Ok, bad joke for this thread...

And this is why you are known as the "ROGUE MOD"

vendors here have paid XXXX amount of dollars for the right to have a forum of their own to advertise what they carry and have in stock etc......These forums are paid for by the vendor and should be moderated by the vendor.......I myself have deleted posts out the the RC forum....mostly because the poster was being an A-hole.......for someone to go into one vendors forum and advertise the vendors competition is a bit of a slap in the face......No?.......

I agree that as a sponsor on this site there has to be a bit of leeway in what is allowed, I had actually given a reference answer to a fellow Canreef sponsor, not a non member sponsor site{ I want to clarify this}So this other member has also paid to be a member as well. I was unaware of the boundaries of the supplier for this product but I want everyone to understand. I would gladly have changed/edited my post or would have accepted it being deleted with a reasonable explanation of why, but here is the meat of the dispute here...My answer was not deleted or wiped out, it was changed to a different answer completely making it look like my answer...which it wasn't. So I don't want to ruffle feathers here, I just want to know all the rules and boundaries so this doesn't happen again. I don't believe anyone on any forum or group has the right to change another persons answer. Delete it..sure in some cases absolutely, edit it if there is offensive language - you bet. Not change it though.

We absolutely agree with you and are taking measures to ensure that this doesn't happen again.

I don't think the post was made to promote the competition, its more likely that when clicking on the link to the thread, the information on where the thread was located was missed. It was probably thought to be in the main forum. Sometimes in the excitement of actually having the answer to a question, this information can get missed. I know I've done it a few times but caught myself. Its just unfortunate this time.

I agree with Doug on this point, venders pay, we do not. I believe that they should have the right to moderate as they see fit, especially when it deals with the competition. (Now whether this was the case or not, I cannot say)
