ALL the mods are here in London at the moment (I saw them all today) so don't expect them to be moderating anything right now!
Not that I agree anything needs moderating; Roanan is entitled to express his opinion, and DaveSold has no right to demand that it be censored IMHO.
This forum supports free speech (up to a point) - which it what makes it so great!
KK
I agree ROANAN has the RIGHT to express his opinion - however - on this board there ARE rules that draw the line at PERSONAL attacks.
And I believe Roanan - however much I like or dislike him has crossed that line...
And EVEN more specifically pasted a specific CONTACT page in a very VERBAL attack.
I know nothing about Virtual - I know nothing about DAVE - but I do know about the rules here - and Roanan did step out of the boundaries on this one....
Whether an apology is deserved or not - dunno.
But I would like to leave with this comment:
Once I worked in a NightClub.... I was a fun, young cocktail waitress who enjoyed her job - and LOVED serving the folks that came in.
I made great money.
Later - the place was "busted" as a money laundering place for the Mafia.
I didn't know that - I saw things that made me think "wow - ok - what was that.. Maybe it wasn't what I saw.... "
Or
"hmmm should they be doing that?"
But I was young - left the brain as soon as the next drink order came in.
I made GOOD money - so - it wasn't something tooooo terrible - it wasn't uncomfortable - and it wasn't OBVIOUS to ME.
But - if someone dared say to me: YOU WORKED AT A MAFIA PLACE - YOU ARE SCUM....
I would think extremely bad of them.
Sometimes employees are just as much the victim as the rest of the world.
Whether this is the same as Dave's situation - I don't know... But what I DO know - is that he is currently no longer with the operation that Roanan has the problem with.
Therefor - perhaps instead of going after the employee - go after the business - cause it seems like the employee got the heck out of Dodge - and maybe for the same reasons you're angry at the employer....
Think about it first.
Because I KNOW that I HAD NOTHING to do with laundering anything - and I KNOW that I didn't do anything evil or wrong.
Just a thought to leave you with.................
