Considering the band???
There are valid reasons for not blocking or ignoring a poster like this. She posts bits and pieces of information taken out of context to support her position, contradicts herself constantly and is looking to validate her self described "failed band" by posting constantly to "newbies" that the band is ALWAYS a poor choice and will fail eventually, causing permanent and irreversable damage. The people who are new and come to this forum for information, advice and support will get it (or what she puts out there as fact) from her AS LONG AS THEY AGREE WITH HER.
She has gone so far as to tell people just days out from their surgery that they made the wrong choice and their band WILL fail, it is just a matter of time.
Those of us who attempt to engage the poster in a dialog to encourage her to be rational and adult do so to let those considering WLS to do their research, consider the facts and to out the OP for the she is.

If we ALL would just start ignoring certain folk when they post instead of arguing a certain point only to get more feedback and on and on we go with a thread a mile long, maybe, just maybe the fighting wouldn't go on. Don't get suckered in is all I'm saying. Don't give the poster a reason to go on, and on, and on....and on.....and on.......and on...... I'll probably get a reply to this too BUT not gonna read it.Oh and Steph is not going on, and on , and on , and on.................??? lol

I have a couple of questions for you Maria...
1. What research did YOU do that led you to think that the lap-band was the best surgery for you?
2. Is Formerly Fluffy a company? I see that you are listed as CEO. If it's a charity, great, what charity do you represent and how much of the contributions go to the charity and how much goes for administrative costs? If it's not a charity and is a for profit, you may be in violation of OH's TOS by advertising on every post.
BTW, I am not going "on and on" I am simply holding you accountable to what you post.
