what happened to the bulldogs post

[cameron]

why did the post about the shadiness of the bulldogs get taken down? Everyone has the right to know. I think that a new post will go up every time one goes down.

Look,

Personal attacks aren't permitted. It's simple. If you've got a beef with someone, take it up with that person.

If personal attacks continue, the person who posts gets banned from the message board. Also very simple.

I wouldn't really have called it a personal attack. More like...sometimes the truth hurts. The original post was a heads up to people who may be considering playing. Kind of like if you were about to invest money into a company, and someone told you that you were almost guaranteed to lose that money. Wouldn't you be happy that they told you rather than let you lose your money? I am trying to keep people from being taken advantage of. Form whatever opinion you want, I am looking out for the players.

Regards,
Cameron

Richard's opinion is highly regarded in these parts. I am sure that you may understand why he is asking that you to stop your personal attacks. I have been guilty of that as well, but Richard has put me in my place :) Everyone has an opinion or personal experience that may have a bad taste in your own mouth, but not everyone may have shared that same experience. If you feel so strongly then you can always create your own message board. Don't ruin this for the rest of us.

my 2 cents.

Hi Cameron,

There are many issues involved here. I understand where you are coming from, but a public message board is not the place for such messages. In fact, it puts me into a precarious legal situation. Have you ever heard of libel? I could be sued for libel for allowing certain posts to stand, and I have been threatened with just that several times in the past. I don't charge anyone anything to access this site, and I certainly don't intend to lose everything I've invested in this site because of someone else's personal beef.

Sincerely,
