I attempted to send the below to the moderator and advised by him that he left that position months ago. I now assume there is no one to review what is written. Read below what I sent to the Moderator that has left:

One quick thing- which I think you may wish to address. I felt it was time to say something about a few members are taking the comments/discussion section to be "defamatory" and just plan "negative and ad hominum" against a doctor who has helped many of us. There are two that stand out donkeydonk or Merrixx as best as I remember. it's fine to recommend or be critical of a surgeon, no problem. But they have gotten to the point of just plan nasty, negative, attacking my doctors. I know the earlier moderator has blocked or erased people who cross that line. I know I was advised that I was speaking to highly about my doctor when writing others and backed off.

After reading some comments, I feel these guys have just plain gone too far. If you read what has been written, the personal attacks- not just a couple, but repeated, nasty ones. I think it must be addressed or this site will be become the Wild West. I hope you intervene and erase the threats as it has gone too far.

I've received replies from Paul before and as best I can tell, he OWNS this board. I'm not sure what his entire account name is though.

hi,
if you have issues with a specific post, please send the link to the post to me and I'll look at it. What you are talking about is exactly why we do not want people promoting doctors on the site or, even worse, Dr promoting themselves. The purpose of this site is for men to share their experiences and to support each other, not to promote one Dr over another.
And yes everyone is to remain respectful of each other at all times.
thanks
paul

I notice there are a lot of band wagons cheering on EID and Kramer. While I was choosing a surgeon, I ruled out Kramer because reading many posts, I found he had a history of installing the pump to high which required revisions. If he is the super top dog, why the revisions? Just stating facts.

Thankfully my experience with Dr Kramer just a few days ago was very different and satisfying. I can feel the pump down on Day 3. What I really liked about him was his coming over to my place in Istanbul to check my well-being and give an unvarnished assessment of my surgery proceedings. I know he goes to see his patients in US but frankly wasn’t expecting him to do that in Turkey. But I am sure there are other caring doctors as well and have immense respect for them as well.

Did you pay to fly him over there to do your surgery or is he doing clinics around the world? That would be a neat way to see the world and work also.

Someone, I don't remember who, claimed to have an email from Kramer saying he had a 3 week training jaunt in Europe already planned.
Just a wild ass guess on my part. Perhaps he is on a Ridgidcon promotional tour. I think that Proctor got an inflatable Ridgidcon.

Thats correct. I got Rigicon IPP.. Rigijcon must be sponsoring this tour, I can hardly afford to pay a US doctor to come to Europe to see me!Everything went well so far, and I am healing now qithout any major issues.
