I don't understand why threads that are in good nature are being removed. The guys in the LB room have asked but i guess they are getting taken down in here so maybe you could explain whats happening and why

If there's nagative comments then just get rid of those, but why the entire thread It makes no sense.

Maybe if you looked around you'd see we are getting more diversified posters in the SB room now so why shut it down by not encouraging new input

Hey Rod, as discussed in the LB forum, some posts may be for a troll, rather than being "good natured" .. who knows .. time will tell.

Hopefully we're all on the same page .. we all want a friendly forum full of mates. Certainly, that's my goal.

Let's not have two topics on the same thing .. please let's just talk about surfing eh?

Enjoy ..

I find your post a bit jaded as I have been accused of being a troll previously. I simply offered a different point of view to one of your site sponsors and copped unnecessary aggressive slander. This was because I outlined better products that could assist in resolving an issue that another had posted. I was simply returning the favour as there was some well-informed negative posts that have stopped me from getting burnt.
You seem to turn a blind eye to their (Site Sponsors) aggressive forum behaviour!
I understand they pay your bills but you can't have it both ways.
I personally find it inappropriate when they (Site Sponsors) use the word troll but blatantly prostitute there products through your forums and try to disguise this as advice. They are taking the piss and assuming we are fools. BAD FORM!
I feel you must tread carefully when removing posts that may upset your site sponsors egos.

Hi Al,

Sorry to read your story.

People often think that me/the mods read every single post on every single forum (there's 50 of them), and because somebody has posted something, the mods have "allowed it", which is simply not the case.

It's a bit like suggesting Mark Zuckerberg is responsible for every post on Facebook.

We can't/don't read everything - we're not psychic!

No "blind eye". No favourtism.

If you're unhappy, you need to let us know, either via PM, or report the post ..

Thanks!

I have been informed my comments don't represent a true picture of the Surfing forum. This in part is correct as my comments relate to experiences on the Kite forum.
Sorry for any confusion.

Don't stress, it seems no one has any idea whats happening these days
