We have all your old favourite guest speakers plus a few new up and coming stars.
Phoenix has some great new ideas on basing your diet on 60% + carbs and will debut the latest Gluggo insulin pump, the first pump to hold one thousand units of insulin. Phoenix will be telling us why Hope Warshaw is her number one Guru. Check out her Carbsane impersonation, it’s truly side splitting. Phoenix will also show you how to wipe the smile off the face of a lowcarber, just when they have achieved non diabetic BG numbers on nil meds. Check out her technique for finding out of date discredited rat studies, and her method of posting live links to misinformation is a master class.
World renowned portion control expert Professor Sid Bonkers has some great money saving tips, and will demonstrate, how to eat well for a month on one grain of rice, three cornflakes and a splash of low fat milk. Old timers know the Prof is the worlds leading expert in forum thread sabotage, don’t miss Sid’s lecture, book early it’s always a sell out. Sid, last years winner in the donut eating contest, is fresh out of rehab, and is odds on favorite to take the title this year, although rank outsider, A M Breadvan has been tipped as a possible winner.
Old favourite Nobhead will be back, and those that have not seen his act are in for a big treat. Nob, some of you may know is famous for his catch-phrase ‘I agree with Sid’ and is without doubt the best straight mans stooge in the world. Long accepted, as the worlds leading expert in talking, but saying nothing, his toadying up to the mods is legendary, don’t miss Nob’s talk.
Back by popular demand is the Cherub. Holding HbA1c for over three years of 4.9, and only increasing to 5.1, when we commented on this blog re. her uniquely stable control, her low GI lecture is a must. Holding non diabetic numbers for over five years, on nil meds, and the worlds most secret daily food plans, will this be the year this miraculous information is released. We wait with baited breath.
For all you budding forum mods, we have ‘Anna the banner’ to give you all the tips you need. Long regarded as the worlds thread lock Queen, and holder of the Cugila lifetime achievement award for Stalinist forum moderation, she is not to be missed. Anna will teach you how to spot a lowcarber from a mile away, and why they must be banned, thread locked and post edited at the earliest opportunity.
Backing up Anna will be the Robin. The Robin has some fantastic ideas for taking the piss, and will show you how to get your forum members wound up and leaving in droves. Together they make a fantastic double act.
Daisy, long time forum mod and ex Kenny boy shill, is the three word game master, and is the cut and paste (dross to the newly diagnosed) supremo, she will teach you how to post year in and year out, with not one original idea in your head.
Carboholics get your ticket early and avoid disappointment.
Well folks that’s this years line up. We have assembled some of the most vehement anti lowcarbers and craziest forum mods in the world.
Don’t be a Muggo shoot up with Gluggo. You know it makes sense, why fight it !

Well, that's my afternoon cup of tea gone for a 'Burton' right over my computer.
Funniest thing I've read in a while.
All joking apart I agree with Eddie's often-expressed opinion that DCUK being the largest diabetic forum seems only to be concerned with numbers.
This means that members and posters are dispensable. If they didn't know that before it has been confirmed recently. Once again people are being denied a voice and even long term posters dedicated to helping others are becoming tired of it all.
Naturally there is a tendency to blame the "Front Office" people who after all are the ones we see most but is this entirely fair?
As it is such a large forum should it not have a larger more visible and representative team of moderators.?
On paper it may well have. I haven’t checked because, as will be the case for most of us, I am only aware of 2 moderators with a third who is almost a sleeper.
In these circumstances it is hardly surprising that people sometimes get out of their depth and resort to tactics which are sometimes used elsewhere in similar circumstances. In fact it is necessary to have a certain amount of experience to realise how little you know.
I was delighted to see yesterday the thread where 1s ad 2s were co-operating to provide information for a member to take back to DUK. Low carb Diet reviews ? I think, that’s the way to go.
Whether we like it or not DUK do have the power and whether we are disgruntled with DCUK or not they are the biggest forum, so please give these frontline people some backup DCUK. Its hardly surprising they make mistakes and misjudgements given such a great responsibility. Its not good enough.
Congratulations to all those who contributed to yesterday's excellent thread. Great to see T1s and T2s cooperating as they should.

This would be hilarious but in actuality it is very sad. Moderators do an un paid job but it must be fairly done and this is where it becomes badly unstuck at the seams. Not many have a calm and fair view point. I also wonder how many of the moderators can control their diabetes.
It is a great shame yesterdays thread did show people/members could work together but voices must be heard and not stifled, thread locked and some members banned as in recent weeks.
Will it improve though?
