I agree. I believe they think if they can intimidate the admins here, that the whole Fascination thread will be deleted.

They want this closed down because it reaches too many people with the truth and it keeps people informed as more horror is revealed....and they don't want to have any more exposure of their scams and frauds.

Must be getting pretty close to a nerve if they are trying to intimidate folks here.

I would love to see the duck theme continue even after all of this.. I am new to posting here. (but not new to low carb forums).. and I have been posting in a few health related threads. Every time I see another duck posting, I get this warm feeling inside.

It may not stick us together like duct(duck) tape would, but there is definitely a lot of duck bonding going on. And I feel it spilling out everywhere else.. I feel like I am a part of this community, even outside the fascination thread.

I am bad with names. But I know you all from your ducks. ~_*

Are people really still paying the $60 to sign up for the kimmer plan? Some of the posts on the ducky blog make me think that might be the case.

Do you really think that a KK person seeking the truth would wade through all this to find the information? I seriously doubt it the way this thread is going. I think the thread needs to get back to topic and the people who just want to chat and bond should take that bonding to a different place.

Someone suggested that I just read blogs if all I want is information or facts. I'm sorry, but that is what I come here for. But, I guess if this thread is just going to be filled with chatter not related to Kimmer, I will have to go to the blogs. What a shame for those people coming here from Kimkins who are truly seeking the truth but only finding idle conversation.
Just a different take on this....

It's possible that some of us also see this as an opportunity to let Kimmer know that life is not all about her. By also allowing people to connect here in ways that have nothing to do with her, by allowing the fun and caring, I would almost guess infuriates her. And I'm all for that!

Megpie, I've been trying to formulate a way to say that and just couldn't put it into the right words...so I'll just say DITTO!

Not to derail the thread, but I have to add my support of the admins of this site. I've been here a few years and can't say that I've found an equal set of admins among any other board. Thanks for all your hard work

And now to hastily link my post back the topic at hand, what's the official count since the last Hideykins post/contact?

Since what Peony said was in reply to my post, I apologize for feeling the need to bring it all up again, further knocking the thread off topic, but Peony, you forced me into it.

That means they can't even read anything posted there, much less participate in any discussions there.

We've had numerous new members come in here - some fresh out of KK territory, just finding out what KK is really all about, and what they've been doing to themselves. Where do they post first when they arrive at LCF? THIS THREAD!

Then there are those who arrive in this thread first, defending Kimmer and her scam, but slowly, as they see the evidence that has been painstakingly gathered on these threads, and converse with us, they eventually see some bit of evidence that convinces them we're not the enemy, and are indeed only trying to prevent them from hurting themselves by continuing to follow KK.

There are also those who find this thread only because they're googling for information about KK before starting the "diet".

Moving this thread to the playground simply because not every post is filled with rivetting new information about Hidey/Kimmer/Kimkins would not be doing those just arriving from KK any favors at all - that would effectively be hiding the thread away from them, preventing them from getting the information they need. Not being able to access these threads would be doing them a grave disservice!

Please keep the fascination threads where they are - for the sake of those just arriving from KK, as well as those looking for information about what they hear is a "miracle diet".

Peony
I want to make it perfectly clear that I in no way want to eliminate all the friendly banter, healing silliness, or even what amounts to repetitive answers on here, when a dozen or more people respond with the same answer to any given post. That was not my point at all.

The chat and chatter is what helps the KK'ers see what we're really made of on here. They get to see that we're caring. They get to see that we're real people, not a bunch of "haterz" making up a bunch of lies because we're "jealous". They get a chance to experience how our lives and the lives of those we know are so tied up in this whole matter... and get to hear about the health problems that have occurred because of this scam, and the personal reasons each of us has for wishing to see the Kimpire fall, for good.

If you don't like wading through all that to get to just the facts, and don't want to just read the blogs to catch up, then there is at least one other LC forum where the posts don't add up so quickly, and you could catch up on the bare minimum facts, with a minimum of off topic chatter. (I hope it's ok to mention that there are other LC forums - Only trying to give Peony another alternative to wading through page after page of posts she doesn't have time to/want to bother with).

But be forewarned, even they can get off topic from time to time - it's just part and parcel of conversation, whether it's face to face in real live, or an online virtual conversation. I post on another forum (not related to LC in any way) where it's a given that topic drift will probably occur within the first few posts. It's expected - and under certain circumstances, applauded! This is the first forum I've ever been on where topic drift is so seriously frowned upon...

From Kimkins Exposed:

"And then it’s Kimmer’s turn (admin and Heidi Diaz) to reply too, dragging a former admin into it:

KimATC recommends calcium & magnesium supplements for leg cramps. You can read more in the Work Out Zone forum.

Of course the only person who can advise you medically is your doctor — and many people still think you “need” carbs — so why not fax your doctor a copy of the Kimkins diet and ask what he thinks? Many Kimkins members have gotten the “thumbs up” from their docs and are on their way to staving off (or controlling) diabetes."

------------------------------------------

The only doctor who would approve Kimkins is one who can't read English! She has GOT to be kidding.

This made me angry. I just posted comments on Kimkins Exposed - waiting for moderation.

Kimmer took KimATC's recommenation out of context - I have no doubt!!! Kim only gives this type of advice to people working out and athletes. That is her area of expertise.

I highly doubt KimATC would give this advice when someone is not receiving the proper nutrients from their diet.

Have you seen this? A comment from Martin on Ducky's blog..
Quote:
With all the news that is coming out about nasty emails, comments, and message board PMs, I thought I’d point out this one I got on September 4, the day before the PI pics were released. I think Ducky got something similar on the same day, didn’t you Ducky? The original comment can be seen at: slamboard » Blog Archive » Kimkins.com Part I - The Kimkins.com Business Partnership Case Study
=================================================
The comment says:
“your name is going to be released very soon.
you are doing alot of damage to people who are seeing suucess with this diet plan.
You cannot cry over spilled milk forever without sitting in something sour yourself. When people asked you to reveal your identity you wouldnt.
If anyone chooses to read epuppetry.com and all of its various shared links to its domain they will find very quickly that you have been mounting an attack for vengence to get what you believe is due you. A great deal of the anti-kimkins websites all come back to you, so when you claim to the thousands of people that there are numourous websites of members who have been lied to, you should really be saying you have planted numerous websites to make it appear that way.
Such a very sad person that this is what you have allowed your life to revolve around. You really have no idea what you are doing because you are doing all of this only for yourself without regard to the affect it is having on morbidly obese woman and men who have been regaining their lives from this plan.

You may be very good at linking lots of links to create the appearance of authority on technorati, you may even be very good at creating more and more blogs to help assist with your alibi, but you are not very good at covering your tracks or your identity. ”
================================================
Apparently the person who left the comment thought I have something to do with epuppetry.com. I don’t.
