"Rehashing?" that's what we do here! You had to know that this move was going to create some reaction on the other forums. Your cohort is even referring to herself as "Ms Controversy" on the cpaptalk CHAT. This thread will die down when nobody has anything further to say on the subject. That's the way all the threads work... it's the nature of these forums. The one's that aren't heavily moderated, that is.

Mike, I doubt you will be making any friends on your new forum if you continue to roll your eyes at legitimate comments like wader's and others on this forum.

I for one, am glad this thread has been started. I've been attending AWAKE meetings for a long time. I was always hoping to see my favorite internet support group (cpaptalk) join forces with the preeminent in-person support organization. But I guess that was not what the ASAA wanted. I don't have time for two forums and I won't be leaving cpaptalk to join the ASAA forum, so I'll have to continue to live a double life with my cpap support.

Well at least they can't call it the "Asleep Apnea Asociation". Someone is there now to pass the buck. Or is that collect the buck $. Whatever. I need some sleep.

I just think their site is VEEEERRRRY SSLLOOOOOOW. Put me to sleep waiting for it to load.

Guest- I guess you need to upgrade from carrier pidgeon to cable because it loads as fast as any site I use.

Oh for the love of god!!!!! You guys do this just to torment me, don't you. This incessant bickering makes me so uncomfortable! So why do I bother reading it? Good question! Its hard to explain... Its kind of like a car wreck; awful to look at, but for some reason you can't take your eyes off it.

Some like the idea of a new forum. Some don't. To each, his own.

How many different ways can we write the same thing??? (5 pages worth of ways, apparently...)

Hi neversleeps,

I just checked - there are 1812 registered users on this forum. So we do have a long way to go to democratically allow everyone to state their position.

You're not trying to stifle debate are you?

Bet you had to check back and see what the very last poster had to say! No brain fog for you, actively want stay on top of things - good for you!

Now I haven't actually counted but if you exclude the three major combatants - I think you may the most active poster on this thread.

Ain't it great to utilize your democratic right! I would caution you though, try to allow a few others to get a couple of words in .

Never thought this could be so much fun! Just great to be alive!

So - what do you all think? I noticed many of you have not yet responded.

Cable ...You still use wires. ...

It seems to load slow for me also.

Maybe cause I'm not one of the "Chosen"

Hi Marie.

I was about to delete the "spam" post that resurrected this thread and then I started reading it...... I thought of making a post as it was an interesting discussion......but, I couldn't decide who to quote.......

Glad to see you didn't let it go back into oblivion.

I hope some of those people who posted back then will jump in and let us know how they are. I always enjoyed reading their thought-provoking wisdom.

did you really need to revive a dead 3 year old thread Marie with that comment?

This thread was idiotic to begin with, much less worth reviving as the throught process behind it was complaining about this forum as to why another cpap forum was needed, if you haven't figured out that answer after 3 years, maybe you do need another forum.

Interesting that most of the comments come from the admin of that other forum.

Has the traffic dropped off that much over there due to all the censorship that you had to come back and revive this one?

someday science will catch up to what I'm saying...

Snoredog,

It was revived by a spambot.

But, maybe this one is appropriate:
