Well a girl leaves her computer for a day and people start calling Nicole (mom) out on inaccuracies in the story and Nicole pulls all her posts from the page. Must pull all evidence. This is why I like to copy and paste people. Once again I will ask you to copy stuff you see when you see it just in case I am not around! Just highlight (and on facebook scroll through the thread and click on any "see more" at the end of any longer comments) the entire thread and copy it to word or most of you know me on FB just copy it into a PM there.
So lets cut to Nicole saying she will no longer be posting updates because of all the "mean people"
Praying for Memphis

Dana Linger Listen, the only people that are important are those you love. If you have their support then you have everything you need there. Stay true to yourself. But, you have to remember that so many people have put their hearts into other stories ...and the ended up feeling deceived. Everybody needs to put themselves into the other persons shoes and give this family the benefit of your doubt. It will only benefit Memphis to have a mommy who isn't mad from things on here....right? Just prove everybody wrong is what I pray for along with Memphis' health and happiness. People don't know you personally so they may feel different than someone who knows you. In this day and time, it is hard to trust people. Lets just try and trust. I hope I didn't say anything to offend, that is not my purpose. I just want everyone to understand how each other may be feeling. When a baby is involved, it is so hard not to feel protective on either side. Love you lil Memp!See More

Memphis and your family are in so many daily prayers and there are so many who really do care and think of your family as part of their family now... he is a true inspiration to so many of us. :) CharSee More

Mary Neddo Dunbar I agree. That is completely insane that the hospital does not know the name of the agency they hired. Furthermore, the agency will absolutely know the first and last name (at the very least) of the nurse that is employed with them. They will also have SS number, DOB, and address. This just does not add up. Praying for youto get some answers soon.

Memphis part 3 Nurse unknown
Praying for Memphis Sorry guys I talked to CPA and Hubbard township police yesterday. They are trying to track down the nurse. Seems no one knows who the nursing agency is and we only her first name. Police are talking about child endangerment charges. He is doing good today and we should go home on monday. Also they found out he has brittle bones but doing tests to find out why.

Stephanie Kessler Don't you know the name of the agency that sent a nurse to your home? I mean, I know there's a lot going on and you have a lot on your plate but before I let anyone into my home to care for a medically fragile child I would have a little more info on her than her first name. If he has brittle bones then it wouldn't be negligence on anyone's part. Kids with that disease break just from sitting for long periods of time. What about the brain bleed? That wouldn't be caused by brittle bones. I'm trying to understand what's going on but I'm confused. Poor Memphis! He's dealt with too much in his short life already!4 hours ago · 5 peopleLoading...
Praying for Memphis I know the name of the agency. I was just meaning the hospital, police, or Cps know much of them. I guess they are fairly new. They were told by me to do a background check and drug test before she came in which I just found out was not done. I didn't hire them the hospital did. I called the agency earlier in the week and asked to have her replaced because I felt she was to young and inexperienced. They told me they would work on finding someone else.

You don't get a brain bleed from brittle bones! Someone hurt this innocent child and that someone needs to pay, dearly!

Memphis Part 2 brain bleed
Praying for Memphis
Cat scan came back that Memphis has a brain bleed on the left side of his head. Bone scan is not back yet. They are also waiting for a neurosurgeon to see if they need to do surgery on his head. May have to move him to Cleveland.

I'm keeping all of you in my prayers. May you get answers and may he be healed quickly. (AND, that nurse deserves to go to jail if she did something to cause this!)

Dana Linger Please forgive me for asking but I know many are wondering, where you not home when the nurse was with him? I would think he would have screamed in agony for a long time. I am praying for Memphis and am so so sorry this happened to this lil guy who has been through so much in his short life already. I imagine there is going to be a background check on this nurse to find out if any other people in her care has ever been harmed in any way.

Yesterday at 1:16pm.
Dana Linger No, I didn't mean that. I was wondering if she went grocery shopping, was taking kids to school or whatever. I was just wondering if the nurse was home alone with Memphis. A nurse is there to take care of him so I don't normally consider th...em a stranger. I wouldn't blame Nicole at all if she had to do errands. Again, I don't think I implied she was leaving her child with a total stranger. If she is a home nurse, she had to be checked out and many people rely on them to be at home while the parent, and in some cases ( in elderly care) the children go do what needs to be done. Where did you get your implication from?Yesterday at 1:17pm.
Jessica Williams-Bajek This could be why his leg was hurting because when you shake a baby not only is their brain effected but also the long ones (arms and legs) can become fractured.

Cat scan came back that Memphis has a brain bleed on the left side of his head. Bone scan is not back yet. They are also waiting for a neurosurgeon to see if they need to do surgery on his head. May have to move him to Cleveland.

Praying for Memphis Dr said looks like he was shaken or dropped. They are gonna call in an expert dr on child abuse to try to tell exactly what it is. Nurseing company saying they think the nurse would have said if she dropped him. I talked to her and she said she doesn't know how it happened. I don't care how it happened I just don't want my baby to go through this.

Memphis Part 1
Not on Triplet Connection but lets follow the Saga of Memphis. This is a real little boy who we only wish all the best for in lift. However, something just doesn't add up with the parents. So much of their story and combativeness and anger with anyone who questions them or suggests they do anything different is just a red flag. I will tell the early story from when I was first alerted to this story because she pulled any post that disagreed with her approach or suggested she handle the situation different. Anything that didn't tell her that her aggressive approach was the way to go "wasn't supportive and we don't have time for non supportive people".
I will ask someone who has followed the story to give a more detailed background. But basically Memphis is one of infant triplets who needed a transplant. Was in the hospital but Mom wanted the hospital to release or transfer AMA. Mom says she went to court and won but the hospital refused to transfer him in violation of court order. (I stopped reading for a while) Now he has been released home and 12 hours after being home the home health nurse has broken his leg,back and caused a brain bleed. But nobody knows the name of the nurse or nursing agency. The police are looking for her.
Praying for Memphis
Can someone tell me how a 9 month old that does not walk or crawl yet and is in a nurses care for 12 hours ends up with a broken leg?

He isn't confined to bed, he gets a ton of blood work every week to check all theses level, he had bloodwork last night everything was normal. He gets vitimans added bit to his formula plus bit drops and extra iron bit d and vit c. I am sure it's not his diet. I just don't know...

Yesterday at 9:29am.

Brittany Berghammer I always want to think the best of people I don't want to think he was dropped but seriously what else could it have been if all his vit. Levels are alright and checked on a regular basis. I cannot believe how much this little guy has gone through in such a short amount of time ....he is going to have quite the story to tell when he is older how he overcame anything that was thrown at him. God has a plan for him and I am starting to thing it is a big plan too!
Yesterday at 9:54am.
Michelle Matyi I know a baby this happened to. The dad had him on his lap and the baby suddenly jumped/rolled and the dad tried to catch him and ended up grabbing his leg and it broke. In a situation like that, it was a total accident, and accidents can h...appen. But you would think that a trained nurse would realize something was wrong and let you know to get that baby some help. Sorry to hear he is going through this. And I would definitely report the situation to the nurses supervisors and whatever authorities need to be involved. Having an accident is very different than trying to cover it up by not mentioning it.See More

The good thing (i guess) is children bones heal very quickly and easily. Praying for you and Memphis. Im stressed out enough by the whole situation, it must be a million times worse for you after the last year.
Yesterday at 12:48pm.
Dana Linger Michelle, was that story you were telling of of a 9 month old. Even though he has been through what he has been, at his age, I wouldn't think that it would break that easily. And, as we are learning, he has a brain bleed so it seems more to... the story. The nurse, even if his bones are delicate (which, as I stated earlier, other bones would have broken sooner) he would have cried tremendously, so that nurse would have known if there was an accidental break. Hiding it seems to me that it was an intentional act (at least the hiding part). This makes me sick! THIS BABY HAS BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH!!!!!!Yesterday at 1:01pm.
Rick-Amanda Minor O My Goodness poor baby I hope and pray that everything is ok this poor little guy has been throu so much now this it is just such a shame Everyone thinks they can protect their kids from bad things and bad people but some times bad people and be in good people clothes I am so sorry for what ever happened I hope you little boy is ok God has been with him all this long road of his little life may he help him threw this also Your Family is in our Prayers!!!
Yesterday at 1:08pm.Joseph Kaluza OMG. I would really look into that. Don't take no excuses, take legal action. I hope everything works out for you.
Yesterday at 2:10pm.
Michelle Matyi Dana, yes, the baby was about ten months. And I agree with you. Those parents knew immediately something was wrong, and this nurse should have too. However it happened, it should not have been ignored. And now with the new results, this is just totally unbelievable. This baby has gone through enough and should not have to worry about anything else.

The nurse, even if his bones are delicate (which, as I stated earlier, other bones would have broken sooner) he would have cried tremendously, so that nurse would have known if there was an accidental break. Hiding it seems to me that it was an intentional act (at least the hiding part). This makes me sick! THIS BABY HAS BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH!!!!!!Yesterday at 1:01pm.
Rick-Amanda Minor O My Goodness poor baby I hope and pray that everything is ok this poor little guy has been throu so much now this it is just such a shame Everyone thinks they can protect their kids from bad things and bad people but some times bad people and be in good people clothes I am so sorry for what ever happened I hope you little boy is ok God has been with him all this long road of his little life may he help him threw this also Your Family is in our Prayers!!!
Yesterday at 1:08pm.Joseph Kaluza OMG. I would really look into that. Don't take no excuses, take legal action. I hope everything works out for you.
Yesterday at 2:10pm.
Michelle Matyi Dana, yes, the baby was about ten months. And I agree with you. Those parents knew immediately something was wrong, and this nurse should have too. However it happened, it should not have been ignored. And now with the new results, this is just totally unbelievable. This baby has gone through enough and should not have to worry about anything else.

Jessica Daff Yeah I be looking into that!!!

Not trying to start anything, but I think a lot of us are wondering what the decision was regarding the banned posters... could the mods post something? I hope this isn't the case, but it seems to be the policy to ignore the questions until people don't care anymore. It would be great to get an explanation.
The broad sweeping bannings caught many off-guard, and it would be nice to know that the mods are at least re-evaluating, whatever the end decision may be.
Thanks!

With all due respect, I realize we are not the owners or the moderators. However, the people who post on here ARE the forum. When you start banning some of the most helpful members, ban other members for sticking up for them, and delete years of helpful posts YOU are killing the forum. I think it is quite clear that even members who do not agree with the perspective of the banned members do not want them gone. Without members who are willing to post on here and a searchable archive there is no Triplet Connection. As someone who has received a lot of wonderful advice and support from here the last 4 years I would hate to see that happen.
Moderators/owners, please don't let your anger at certain members keep you from thinking about the big picture. If you want this to continue being a valuable resource you have to let us talk to each other honestly. Sometimes you are not going to agree with what is said. If you don't like a post, delete it. Don't ban the member that posted it. Also, when questions arise to the monitors, please answer them. I think after all this we deserve to know what is going on. Thank you.

I apologize. I have not been on TC in a while. My son Nolan got hit by a vehicle in May and well, TC is not my top priority right now. I'm sorry I have not answered your PM's or emails, I have however forwarded them to Jeff.
On a side note, I do not have the "power" to ban people, I believe the webmaster/board owner would have that authority. I am not the only moderator on here. Mods have a little gray icon next to their name. Admin have yellow.
Thanks.

She single handedly helped shape the mom I am today. My family eats healthier and I am a more involved mom, with not much to fear because of her strength. I am seriously appalled that she was banned. Her advice was generally spot on.
None of us are without faults, and I am sure I can think of a few members that have saddened many of us with their behavior. She has got to b about number 98 on the problem list. It is a shame such a helpful mom has been singled out for someones personal vendetta.

Word.
There's a good chance she had some not-so-great stuff to say about me in the past, but I don't really care because I appreciate her perspective.
mstar, starburst, whoever you are this week, I would totally join any triplet forum you choose to host. Because you make me chuckle and you're an awesome resource on red dye and free ranging chickens. And your triplet wisdom is much appreciated.

Yep.
There is so much I've learned from Michele just from her posts here and her blog. It also says a lot that her kids are smart, happy, well-rounded individuals.
So she called a newbie out... I think she said what more than a few of us were thinking (it's pretty obvious the poster I'm talking about didn't want advice; she wanted to flaunt and brag).
I'm sure the mods have better things to do than chase down her latest screennames anyway...

She just added me on FB last week. Had no idea she was mstar until I put 2 and 2 together.
BRING HER BACK!!!
That newbie said some horrible things. Was she banned? She probably went running with her tail between her legs. It's sad that the long time members get banned and that a newbie can ruin it for the rest of us. I would NEVER say things the newbie said. Ever.

I agree. Her advice has helped me more times than I can remember.
In the 4 years I have been on here people have done worse and not been banned. Besides, the other poster was hardly innocent. She came looking for a fight and insulted a lot of members.
Bring back MSTAR!

And while we are at it why not bring back Madmolly too?
These are ladies that I have come to know during my almost 7 years on TC. I am FB friends with them. I know if I need some advice (or a good head smack for being stupid) these ladies will be there. Unfortunately on the internet you can't hear someone's tone. I just know that they very rarely attack anyone for asking legitimate questions. And I have come to expect that MSTAR will reply fully with tongue in cheek candor.
What do you say TC?

Ditto. I don't know MadMolly personally, but I do know that she and I had a misunderstanding at one point and she actually called me personally to apologize. She went to a LOT of trouble to reach out, and she was SO NICE on the phone. In this day & age, there aren't a lot of people who would bother, especially when the situation was a little uncomfortable anyway, and since the fault was mutual and not solely hers!
MadMolly is an experienced mom who always has fantastic advice, and is such a valuable member of the forum. Like MSTAR, she can be a little blunt, but honestly it's kind of nice to know that you can count on someone to be perfectly truthful AND to offer advice about how you could do something differently and perhaps improve your parenting.

What in the world did Madmolly do to get banned? I can't think of anything she has said or done in a very long time that would cause disciplinary action. Bring Madmolly back too!
While we're at it, how about akcmachine? She was banned lately too for no reason I can think of. I read the post that supposedly got her banned and it didn't seem bad to me.

Not to mention that I remember Madmolly was the one who made me start to question "who is they?". She inspired me to do my own research when it came to shots for the boys -not just go with the flow -but find what would work best for MY family.
Both of these women have made an impact on my parenting skills. Isn't that what forums like these are all about?
Why is it that so many are being banned in the past few days? Helpful, caring members who contribute to the forums are few and far between, please stop taking away the members that some of these new mommas may learn the most from.

OK I was going to say Lea wasn't banned that was a long time ago and they reinstated her. But I did a quick search and her posts have all been pulled. What the heck. Did I miss something? I feel like I am in High School with all this banning. Jeff and Janet I assume you have some moderators running the shop and they are not representing you well here. They are making you and TC look childish and petty. I hope you can rein in control.

I don't think you missed anything, Tasha... I think people are being banned by association.
Lea and Helene are two people that I was surprised to hear got banned. Michele? I was kind of expecting that, even though I think she was justified (but that's not how things work around here ).

That is just ridiculous. If nothing has been done to warrant a banning, and I have been here everyday several times a day this past week while in bed ill so I don't think I would miss it, then something needs to be done. I know Jeff had gotten mods to run things and there was talk of more mods coming on board due to illness in the family but nobody ever came out and said they were a new mod. But the new feel of the board makes me feel they did give others mod powers and it is being abused. These banning just seem so vindictive, childish and immature to put it nicely. I can't imagine that this is how Jeff would want the forum run. I speak of Jeff more because he was our mod mostly and he was quite reasonable. I haven't seen Janet around the forum as much but I am sure she wouldn't want TC's forum turn into this either.
You know the banning are childish when you have people who have traditionally been foes on most issues of those who have been banned calling to have them resinstated because even they see banning them from the site is stupid and idiotic and an abuse of power.
What we should be calling for is the removal of he mods.

I agree! Madmolly is a wealth of information, and she has always been there to answer my questions.
I think the board would suffer a lot without her.

MSTAR & I are often on opposite sides of any argument, and I do often feel that she is a little harsh and blunt. But she always makes me think. She's one person I know will always give it to me straight, and I appreciate that. I'm a better mom for having her as a member here, challenging the way I do things and offering a completely different perspective.
There is a difference between being obnoxious just for the heck of it, and being a little prickly by stating what a lot of others are thinking but would never have the nerve to say. MSTAR falls into the second category.
She is a valuable contributing member of TC, and I hope that she will be allowed to rejoin.

Yes! Please bring her and MadMolly back. There are many others on here that deserve to be banned before them. I am friends with both of them on FB as well, and they are great role models.
If anyone is going to be banned, it should be the newbies that come here intentionally insulting longtime members. (Or the members who constantly start drama and then say they are leaving only to come back the next day) Certainly NOT the members who are doing nothing more than sticking up for themselves.
Different perspectives are what makes this forum so great. They shouldn't be punished for having one that is different than yours...

Bring MSTAR back! Who else am I going to get chicken-butchering advice from?? Seriously, she has a lot of great advice to offer.
And bring back MadMolly!!

But, then, we'll lose out on all of the fun trying to figure out what her alias of the week is.
I'm kidding, obviously. I totally agree, she brings a lot to this forum and it is disappointing that she was banned. I must have missed Madmolly getting banned again, but the same goes for her. I often think the 2 of them are 1/2 nuts, but their posts are always honest and direct and even though I often don't agree, they always give me something to think about. This is a better board with them here.

MSTAR says things straight, she keeps both her feet on the ground she is practical and she is not afraid to say something you might not like, with a great sense of humor.
I've never ever found her comments rude or inpolite, maybe harsh sometime, sarcastic, but com'onwe don't live in Wonderland.
I love people who speaks clearly, I need that, as many other people. Let her back, it'a a huge loss for TC.

I agree, please bring back these moms. I can't believe that all of Lea's posts were pulled. She has provided valuable insight and lots and lots of information to moms in need. That should not be pulled from the board.
I understand the need to be sensitive to new members and I have been surprised at how the tone of the forum has changed since I joined almost 9 years ago.
But, this last newbie was incredibly rude and disrepectful to those of us with surviving triplets. I've always appreciated how sensitive the members here are to those of us that do not have our triplets intact. I've always felt like a member here even though I just have two, not three.
I would hope that the moderators would educated someone as rude as Roe was. We have had fakers (too many to list) that have hurt members here. Even though some stir the pot and even though some posts should get pulled because of the direction they take - has it really been enough to ban long time members?
Please reconsider.
Marie
Edited to add: generally speaking the intent of those here is to put our children's needs first. In many cases the discussions become heated because the decision of a parent doesn't always seem to be in the best interest of the children. When people suggested it might not be a good idea to go to 37weeks it was because we know how quickly things can change and how quickly that change can lead to tragedy.
I have no idea why Helene & Lea were banned...

I do not know MStar very well, as I am pretty new here myself, but the bit I have talked to her and asked for advice and she has answered, I do appreciate her input. She is one of the ONLY blogs that I actually follow because I can not get enough of her advice and stories! She is very well grounded and seems to be just an all around good person.
This is a forum, which means that people with all inputs and perspectives should be allowed to post. When you put a bunch of people together, particularly women, there are going to be all kinds of opinions and people will NOT agree with everything that everyone said and *gasp* drama. That is what makes this place great. You say something stupid and insult almost every triplet mom on here (like roe did) then by all means, ALL opinions should be able to come out. It is not any different than a post asking for advice and all opinions coming out. Bring her back and let her have a different opinion than you, we all appreciate different views, that is why we are here.

Is there any chance the mods would consider giving the banned people a probationary return? I don't know if the mods here use suspensions or not, but a month long suspension might work better than outright banning since is is easy to make up another user name and return to the board.

The more I thought about this all night the more I have become convinced there are new moderators have have been given banning powers. I just can't believe anyone who created an organization to help ALL triplet moms could behave this petty and childish as to ban people from a message board to help other triplet moms. Madmolly (lea) has not done anything and to ERASE all her past posts is appalling to me. She has provided information on children with special needs that could help mothers now and in the future as well as so many other topics. MSTAR (Michelle) was a little rough on the newbie but the situation wasn't of her own making. It was a build up. Many of us have snapped, myself included and I don't think it warrants banning. If it does I should have been banned several years ago. But I became a productive member of the community after I snapped on another person here didn't I? I just couldn't take the insanity anymore. And many of you here don't even know what I am talking about do you?
At this point I think the insanity is on the side of the moderators and I am snapping again. i just can't stand by and see the forum fall apart and become run by some vindictive person who is going to ban all the people who has dared ever disagree with her. And that is how it appears. So after 10 years here I risk banning (and I fully expect it here) to say I will not be renewing my financial membership of the triplet connection and encourage other to do the same until the current moderation is removed and the banned members are returned.

I do agree.. Completely.
I want real answers. I don't want just the positive side of things. We can't even provide that here anymore. It all has to be sunshine and roses.
It is clear that this forum is going downhill with the new moderators. I used to recommend many new Triplet moms here. I can't say that I will anymore. I would rather them also know the real answers rather than the "positive" ones.
Thankfully, most of us have found each other on FB where we can freely say what we feel without fear of being "Banned". Mabye it is time that we create a group over there. Then if someone decides that others are offensive, they can choose to remove themselves.

Where are the responses from TC? Obviously, we are all upset that they have done this....where is their side of the story?
I hope this thread ends up on the other site as I am sure it will be erased soon enough.
Both these women and Helene have given invaluable information throughout the years and both of which I consider our " forum experts". Michelle on her knowledge of red dye and eating healthier; Lea on immunizations and autism. I am disgusted that Lea's posts have been erased. What a loss for ALL OF US.
I think we deserve an explanation and for all these women to be put back online. How childish to ban them.

I read this board all the way from Singapore (UK expat) - there are not a lot of triplet here in Singapore, so I have learnt a lot on this board. I get some great ideas and some great perspectives. I really do appreciate this resource.
MSTAR is one of the posters I really admire. I also read her blog. She is hardly a troublemaker. What she does is say what she thinks - I wish I was a little more forthright like her. And the whole mess this time was caused by her saying something really worth saying. My triplets are almost 4 and I have cried so many times through the years reading of babies who are just born to early to make it. Or have difficulties related to prematurity. I think anyone reading would have told Roe to slow down. (I am hours behind here so it has almost always all been said before I even read it - or I would have said slow down - it might be fine but it's not worth the risk). How it deteriated from there - well it just got awful, that throwaway 'I don't care' comment. Personally I don't think Michelle should be the one banned. And I think this board will lose more than she will if she decides to stay away.

It does add a whole new dimension doesn't it. It goes from a member who was maybe a little harsh being "punished" (which being permanently banned I feel far to extreme) to Triplet Connection as an organization looking petty and vindictive by banning and erasing these other members posts for major infraction. Is it guilt by association because they are friends? Because she laughed at a post someone else posted that was pulled? What warrants banning from Triplet Connection and erasure of all your posts? Those posts had great searchable information that could help other mothers that have a child/ren with autism. And there are others that have been banned. How many? They can't vary well stand up and say I have been banned! Unless they are on face book. I hope they are at least reading and are coming to facebook.

I usually stay out of all of this kind of stuff, but I agree that the posts being erased is kind of ridiculous. Most of the time, I usually search for a topic I have a question on and comb through the advice/info these moms have been through and are knowledgeable about. I also find their advice refreshing and funny, most of the time, ha! But this banning people and erasing posts is getting a little petty and absurd.

You can tell the boards have changed in the sense that I remember when I first joined 2 yrs ago threads flew on here. Always questions and advice being thrown left and right.
Has anyone noticed that we've been on the same page for the past 2 maybe 3 days?
It's a shame those girls are gone. HUGE mistake.
One thing I'll always remember from these boards is Lea's amazing advice toward vacs.
Good thing I don't need this place to stay in touch, I'll keep track of them crazy chicks on FB.

I really do wish that Madmolly's posts had not been deleted also. Even though we are on different sides of the fence regarding vaccinations, she has provided valuable info for parents that are undecided and want to be informed to make the best decision for their children.

I think its ironic that this banning just seems to highlight the problems with TC. If Michelle and Lea and even Kristina were not banned, the things they wrote would have been longed buried by now instead of being re-hashed again and again.

MStar may be the most controversial (and yes sometimes annoying.... but who isn't?!?) person to post on TC, but I'm totally opposed to banning someone for that. She also has a LOT of common sense and helps a LOT of people.
Everyone deserves a chance to speak their mind. If a post is inappropriate, then mods can erase it. But eliminating a person altogether from the TC message boards is overkill, and hardly fair.

For a forum full of adults, parents no less, we all sure get treated like a bunch of children by the powers that be. I don't agree with everything posted on this board but I am a big girl and can can ignore it, or if I dare, I can put on my flame resistant panties and reply with my .02 either way I am capable of making that call for myself. I do not need the mods to pick and choose what I can and can not read or ban those THEY feel are too offensive to post here. Mother May I......

There is no room for the sarcasm and rudness in way they attack some people around here. Not just the newbies who I admit where out of line, but the attack on long standing members who are also a wealth of information.
They have done this for too long and have a pattern of doing this kind of stuff.
I don't agree with there post being pulled that were helpful and insight full. But there has to be some consequences for the actions of these women.

Amy, arent you "friends" with Michele on facebook or is there another Amy Ferris ? And then you come here trashing her? Maybe I am just out of the loop (which is very possible) and this is just a joke, but seriously... if mstar is such a horrible person that attacks people, why are you "friends" on facebook?

Just for the record, deleting every post someone made for the last 5 years is just plain wrong. Whichever moderator did that should be ashamed of themselves. Whether you agree or disagree with Lea's opinions, she has really made people think around here. I have no idea why she was just banned and don't think that was right either. Deleting all that useful information from the archives is completely defeating the purpose of this forum. All the newbies have just been deprived of information for absolutely no reason.

First of all I want to say that I don't post a lot, but this forum has been awesome for me. I believe that is a place for adults/parents to get together and "discuss". Yeah we might not agree on everything and just because this is the "triplet connection" some of us don't have any other means of communication. This is where we come to get our vents, frustrations, laughs, and connections from. I think MSTAR is great! She is blunt and staight forward, and although we don't all agree with her we can "hash" it out.
Bring MStar and everyone else every banned back, and let us enjoy our conversations

Michele, Lea and Helene (any others?) should be brought back.
They are the ones who get in the trenches and are fighting for the preemie mums when offensive posters come by. So when the time zones shift and I get up and check out the threads, I can shrug and realise there is nothing more to add, because they've said it far better than I ever could.
They are the ones who offered to take time from their own vacations to sit with Feisty's older son, and to give Feisty contacts at hospitals/nursing coordinators.
These women support other TC women. I don't know them from FB, or MOM groups, I only know them from their posts here. From the day they all joined they have been unique individuals, as we all are, as is society. Being triplet parents doesn't mean we are cookie cutter parents.
They wear their opinions and hearts on their sleeves. They are wise, they are caring, and this board has benefited from them being the women they all are.

I haven't been on in about a month and it seems I completely missed what happened.
I know I could still be considered a newbie because I don't post often, I don't recognize too many user names on here, except for MSTAR and a few others...I'm shocked.
I belong to a few forums and believe me this one is fairly tame...so I can't even imagine what went down to have any mod do this.
Ban or give a 'time out'...but to pull all their posts?? NOT COOL Even when I am not an active poster (compared to most)...I rely on this forum as like a database for any questions I have...and to pull all posts of a regular poster like that makes most topics or threads just garble!!
Sucky move!! grrr

She single handedly helped shape the mom I am today. My family eats healthier and I am a more involved mom, with not much to fear because of her strength. I am seriously appalled that she was banned. Her advice was generally spot on.
None of us are without faults, and I am sure I can think of a few members that have saddened many of us with their behavior. She has got to b about number 98 on the problem list. It is a shame such a helpful mom has been singled out for someones personal vendetta.

Word.
There's a good chance she had some not-so-great stuff to say about me in the past, but I don't really care because I appreciate her perspective.
mstar, starburst, whoever you are this week, I would totally join any triplet forum you choose to host. Because you make me chuckle and you're an awesome resource on red dye and free ranging chickens. And your triplet wisdom is much appreciated.

Yep.
There is so much I've learned from Michele just from her posts here and her blog. It also says a lot that her kids are smart, happy, well-rounded individuals.
So she called a newbie out... I think she said what more than a few of us were thinking (it's pretty obvious the poster I'm talking about didn't want advice; she wanted to flaunt and brag).
I'm sure the mods have better things to do than chase down her latest screennames anyway...

She just added me on FB last week. Had no idea she was mstar until I put 2 and 2 together.
BRING HER BACK!!!
That newbie said some horrible things. Was she banned? She probably went running with her tail between her legs. It's sad that the long time members get banned and that a newbie can ruin it for the rest of us. I would NEVER say things the newbie said. Ever.

I agree. Her advice has helped me more times than I can remember.
In the 4 years I have been on here people have done worse and not been banned. Besides, the other poster was hardly innocent. She came looking for a fight and insulted a lot of members.
Bring back MSTAR!

And while we are at it why not bring back Madmolly too?
These are ladies that I have come to know during my almost 7 years on TC. I am FB friends with them. I know if I need some advice (or a good head smack for being stupid) these ladies will be there. Unfortunately on the internet you can't hear someone's tone. I just know that they very rarely attack anyone for asking legitimate questions. And I have come to expect that MSTAR will reply fully with tongue in cheek candor.
What do you say TC?
Bring 'em back please?

Ditto. I don't know MadMolly personally, but I do know that she and I had a misunderstanding at one point and she actually called me personally to apologize. She went to a LOT of trouble to reach out, and she was SO NICE on the phone. In this day & age, there aren't a lot of people who would bother, especially when the situation was a little uncomfortable anyway, and since the fault was mutual and not solely hers!
MadMolly is an experienced mom who always has fantastic advice, and is such a valuable member of the forum. Like MSTAR, she can be a little blunt, but honestly it's kind of nice to know that you can count on someone to be perfectly truthful AND to offer advice about how you could do something differently and perhaps improve your parenting.

What in the world did Madmolly do to get banned? I can't think of anything she has said or done in a very long time that would cause disciplinary action. Bring Madmolly back too!
While we're at it, how about akcmachine? She was banned lately too for no reason I can think of. I read the post that supposedly got her banned and it didn't seem bad to me.

Not to mention that I remember Madmolly was the one who made me start to question "who is they?". She inspired me to do my own research when it came to shots for the boys -not just go with the flow -but find what would work best for MY family.
Both of these women have made an impact on my parenting skills. Isn't that what forums like these are all about?
Why is it that so many are being banned in the past few days? Helpful, caring members who contribute to the forums are few and far between, please stop taking away the members that some of these new mommas may learn the most from.

OK I was going to say Lea wasn't banned that was a long time ago and they reinstated her. But I did a quick search and her posts have all been pulled. What the heck. Did I miss something? I feel like I am in High School with all this banning. Jeff and Janet I assume you have some moderators running the shop and they are not representing you well here. They are making you and TC look childish and petty. I hope you can rein in control.

I don't think you missed anything, Tasha... I think people are being banned by association.
Lea and Helene are two people that I was surprised to hear got banned. Michele? I was kind of expecting that, even though I think she was justified (but that's not how things work around here ).

That is just ridiculous. If nothing has been done to warrant a banning, and I have been here everyday several times a day this past week while in bed ill so I don't think I would miss it, then something needs to be done. I know Jeff had gotten mods to run things and there was talk of more mods coming on board due to illness in the family but nobody ever came out and said they were a new mod. But the new feel of the board makes me feel they did give others mod powers and it is being abused. These banning just seem so vindictive, childish and immature to put it nicely. I can't imagine that this is how Jeff would want the forum run. I speak of Jeff more because he was our mod mostly and he was quite reasonable. I haven't seen Janet around the forum as much but I am sure she wouldn't want TC's forum turn into this either.
You know the banning are childish when you have people who have traditionally been foes on most issues of those who have been banned calling to have them resinstated because even they see banning them from the site is stupid and idiotic and an abuse of power.
What we should be calling for is the removal of he mods.

And while we are at it why not bring back Madmolly too?
These are ladies that I have come to know during my almost 7 years on TC. I am FB friends with them. I know if I need some advice (or a good head smack for being stupid) these ladies will be there. Unfortunately on the internet you can't hear someone's tone. I just know that they very rarely attack anyone for asking legitimate questions. And I have come to expect that MSTAR will reply fully with tongue in cheek candor.
What do you say TC?
Bring 'em back please?

I agree! Madmolly is a wealth of information, and she has always been there to answer my questions.
I think the board would suffer a lot without her.

MSTAR & I are often on opposite sides of any argument, and I do often feel that she is a little harsh and blunt. But she always makes me think. She's one person I know will always give it to me straight, and I appreciate that. I'm a better mom for having her as a member here, challenging the way I do things and offering a completely different perspective.
There is a difference between being obnoxious just for the heck of it, and being a little prickly by stating what a lot of others are thinking but would never have the nerve to say. MSTAR falls into the second category.
She is a valuable contributing member of TC, and I hope that she will be allowed to rejoin.

Yes! Please bring her and MadMolly back. There are many others on here that deserve to be banned before them. I am friends with both of them on FB as well, and they are great role models.
If anyone is going to be banned, it should be the newbies that come here intentionally insulting longtime members. (Or the members who constantly start drama and then say they are leaving only to come back the next day) Certainly NOT the members who are doing nothing more than sticking up for themselves.
Different perspectives are what makes this forum so great. They shouldn't be punished for having one that is different than yours...

And bring back MadMolly!!

But, then, we'll lose out on all of the fun trying to figure out what her alias of the week is.
I'm kidding, obviously. I totally agree, she brings a lot to this forum and it is disappointing that she was banned. I must have missed Madmolly getting banned again, but the same goes for her. I often think the 2 of them are 1/2 nuts, but their posts are always honest and direct and even though I often don't agree, they always give me something to think about. This is a better board with them here.

MSTAR says things straight, she keeps both her feet on the ground she is practical and she is not afraid to say something you might not like, with a great sense of humor.
I've never ever found her comments rude or inpolite, maybe harsh sometime, sarcastic, but com'onwe don't live in Wonderland.
I love people who speaks clearly, I need that, as many other people. Let her back, it'a a huge loss for TC.

I agree, please bring back these moms. I can't believe that all of Lea's posts were pulled. She has provided valuable insight and lots and lots of information to moms in need. That should not be pulled from the board.
I understand the need to be sensitive to new members and I have been surprised at how the tone of the forum has changed since I joined almost 9 years ago.
But, this last newbie was incredibly rude and disrepectful to those of us with surviving triplets. I've always appreciated how sensitive the members here are to those of us that do not have our triplets intact. I've always felt like a member here even though I just have two, not three.
I would hope that the moderators would educated someone as rude as Roe was. We have had fakers (too many to list) that have hurt members here. Even though some stir the pot and even though some posts should get pulled because of the direction they take - has it really been enough to ban long time members?
Please reconsider.
Marie
Edited to add: generally speaking the intent of those here is to put our children's needs first. In many cases the discussions become heated because the decision of a parent doesn't always seem to be in the best interest of the children. When people suggested it might not be a good idea to go to 37weeks it was because we know how quickly things can change and how quickly that change can lead to tragedy.
I have no idea why Helene & Lea were banned...

I do not know MStar very well, as I am pretty new here myself, but the bit I have talked to her and asked for advice and she has answered, I do appreciate her input. She is one of the ONLY blogs that I actually follow because I can not get enough of her advice and stories! She is very well grounded and seems to be just an all around good person.
This is a forum, which means that people with all inputs and perspectives should be allowed to post. When you put a bunch of people together, particularly women, there are going to be all kinds of opinions and people will NOT agree with everything that everyone said and *gasp* drama. That is what makes this place great. You say something stupid and insult almost every triplet mom on here (like roe did) then by all means, ALL opinions should be able to come out. It is not any different than a post asking for advice and all opinions coming out. Bring her back and let her have a different opinion than you, we all appreciate different views, that is why we are here.

Is there any chance the mods would consider giving the banned people a probationary return? I don't know if the mods here use suspensions or not, but a month long suspension might work better than outright banning since is is easy to make up another user name and return to the board.

The more I thought about this all night the more I have become convinced there are new moderators have have been given banning powers. I just can't believe anyone who created an organization to help ALL triplet moms could behave this petty and childish as to ban people from a message board to help other triplet moms. Madmolly (lea) has not done anything and to ERASE all her past posts is appalling to me. She has provided information on children with special needs that could help mothers now and in the future as well as so many other topics. MSTAR (Michelle) was a little rough on the newbie but the situation wasn't of her own making. It was a build up. Many of us have snapped, myself included and I don't think it warrants banning. If it does I should have been banned several years ago. But I became a productive member of the community after I snapped on another person here didn't I? I just couldn't take the insanity anymore. And many of you here don't even know what I am talking about do you?
At this point I think the insanity is on the side of the moderators and I am snapping again. i just can't stand by and see the forum fall apart and become run by some vindictive person who is going to ban all the people who has dared ever disagree with her. And that is how it appears. So after 10 years here I risk banning (and I fully expect it here) to say I will not be renewing my financial membership of the triplet connection and encourage other to do the same until the current moderation is removed and the banned members are returned.

I do agree.. Completely.
I want real answers. I don't want just the positive side of things. We can't even provide that here anymore. It all has to be sunshine and roses.
It is clear that this forum is going downhill with the new moderators. I used to recommend many new Triplet moms here. I can't say that I will anymore. I would rather them also know the real answers rather than the "positive" ones.
Thankfully, most of us have found each other on FB where we can freely say what we feel without fear of being "Banned". Mabye it is time that we create a group over there. Then if someone decides that others are offensive, they can choose to remove themselves.

Where are the responses from TC? Obviously, we are all upset that they have done this....where is their side of the story?
I hope this thread ends up on the other site as I am sure it will be erased soon enough.
Both these women and Helene have given invaluable information throughout the years and both of which I consider our " forum experts". Michelle on her knowledge of red dye and eating healthier; Lea on immunizations and autism. I am disgusted that Lea's posts have been erased. What a loss for ALL OF US.
I think we deserve an explanation and for all these women to be put back online. How childish to ban them.

I read this board all the way from Singapore (UK expat) - there are not a lot of triplet here in Singapore, so I have learnt a lot on this board. I get some great ideas and some great perspectives. I really do appreciate this resource.
MSTAR is one of the posters I really admire. I also read her blog. She is hardly a troublemaker. What she does is say what she thinks - I wish I was a little more forthright like her. And the whole mess this time was caused by her saying something really worth saying. My triplets are almost 4 and I have cried so many times through the years reading of babies who are just born to early to make it. Or have difficulties related to prematurity. I think anyone reading would have told Roe to slow down. (I am hours behind here so it has almost always all been said before I even read it - or I would have said slow down - it might be fine but it's not worth the risk). How it deteriated from there - well it just got awful, that throwaway 'I don't care' comment. Personally I don't think Michelle should be the one banned. And I think this board will lose more than she will if she decides to stay away.

It does add a whole new dimension doesn't it. It goes from a member who was maybe a little harsh being "punished" (which being permanently banned I feel far to extreme) to Triplet Connection as an organization looking petty and vindictive by banning and erasing these other members posts for major infraction. Is it guilt by association because they are friends? Because she laughed at a post someone else posted that was pulled? What warrants banning from Triplet Connection and erasure of all your posts? Those posts had great searchable information that could help other mothers that have a child/ren with autism. And there are others that have been banned. How many? They can't vary well stand up and say I have been banned! Unless they are on face book. I hope they are at least reading and are coming to facebook.

I usually stay out of all of this kind of stuff, but I agree that the posts being erased is kind of ridiculous. Most of the time, I usually search for a topic I have a question on and comb through the advice/info these moms have been through and are knowledgeable about. I also find their advice refreshing and funny, most of the time, ha! But this banning people and erasing posts is getting a little petty and absurd.

You can tell the boards have changed in the sense that I remember when I first joined 2 yrs ago threads flew on here. Always questions and advice being thrown left and right.
Has anyone noticed that we've been on the same page for the past 2 maybe 3 days?
It's a shame those girls are gone. HUGE mistake.
One thing I'll always remember from these boards is Lea's amazing advice toward vacs.
Good thing I don't need this place to stay in touch, I'll keep track of them crazy chicks on FB.

I really do wish that Madmolly's posts had not been deleted also. Even though we are on different sides of the fence regarding vaccinations, she has provided valuable info for parents that are undecided and want to be informed to make the best decision for their children.

I think its ironic that this banning just seems to highlight the problems with TC. If Michelle and Lea and even Kristina were not banned, the things they wrote would have been longed buried by now instead of being re-hashed again and again.

MStar may be the most controversial (and yes sometimes annoying.... but who isn't?!?) person to post on TC, but I'm totally opposed to banning someone for that. She also has a LOT of common sense and helps a LOT of people.
Everyone deserves a chance to speak their mind. If a post is inappropriate, then mods can erase it. But eliminating a person altogether from the TC message boards is overkill, and hardly fair.

For a forum full of adults, parents no less, we all sure get treated like a bunch of children by the powers that be. I don't agree with everything posted on this board but I am a big girl and can can ignore it, or if I dare, I can put on my flame resistant panties and reply with my .02 either way I am capable of making that call for myself. I do not need the mods to pick and choose what I can and can not read or ban those THEY feel are too offensive to post here. Mother May I......

So that means that this forum for all triplet parents should really only be people who conform to what you believe is right? This is the problem to begin with.

There is no room for the sarcasm and rudness in way they attack some people around here. Not just the newbies who I admit where out of line, but the attack on long standing members who are also a wealth of information.
They have done this for too long and have a pattern of doing this kind of stuff.
I don't agree with there post being pulled that were helpful and insight full. But there has to be some consequences for the actions of these women.

Amy, arent you "friends" with Michele on facebook or is there another Amy Ferris ? And then you come here trashing her? Maybe I am just out of the loop (which is very possible) and this is just a joke, but seriously... if mstar is such a horrible person that attacks people, why are you "friends" on facebook?

Just for the record, deleting every post someone made for the last 5 years is just plain wrong. Whichever moderator did that should be ashamed of themselves. Whether you agree or disagree with Lea's opinions, she has really made people think around here. I have no idea why she was just banned and don't think that was right either. Deleting all that useful information from the archives is completely defeating the purpose of this forum. All the newbies have just been deprived of information for absolutely no reason.

First of all I want to say that I don't post a lot, but this forum has been awesome for me. I believe that is a place for adults/parents to get together and "discuss". Yeah we might not agree on everything and just because this is the "triplet connection" some of us don't have any other means of communication. This is where we come to get our vents, frustrations, laughs, and connections from. I think MSTAR is great! She is blunt and staight forward, and although we don't all agree with her we can "hash" it out.
Bring MStar and everyone else every banned back, and let us enjoy our conversations

Michele, Lea and Helene (any others?) should be brought back.
They are the ones who get in the trenches and are fighting for the preemie mums when offensive posters come by. So when the time zones shift and I get up and check out the threads, I can shrug and realise there is nothing more to add, because they've said it far better than I ever could.
They are the ones who offered to take time from their own vacations to sit with Feisty's older son, and to give Feisty contacts at hospitals/nursing coordinators.
These women support other TC women. I don't know them from FB, or MOM groups, I only know them from their posts here. From the day they all joined they have been unique individuals, as we all are, as is society. Being triplet parents doesn't mean we are cookie cutter parents.
They wear their opinions and hearts on their sleeves. They are wise, they are caring, and this board has benefited from them being the women they all are.

I'm new, but you all have me wondering about MSTAR's blog. Could someone post a link to it? Thank you!

I haven't been on in about a month and it seems I completely missed what happened.
I know I could still be considered a newbie because I don't post often, I don't recognize too many user names on here, except for MSTAR and a few others...I'm shocked.
I belong to a few forums and believe me this one is fairly tame...so I can't even imagine what went down to have any mod do this.
Ban or give a 'time out'...but to pull all their posts?? NOT COOL Even when I am not an active poster (compared to most)...I rely on this forum as like a database for any questions I have...and to pull all posts of a regular poster like that makes most topics or threads just garble!!
Sucky move!! grrr
