My NEW Policy

camaraderie · #1 (**permalink**) 02-12-2009

Since Sailnet will no longer allow ME or ANYONE else to post negative comments whether true or not about vendors or manufacturers as a matter of policy....(see here:http://www.sailnet.com/forums/genera...-c-yachts.html)

...I have some new policies as well.

1. Since I am not allowed to post on all sides of an issue related to boating here...I will no longer post here on ANY issue related to boating here OR privately in PM's. I will simply hang out in off topic with my friends and discuss all sides of those issues since they are not moderated. Anyone wishing MY opinion about anything boating related may find me at Boating, Sailing and Cruising Forum: For Cruisers - BY Cruisers where I can say what I want.

2. I will no longer recommend the sailnet store to others. I will no longer encourage the support of a place that does not support at LEAST the ability to post FACTS.

Sorry Rob...but your post today went too far and I am done supporting you.
CruisingDad/JRP/Jeff_H... none of this is directed at you guys...I know how hard you work behind the scenes to avoid stuff like this. You do what you HAVE to do. No hard feelings.

Cam- sorry to hear that it has come to this, but I can't blame you at all. See you over on Cruisers forum.

I may just join you. I certainly support you.

Being in Oz and far away from the USA, I found this place was the best and most honest forum, to find real information on the pros and cons for any boat available in the states. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Time will tell, but I don't think this can end well.

There's "Cruisers Forum" or CF and then there's the new guy in town: Boating, Sailing and Cruising Forum: For Cruisers - BY Cruisers
this is what cam is referring to

See ya'll there. I don't plan on abandoning SailNet; but I expect that one or the other will eventually dominate, because really, who has the time to devote to TWO forums of this magnitude.

Cam - why did you pick that site vs. cruisersforum.com or another heavily used site?
