| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

| |  Private Area Access
This has been split from Respect of Differences as off-topic.
About that... I hope I'm not coming accross as rude or out of line, but why am I still not allowed in the PTSD Only room? I was told I was denied access for legal reasons. What is so special about that place that I still haven't been granted access?

Upstream, nobody is getting access to any private areas at present, carer or PTSD. It will not change until some things are sorted out, none of which will be discussed publicly or privately for legal reasons. |

I have to be honest, Anthony, the words "will not be discussed publicly or privately for legal reasons" really scares me, when we are talking about an entire section of this forum, a forum on which I post.
I'm sure it's my paranoia, but I really have no idea how to interpret that, except that it makes me feel like people are being preyed upon. |

All I am going to say is that those who have access are safe and fine, those who do not will not be getting access until some matters are sorted out first.
I may even close the areas down and find a more thorough method in which to determine a persons actual identity for security purposes off allowing them access to private and personal content.
I cannot discuss this topic further at this time. |

Anthony:
I know you are the 'techie guru' - is there anyway you can use IP addresses as a filter? You don't have to answer, it just popped into my head and didn't know if it was possible. |

IP's are useless as you can use a proxy to surf anonymously and cloak your location. I will be researching security methods over the coming months though. |
