Hadit.com’s reputation

Question

  • Founder

There is another site on the web run by former member and frequented by former members. The site has taken to bashing us here and there.

I don’t waste a lot of ink on disgruntled members, I will however address a couple of things.

I am running a fundraiser to pay for the site for a year + money to clean up the malware and hacking we are currently under.

it’s optional, if you can give great, if you can’t I understand.. I have a very different site than one that others run. It costs more than others, we actually run two sites the Wordpress side and forum side.

trolls will show up from time to time, please do not feed them.

and remember

Currently, there are many competitors. Some require subscriptions; some sell books, and others herald their own hero stories. There are plenty of those. You know, the ones a veteran hires a representative, and that rep writes a blog post showing off their hero abilities to help this veteran and bloviate, so we know how clever they are. That's all fine and good. At HadIt.com, though, you were the hero. The average veteran made a difference in another veteran's life. That was the story of HadIt.com.

This last year saw an unprecedented attack on the site: malicious malware and several other destructive attacks.

Why? A competitor or disgruntled visitor usually instigates these particular types of attacks. Of which we have both.

I am writing my memoirs and would love it if you could help a shipmate out and look at it.

I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life.

The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.

Every since I have joined Hadit, all have been great. I was actually a member since 2018. My name has changed due to the fact of new phone and email so I had to create a new one. My last user name was All the way and I think 80duece. 

But anyways this site is great. Lots of great info especially from the elders like Berta  GB, Broken, Dustoff, Vync, lots of others and number one Tbird.

I wish that I could afford to donate but at this time and moment, I can not due to unemployment and spending money for imo,s DBQ,s trying to get into the 100 club.

I do promise, once I get my blessings, I will spread my blessings.

Sometimes and often a competing party will successfully use low down dirty street fighting actions (lies) that win the battle and the war while the victim goes down to defeat in dust with self-righteous principle. To each his own.

Fight fire with fire but do it smartly.

No way to know who did this, but we are keeping our ear to the ground.

    • VA has gotten away with (mis) interpreting their  ambigious, , vague regulations, then enforcing them willy nilly never in Veterans favor.  

      They justify all this to congress by calling themselves a "pro claimant Veteran friendly organization" who grants the benefit of the doubt to Veterans.  

      This is not true, 

      Proof:  

          About 80-90 percent of Veterans are initially denied by VA, pushing us into a massive backlog of appeals, or worse, sending impoverished Veterans "to the homeless streets" because  when they cant work, they can not keep their home.  I was one of those Veterans who they denied for a bogus reason:  "Its been too long since military service".  This is bogus because its not one of the criteria for service connection, but simply made up by VA.  And, I was a homeless Vet, albeit a short time,  mostly due to the kindness of strangers and friends. 

          Hadit would not be necessary if, indeed, VA gave Veterans the benefit of the doubt, and processed our claims efficiently and paid us promptly.  The VA is broken. 

          A huge percentage (nearly 100 percent) of Veterans who do get 100 percent, do so only after lengthy appeals.  I have answered questions for thousands of Veterans, and can only name ONE person who got their benefits correct on the first Regional Office decision.  All of the rest of us pretty much had lengthy frustrating appeals, mostly having to appeal multiple multiple times like I did. 

          I wish I know how VA gets away with lying to congress about how "VA is a claimant friendly system, where the Veteran is given the benefit of the doubt".   Then how come so many Veterans are homeless, and how come 22 Veterans take their life each day?  Va likes to blame the Veterans, not their system.   
    • Welcome to hadit!  

          There are certain rules about community care reimbursement, and I have no idea if you met them or not.  Try reading this:

      https://www.va.gov/resources/getting-emergency-care-at-non-va-facilities/

         However, (and I have no idea of knowing whether or not you would likely succeed) Im unsure of why you seem to be so adamant against getting an increase in disability compensation.  

         When I buy stuff, say at Kroger, or pay bills, I have never had anyone say, "Wait!  Is this money from disability compensation, or did you earn it working at a regular job?"  Not once.  Thus, if you did get an increase, likely you would have no trouble paying this with the increase compensation.  

          However, there are many false rumors out there that suggest if you apply for an increase, the VA will reduce your benefits instead.  

      That rumor is false but I do hear people tell Veterans that a lot.  There are strict rules VA has to reduce you and, NOT ONE of those rules have anything to do with applying for an increase.  

      Yes, the VA can reduce your benefits, but generally only when your condition has "actually improved" under ordinary conditions of life.  

          Unless you contacted the VA within 72 hours of your medical treatment, you may not be eligible for reimbursement, or at least that is how I read the link, I posted above. Here are SOME of the rules the VA must comply with in order to reduce your compensation benefits:

      https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/38/3.344

       
    • Good question.   

          Maybe I can clear it up.  

          The spouse is eligible for DIC if you die of a SC condition OR any condition if you are P and T for 10 years or more.  (my paraphrase).  

      More here:

      Source:

      https://www.va.gov/disability/dependency-indemnity-compensation/

      NOTE:   TO PROVE CAUSE OF DEATH WILL LIKELY REQUIRE AN AUTOPSY.  This means if you die of a SC condtion, your spouse would need to do an autopsy to prove cause of death to be from a SC condtiond.    If you were P and T for 10 full years, then the cause of death may not matter so much.
