This is so you all know why Wolf have left the site.:-


2009/1/9 PicturesOfEngland.com <uk2@picturesofengland.com>

Hi Wolf
 
I have just removed some of your inappropriate comments from a few of your custom tours.
Here is reference to the ones I removed, along with the link to the picture they were under -
 
http://www.picturesofengland.com/user/Wolf/tour/Wolfs_Statue_of_Limitations/pictures/1048561
Some called him Robin Hood, to others he was just a Robin Bastard.
 
 
 
 
All the above comments are inappropriate for the site. Please keep it clean, respectful, and remember its a family friendly site.
 
Also, please could you refrain from making disrespectful remarks aimed towards the moderators on the site. This will not be tolerated and if it continues will result in your account being banned. May we suggest if you have a problem, please contact us directly by email so we can help resolve it.
 

Kind regards,

And the reason I have left is simply because I am sick and tired of one rule for a certain few and one for the rest of us. My posts  were deleted by Ron as he didnt 'want another row to start' (quote).....but its ok for others to completely cock up threads still, the 'favoured' ones!! ?? I know i'm not that important in here, even though i've been with this site since almost the beginning, but that doesn't seem to count for anything now. All my photo's are gone from  here...at my reuquest.

Wolf, it's not the first time you've posted inappropriate material. A warning was long overdue, and we stand by it. The above was sent to you in an email, privately, but we'll leave it there for now as we have nothing to hide from anyone. We are just trying to run a site that the majority seem to enjoy. We are sorry you feel strongly enough to leave, and to have seen it necessary to post the above email.

The disruption of threads has improved, and will improve further Lyn. All we can do is try our best. There is a lot more to the site to enjoy than just the forum, but again, if you feel not enough has been done soon enough, we are sorry.

*******

As you know Wolf, I have the power, and that, in my humble opinion was not nice and certainly not acceptable.

I totally disagree with you Chris & Sarah, you are deleting the wrong peoples threads! Loyalty does not appear to come into it, but chat away all you want and muck up perfectly sensible and interesting threads and thats allowed! I think your 'moderators' should learn how to moderate. I wonder how long it will be before this is deleted!?

No threads have been deleted Lyn. Any posts that disrespect the moderators have. We can't allow that and no forum would.
Regarding threads being mucked up, things have improved.

You've done yourself no favours by writing that Wolf. That is so disrespectful, especially considering children log onto this site. A PRIVATE E-mail would have been better. No matter what axe you have to grind, that was wrong of you.

I meant posts not threads, my mistake! Your 'moderators' don't seem to be doing a very good job if I may say, the rules are there for everyone but they are still being flaunted by a few and nothing is done, but perfectly innocent posts such as i made are deleted by Ron! Or are rules made to be broken by a select few only????

Tisk, tisk Lyn. You have absolutely NO IDEA what I have done both on this site and the many, many emails I have received and replied to, some supportive, some nasty.

Being a moderator in no fun at all, believe me. We don't just go around deleting and editing willy nilly.

Now I know I've made mistakes, and apologized for them both personally in emails and on the forums, but I have sweat blood at times to do the right thing on here as a moderator and I am almost offended by your post.
