Admin...please clarify...

[joeanne]

Dear Admin,
Please may I draw to your attention the following points that I personally would like to have an answer to without skirting around the subject as you appear to state the same statement again and again.

1) Why has JM been banned for swearing, yet others merely recieved a warning?
2) How is JM supposed to complain about the treatment she has received at the hands of a certain forum member when she is banned?
3)Why has Lucretia been banned given that from what other forum members can garner, she did nothing that should have earned her account being terminated (in fact did yourselves not behave unapproprately in your referal to "small worlds we operate in"??? Pot, Kettle, Black.....do you not think?)
4) Why are all the facts not taken into account when deciding if a warning or ban should be issued, surely the "why" thread showed there was only one post that stood out amongst the rest? Admin I feel you ought to remove your blinkers!

Thankies!

I don't thing any of us know what Lucretia did to get banned for good, that is the point

Hopefully admin will answer Joeanne's questions and we will be enlightened.

I didn't know Lucretia had been banned! Although i did wonder where they had gone. Such a shame, i really respected her, as i do JM.

Somehow I don't think admin will be all that bothered about it. They aren't 'cutting their noses off to spite their faces' because this is a free service .. by losing a few member nothing will change , they aren't losing subscriptions (to the forum)

The forum is, presumably, funded by the advertisers, who may well think twice about advertising if they feel that fewer forum users will read their adverts.
This could well be the case if all those members whose opinions are respected either are banned or opt not to use the forum because other members whose opinions are worth noting stop using the forum.
If the forum becomes somewhere to ask 'where should I advertise? or 'How much should I ask?', both of which are barely concealed advertising, I forsee this becoming a numpties only forum.
Perhaps a moderator would be a better option than Admin, if the moderator truly moderated rather than just acceding to every request made by any troublemaker without investigation into the claims made.

L got banned because she doesn't buy advertising space!
JM has been banned because its wrong to pick on Bunny Huggers even when its them throwing stones!!

I'm sure in the weeks to come many more of us will suffer the cull, and admin will have a list of topics that we can talk about.

HHO might be provided free as admin is keen to point out but dear admin FREEDOM of speech came at a cost and I thank everyone of those who gave me my voice, as I'm sure L and JM do too.

Her own post, 'Why?', was removed due to references to French Rescue and also due to large amounts of offensive language by various other forum members.

Discussion about the issues surrounding the importation of horses which were intended for the human food chain is acceptable as long as no individuals (real names or online usernames), companies/organisations or horses are named or identified in any way.

TBH the most offensive on that thread, was no doubt also the button pusher.

I too have had my wrists slapped for saying an irish word which could be construed as two people making love.. which I really think is rather a large ammount of faeces considering rather a few of the words used in the past..

Perhaps the word filtering system needs updating to include the likes of female dog, chipfat and the likes

Ah perhaps that is the common denominator as said Bunny Hugger advertises her nags on H&H (when she's not advertising on HM).

Who is Bunny Hugger PLEASE!!!!!!!

Hasn't threads in the past been pulled purely because they have mentioned the French Rescue situation even if they haven't mentioned names (real name or online usernames). Think Admin needs to clarify this point. I can't remember any of the "Why" posts actually stating names (mind you, nor did some of the other French Rescue posts that were pulled).
