That is exactly what this area is here for, and not a bit of any of the previous issue.

One of my "jobs" as a site administrator is to step in and help clear up bad deals. When someone posts in the review area, it automatically alerts powerdriver and myself via email. There is no grief in this, just a lack of understanding. I have only tried to show you why, nothing more, or less.

Again, what I said above, in addition not replying would be letting someone get a bad name without getting the facts. That is just not cool. I am sure you would not appreciate it being done to you.

We are replying to the questions and or statements made. It is a message board, that's how it works.. folks post, replies are made. In not doing so, we are not doing our jobs.

Exactly my position. I have zero reason to post in reply to you just because. We are here to help show you what went wrong, and hopefully prevent it from happening again. If someone reading this learns something, that helps also.

If you review the replies, they do come across as quite defensive. Perhaps unintentional, but does tend to get the same tone in replies.

Please show me where exactly I came at you swinging? I simply pointed out that it was not a bad deal, and showed the guidelines to explain it in my first few replies.

The deleting posts was explained in Josh's reply.

No one asked you to lurk, or feel as if you are not valuable as a member. The only thing we ask is that you review the rules, and follow them. Just as all members are expected to do.
