is this editing or do you have a server fault christine?

Body: 

i have just been surprised to see topics disappear from this forum.
i have already read the content on "remove my name from your list" and the comments by "marylouis" and "tanya". it is still listed under recent posts but can no longer be accessed. why?
i ahve read the forums from dr murphy before and consider them a good advert for your work (indirectly!)
i also believe that for some women who have particularly bad symptoms surgery may be a necessity.
i also believe that most women presented by both sides of the argument, and advised in full about the risks will try conservative management first, and will only see surgery as a last resort.

likewise, the two topics that i recently created "prolapse in the animal kingdom" and "its official: pregnancy did not worsen my prolapse" have also disappeared from the main forum menus (although you can still access them through the track function and recent comments)

does this mean i am also considered to be an "unhelpful" or subversive voice on your forum, notwithstanding that i am broadly supportive of your work (although i have in the past noticed the disappearance of any useful discription of fire breathing from the forums, presumably to encourage people to read the second edition of your book)? is it because i insist that i have gained benefit from my so far 2 sessions with a qualified yoga therapist? i promise i am not dr pelvic floor or a supporter of surgical solutions in disguise!

i would hope that you would not see the need to edit in that way or stifle the debate. you would be better to leave us to judge for ourselves, as your reputation is more diminished by not crediting us with the intelligence to make up our own minds. i never like to be patronised by being "protected" from the other argument.

for me, i am more convinced than ever that i can live well with prolapse, and i have you to thank you for starting me on that journey.

best wishes,
babs

When someone asks to be removed from this site it removes ALL of their posts! This is not editing this is demands from people who really should just leave and slam the door behind them instead of whining to be removed.

From now on I think that NOBODY should demand deletion of their account as the time-line (post-line) is altered forever and then things get messy.

Can we please return to the normal posting and stop the childish arguing.

Thank You

well that answers half of my question for me....

so by being removed from the mailing list all comments disappear?

well whatabout the recent forum topics which can still be accessed, but no longer appear in the forum menus?

Non accessible subject headers are because it is on a 'roll around' type thing - It will be gone when new posts are added.

in future if people have a problem - Email me DIRECTLY - And I will sort it as best I can - Please do not start topics that are just arguments ongoing. Christine is very busy and I have no life so I will sort it :)

We are no longer removing people - They can just edit their profile and put in a fake addy as to remove someone like myself who has been here a long time would totally wreck the post line.

I really have no life - Bar being a Disabled Mum. I am recovering very well of my Hernia Op - Back to normal again thanks.

This site is one where us Moderators do not normally out who we are. i prefer to sit in the background and this is the first time I have mentioned it.
