And what does this have to do with RLS?

Thank you, . This is what I have been trying to emphasize for weeks

and weeks now. Several other members of this support group have voiced their

opinions concerning the extraneous email that keeps wandering through our RLS

mail, but some people are (and they are ALWAYS the same people) CONTINUING TO

PERSIST in flooding this site WITH NO REGARD for others.

When I first joined this group, it was very informative and very supportive

of each other. Occasionally, there would be a little flare-up, but usually

it was over in a short period of time. Now there are TWO people who are

constantly causing a disturbance all in the name of trying to be helpful, and

sometimes they are joined by two or three others. Several of our members

have already unsubscribed because they don't care for all this unnecessary

discension.

We had a new member join the other day who referred to the " attitude " of this

group, and I believe he did a very accurate assessment of our situation.

Naturally he received an unfavorable comment.

I have abstained many times from commenting on various emails so as not to

cause additional stress to others who have had enough of this already. When

I did speak up, I was attacked (BY THE SAME TWO INDIVIDUALS WHO ATTACK

EVERYONE ELSE). It is my understanding that a support group is supposed to

help each other....not cause a lot of discord.

I sincerely hope, but with limited expectations, that before you send an

email message to the RLS Support website you will please consider others

before you do so. It is easy to just say " Press the Delete Key " , but some

people seem to think that gives them the right to just post anything. Jodi

posted a message regarding the purpose of this group. I can't find my copy

right now, but this might be a good time to send it out again.

Please, folks, listen up and let's get back to the basics. If you want to

talk about a lot of stuff that has no bearing on RLS, why don't you use a

chat channel. That way the people who are interested in Hepatitis vaccines

could so inform you, and you could send it on to them. I don't have little

kids, no grandkids and never had a Hepatitis shot, so I'm not interested!!

I'm somewhat sorry that everyone is seeing me with an aggravated attitude,

but I am just so tired of some people and their email. Most of the time I am

a very friendly, outgoing individual
