was it a hipaa violation?
Not really. It is an active police investigation, and we were asked to remove the thread.Quote:

So the public thread about the incident is taken down, but the thread in the private section with the specific details has been removed? Not sure I understand how that works.
I don't remember seeing any incident details in the discussion. In fact I thought the whole thread was about the lack of details.
Other than the name that was announced by ted when he announced the memorial, there werent any details in this thread. The private thread with the details is still up. Thats why I?m confused. Seems backwards.Quote:

Yea. Complete malarkey. At least leave Ken's post up inventing new hipaa rules and 'reserving the right' to post details when he feels like itQuote:

Both threads are still up. One has been moved to the incidend section.Quote:

You guys should be happy that there is a forum for cave divers. On every other place 70% of the posts begin (or should begin) with 'I've never been in a cave, but ...'
You kids are kinky!Quote:

'dive more, post less' has a lot less to do with it than FB and social media culture.
You're talking traffic in general though. That's not what I was getting at.Quote:

All dive forums that I'm aware of, including the European once, are much quieter than they used to be.
I'm here for the entertainment... ok thats a lie.. I'm here for the knowledge transfer (and the entertainment) I've noticed a down trend in posts... but just figured that it was the same as any forum. It is amazing that CDF and ScubaBoard are as active as they are with everyone moving to Facebook (or off it as of late). With the recent accident and the posts that followed it I found value even as an open circuit diver.Quote:

But than again, that not what I was getting at.
I complain about pete all the time my dude I just don't post that often.Quote:

I've done recoveries on both sides of this philosophy. seen it both ways
People that have dive more post less stickers, don't participate in forums because of it, but they then participate in the facebook groups/threads which is hypocritical. Those facbeook groups that are doing similar function to the forums but are not searchable. If people think the same stuff over and over again on here is bad, it's always going to be infinitely worse on facebook because you can't search for historic topics so they start a new one.Quote:

Is there interest in getting back to information sharing? Because there is a ton of things that could be shared that I bet many people would like to know.
