I have more than 200 back and forth e-mail messages on my account that I use for curezone. Some of the people I find back on the forums and they go from forum to forum, there is even one that uses the number and name to get 2 messages in on Andreas forum.
Of course not everybody is that way, but I think that most people also don't realize that we are not health professionals and we have to read up on things too.
More than a year ago I dropped out of curezone for awhile, because people told me they were tired of the links I put in my messages, they wanted to hear personal stories. So now I save personal stories instead and link them :).
I have checked the thread in messages and you will find that the first messages might have 50 clicks and the last one may be 6. We have a lot of general readers.
One person on the bowelcleanse forum asked why it was all the sudden so quiet she missed the 10-15 posts she liked to read every day.
Since my hobby is to figure out things, I check out a lot of different things that has nothing to do with health, but my intuition often brings me to people who try to sneak in advertising etc. So I am one of the people that use the Alert button a lot.
So good luck Webmaster. I don't think you want more work but it would be nice if the forum names could be simplified. A year ago I could not find this forum, because I only remembered Webmaster, but not Suggestions. The same with the word ASK in front of certain people's names it makes it complicated. OK this is an whole different subject, I am sure you are busy enough.
