I was banned yesterday. Are they for real???? Get a chuckle from this.....

When I logged in after posting the night before to someone who suffers from something similar to me, I received a message from Healthboards that my account was suspended because I posted my email address. So, I emailed the administrator the following:

Subject: please reinstate

I was unaware of the rule of not posting my email address.

I am 4 days post op tendon transfer and am desperate for information.

Their response was:

Please always send your exact registered username(s)
and the registered email address(es), along with your
questions when you email admin or a moderator. Thanks.

I emailed them my username and sent the email from the address I signed up with. They replied with the following:

You need to address the reason you lost posting
privileges.

Forget it. Your board isnt worth my time or energy. You simply are being ridiculous and petty. It's a message board, not an application to be the President! What are you, the CIA or Secret Service ? Do you wnt my SS#?

You emailed me stating why I lost privileges (you allege I posted my email). Why do I need to repeat myself?

I am flat on my back, cannot walk and am in pain like you cannot imagine. I need help desperately about my recent surgery and you make it impossible for people who need help to get help from others in a similar position.

You should be embarrassed.
