Title: Buddy list: Attention: Admin / Kohler
Post by: mc1962 on September 14, 2010, 07:44:42 am
Please bring back the Buddy list as it really helps those of us that FOLLOW THE RULES. It provides a quick reference to our people that we have referred so we can see if there has been any earnings or activity with them.

I think it is a breach of the rules here to see people try to email each other or circumvent the policy here and it is this simple: that if you break the rules here then you should risk a "spankin" soley.


The buddy list is a tool that I personally use daily and am asking the admin kindly to bring it back.  :notworthy:

Thanks for listening.

I can see how it would be useful to you, and it's a shame it's no longer available.  But, I can also see why the Admin removed it, as it created a loophole in the forum rules and allowed spammers and those who didn't care about the rules to contact members outside the forum, and do what the staff doesn't want them doing.  My guess is the Admin was unaware of this all along, or it would have been removed at the same time they took away the private messaging. :dontknow:

It's a shame that a few bad apples always ruin things for those who care to follow the rules. :angry7:

Oh wow - that sucks.  Thanks for bringing this to light.  I used the Buddy List to follow some of my favorite peoples' posts.   :'(

I would like to see the polls come back as well. New members messed it up for us.  :'(

Not nice to point fingers.

Yes they were wrong doing what they did every one messes up and then messes things up for others but pointing fingers is not the way to go about changing things.

Personally I never used the Buddy List so not sure if it was a good thing or bad thing.

I didn't know it was gone until I saw this. It must have been recently removed? I never used it to e-mail anyone, but I used it the same way you did, queen. That bites. :(

I wasn't pointing fingers, that was the explanation I was given to why they did away with polls...because new members were confused.

This is not pointing fingers?

You never said

...because new members were confused.

In your original post. If you had said it this way the first time it would not sound like so much of an accusation.

Drop it, both of you.  It was an insignificant comment, made in passing, and is not worth a multi-post argument.  Sheesh!
