IUHS Forum users:

Please note that there have been an excessive number of recents reports submitted for various posts throughout the IUHS forum for being in violation of the TOS. I'm not sure why the IUHS Forum Moderators have been so lenient, or why users have only recently decided to submit reports (some on relatively old posts), but I want to make it clear that this type of behavior will NOT be tolerated on this site as per the agreement which you accepted upon registration.

Therefore, please go over some of your own posts and edit any questionable content (i.e. personal names/insults, foul language, flooding, racial/religous slurs, spam, etc.) which may be in violation of the TOS. If not, we will have no choice but to edit them for you and issue official warnings. So please do so on your own so that we can avoid this process.

Thanks for your cooperation.

It should be noted that blue cards are there for legitimate grievences. To use them as a way of harrassing other users is not acceptable any more than insulting them or egging them on is. Inability to maintain a detacted professionalism on an internet bullitin board doesnt exactl denote the strongest of character or the best sort of person to be a physician.

All the false garbage posts

Dear Steph,
I am glad that you are actaully attempting to give little to no credence to these morons that continue to take up space with all of their propaganda and lies. Is there anyway that someone could remove those who are not even in med school, like AZSKEPTIC, and several others.
For someone to even be able to post to this site, they should at least be a med sdudent or grad because then what I have been writing all along is that their messages are nothing more than bullplop. Please help those of us who are trying to give positive info; IUHS has changed a lot over the years, as have many foreign med schools; I just cannot see what good it does to have to constantly allow these posts to get through? I would be more than happty to help when I can, but I am studying for step II right know and cannot devote too much time to the posts, but I will do what I can.
Thanks,
Doc Pike, AKA Mark Kurzeja, IUHS Y-4

Have you ever been to Baseterre?

Have you ever been to the corner of Wilkinn & Wigin ?

Did you do your step one in the online program? or did you go to the campus?

How do you know who are grads and who are not?

You know what I dont have to defend my Med School cause no one can say anything about it that is bad - it is accepted in all 50 states?


People bash IUHS because it has a BAD reputation- and they have a perfect right to.

I assume you will PM those in violation of TOS before issuing warnings? (Not that I expect to get any, anyways).
Thanks

p.s.-- funny how this thread isn't even about IUHS per say, but it's already part of the flame war.

p.p.s -- even funnier is how one poster seems to think that steph has taken sides. i bet not.

Re: All the false garbage posts

I dont know where anyone has gotten the notion that I am singling out any particular user. The point is merely as was stated...months ago if you notice the date...that use of the blue card to harrass others will not be indulged.

As for who's "allowed" to post: any person who stays within Terms of Service and is posting relevant material in good faith to the forum s/he choses is welcome.

have some CANDY

Look! Candy on a stick.

I hear that one really is born every minute!
A machine that can do this was called the "Born Sucker Machine" (no, I'm not making this up) http://inventors.about.com/library/i...llollipops.htm
My cousin's aunt's brother's best friend said IUHS is going to buy one of those machines so they can stay in business permanently.
