How Can You Improve This Site?

okay, is it just me or are a lot more.. non ED people joining the board asking for tips?! or people asking if they're anorexic when they eat X amount per day.. or should they eat less, blah blah blah?

Exactly. Extremely annoying. Report them if you see them

No, not just you. I just posted this morning in a thread asking why it was so important for person X to obtain the 'I'm an anorexic' label. I really don't understand this mentality.

Yes please report. The mods can't be on all the time, or read every thread.

*Was not here for all the drama but wanted to give my thoughts.... so I can't speak on what took place but I would just like to say a few things that came up for me when I was reading this thread.*

Been gone for a while dealing with my health but I just thought I would say something also..... Well cuz I can. LOL Anyways I would like to say that we as "members" do not see or know what the mods do or don't do because they spend PM's to people and/or talk to them in chat. I can say that I have had a MOD other than Dark Side come to me and send a PM to me telling me I was breaking a rule and that I need to not do it or I will be banned. There are mods on here who may not appear to be on but are. So keep it in mind that mods do not have to let the rest of the site know that they are on. Anyways mods do talk to each other and most will try and find out the whole story before just banning someone. As for the admin.... yes I will agree that there are times they should listen more and TRY to understand or even just ask a few questions before thinking they know the full story however, they are people too and they make mistakes. But if you can go to the MODS/or ADMIN and talk to them and explain yourself the best you can most of the time they are VERY reasonable. You might also learn a thing or two if you try and just have a convo with them and see that they are dealing with things themselves and can only deal with so much at a time.

Add a "journal" section, there was one on the site i used to go to, and it was nice to be able to follow the lives of online friends, and share the everyday strugles of ed and recovery..

Hi mini09, there's actually a blog section on this site. Is that what you mean?

[mini09]

Oh maybe, I hadn't seen it
