mudgirl Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Mtn. Mama started a topic today which had a link to an article on CBD oil as a possible virus treatment or preventative. Closed rght away by Mod 3 on the basis that she shouldn't be offering medical advice if she isn't qualified to do so. She didn't offer medical advice, at all. She posted the link and simply gave a short comment on it from her point of view. She certainly didn't tell anyone that they should take it or make personal claims of its efficacy. This board seems to be moderated on the basis of personal interpretation and bias, rather than impersonal forum rules. 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 You know the procedure here. Contact the closing Moderator with this question. Wasn't me this time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMama Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Probably because I made a snarky comment about a certain malaria drug. I was wanting to share the CBD oil info so others could watch its progress as I plan to. There are interesting studies being done all over the world, and I expect a few will turn out to be valuable. I hope this is one of them. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were serious about sharing information you you might have appealed to a wider audience by leaving out the snarky comment. But that is beside the point. I would hope you could see that what you have done here suggesting the CBD might be a good way to prevent or reduce the symptoms of COVID is no more than valid than what Trump has done in recommend some of his possible cures. I would have given him, or Biden, the same admonition. Leave the medical advice to the medical professionals. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have given him, or Biden, the same admonition. Leave the medical advice to the medical provisionals. Trump claims he did take the advise of his doctors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moderator-2 Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 And that should do it. Next time Mudgirl, PM your concern directly to the Mod. Don't start another thread like this unless you'd like to join the time out crowd. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
