How much we want to earn money: Locked

Really?

I can just guess which site sponsor this is.

Seabreeze imo should be a place where one can get info on shady operators as well as good ones.

Hi Baps, welcome to Seabreeze.

The policy was built from 10 years of forum moderation experience... and it applies to any business, regardless of whether they sponsor seabreeze.

Complaints about a business/associations

When this occurs, the poster is usually quite fired up and emotional. Often the customer is now out to cause as much damage as possible to the business with the mission that they are "fully justified" (their words) and "simply stating facts" (their words) about the business/association.

This may be the case .. or not. There are many sides to any story. The point is that the Seabreeze forums are not the appropriate place to resolve the issue. Go to the appropriate legal/government authority and do it there.

Choose not to, and end up in hot water. As soon as you flame a business, you'll usually get supporters of the business come out in defence and question your behaviour and motives. People interested in the discussion will seek more information from you. It soon descends into an argument containing many and varied versions of the truth and everybody goes home unhappy.

It has never ended well for anybody.

The business is damaged, the poster now has a stigma in the forum community (and now can't deal with many shops because the shops know what will happen if they cross this customer - there business will get dragged through the mud.)

And of course, there's also the situation when the poster does not really have a complaint, but is simply a competitor or naive associate of a business who thinks the way to get more business is to degrade the competition.

A special note: This applies (and has been applied) to any business, not just businesses that sponsor the site.

Seabreeze is about a fair deal for people. We don't support kangaroo courts and dragging peoples names/businesses through the mud via anonymous logins. There is always two sides to a story, usually both biased in their favour!

Hope that helps...

Enjoy your time here!

That would be a first on here.
