CG annoying???.....not a chance

Whats really annoying is other cpap suppliers resorting to spam for their sites.

Good catch CG!

RE: arteecat:

I never caught it, even though I thought that this poster had been a little abrupt at times. You did very well to ferret this out, CG!

Arteecat:

You cannot win this one. CG knows very well how to do research, and she is right on when it comes to your self-serving posts. Even if you are sure that your site is the cheapest, or the best, how can you be ABSOLUTELY certain?

There certainly may be considerations that require you to qualify your statements. For example, in the case of the hose cover, does the cheapest one match all others in quality and features? My inquiring mind would like to know. No other details are given.

There are other sleep apnea forums, and MANY of our members peruse them, as well as this one, regularly. Perhaps if you had just mentioned another forum, it would have been enough to interest some folks in checking it out. However, your chances have considerably DROPPED due to a less-than-straightforward approach.

Ethical considerations do not ALWAYS choose to be of the highest morals. Unfortunately for you, your lack of ethics has definitely hurt you in this case--IMHO.

BTW, being an RT and seeing patients while selling supplies and so forth--is that NOT a HUGE conflict of interest? as well as medical ethics? I am surprised that you might serve patients as an RT...if, in fact, you are an RT.

We may be patients, but we are opinionated and generally educated on this forum. We are also a community. I am sorry that you did not choose to join our community, but to separate yourself so effectively. That is sad for you.

Two points here.

1. How can Arteecat's supplies be "cheaper" when cpap.com does price match?

2. Many, many other forums don't allow the posting of other internet addresses -- they remove them. That's why old Art takes advantage of our great forum.

Yep. His links to his site have been removed from all his posts on the apneasupport forums. C'mon, if you're gonna spam, at least make yourself hard to track and use a different username.

Thank you, College Girl! Keep up the good work!
I for one will never go to Arteecat's website. Don't like things handled that way.

Thanks CG! I noticed the same thing with this guy. I was wondering what could be done about it. Now I know for next time!

I like the Crime Dog avatar, but isn't that penguin doing some shadow boxing?? I've heard of boxing kangaroos, so maybe the Pugulistic Penguin is what we have here.

Doc, doc, doc.

Isn't that a penguin from the movie, "Happy Feet"? (LOL)

(Great film, BTW)

Savion Glover's choreography and tap dancing were miraculously translated.

But, if you see shadow boxing, who am I to argue?

Kudos to the great detective work. I'd say College Girl is an A student.
Thanks.

Good to see you posting, Doc!

I think companies should just give CPAP stuff away for free...why bother charging at all?
