Actually, it obviously makes you angry when people like me on this
newsgroup prevent people like you from harming innocent people who may
be duped by your unsupported claims for the near-miraculous powers of
your Ginseng into paying inflated prices for it. You much prefer places
like the Curezone, where the moderators keep anyone who may question,
even politely, the prevailing belief there in all medicines
"alternative," because such questioning, no matter how much it is based
on sound science and how politely put, makes the people there
uncomfortable and inhibits people like you from selling your overpriced
herb.

You shamelessly make outrageous advertising claims here for your MLM ginseng
product, which is against the charter of this NEWSGROUP. When those claims
are challenged, you embarrass yourself by displaying your total ignorance of
how ginseng works in the human body, and exposing your product claims as
lies. Now you whine that the people who uncovered those lies are "mean
spirited." Would it be more kindly to allow you to befoul the newsgroup with
your lying spam unopposed?

OK, you've convinced me. In your case it is not a consciouly mean spirit,
it is a delusional disorder.

Delusional Disorder

This group of disorders is characterized by the development either of a
single delusion or of a set of related delusions which are usually
persistent and sometimes lifelong. The delusions are highly variable in
content. Often they are persecutory, hypochondriacal, or grandiose, but they
may be concerned with litigation or jealousy.

The content of the delusion, and the timing of its emergence, can often be
related to the individual's life situation, e.g. persecutory delusions in
members of minorities. Apart form actions and attitudes directly related to
the delusion or delusional system, affect, speech, and behaviour are normal.

I started out quite polite and sincere with you, and you know it. I only
became less polite as your refusal to present evidence to support your
grandiose claims, coupled with your obvious interest in making money off
of desperate or gullible patients who will pay inflated prices for your
herb powder, became more and more apparent to me over the course of
several weeks. My sincerity irks you, simply because it is a genuine
interest in trying to prevent people from wasting huge amounts of money
on your unproven remedy.

Now who's the "mean-spirited" one? You're the one characterizing those

mean-spirited and vicious to try to discredit someone with an ad hominem

I'm sure that you would like to try and make yourself feel justified in your
behavior,
but the truth remains that while this was set up as a newsgroup, it runs
exactly like
a chartroom. Serious newsgroups don't run like this because it is not in any
way
constructive. I come here for the sake of the many who read my posts,
understand
them and make their lives better. These people understand alternative ways
and are
too intimidated to post here because they fear (rightly) that they will be

they express their views.

So, get it straight this is a usenet CHATROOM.
