it wasn't very nice?
i simply asked if i had been going in on the wrong days.
hey you know what? I enjoy going to all the fish stores around town, the people are friendly the fish are nice to look at as well as the corals.

is it my fault that you don't take the dead fish out of your tank and i posted about it?
hey how about saying HI when a potential customer comes in, i came in one day and you looked at me as though i was there to inconvenience you. and every other time i have come in i have not been greeted.

i simply posted to see what other customers thought of your store, and maybe see if there were good days to go.

I enjoy Golds more than any of the other stores in town because the people there are friendly and they greet you and chit chat no matter how busy they are. as well if you think that I am the only person on the board that enjoys being greeted you are wrong. i understand that all fish stores will have dead fish and corals in their tanks from time to time. but come on how long does it take to take a couple dead fish out ESPECIALLY when you have as many in your tanks as you do at least one dead fish for every 2 tanks!

Richard

why was the thread deleted last night? and why did i not receive an email or pm, in case i was breaking some forum rules it would be nice to be informed of my mis-compliance. if anyone knows?

I only really shop at one store because of the people that opperate it. I'll probably just keep going there for as long as I'm in this hobby.

Ok. Guys, you're forcing me to put my moderator's hat on for a second.

The thread was removed because we don't allow vendor reviews here. Sorry. Sometimes one or two might get missed but when they get high profile enough to be noticed they get removed. Again I'm sorry but you won't find many boards that do allow the practise. This was something that was learned the hard way.

If your thread gets removed and you don't get a warning PM, consider it a freebie. It means you're not in trouble, but the thread had questionable content (it may not even be by the thread originator) that gets it removed from the public eye. We do sometimes try to PM people but sometimes it's just not practical to PM everyone, so sometimes it will happen it just gets removed without an explanation.

I think missing something here just gets everyone wondering and speculating. Just IMHO.

True, .. I'll try to be more proactive about any thread I move. But I can't always do it for those where it's not me pulling the strings.

Odd indeed, my interest has been peeked. But from what is led on here about "last night's" thread leads me to believe it wasn't very pretty. Brings me back to the old BA's days.

Well, it kind of *is*...since you decided to post about it. I'm not trying to be a sh1t disturber here, but we're talking about someone's livelihood, and something in which they put lots and lots of effort. To flame that publicly isn't nice, that was just my point.

If I don't like a store, for whatever reason, that's my right and privilege. I just think it's in poor taste to state that publicly, in a forum where Calgary's customer base will definitely read it.
