I can feel for the person who has had his posts removed complaining about a certain manufacturer.

From what I gather this member feels agrieved by all parties in this.

I realise that the legal side of things make airing grievances on forums very hard and can attract litigation,however in saying that where do you go when you have all avenues blocked?

I am sure Cindy has done the right thing in removing the posts but when you feel hard done by................................ 

Try these site's, Cindy did the right thing IMHO

Gday...

I can empathise with your thoughts ... and perhaps for the "deleted poster" ..... however, to be honest, there are many avenues an individual can pursue complaints such as those raised. I fail to see how raising them on any forum such as these can do anything to resolve the issues.

It may solicit empathy, supportive comment and help to relieve one's stress - but it is not the place to find a resolution.

It is wise for these sort of posts to be discouraged (and removed if necessary) to maintain the integrity of the forum and its members.

Or Whirlpool, see the Lounge forum for other products etc;

Hi Trevor, I think it was a case of contents and the number of posts from the one person one after another and all were similar contents, a case of going over board in my opinion anyway. I just kept clear of Techies Corner for a while.
