I think forums do the best they can. The nature of forums lends itself to promoters.
Get this:
I was on a cancer site for 10 months while my husband fought a courageous battle.
There was a thread for folks who chose hospice vs. further treatment.
It was infiltrated by a pharmaceutical company touting some 'new' tx that was to be reason to d/c hospice and go back into tx.
How's that for mean and horrible and unspeakable? False hope for someone who has lost hope.
People are simply people no matter the venue.
I just thank the universe that there are many many many more kind than unkind and good than bad.
Just my opinion.
