to do on this forum.  There is a lot of hate circulating and people are suggesting going to extreme lengths (threats of violence, national news, posting personal information, etc...) How is any of this beneficial to any of us as potential leg lengthening patients?

I am keeping neutral in all of this   as much as possible but I feel as a forum LL Forum is getting off on the wrong foot big time.  Whatever has happened on old forum  it is still the biggest site on the net for information about LL.  There are thousands of posts from thousands of users.  If SysOp pulls the plug we all lose that.  If this   gets on national news because some nut job attacks SysOp or reports the old forum  site, you can bet this new forum will be dragged through the mud as a result and we will all look like delusional psychotics.

Currently of the 15 or so posts on this forum 6 are bitch fests about old forum  or its members.  Who gives a  ?  Just roll it into one thread and let the rest of the forum grow into the knowledge base it should be.  Seeing the users act like complete children does not look good at all.  There isn't even a single completed diary on here yet.

LL Forum has about 8 years to catch up on old forum , this can be done by structuring the site in such as a way as to provide excellent LL knowledge through decent research and doctor consultations backed up by patient diaries one by one as members do the surgery.

It is very hard to take this forum seriously in it's present state.

REMEMBER THIS.

If old forum  goes because some individuals are butt hurt.  We lose perhaps one of the most important sources of information about LL on the internet.  Love or Hate SysOp there are well over a hundred diaries on old forum , good and bad.  With just about every possible scenario discussed with advice from veterans and patients given in response.

There are thousands of threads discussing new, old and potential Dr's.

There are hundreds of questions and discussions about LL and matters surrounding it.

Right now, to be blunt, this forum has  .

I can't be the only one to be gutted if old forum  goes down and all we have left for help and advice is this place?

Seriously guys.  Sort it out.

I can also see that you are primarily concerned about yourself, alot of your fears seem to be related to your own self. I'm sorry dude, but you come off as a selfish prick.  I don't see you as neutral, more like somebody who's is driven by fear and lack any rationale thinking.

Also to add on, if old forum  goes down, who gives a  ?   That site is ran as an marketing portal by a small group of people to make money with fake information and controlled opinions.  Can you grasp what that means as a patient ?

You want to do LL surgery?  Have you got the money and time?  If you do, then what else do you really need?  Pick a doctor from the recommended list since you buy into that and do it.   

You sound like you have read most sections of the old forum  website enough, so what else do you need?  Seriously.

Apotheosis will always threaten to take down the site, but you know something?  That dude depends on that site for a living, you're a fool if you even believe a word he says at this point.

Tell me right now what is the alternative?

Short support?  With links to some of the worst doctors you could possibly do the surgery with?

Or this place, where the majority of people are irate that some other site may or may not be prejudice and the actual information about Leg Lengthening amounts to about 5 posts and the majority of the members have not even had LL yet?

Are you so blind as to not see the value of all the information on old forum ?  Despite the drama it is unrivaled for information.

Seriously, if this is reported in the media, people will just recognize that there are some really shady people running old forum  behind the scenes. 

It;s like if there's a site that exposes scam, people will say the exact same things (find the scammer, report him to police/media),  do you think those people come off as psychotics?    I think you are the delusional one.

What use is a board that shows distorted information? I mean if LL in *reality* has 70% cases of complications think of how many people would just back out? My only (and many others') source of info about LL is old forum . I had believed everything it had said till now. But if it is just trying to show "merry" stories in hope of "pushing" LL, what is the use?

The admin *edits* posts like he wants and posts as other people. Seriously.

About losing information, what have you to say about saving the site for offline viewing?
