I have to comment on this. I joined Sue's group to learn more and also
to share what I thought was useful knowledge. Sue's group intro says
this:

"This is the place to talk about doctors, treatments, medications,
pain medications, support, pharmacists, or anything in relation to
pain or pain management. We are not like other groups; everything you
write will be posted (as long as you do not curse, flame anyone, or
submit spam). You can talk about doctors' names, medication names and
amounts, pharmacies' names, anything related to chronic pain. "

My understanding of that statement was that is was okay to post
something which could be perceived as an ad, even though that was not
my intention. I contacted Sue BEFORE I posted, she put me on moderated
status, then called me a spammer for my message. Either I totally
misunderstand that intro or it is not true.
