I have to admit, as one of the newest members (This being massive Post #8), I have yet to see any bullying. My whole 1st thread is about a system not readily available, as well as my intent to modify said device.

I suspect, given the 600+ views, that some are possibly watching to see if I kill myself, while others may be silently cheering for wacko that may have a viable approach for a different C-PAP, given that EMT services and ERs use them...

Given that my entire pending setup is not available through cpap.com, I have not been moderated, or otherwise admonished, other than by those that seem to be satisfied with what they have, and encouraged to purchase something other than what I think may be a better alternative.

Someone DID, however, accuse me of over-thinking... Image

As others have said, there are far worse forums and places where intelligent thought is certainly not the norm. So far, this forum seems to be fairly open-minded and I'm glad I have had the opportunity to openly present my idea, while also being free to ignore the advice that says get a good machine and you'll be fine.

Is that supposed to be a good thing? You bully an acquaintance on line and they commit suicide especially high school kids who are so impressionable?
WOW!

Is it just me, or, has anyone else noticed that E's recent posts seem a LOT more assertive, and combative than previous offerings ? Oh, yeah, "dribble" ?

Another one that keeps proving my point. Don't you guys see what you look like picking on someone you perceive as helpless? How would you treat a person with a disability in the real world? You do know there is a real world outside of the internet don't you?
Morbius, are you bored?

Explain the "disability". He exercises regularly and recently said he wants to ride a bike 3 hours a day. Is it mental?

Who knows? None of us know him. How would we know something like that? For sure, this isn't a place to discuss what is perceived to be "mental" issues.

If people need protection they should protect themselves. Grow up and stop whining

That's ridiculous, appalling, and ignorant. Just hope you never need help.

Sight vs site, homonyms. Using one in place of the other REPEATEDLY makes one look foolish, to say the least.
Normally, I reserve spelling corrections to a gentle PM, but this is a SPECIAL CASE!

CF... said gently... why would you suggest spelling corrections in a sleep apnea forum? Does it really matter if someone says "sight" instead of "site" or "cite"? I doubt it will do anything to improve their sleep.
