"Well...scientific back-up entails quite a bit of resources, so sometimes one has to use instincts based on experience. There is a shortage of certified medical specialists to share their views with us directly, so I for one, have taken matters into my own hands.
I have uncovered the main causes of my affliction, and wish to share the results with likewise individuals."
 

Well, yet, again this is where you erred because you don’t know what you’re talking about! First of all, Shroom, where are your QUALIFICATIONS or EXPERIENCE for you to be a “certified medical specialists” in this area? Since when? In many of your post there are pseudo words mixed in with some truth, hypothesis, and unskilled advice. I’m sorry, it makes a mockery out of everything you’re trying to represent. I’ve worked around many doctors for several years – so when I hear pseudo words, I know what’s up! Your continual espousing of “knowledge” is actually embarrassing and very dangerous! A newbie or a non-medical person might be mislead with such behavior. Frankly, I’m not impressed and neither are others.

If you’re going to post something here or anywhere, be responsible! Less attitude and greater respect -- for starters -- would work!

“There is nothing sarcastic about what I have posted, although this type of format is always at risk of accidentally offending sensitive individuals.”

Here it is for all to see – a downright insult with a nice added touch of arrogance mixed in. “offending sensitive individuals” -- how dare you to even think such a thought. Your entire post was more than insulting with a smack of know-it-all attitude! Even now. This is not a competition match of information or who’s the best at microscopic works. I’m neither interested nor impressed with the ego-flexing attitude you’ve displayed here or on the P Forum. (To be honest, Speedy1 who just got their microscope has posted far better identifiable micrographs than you have throughout the year.) We’re dealing with people’s lives who are very ill -- we’re very concerned. It is obvious now and very unfortunate that you don’t understand this, nor do you care.

Additionally, in your post, it looks like you were "belittling" Doc and you know nothing! Let’s examine this closer. There are all sorts of funny-looking structures clearly defined on the Micrographs. Let’s not forget the HUGE worm-like structures that a nearly blind person could possibly see! What do you do? You actually implied that all of 70428's sufferings could be reduced to an E. coli outbreak 'du jour' – what? More over, how can anyone identify E. coli from just looking at those Micrographs (especially from someone who has claimed to have gotten their microscope last year)!? Not even an expert can do such a thing, so how is it possible for you, Shroom? Since you’ve become CZ’s resident scientific “expert” can you clearly explain how or why those weird structures would be there since this is the case? Are they there for fun?

“I had missed that post that you referenced regarding the mold. I will answer that for you in detail.
I will respect your wishes, and abstain from posting here. Shroom”

As I stated, the Scientific Forum could be a great place for what you're trying to do because people can toss around ideas, question things, hypothesize, share information, and view pictures that have NOTHING to do with parasites, peer assessment, etc. Have at it with the pseudo-talk over there where it might belong.

Initially, I didn’t say that you can’t post here -- I wanted you to respect what goes on. The attitude of being an authority, making diagnostic conjectures, mumbo-jumbo talk, and ill-advice is no longer acceptable. Period. However, in light of your recent insulting “offending sensitive individuals” comment, you’re not welcomed here! That's an insult not only to us and to RHR but to 70428 and to her family, co-sufferers, and anyone that frequents this forum, I think.

To be frank, your mumbo-jumbo double-talk shouldn't be allowed on the Parasite Forum, either. A newbie, not knowing your history would innocently take your ill-advice seriously as an authority. You are NOT an expert! I’ve made mentioned of this before on that Forum. If people understood on the P Forum what was real or not, it wouldn’t be encouraged and many would see how irresponsible those posts are. Most of your posts have no real pertinent information to help someone. I encourage all to review your posts (again) and see what I’m talking about. You don’t care too much about people – this is really clear (then and now), particularly, with your above comment! The majority of your posts have been ALL about Shroom – supposed “discoveries” on this or that, use of psycho pills, rants, etc. – you lend very little Support on the Support Forum.

People that go to the P Forum are very desperate – I understand, because I’ve been there myself. Whether there you’re on a public or private forum, there should be a level of accountability. Anyone claiming to be an expert should be more understanding and realize the responsibility that goes with posting information.

You may not hear me now, Shroom, but maybe one day you will. What will it take, authorities coming after you because of irresponsible behavior? Become responsible, develop some respect for what you’re trying to do, represent, and the people around you. Your attitude needs a serious readjustment! You are out of line and there is nothing to debate here.

Any future posts that are insulting will not be allowed and removed. There will be no further discussion or debates about it.
