You can say anything about anything or anyone here...as long as its nice????
Somehow it just doesnt seem right that an avenue such as this which is used for the betterment of all who use it is restricted in the information that it provides. Ideally if a product or service is substandard or not we should be able to discuss it openly for better or worse. Unfortunate that an internet forum should be liable for damages when its just random people helping each other out by recomending the good and slamming the bad.
Mabey this is why EBAY actually works, youre allowed to rate your experience truthfully.

Poontang has a valid point.

Are we to be throat tied, always knowing where the line is drawn regarding good/bad experiences we may have encountered in our day to day lives as Aquatists?

I think all of us here are familiar with the laws concerning liable. If you treat opinions here as what they are.....opinions...... then the board is exposed to no dangers.

If, on the other hand, you choose to log on here and knowingly spread lies and un-truths.... then I think that's what the "Admin" posts were all about.....

Hope this clarifies.......

Continue to post either your pleasures or tantrums

btw, you can name any business you want......

Um, ya, pretty much throat tied, as you put it. Essentially, if you have nothing nice to say about some store/user, etc, say nothing at all. BTW, no, you can't name any business you want, you can follow the rules of the board. Which are as I just stated above. The laws of libel (not liable) do not apply here. The laws of private property do, and as a privately owned board, the owner decides what gets said and by whom. It's all very simple. Thank you.

I stand corrected......
Unfortunately.....
By the "Rules" of this board. There are alot of boards that don't have this restriction.

don't throat tie me.........

..

I see that as a perfect solution to the problem. Got something bad to say, go to a different board to say it.

Btw, your unedited post was better....

If your gonna censor the "bad" post, you should follow through with it and censor the rest of the posts that named the store in question.

At this time we're trying to get a point across to the few members that don't understand the policy. Do not bad mouth anyone or any store on this board.

Just seems kinda pointless to edit the original post and then let others name the store in subsequent posts.
