Title: Snake Oil on ACHEnet (migr related but a good read
Post by chronic_chic on Feb 2nd, 2004, 7:26pm
Hiya everyone,

I frequently post on achenet's headache message board.  The other evening, this complete dolt put up a very "snake oil" like message claiming he can cure migraines with a migraine prayer.  Our small population of posters over there is having a hard time flaming this guy to the point where he will LEAVE US ALONE!  I know this is migraine related, but a scam is a scam.  Anyone trying to pull one over on someone in pain should be hung out to dry, in my opinion!  If anyone is a member of achenet or would like to sign up and help me shut this guy up, it would be greatly appreciated!  Here is the link to his thread:

Hell maybe he can do it....  Give it a try....  If it doesn't work, we'll kill him in a fit of zealous rage!!

If we all went over there the dude would get flamed so bad he would spontaneously combust or wish that he had. LMAO

That guy sounds like a complete nut job.  It would probably be better to ignore him than to encourage him with any sort of response.

10-4. Either he self-destructs, or the local cretins play the Lemming game and follow him over the cliff. Darwin's been around for a long time.

Wonder who he really is, that he has this red phone line with God...

But if he is this good, what prevents him from praying for all of us, by our screen names, and curing us without our even knowing about it?

Waitabit, he wants money...
Now isn't that a truly Christian thing - have a cure that you get free from God (not that you at least work for, like a doctor)  and charge people money for it???

Thanks for your responses on this issue!  I've reported the post to the achenet moderator, and I was told by another member that they had to do this once before, and the post was removed.  Not that I'm for internet censorship, but when something is potentially harmful to others that I care about...I feel something should be done about it!  Now achenet can deal with it however they want!
