MODERATED: Posted in the wrong forum and removed
We seem to get a good bit of people that will join the community just to complain about a particular vendor they had a bad dealing with. It is sad when this sort of thing happens, and we sympathize with brides and their families. And of course it is good to share experiences and all, but we are not here to bash on vendors. Whether these vendors are advertisers of ours or not, that is not how we want our board portrayed.
So from now on the rule will be that only established trusted members will be permitted to share vendor reviews; good or bad. Such posts will still need only be posted here in the Announcements and Opportunities forum (http://forums.onewed.com/forumdisplay.php?f=9).
New members are restricted from posting in this forum anyway, so new members caught posting such things elsewhere will be seen as a spammer trying to get around our rules. Offending posts will be removed and the member will be subject to removal from the community.
Edit: You can search for vendors and leave a short review on www.OneWed.com (http://www.onewed.com)- Both positive and negative reviews are accepted! Tell future brides who the great vendors were and tell them if you had problems, this is how you can help make a difference.
It is a good idea for new users to familiarize themselves with the rules of the community and/or specific forums before they start posting.
It is also customary for new members to introduce themselves before posting; especially when they want to promote something/share a website, post about a sell or trade or whatever; otherwise you might be mistaken for a spammer.
