Timberwolf Organics - We're Still Here!

    Sooner..who's removing the reps? No one...links have been removed...only. Not the reps themselves.
     
    They are still members...able to receive PM's and email if they choose...as free to post here within the rules as any other member. They do not require special status or indulgences from my perspective, in order to pass on information and answer questions.

    ????? No one said they should receive any special considerations, or that they'd been removed. However if their company name is removed from every post, regardless of whether that post breaks the rules or not, they are going to stop posting.

    Aww I think you can give the reps more credit than that lol...
    her name and number are still there...so's the company name....same is in her profile...
    As that post up there stands....I see plenty  to ID her as a rep.
     
    Guess I don't see the mountain in this particular molehill.

    they can let you know who they are without spamming the forum.


    Fair enough.  Thanks.

    Like I said, there is a difference in selling and providing information. I don't see why a post would be edited if it doesn't break the rules.

    9.)     Selling or solicitation of anything in the forum will be considered SPAM and is prohibited.

    11.) Do not post links which lead to an affiliate program or any way provide personal gain. Gain is having an affiliate ID, website or if you earn money from banner impressions or click-thru#%92s.

    Again, I dont' see that this post is any different from the EP post.  Product and company names were front and center and people were squealing about the EP post so I edited.  If I edited that one, I had to edit this one.  Both are dog food and both were at the very least walking on the fine line.
     
    This horse is officially dead.  I emailed Kelly, she backs me up on making the correct decision, so that decision stands.  Fussing about it won't change anything.

    FWIW--I'm torn about food reps posting at all. On one hand it's nice to develop a "relationship" with John or Chris and have them know me a little better when I do e-mail them a question. 
     
    But, on the other hand all this posting by food reps bothers me a little.  They "advertise" here but the companies don't really pay for advertising.  Honestly, I think they shouldn't do that.  It's not as if they don't get enough advertising here without having to join in with us.
     
    And, this is not personal to any of the reps.  John's been helpful to me in the past and I know others have been helped too it's just the idea of it all.

    So, wait.
    Since he's not allowed to post his company's name or whatever was edited, for whatever reason, are we allowed to direct questions in this thread to him?

    I mean, I think it's something that all those here that feed Timberwolf have a RIGHT TO KNOW.
    Therefore, I'd rather simply ask it here than PM or email it.

    Lori I agree...I kinda have mixed feelings about it, personally as well.
    • Gold Top Dog
    Why would this affect posting questions? LOL...
     
    The only thing I can even see that's been removed is a link, folks....the name of the company IS STILL IN THE POST...along with Chris's phone number and who they work for. I think it's pretty straightforward...the onus is on the members, all members, reps or not, to stay within the rules of the forum.

    I'd direct anyone with questions to go check out the thread that John started.  Not having just fallen off the turnip truck, I edited AFTER the mini uprising started.  Been around this forum for too long not to recognize when something is gonna go straight to hades in a handbasket if left alone.......
     
    Having done that it was only fair and only consistent that I did the same thing here.
     
    Of course you can post questions here, or there, or where ever.

    I guess I don't understand the issue. The company's name is still in the avatar, in the signature...
    • Gold Top Dog
    nevermind, anyway. Everyone already knows that Chris (or anyone at Timberwolf) will NOT come out and say that their foods are NOT made by/manufactured by Menu. All we get is a "We were not involved in the recall".
