Terms of Use: A Few Gentle Reminders

Dear HealthUnlocked Community:

As a result of recent activity, we would like to share some reminders about the general terms of use for this community. We, as administrators, are committed to ensuring a respectful dialogue through which all participants have the opportunity to express themselves. That being said, please note:

1) Posts which contain prohibited content (business solicitations, explicit content, etc.) will be removed. Posts which contain inappropriate language (curse words) may be edited by administrators. This includes inappropriate usernames.

2) Should you see posts you feel violate the terms of use, your recourse is to report the post to the administrators. Community members should not try to police others’ posts – please allow the administrators to handle any inappropriate content. If you disagree with an administrator’s decision please message the administrators rather than continuing to engage on the post.

3) Community members should recognize that not all content a particular user finds inappropriate or offensive will be considered in violation of the terms of use. Each individual should take care of themselves and not engage in posts they find offensive or triggering. Posts with controversial topics such as religion or politics will be carefully reviewed once reported but, for example, the mere mention of religion does not justify removal. Posts referring to illegal activities will be removed.

4) Please understand that this community consists of more than 50,000 members from around the globe with roughly 12,000 posts per month. It is impossible for administrators to review each post in real-time. Reports of Abuse will be reviewed as quickly as possible but there may be periods of time where responses are slower than others (e.g., holidays, weekends, evening hours).

Thank you,

Admin

Agree! I am always amazed to think how cool this site is with international participants.... or friends I should say. Thankyou administrators for oversight.

[LilyAnnepuppy]

I think you do a great job.

Yes I do agree with you and I know you admins do a thankless and difficult task, and I appreciate all you do for us to keep the site safe for us all.

But, I have noticed a lack of cover here, especially Sundays (I am in no way criticising, just observing) as happened this Sunday with the troll, who was able to upset the whole site during that day. I and others were concerned that it would drive away members or greatly upset more vulnerable ones hence my replies and the post I put up warning people what to do. There was clearly no admin here at any time during that day.

Now I am not saying for a moment that you admins don't work very hard etc. but maybe getting another admin in even if just to pop in several times so trolling or spams posts /responses aren't left up so long is possible please? The only other alternative seems to staying off the site until an admin is there to deal with it. This is what I did in the end. x

Can you ask for advice on medication your taking or thinking of taking? And share experiences? Do you need to update your posts or write new ones?

[Poodie]

Thank you.
