I do not mean this to sound sarcastic in any way.....but if you are going to block the call letters of one dog club....you should block them all. The letters ***** cannot be used, but AKC, CKC, UKC, ACR, MBDCA can all be used.

Why do you ban that one club?

dinkydog · 10-18-2004, 11:05 AM

See what I mean?

fireworksinjuly · 10-18-2004, 11:32 AM

its blocked due to your spam on the group, not for who and what they are.

you personally ruined it for them on this board.

dinkydog · 10-18-2004, 11:37 AM

I wasn't spamming anyone. I just stated my opinion that I liked this particular organization. Why not just delete my posts if they were spamming. Do you not think that eventually someone else is going to come on here and post about them?

I suppose if I go out and post my 'like' for the other clubs I mentioned that they will also get banned? Is that what needs to be done?

You are discriminating against a club for what you say "I" did. Where is the logic in that?

If stating your acceptance of a particular organization deems spamming - then you guys have alot of work to do because there is alot of spam sitting on your boards.

dinkydog, for one, 3 user names were used to repeatedly post about this club, 2 of the names are confirmed to be the same people. Just having 2 usernames for one person is a violation punishable by banning. Using those accounts for the sole purpose of promoting a registry is known as spam. Therefore, we delete the spam. And, because you've already shown us that you are able to register multiple times to promote the website, we added it to the filter to avoid further spam.

I consider this affair closed and will not discuss it further. If you wish to continue this, my staff will discuss this with you if they feel so inclined.

~~~3 user names were used to repeatedly post about this club, 2 of the names are confirmed to be the same people~~~

Oh so a third person was posting? WoW! So I'm not the only one being scrutinized? The only reason the other 2 names are 'confirmed' are because I told you that they were both mine -which I had no problem admitting.

~~~Just having 2 usernames for one person is a violation punishable by banning.~~~

So you ban the registry instead of banning the person?

I am going to forward this link to the clubs site in hopes it will reach their legal department. This is discrimination plain and simple. You know - it's not that I care SO MUCH about the club - it's the way you think you can pick and choose what information the public sees on thie forum.

If I were you, I'd either take that name off the filter or add the others too it - otherwise you could be in a heap of hot water. Perhaps the BBB would like to see a complaint also.

I agree - no further discussion needed!

I'm glad you and I were able to come to an understanding in private, Dinky.

Sorry...but the this is not a business...it's a forum. The owner can edit whatever, whenever they want. That's little silly!

Kerrie, dinky and I have discussed this in private and have reached a fair agreement. I feel that we should welcome Dinky as a member of the forum and leave this behind us.
