What I'm talking about Martin is those who come on the list, send a note that

is derogatory about another list members product or pricing at the same time

they're promoting someone elses. That's bad manners.

 

I'm am not talking about a crap company that promotes crap products by

directly lying to their customers and everyone else.

 

I AM vocal about YL and I will continue to be vocal about them and Gary

Young, however I will NOT come on the list and say (For example) Chris sells

really

crappy Woobeys, their prices are too high, the stuffing she uses is just

cheap garbage, but (again for example) Butch sells really GOOD Woobeys, with

nice

filling at a good price.

 

THAT is extraordinarly bad manners and NOT the same thing as saying that YL

is Crap, GY is a lying con man who promotes mediocre to crap products at

ridiculously high prices and promotes dangerous practices.

 

My example of the Woobeys is Opinion, my example of YL and ex-con Young are

fact. There is a very big difference.

When are people going to realize that these kinds of group rules are

ideal for con artists to come onto lists and spam and indoctrinate

people with their crap. Oh it would be lovely to live in a nice

world where everyone was nice, but in aromatherapy that is a

ridiculous concept. This is ripe coming from you Kathleen as you

have been very vocal in your opposition to the mind manipulating

methods used by Young Living. So do those of us who know the con

artists keep quite and let them suck in another heap of customers?

see how their posts work out.

That's fine Kathleen, but the rule was worded in such a way as to

make myself (and no doubt new comers) think it was meant to inhibit

all criticism. You know as well as I do that several newsgroups do

have such ridiculous rules to pander to those people who like living

in a fairy tale land where everyone is nice to each other. All

those rules do is give free reign to the quacks and con artists

because they do not have to fear being challenged hard.

 

I think its about time we had a newsgroup that is not the private

domain of any individual and does not have rules that inhibit frank

and heated discussion. There are now so many AT related newsgroups

the situation is getting ridiculous. Some people use them purely as

marketing tools. Others do not allow anyone to post something which

is against the newsgroup owner or their products. There is as the

result no real freedom of expression in these groups. I should add

here that this group is the best out there in that respect and great

on Christine for keeping it going.
