I respectfully disagree. This has nothing to do with drama or board wars. This affects our industry, as the two largest Affiliate Communities have fallen out with each other. Surely both GPWA and CAP should be on the same page working together.
This is in my opinion a very important issue and one that should not only be resolved, but the affiliates who are members of both communities should be told as to what has happened.
Whether you agree or not, Michael and his team are highly respected in the industry as are Lou and his team. I am hoping that they can work out any issues they may have with each other in London come January.
Hi Webzcas,
I hope you know that I have the utmost respect for you as well as Nandakishore!
While I can see where you are coming from, I just know from personal experience that the public fighting does not help. I once had a forum war with someone that I am great friends with now and that would never have happened if the two of us did not handle it in private and therefore making our face to face accidental meeting at a conference turn into a awesome evening. I now truly like this person a lot and if I would have allowed myself to continue to be dragged in a public forum war that would never have happened.
That is the reason for my opinion. While it’s good for drama it’s really NO ONES business other than the two parties involved whether it be Lou/Michael or Lou and the indiviuals that feel they were wrongly banned.
I was around for some of the bans and I have to say that being a forum owner I would have done the same thing under the circumstances! IMO just because you are forum owner you don’t have to let others dictate how you run your business because you will never be able to make everyone happy nor should you be forced to!
Peace :hattip:
