Well one thing that I do know about BHM is that the home page needs to really be updated. The discussion forum is no longer "new" either. They need to remove that.
Girl now if Russell doesn't even maintain his daggone forum software, do you REALLY think he's gonna update the HOMEPAGE??? Palease!!! Once he got mods to do his forum administrative work for him (for FREE), he left that site alone.. He does BARE minimum to keep things running..
Oh and you can't say any of this on BHM.. The mods get angry and supress any expression of displeasure with the way things are run on BHM.. Even if they are the truth..

Hey Divavocals, yeah I was out, u know it probably is an excellent site for good info, but I guess I did not have the motivation to deal with some of the ego-trippin crap!
I's not what folks say it's how they say things that make me wanna blow

I havent had a good experience there. The women their can be so rude and cruel with their responses to your posts. I think they pick fights because its entertaining. They just go in a thread hunting for a cat fight. I started a thread in it was like i was in a boxing ring. Do any of yall ever visit LHCF and posted?
as far as i'm concerned i don't post there altho i'm a member, i just lurk b/c i think their hair information is awsome and much more informative and they study it down to a science IMO more than BHM's growth section.. to me BHM's growth section appears to make up stuff as they go along without producing convincing results for my liking.. but at least i see real results of the women's hair that is actually growing very long on the LHCF as opposed to seeing any overwhelming results on BHM's growth section.. i could less if they are catty altho i've not experienced that b/c like i said i don't post, i just read and learn.. i'm not trying to make friends i'm trying to see what they've learned or their experiences on what products give good results.. and IMO there is much more fighting and drama at BHM than there ever has been on LCHF..
to me BHM's growth section appears to make up stuff as they go along without producing convincing results for my liking..
My friend and I were JUST saying this today about BHM's growth section.. What's more I find it interesting that folks get ANGRY when presented with true facts about some of their growth claims or questionable regimes.. (I'm still SMH over the whole notion of using Gynalotrimin as a hair growth aid)

Hey Diva what's good Ma'? I'm Still over here doin' the dang thang.
My POV--
When you put yourself out there as a resource (LHCF, BHM etc) why act ignorant when someone approaches you with questions. I reiterate it was far too much stupidity for me, I was not of the mind to lay low and soak up the info. Where was I going to gain clarification if I had questions about the info provided? Now I will visit certain sections(BHM) because they had a lot of outside resources listed there, but as far as on the regular interacting...it was a comedy hour, except wasn't a damned thing funny when I had in genuine folks coming at me lopsided.
"This trick had the temerity to call me a troll, and tell all the vendors to beware of me b/c I did not know what I wanted...HELL...that's why I was asking questions!!!
Tell ya' how psychotic she is ...she and I had the tiff originally inside of PM and this imp went and posted the entire private message so that she could get her "gang" to cosign her BS. So many of the members chimed in behind her b/c she got them supplies and did favors for them. Now what that let you know? ? ?
They want to pride themselves on being a resource but wont do the work to back it up.
It is a felony the
stupidity, and childishness!!
I am a very resourceful woman, and I have found individuals that are helpful like Diva vocals, and less than a handful of others who are very approachable
SOOOO To all those morons who tried ti Diss-Miss-Anomis
Hey Diva what's good Ma'? Still over hear doin' the dang thang.
Hey ma.. What's going on super soul sistah!!!! Now you know I'm ALWAYS gonna be here!!! This was my ORIGINAL forum home!!!

well i'm not saying that everybody has had problems at BHM but i was a mod there so i do know when there was trouble.. there have had their share if not more than a few trolls at BHM..
I tend to ignore those "magical growth potions" threads that seems to go waaay overboard, but other than that the growth section is my fav. I love the challenges and progress shots. I try to ignore the drama but sometimes it get so crazy you have to just take a break and relax somewhere else.

Well whatever a troll is, it did not include me, nor define my situation, once again it makes me sore b/c some (not all women of color) do act just that way in their shops. I am speaking from my very own lived experiences.
As a moderator, I try to be an ambassador when there may be some disconect instead of a childish instagator of silliness. I take my hair, skin and nails quite seriously, it's not about vanity, but rather health promotion.
At the time the mods sat there and did absolutely nada. I snatched out and went on my merry way.
Sexibeach, you breathing air into this topic is an excellent thing b/c newbies((and other members)) in need of assistance, have a variety of feed back about what goes on in certain forums, and that is a good thing. They can move forward with an open mind and have thier own individual experience. Folks turn to these forums for all sorts of reasons, hair loss d/t allopecia, Cancer, aging, etc they need real answers, not antagonism.
I would tell anybody....TAKE WHAT YOU NEED AND LEAVE THE REST, FOR SOMEONE ELSE WHO CAN USE IT, YO.

oh no not you for sure, i could have named those that were trollish, they would get band and come back again like the night of the living dead.. which is something i could never understand.. thanks so much i'm only telling the truth, and it wasn't just trollish behavior in the growth section it was everywhere on that board.. i just couldn't get with alot of those potions they made up for hair growth, and b/c if you weren't apart of their group of friends they didn't listen to you, or want you might have to offer.. i didn't need information from them i was only trying to give information to them, and they would act like i wasn't there even tho i was a mod.. so like you say take what you need and leave the rest!!
and yes that's why i put that thread together for those women that do suffer with hair loss, cancer, and allopecia to learn knowledge about lf's.. b/c if the information was at this forum they could learn it here b/c it does matter to women going thru hair loss issues.. i started the newbie threads there, and that's why people go there, but it would be nice to have the information here as well..

Let me know if I can be of assistance in any way.....seems like you really know your way around, and we need people like you in here...i find that knowlegeable folks like yourself are just easier to approach, and ask for help.
