Is it true what Caannie gave as an explanation? I have read through, and would just like to give both sides a chance to explain....

yes its true...the only people getting their rocks off to this are the people who fed the info in the first place to create purse drama, as revenge for being banned and I'm sure you can see WHY they were banned!

Which post are you talking about? Where I "summarized" what Vlad himself had said? That former (emphasis on former) BBB members sent Vlad some threads from the BBB and told him that Tammy had a vested interest in Shining Monkey? I think those facts are undisputed.

Purse drama... does this not make you sit back and realize how petty this is for everyone to get so heated over?
Simple fact- we made our decision, the decision stands, and we chose to inform people of what went on for various reasons.

Does that change anything about the severity of what was done? Is a crime not a crime until someone uncovers it?
Besides, it was not just former members, it was also current members who pointed Tammy's involvement with SM and her testimonials. Hence the parenthesis around that earlier statement.
thank you, Caannie and strawberry princess. Aas a new member who wishes to keep her identity a secret and has found this forum both pleasurable and informative, I would just like to give our hosts the courtesy of answering the question as well.

Which questions?
Vlad and my decision to do this was from some information we were given (yep I was given tons of information) and that is why we did this. Much of the information is not going to be disclosed because it would create more issues. Fact is, this is about one person and what one person did- not about 'their' board or multiple people, just one person.
We never said don't use the product or that it sucks and will ruin your bags, because we don't know that. We said exercise caution and let you know about some tactics that were used and some words that were said... it was just information. Not a thread to cause some huge drama pit- whether people want to think that or not.
Honestly, to me it doesn't matter which members pointed it out. I understand the reasoning behind your actions. But I think crime is a little overstated.
The truth is, we have something in common here: You didn't mind Tammy's involvement with SM, you just were bothered by her method of endorsing it. I'm not bothered that you know about Tammy' involvement with SM, I'm just bothered by the method with which you obtained information about it.
Either way, it's not the end of the world. I'm tired of this thread!

So, Vlad, openmidedly and honestly I ask, in order to ease my private mind, are you saying that other people gave you the information and that you didn't "uncover" it through some special administrative means? (whatever you say is good enough for me....certainly not an accusation, you understand, just a question=)))
