PWNA Editing Posts

Why should I even bother to post my comments and opinions on PWNA bb board if they call it advertizing and remove my post and comments? They are starting what other boards have with me in the past. I see a new inproved product and post it for people to see and they call it advertizing. I did not put a price or try to sell it or even promote the company I work for, but the post was deleted anyways. I linked the post to the original manufacture web page. If someone is interested in the product they can contact the manufacture and find an authorized dealer in their area. I was not trying to make money on it. I was just trying to show something that I thought would be usefull to contract cleaners. Why should I even bother to try and help people with a decision on any product they have purchased or are concidering to purchase if my post gets deleted. Why bother to help PWNA on any post requiring my assistance or Knowledge if I have to pay them to give my opinion on what is good or what is available in the marketplace.
 
John,
As I posted on your board, I know the feeling. I also posted a link to a site and it was deleted with a note form the Administrator saying it is not allowed since I do not have an associate membership.
I do not sell products, just wanted to let people know about a cool product I had seen and give them the idea if they were not already aware of it.
PWNA is about Money, show it to them, or they will show you the door.
 
John,
Micheal Hindeliter is going to call you Tomorrow(Monday) I believe.
At least hear him out. I know you help a ton of people out through these bb's myself included. An organization like the PWNA where to be a member one has to pay, its a touchy subject on how to let guys like yourself post certain things when you have paying Distributers/Manufacturers/Contractors.

Remarks like Mr Alan's doesn't do any justice for anyone. I guess he is just venting for whatever reason. Of course Money is a factor with the PWNA. Like any SUCCESFUL Organization Money is Always a factor....just like in business. This Organization is also out there for us guys which is there top priority. How do I know this???Simple. None of the Board of directors are getting paid. They are there for us...plain and simple.

Rules though are rules. Just look at PWN bb and what happens over there. This bb(PWI) has the most freedoms then all....but don't forget it doesn't generate any money which is the reasons why we have all these freedoms.

John- I have a ton of respect for you as do many others. Listen to what Mike H. has to say and take it from there.
 
Wiz for what it's worth I ALWAYS read your words and have learned a ton from you.

To be censored when you're blatantly breaking the rules is one thing, but to get the axe when trying to honestly help a Pressure Washing Contractor in need, or for that matter the whole Pressure Washing community in gereral is in my mind unnecessary.

There's criteria on just about all of these boards, and I'd be naive not to admit that one has to be careful not to step on toes on some of these bbs.

One step closer to that paid bbs in my mind. Will be interesting to see the "criteria" on that one!!
 
Well, he called me and we worked things out. Thanks for all of the support!

:D
