I Think u should clarify the matter with the concerned moderator.am sure he/she will understand the point.

i have observed a few of them now and then,and they seem quite understanding.

the ones i have seen at least are!

dont just leave because u got a warning point.look at the pros of being here.remedies plus many supportive people!

just like u need the forum for good,the forum needs u for good as well.

just clear the misunderstanding and all will be good!

luck!

Hey I don't know what happened but I know how beneficial this board can be for someone like me who doesn't have a lot of people in real life to talk about the stress acne causes us. Here there is a bunch of understanding people and I know personally sometimes it gets me through the day to check in here and share our feelings and stuff. It felt good to read your thread about how you are going on a date soon and how we on this board helped you feel better enough to say yes. Thats pretty awesome.

So dont go! I'm sure its just a giant misunderstanding. But if you do I wish you all the best of luck and hope you live a beautiful life. Peace.

Thank you guys!

I really don't know what my brother said and in no way do I condone him going on our computer and creating a fake account (with fake email?). But I find it to be very interesting how lately there have been a fair share of trolls coming here and belittling women suffering from acne but they are not getting any criticism and warning points and interestingly there are still on board. Aanabil know who I am talking about, a person who has been quite annoying with his chauvinistic comments yet I still was nice and understanding.

It is ok people. It is for the better maybe. I will be busy with work anyway .

Thank you for your warmth and support, especially when I was feeling down. It is easier to be supportive when you are in high spirits but tougher when a person is feeling down. I will never forget your kindness!

XOXO!!!

(I guess this is my last post hehe ).

yes,i know.

but as far as i know 5 points are needed to be sorta 'banned'..

am afraid he still might not have reached 5 by now.

but if he goes on n on like this,am sure he'll be noticed and banned.

i personally haven't reported him yet for sometimes i still feel sorry for him.he's just 20.

but then am 21 and i dnt think i spoke like that a year ago!!

anyway,have a good life if u're gone.

cheers!

I guess you all are talking about Misc. I think he is a dude with real problems. Acne can warp our minds so instead of arguing with him just show support and move on. Most of the stuff he says is out of sheer anger and depression its understandable. Acne can do that to a man. We cope by raging sometimes and the dude needs an outlet. Then again I'm more patient and understanding than most.

Rest assured that if members are making derogatory and or offensive/unhelpful comments on these boards they are being dealt with by the moderators and warnings issued. Obviously warnings are private between the moderators and the member involved as are warning points if issued.

AmbitiousOne, if you say your brother opened up another account and posted on your thread to support you, then I'm sorry to say that the comment was unsupportive and understandably as moderators of this site we acted accordingly.

Believe me, we are also sick of the negativity and unsupportive nature of posts made by many in the last few days but we are (as I'm sure most are) hopeful that the boards will return to normal soon.

I'm sorry to hear that you feel you need to stop contributing to these boards and I can assure you that you will missed.

AyeAye - acne.org moderating team.

Glad to hear that the negative and insulting remarks will be coming to an end because I've lost all patience with certain members, feel bad for the moderators at the minute since there's a lot of stuff to moderate! If AmbitiousOne has received a warning point can you imagine how many the troublemakers have had!

i am sorry but i beg to differ here.

that guy is a stubborn idiot.i feel sorry for being this rude.i usually dont attack someone personally unless i am provoked one on one.

but even though he never spoke to me directly,i couldnt hold myself act tough.

i am glad for the 1st time i spoke to him that way.

he needs that.for his own good.

each one of us are worried and tensed abt acne or otherwise(i personally have suffered.one of my maternal uncle in his 30s now passed away in a horrible accident).his is still nothing compared to what most has here.

but i understand not everyone can handle things.i myself fail now and then.

BUT the problem is his mentality and the way he talk - 'pussy slayer' ,'deformed girl - tree hole'..thats not frustration ; thats plain cheapness and sick attitude.

he needs to get his head right for his own good.

when he 1st stated that he wants to 'impregnate a acne-free goodlooking woman' to have 'acne-free child' and later said that his father and dog hates him because he's got acne - i though he was a kid and immature.

but he's just sick.

he talks about woman like they are objects.

keeps talking abt how masculine he is but still no girl sleeps with him for his forehead has red spots.

why?

because woman are all superficial(whether they admit or not) and all they care about is face and body.

this is sign of frustration????

he refuses to listen to anybody(i have myself seen atleast 3-4 girls and more boys trying to explain him things) and keeps posting pics of male models.

i even asked him if he things everyman who's happy and with a partner looks like that.

to that he went round and round and came back to the same thing - girls in tight yoga pants,'i am hot bod' but my acne is holding me from getting laid.

he wants to get rid of acne.why?

he says because he wants to be able to sleep with every woman he finds sexy.

excuse?

he says like all masculine male he has insanely high testesterone level(that's one reason men do anything they find okay- evn trees if thats possible)

really?

i will still add that i feel sorry at times(when am not thinking abt how low his thoughts are) because he's a young boy who needs help.he's clearly at lack of guidance.

but if he refuses to help himself.listen to ppl..i am afraid no one can.

Thanks everyone! You were right Aanabil: moderators are very understanding. I was just really angry.

I can promise everyone that my brother won't do such a thing again as he saw me crying and he was scolded by my mom.

I also want to confirm that he swore on his life that that was the only time that he did it.

Thank you everyone. I love you all. God knows how much support and strength you give me. I am staying.

Wow i sound like a drama queen. Sorry everyone !

XOXO!!!

I will talk to you soon.
