Once again my posts have been deleted without explanation or comment.... just like they were never there???

Meanwhile there is a thread with several rule violations where people are mentioning there own websites.

Why are posts deleted or the whole thread so far as I can see in one thread and another has incvreasing rule violations and not a peep from a mod?

Hi Steve :) ,

First, the only one who can delete a post (other than the person who posted) is Scott. The mods can render a thread "invisable", but it's never actually deleted. Sometimes we do that if a thread has gotten particularly nasty, or if the member only posted to sell something. It is then up to Scott what will be done with it. We (mods) do not have the capability to render a single post invisable.

Be assured that whenever I see a website being featured in someone's signature, I report it. You would not be aware of this, as only the mods and Scott would see the report. There would be some lag time between the report, and the link being gone.

Anytime you see something that you feel is against the rules (we are only human, and are not on all the time), you can hit the "report" button and report it yourself. ;)

Richard,

I'm not sure if this is the thread Steve was referring to, but yesterday someone posted for the first time claiming that he "cured" his Celiac Disease. There was at least one complaint that I remember, and this morning, the thread is gone.

Steve, in a case like this, anyone who happened to post in the thread will have had their post (s) deleted. A little like an innocent bystander :D

One new poster assualted me. Steve missed it, but it was after one of his posts that she got nasty. I called her on it, she got nastier. The WHOLE THING was deleted starting with Steve's post. One of my posts that should have been deleted wasn't, so you can still see it there and all it says is "deleted post". If that's the thread, Steve, that's what happened. I agree that your post didn't need to be deleted, but the rest did.

Carla-I can't believe anybody would be nasty to you, you are always so helpful. Some people are just so rude.

I actually belong to another forum, and it is for adults who have braces well in the last week we had a new poster who got banned. She came on explaining her treatment and then started asking all sorts of questions for pictures and different things. When people questioned her she got very nasty and would get all fired up. I know a few members reported her as being a fetish poster looking for pictures of girls.

It is horrible when people come in and disrupt the community.

Thank you. :wub: I may not have come across nice to her ;) ... she jumped on Steve, rudely, and, like I said, I called her on it, pointed out to her that her assessment was incorrect. She was insulting to ALL members of the board, actually, in the things she said, including the first poster who needed support. I explained to her, without lowering myself to her level, how wrong she was. I just couldn't let someone come on here and make that kind of blanket judgments about all of us. Scott deleted all the posts, as he should have. Steve's post was one of the ones that got deleted ... I'm betting that's the post he's referring to. If he didn't see any of the posts that were deleted, it would seem his was singled out, but it wasn't ... I would say about 10 posts were deleted altogether.

To hijack the thread momentarily, how are the braces going? My ortho says I'll get mine off early, in 9-12 months!! YAY! I can't believe how much better my teeth are looking!

Actually, good news! I was there on Monday, and we are looking at finshing in May or June. It will be nice, in time for the October wedding. We are waiting on the gaps to close where I had two teeth pulled. It is very tiny, so not much left.

Good news for you. Early removal is a good sign. I too am amazed at how much nicer they look. I cannot wait until they are finished. Overall it has been a good experience.

That is good news!

Overall this has been a good experience for me, too. The most important thing is that my TMJ feels better. I was worried about wearing all stainless steel braces at 43, but I quickly learned that NO ONE CARES! :lol: I've never had a negative comment about them. Sometimes I wear red lipstick just to show off my most expensive fashion accessory!! :lol:

I have to say they are my most expensive as well, I got clear ones because I too was worried about the look. I am happy I paid the extra money for them, it was worth it.

I've been wondering about deleted posts also. If a post does not get a response, is it then deleted? I've posted a couple of times about an IgG antibody test I had done, but it suddenly disappeared. Is it because no one responded?

Just curious.

Thanks

That wasn't an option for me.

Hubby wears invisalign though. It's done wonders for his teeth and he's been able to bleach them while they're moving.

A post is deleted because it has violated the board rules. If a thread gets into arguement mode, Scott has the option of deleting the entire thread.

Sorry, next time I'll be sure you get the memo -- Carla's arguing on such and such a thread! :lol: And, it wasn't at night. ;) You just plain missed it! LOL

As for a thread with no responses, if you are using the "view new posts", it won't show up if it hasn't had any responses. Otherwise, it still should be there in the section where you posted it.

If you started a thread that violated rules you would have heard about it. I'm guessing nobody replied and your post disappeared from "view new posts."

I also have had some of my replies disapear, and I know darn well they were not rude or violating any rules. At first I second guessed myself, wondering what I did wrong. But just figured it was a glitch on the board.

k,

Here's what I do. Click on "Gluten-Free Celiac Disease Forum at Celiac.com (Home)" above, under your name. Make that your shortcut on your desktop. When you use it to come to the forum, scroll near the bottom and click on "today's active topics" (in Board Statistics). Now you will see all the posts, no matter how many times or how often you visit.

best regards, lm

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
