Idea for handling green pea threads..........."rookie mods"
How about this...all new mods go through a probation period before they become full mods.....all they handle is the rookie posts(you know the ones)....then they make full mod after a certain time period or post count. Sounds like a pain in the arse, but maybe it can be a right of passage?
I think this could work...

yes the thread was one asking for Doc M or others to give medical advice

And in it Doc M asserted that prostate cancer could happen at any age although the person in question had seen a physician who advised him he had prostatitis. In fact 70% of prostate cancers occur in men over 65..not in young men . He further stated that testicular cancer could occur at any age although it does rarely outside the 15-40 age range. He used these fallacious arguments to respond to assertions by me that the young man in questions doctor had erroneously told him that his condition was caused by high androgen levels. Doc M never addressed this fallacy but it is in fact an error and research of the literature finds no reference to androgen levels at all but bacterial infection is the primary cause, which the physician was treating him for with an antibiotic. The course of the thread was that "doctors are always right and we should always do what they say".
The title of that thread is "Doc M, or other medically qualified persons, I need your help".
its just a descriptive word

It describes how I felt about the information shared and I am sorry if I was repetitive.
