TPF may earn a commission from merchant affiliate
links, including eBay, Amazon, and others
It amazes me that this needs to actually be repeated. Is it not obvious why this rule is in placewe can't control what you do OFF tPF, please just do not use tPF as a platform or as leverage by mentioning tPF.
first of all, just because YOU haven't witnessed something, doesn't mean it doesn't or isn't happening
It's OUR RULE, if you guys don't like it, PM Vlad and Megs.
2nd of all, no one in this thread, said at any point, you cannot share experiences![]()
let me make it clear, SHARE ALL YOU LIKE!!!
this is really very simple, we do not allow people to use this website as a platform in which to launch attacks or complaints against any retailer, the fact that it's a B-Bag retailer is irrelevant. NO ONE CAN DO THIS.
Finally, I have NO idea what your final comment means. . . but if you think we don't run this massive website full of women the way you see fit, feel free to start your own![]()
it doesn't have to say it, as you can see, my name is in another colorhi swanky! - are you a mod? - it doen't say so on your avatar.
thank you for your kind advice - or have you just launched a (personal) attack on my comments?
i apologise if the words i have chosen to use have confused you. i don't recall saying that you & your huge group of women are not running this massive website the way i see fit - those are the words you have chosen to use.
this is SO far off topic from this thread that it's actually confusing. Sounds like you have issues w/ other threads or peoplei would have to say that in my opinion it is a very small group of women not so much running it but controlling it. there is a difference. there is also a fine line between controlling & manipulating. i am merely pointing out that if we are only permitted to post positive things eg about how much everyone loves their perfect bags, always receives perfect CS etc etc then it's not really a forum is it?
i am perfectly capable & comfortable to speak on my own, i do not need the backing of any other tpf members nor would i ever manipulate other members into agreeing with my opinions. though i do not agree with "gagging" members not because of the use of inappropriate behavior, such as naming SA's, foul language, threats etc. but because you don't want any negative (or truthful) posts appearing on a forum.
it is surely not appropriate then, to use the tpf to launch an array of praise & compliments on a store or SA as this could be seen as a member wishing to gain preferential treatment? or do the same rules not apply?
how does that have anything to do w/ this.
It's exasperating to have to spell it out again,
DO NOT WRITE A LETTER USING TPF IN IT
now i'm a littlehow would one differentiate between a post advising of an unpleasant customer service experience or the receipt of a faulty bag and "using the tpf as a platform to launch an attack against a retailer"?
simple
the first example is merely communicating w/ the forum one's disppointment.
the 2nd one is using someone else's business name, tPF, to gain leverage when writing a complaint letter to ANY company.
Why is it so difficult to understand we don't want you writing a letter that says:
On behalf of the Balenciaga member at the Purse Forum we . . . . . .
or whatever.
seriously
PM me if you want to further argue points irrelevent to this topic.
