That's fine, but as I said, it needs to work both ways.
If the forum is going down the line where comment is to be restrained in the hope 'insiders' continue to share information in their own time, then maybe certain insiders will start to hold back on one or two of the things they come out with or the attitude they can show.
When insiders from independents threw accusations around - they were banned.
When less influential members from the SNE workforce threw comments around, they were banned.
Did any members of the GNE workforce get banned after throwing around comments, admitting to trolling certain members and potentially putting their social media policy at risk of being breached?
When I have had things said to me or I have been accused of being or doing x, y or z - apparently it being done at the same time I was bombing up the A1 from Lincolnshire, to get to the RVI to see my son, who was lying in intensive care, were those people banned? Did I windge, moan, kick up a fuss, use report buttons or stop posting?
I admit, there has been bickering and I hold my hands up to admit falling foul of it.
9 times out of 10, it has been an employee bickering with me. Strange that.
You are right, we do have our own interests and a lot of it is aligned with political or personal interests.
We all have our own writing styles, with some being more active, more popular or displaying a certain attitude.
Some of the insiders are open and honest, admitting who they work for or it being pretty obvious who they work for.
There is maybe one or two, less obvious posters. However, there are some of us, who know the devil behind the detail.
I hope I comment on behalf of everyone, when I say we all appreciate the effort that goes on behind the scenes and the information which is shared by insiders - but to repeat, it needs to work both ways and I do believe the forum will become a poorer place, if we are to hold back from fair comment, debate and opinion, so that insiders are kept sweet and that balance is kept.
Who mentioned North Korea?
