    Though this is commonly thought of as the gout forum, I like to think of it as an automatic gout control system.

    The benefits are:

    • Discussing your gout helps you realize what’s most important
    • Discussing other people’s gout helps you understand your own
    • Keeping your profile updated lets you monitor your progress
    • Daily posting becomes a habit that makes your gout control automatic

    Unfortunately, nobody currently has the gout forum posting habit, and those that had it have now moved away.

    I think it’s a great habit to have. I’m sure it isn’t for everyone, but I’m surprised more people don’t try it.

    Please can you help me by sharing your thoughts about why people don’t see regular forum posting as helpful for gout? You can also tell me in Google+ or Facebook:

    Hi Keith,

    I’ve found posting and reading other posts invaluable in my quest to control my gout.

    I wonder if once people get their UA levels and gout under control and don’t experience any more flare ups it’s no longer foremost in their minds so they get on with their lives and forget or don’t feel the need to post anymore.

    On a side note, with this new site format I cannot seem to log on with my email any more and change my profile. It seems the only way to log on is with social media which I am not a big user of.

    Cheers,
    Ron

    Ron, there should be a black menubar across the top of your screen that says Log in at the extreme left. If not, use https://gout-pal.com/wp-login.php

    After logging in, the menubar changes, and you get several useful options on the extreme right. One of these is Log Out, or you can use https://gout-pal.com/wp-login.php?action=logout

    I’m sure you’re right about people not needing to contribute once there uric acid is under control. However, I feel I might be doing something that is discouraging people, without realizing. If that’s the case, I’d welcome any ideas anyone might suggest for encouraging more posts here. Perhaps I’m just being impatient?
