If you think the RRDi is heading in the correct direction but needs some improvement, why not step up the plate and volunteer. Would you like to volunteer to sit on the board of directors and make decisions to improve the RRDi? The first step it to subscribe, then post your suggestions on our website, qualify to sit on the board of directors and if the board thinks you would be an improvement to our non profit organization, you may actually volunteer on the board of directors and improve the RRDi to go in the direction you think would be better.

We welcome articles on any aspect of rosacea for the second edition of the RRDi Journal. Health professionals and researchers are invited to submit research articles, clinical trial reports, case studies, review papers and opinion pieces, which will be subject to peer review. We also welcome personal statements from rosacea patients, news bulletins, and other relevant short pieces for inclusion in the journal. Please direct all submissions (requires subscription) to: Citations should be numbered in superscript in the text, and references listed numerically. Figures should be greyscale in 300 dpi tiff format. For colour figures, please inquire. Deadline for the next edition indefinite.

The RRDi has been using Invision Community [IC] forum platform for over fifteen years. When we started in 2004 it was recommended by Warren Stuart who was the assistant director of the RRDi, along with Steve Andreessen who also served on the board of directors and was instrumental in using what was then called Invision Power Services (later the name was changed to Invision Community [IC]) after going through different website stages. The result was the entire board of directors at that time came to the consensus to use IC for our website. It is a powerful platform with many add-on features and a significant number of developers adding plugins and additional features to the platform. Invision Community Clients Some very large corporations use the Invision Community platform. Do you recognize any of these companies below? Are the above companies successful using the Invision Community platform? Medical Clients Who Use Invision Community Platform While all the above companies have their social media accounts as well, all these companies prefer to continue using the Invision Community Platform, and so does the RRDi prefer using the Invision Community platform because of its excellent features. We have invested a significant percentage of our donations into using this platform. So if you find this platform not to your liking and prefer the social media style platform we recommend you VOLUNTEER to help us improve our website. To switch to another platform is a significant change that would be cost prohibitive unless some donor gives us a million dollars and then we could do just that. If that is something you could volunteer to help accomplish you either have to convince the board of directors or volunteer to be a board member and help convince your fellow board members your recommendation. Android & iOS Mobile Apps However, with the advent of mobile devices and social media platforms the trend has focused on mobile apps using iOS and Android devices found in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The popularity of using these apps over using a browser to view a website has increased the use of social media platforms such as Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. The developers and owners of the Invision Community platform have announced beta versions of the Android app (iOS beta app has expired) for their platform which has been embedded for years using only a web browser, so we have announced with this post here asking for volunteers to download the beta versions and help test these new apps. Please consider volunteering and using these beta versions of the apps. Reply to this Topic There is a reply to this topic button somewhere on the device you are reading this post.

Volunteer Beta Developers Needed! (Android & iOS) Wish List If you are a code developer and want to volunteer for our non profit organization for rosacea to develop a mobile app for either Android or iOS please contact us. Note: We have applied our community forum with Invision Community to list us under EDUCATION and we were approved on the list. There WAS a mobile app available in beta version for Android (for Apple devices using iOS you need to scroll further down). It was on the Google Play store. It is the Invision COMMUNITIES app (not the Invision Community app which is for admins ONLY). Yes this is confusing, since it was in development for both the iOS and Android apps and are no longer in development. Here is a screen shot that was in the Google Play Store which is the second one called Invision COMMUNITIES: We listed our community, the RRDi, when the above 'Communities' apps was available in the Google Play Store and you may be able to find our listing in the category EDUCATION. Please let us know your experience with this app on your Android mobile device? Just find the reply to this topic button and let us know, please. If you are a code writer developer and would like to volunteer to make a mobile app for our RRDi Invision Community please join the RRDi and explain in your profile your volunteer spirit. Please note: The iOS beta test has expired. We are not aware when Invision Community will renew the iOS beta test again. We will announce this here whenever the beta test is available again. The Android version development has been put on hold by the Invision Community developer team. If this app ever is developed further we will announce it on this post. iOS (Apple) Version The iOS version is no longer in beta testing. When available again, You can volunteer and be a beta tester if you follow the two steps: Once you have downloaded the app, at the bottom click on DISCOVER, you will find these categories to choose from and then select EDUCATION and scroll till you find RRDi Member Forum: Reply to this Topic There is a reply to this topic button somewhere on the device you are reading this post.

More Women than Men Have Rosacea? In a significant number of medical papers on rosacea, the general consensus has been that more women have rosacea than men, particularly in certain variants of rosacea. Typical examples of medical authorities who report that more women than men have rosacea are shown below. We also have investigated and report what clinical papers mention which sex has what issue (rosacea variant or phenotype) more than the other. For more information (requires subscription)

Rhealba® Oat, the DERMAtological OAT, "is found at the heart of A-DERMA, an exceptional active ingredient that rebalances, soothes and repairs fragile skin." [1] There are clinical papers published in prestigious dermatological journals and have investigated Rhealba® Oat. [2] These clinical papers investigating this 'exceptional active ingredient' are sponsored by the Pierre Fabre group according to PubMed. [3] For example, the following paper in investigating this subject concluded, "Overall, the study product was very well tolerated and may be beneficial for subjects with rosacea as an adjunct to superficial dermatological procedures or oral/topical therapies, in line with the current recommendations for rosacea management." [4] These types of clinical papers are typical of skin industry supported rosacea research that is going on which rosacea non profit organizations like the National Rosacea Society, the American Acne and Rosacea Society, and the Acne and Rosacea Society of Canada support. [5] The RRDi is the lone watchdog (or the Snoopes) of skin industry sponsored clinical papers published in such prestigious dermatological journals that puts pressure on the medical community, particularly dermatologists, to treat rosacea. The skin industry does not support the RRDi because we do not sponsor any research since we receive no donations from the skin industry and we have barely enough donations to keep our website going till the end of December 2022. [6] One of the mission statements the RRDi has published for the public is the following: Goal # 4: To allow rosacea sufferers to guide where and how the money is spent on rosacea research and be the first non profit organization to allow rosaceans to be members of the corporation. Until June 7, 2004, the date of incorporation, there had been no other non profit organization that allowed input from rosacea sufferers. [7] If you suffer from rosacea, do you want some novel rosacea research that is independently sponsored by rosaceans or do you want to continue to support skin industry sponsored rosacea research that puts positive pressure on dermatologists who read these prestigious dermatological journals? By replying to this post you could show you want change to the current rosacea research being sponsored by the skin industry. Our goal is to reach 10,000 subscribers to the RRDi who donate $1/month, so we as the only 501 c 3 non profit patient advocacy group can fulfill the following mission statement: Goal # 5: To attain a level such that the RRDi can directly impact medical articles published on the subject, information disseminated to physicians and rosacea sufferers and apply positive pressure on the medical community. [7] Help us achieve our goals.

We used to allow guests to post feedback without registering an account in this forum but now require guests to subscribe to post. Scroll below about Active vs Inactive members. Voting Member The RRDi has now over 1000 charter members who have graciously joined providing contact information so that they can vote in our decision making of who serves on the board of directors every five years. If you want voting member status we require more than just an email address to vote. We understand that many of you do not want to provide such information so that is why we have setup the non voting member group discussed below. Non Voting Member Who Registered an Account We have in the past opened up our membership to anyone who provided an email address without giving us all the contact information. These non voting members who do not provide full contact information (only providing an email address) are not be able to vote for who serves on the board of directors, l had viewing and posting privileges in the forums with access to the member areas of our website. We hoped to increase our membership since many were reluctant to join if they have to provide contact information. This way, only those who really want to vote will graciously provide such information if they want to, or, opt to be a member and be totally anonymous, with only providing an email address. By only providing an email address we are also allowing those to use their Apple or Facebook accounts to register an account with our forum, as well as Microsoft, and Google accounts. If you have any issues with registering an account, please use our support form or contact form and describe the issue so we can improve our registration process to make it as easy and user friendly as possible. By using one of the following sign in accounts below (Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, Google) it should be easy peasy (if not let us know). We are still working with Twitter and Linked in about this but you can use Apple, Facebook, Microsoft or Google login credentials with the RRDi and it should be the easiest registration. Changing to a VOTING MEMBER If you join with just an email address you are a member, however you are NOT a VOTING MEMBER. If you are a non voting member and want to become a voting member read the paragraph above on Voting Member, that explains providing contact information allows you to vote. If you do indeed provide us with your contact information, i.e., first and last name, mailing address, phone, alternate email address in your PROFILE, and want to be considered a VOTING MEMBER then contact us and explain so we can change your account setting to a voting member. The easy way is simply to subscribe. Changing to an ACTIVE MEMBER If you logged into your account and are not able to have access to parts of our website, you have become an INACTIVE MEMBER. All that is required now is to SUBSCRIBE.

You may have some thoughts on the subjects of anonymity, transparency and posting on the internet. This post is our explanation of how we understand these three subjects and if you have any thoughts on this, you are welcome to hit the REPLY TO THIS TOPIC button and add your thoughts (requires subscription to post). If you receive an error message for any link on our website, it probably is because you are a guest and are not allowed to enter the member areas of our website. (requires subscription to view or post) RRDi The RRDi is transparent when it comes to how we spend our donations with our financial page. We have the Guidestar Seal of Platinum Transparancy. Privacy Policy Our privacy policy is second to none and we challenge anyone to find any loop holes or tell us how we can improve it. Private Member Forum We have implemented measures so that only members can view the member forum using the Invision Community platform which is the most secure and private rosacea forum on the internet. If you use Sign in with Apple, you can hide your email address totally, the ultimate in privacy registration. However, Windows, Linux, and Android users are welcome and can basically have the same anonymity by reading how to do this and taking extra steps recommended to have the same security and privacy in the most private and secure rosacea forum group on planet earth. Guests Guests used to able to create a cryptic display name and post in our Guest Forum on our website for free in areas open to guests without registering an email address until the end of June 2022. Effective since then guests are not allowed to post anymore without donating for a subscribtion and gain total access to our website. Guests can only view a small percentage of our free information on rosacea. Members who subscribe gain full access. Voting Members Voting members are required to give us first and last name, address, phone number and an alternate email address. If you are concerned about your privacy when joining the RRDi as a voting member, you can rest assured our privacy policy is solid and we would never disclose your contact information with anyone without your permission. Anonymity vs Transparency Where do you stand on this issue? If you haven't given this much thought you may want to read the article published on Mashable, Transparency vs. Anonymity: Where Do You Stand? [INFOGRAPHIC & POLL]. Of course, everyone wants both anonymity and transparency, however, as the Mashable article points out usually you favor one over the other, so there is a balance to consider. The RRDi tries to balance anonymity and transparency, so, depending on where you stand on this issue you have choices. Transparency One of the core principles of the RRDi is transparency, which can be seen reading our charter. The RRDi has received the Platinum seal rating from Guidestar on Transparency. Not all non profit organizations for rosacea have this seal. For example, our charter states, "Sources of funding to the institute will be publicized including the name of the donor unless the donor requests anonymity. Expenses of the institute will be publicized down to the last cent, showing where all the spending went and for what purpose." Rule Number Two states, "To be a legal corporate member a name, mailing address, two email addresses, and a statement of whether the member is a rosacean or not a rosacean is required." While the RRDi doesn't have the volunteer editorial staff to accomplish what Snopes offers, we are doing our best to imitate what Snopes does (Snopes' staff motive is they are paid which we wish we could pay our editorial staff as much money as Snopes offers their staff, but alas, we are all volunteers and simply don't have the funds to pay our staff). Over 1000 members agreed to these two rules when joining by registration which allows the individual as a legal non profit corporate voting member of the RRDi. Anonymity Many are under the impression when joining the RRDi as a voting member that giving out their contact information is an intrusion on their privacy (which is far from the truth since our privacy policy is solid). Also, it appears that many rosaceans have moved on to social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, etc., which seems to be less anonymous (frequently blog posters display their real name), and favors more transparency, so who can figure out why the yahoo groups and forum style posting (with cryptic [usually humorous] display names) are less used now in favor of transparent social media? Are you aware that when you join a private social media rosacea group and post, any other member of the group can now view your profile? How private is that? That depends on what your profile shows, now doesn't it? Members of the RRDi can only view what you ALLOW to be viewed in your public profile. Only the RRDi staff can view your email address. The public never sees your email address in your profile, unless you somehow allow this. Usually most rosaceans want anonymity (read below how you can hide your true identity when joining the RRDi in the subheading, CHANGE YOUR PROFILE, and learn how to Change Your Display Name to a cryptic display name), but at the same time want transparency with the non profit organization they join while totally remaining anonymous as a member. There is a fine balance between anonymity and transparency and the RRDi allows you to have both if you join as a member and has given this a great deal of thought. We hope you agree this is how a non profit organization with members should have choices regarding their anonymity as well as having transparency when it comes to the organization they join. Posting How You Can Remain Anonymous while Posting in the RRDi Member Forum? Follow these directions. As mentioned above about Sign in with Apple, you can remain totally anonymous and completely private using your Apple ID when registering and hide behind a cryptic display name and also hide your email address totally. Change Your Profile You can completely remain anonymous when you post in our member forum. You can change your display name to something cryptic or clever. Only the staff at the RRDi has your membership information. The RRDi will NEVER display or disclose to anyone your profile and contact information without your permission. Our Privacy Policy is solid. And if you join only with your email address, the staff has no idea who you are. Your email address is your only ID, so, how much more anonymous can you get? Change Your Display Name The steps to change your display name are the following: 1. Login to your member account by looking for Existing User? Sign in (Top Right Corner of your screen) (if you are having issues logging in please contact us, giving your first and last name, your email address used when registering your account as a voting member and we will assist you in being able to login to your member account. If you registered only with your email address just contact us with your email address and we will be happy to assist ) 2. Once logged in you will see your display name in the top right corner. Click on the toggle and select ACCOUNT SETTINGS. In the left column of the account settings page look for DISPLAY NAME. In the column to the right of display name type in the field box under CHANGE DISPLAY NAME (to the left of the field box it says NEW DISPLAY NAME) change to whatever new display name you want to remain anonymous. 3. Click the SAVE button. Voila! You are now anonymous. No one knows who you are. Hide Your Online Status You may also want to hide your online status. Sign in with Apple The ultimate privacy is using Sign in with Apple. Private Tapatalk Member Forum We have now sponsored a private Rosaceans Tapatalk member forum which you can join for those who prefer Tapatalk. For more information. Guests NOT Allowed to Post (requires subscription to post) We in the past have allowed guests to post here without registering. Effective at the end of June 2022 we have not allowed guests this privilege anymore and guests must subscribe to post which makes a guest a member. Reply to this Topic There is a reply to this topic button somewhere on the device you are reading this post. (requires subscription to post) Mahalo We also now have a mobile app for your device (currently this project has been paused). Why not join now since you have a better understanding of our privacy policy? If you still have questions or concerned, please read the last paragraph about REPLY TO THIS TOPIC.

Volunteer Benefits Volunteering has benefits not only in helping others but for the volunteer. Watch the three videos on this page! An Active Member is one who has posted within the last thirty days and has full access to the RRDi website. An Inactive Member is one who has not posted in the last thirty days and is therefore restricted to guest privileges of access to the site until such time as the member becomes active again with either a subscription or as an active volunteer. Only subscribers or active members may post. Any SUBSCRIBED member or active volunteer may post within thirty days. Volunteer Active Members may waive the subscription fee. If you want to have your membership as a volunteer active member and have the subscription fee waived use the fill out this form. Volunteering Reduction From 1998 through 2005 there was an incredible volunteer spirit that drove the formation of the RRDi. Since 2005 the force that motivated so many to bring together rosacea sufferers into a grassroots non profit organization has dwindled to just a flickering wick. Why is it that rosaceans (rosacea sufferers) don't volunteer anymore? Rosaceans have moved on to rosacea social media platforms. Andy Seth, an entrepreneur, has a blog post, The Way We Think About Volunteering Is Dead Wrong, states, "research shows that the happiest volunteers are those who give 2 hours per week. That’s it. 2 hours." Two Hours a Week If the RRDi could get any rosacean to volunteer 2 hours a weeks, that would be greatly appreciated. Most rosaceans want free information and visit our website but do not post. If you post on our website at least one post a month we waive the subscription fee. If you want to show your support to the RRDi and do not want to post, you can simply subscribe and boost our membership. Are there volunteers who actually volunteer two hours a week? There must be, otherwise the study is bogus. If we could get any RRDi member to just post their thought or experience with rosacea for 15 minutes a week that would be incredible. Volunteer to Post for 15 minutes We have dotted the RRDi forum with requests to RRDi members to simply post anything and over 1600 plus members as of this date are simply miniscule when it comes to posting. Getting our members to post is a challenge. If you have some insight how to get our members to post, we are all ears. You can reply to this post and comment to your heart's content. Of course, that is the issue, the RRDi members' hearts are not content to post. Why is that? Feedback suggests that the Invision Community platform which we have been using since 2004 is not easy to use and rosaceans prefer social media platforms. Our answer to this is simple, watch this short video asking for volunteers to post on the RRDi social media accounts. Win a Free Jar of the ZZ cream Demodex Solutions, one of our sponsors, has graciously allowed us to award a 120 month subscriber a free jar fo the ZZ cream while supplies last. You want a free jar? Follow these instructions. Live Long and Prosper The research Mr. Seth referred to may have been the study commented on by the American Psychological Association that reports, "Volunteers lived longer than people who didn't volunteer if they reported altruistic values or a desire for social connections as the main reasons for wanting to volunteer, according to the study." This same study, Andrea Fuhrel-Forbis, the co-author concludes: "It is reasonable for people to volunteer in part because of benefits to the self; however, our research implies that should these benefits to the self become the main motive for volunteering, they may not see those benefits." Helper's High One of the benefits is what is called 'helper's high' which has been scientifically confirmed. [1] Of course, if a RRDi member who has rosacea helps another rosacea sufferer that would be the basis for receiving the 'helper's high.' Rosaceans helping rosaceans. In trying to understand why volunteering amongst rosaceans has continued on this downward course, and googling this for an answer, The Guardian has an article about this subject and concluded, "But while the benefits of volunteering are clear, there is worrying evidence that the people who could benefit most from giving their time are precisely those least likely to be involved." The Current State of Volunteering Volunteer Match (which the RRDi has joined) has an article on this subject and states that the Bureau of Labor Statistics Report shows "that volunteer rates have been steadily declining for over a decade," [2] and comments, "There’s an endless supply of reasons that could explain why volunteer rates are falling. Last year, upon seeing the results, VolunteerMatch President Greg Baldwin argued that volunteer rates are falling because we as a nation don’t invest enough resources in the nonprofit sector. Without resources, nonprofits simply don’t have the capacity to effectively engage volunteers. Someone in the comments of that post argued that the falling rates can be attributed to the fact that more people are overworked with less time on their hands. Others say people are simply lazier than they used to be. I personally think it could be attributed to a shifting trend away from community involvement, due to the emergence of online communities, young people moving more often, and other factors." [3] In the above article mentioned [3] there are a number of comments and I think Ron from Florida's [April 16, 2016] comment is insightful: "When I was younger, volunteering and giving back was part of life. It was something that we did and didn’t think twice about it. I don’t see that same philosophy these days. It’s to the point that schools here require some level of community service to complete your graduation requirements." Stem Learning reports, "It is suggested that stagnating volunteer numbers and in some areas, reducing numbers of volunteers, along with cuts made by local authorities falling disproportionately upon the volunteering sector funding, suggests a potential fall in people volunteering per se. Furthermore the 2015/16 Community Life survey, highlighted 14.2 million people formally volunteered at least once a month in 2014/15 and although rates are mostly unchanged, it appears irregular volunteering appear to show a 5% drop!" Carey Nieuwhof lists 6 REASONS YOU'RE LOSING HIGH CAPACITY VOLUNTEERS. I don't see how those six reasons are related to the RRDi, but I am all ears to anyone who can point out to me what the RRDi isn't doing or doing with regard to Carey's six reasons that we could improve. Our page on volunteering covers most of what Carey is discussing. Without a doubt this explains the situation. Any thoughts on this subject would be much appreciated. Online Volunteering Dr. Natalie Hruska says that the studies indicating a drop in volunteering over the past decade "do not factor in kinds of volunteerism today, like virtual volunteering" and writes there is "a necessity to redefine what volunteerism is and how we understand it today." [4] Volunteering Statistics "About 25 percent of Americans volunteered in 2015, according to federal data, compared to a global average of just 10 percent." [5] "The volunteering rate has declined slightly from 27 percent in 2002 despite the efforts of many American leaders..." [5] A Long and Winding Road Volunteering for the RRDi to help fellow rosaceans is a long and winding road that leads to your door, which is without a doubt, the most difficult door to open. Can you open that door and join us to find the cure for rosacea?
