Oli, a question for you? - Page 1

I want to know why this thread has been allowed to stay www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/bulletins_read/447045.html when other similar threads have been removed.

From the TOS  # 7.Email excerpts of ANY type or length are not allowed on pedigreedatabase.com. There are no exceptions to this rule. So why has an exception been made for this thread?

Actually, yes all of that HAS occured to me.
 
I was also very aware this was a scam. I've seen the exact same scam artist in action myself. I highly suspect this person has been trying to scam a RESCUE but suspicion is not fact so I have said nothing about it even though I was aware of it and this person months ago.



Absolutely not. I have always been outspoken about these things NOT being allowed here and having no place here. I don't agree with the constant back and forth sniping and baiting beween certain individuals here either. If you seach back through my prior posts, you will see I am in favor of moderation here and support it.

But, you miss my point above. Why was this thread allowed to stay when other similar threads were deleted? What makes this one different? And why was an exception made for the email posts on this thread when Oli's TOS clearly states it is not allowed with no exceptions? Posting someone's private communication and email address withpout their consent or knowledge has always been frowned on here. My point is, rules are fine. But apply them fairly and equally to all or what is the point?

Mod,
your answer, to say it mildly, is quite lame.
Actually, yes we all do agree, DELETE, BANN abusers, cheaters, racists, that all would be ok with us. But do not attemp to delete legitimat posts, as was done again & again. This is ridiculess. When it does not fit your opinion, oh what the heck, lets just delete it. Pathetic.

Hello Ulli!
I hope you and your family are well. it is nice to see you here as always. :-)

OOOPS,
am I wrong, or has Jim's original post "Oli, a question for you ?" vanished ??
Moderator, did that thread get out of hand aswell, or was it just not the tone you wished to hear ?

Great post MJ, so true!  Hi Ulli, how have you been?

when that  thread first appeared I was shocked to read a moderator acussing someone of scamming and or being a crook! I ask why the moderators was allowed to do such a thing and was promptly banned! Moderators must be carefull that they do not liable themselves while acting as a moderator  ! While acting on behalf of the site owner and making slanderous remarks they can be sucessfully sued ! Now I will post this in mortal fear of being banned again but 

Hey GSDtravels,
I am just fine, thanks for asking. Hope everything is well with you too. Still waiting on your book, dont give up on it. And dont wait too long, memorys have sometimes the bad habbit of getting lost rather quick, and I sure do not want to miss any of it !!
Besides that, PDB gets to a point where it is rather annoying than a pleasuere to be around. Neverless, I try to help out where I can, but the base I thought I have here is in a state that becomes more & more frightening.
All the bbest to you.
Ulli

That's the trouble with having mods.
Each one becomes judge, jury, and executioner.
(if the moderators are not controlled - or moderated - ha)

I was lurking and watching some threads - they are all gone.
My last post asked for a youtube link - thread gone.

I also know being a mod is fun at first, then becomes inconvienent, then is a royal pain and consumes too much time - first hand.

The board I moderated on - mods had usernames, pm's, were encouraged to help or participate in discussions and there was a "head" moderator that was in control of mods.

I saw Slamdunc's question last night - hmmm  where did that one go?


Just my 2 cents - back to lurking.
