I must ask a question here - I want to reiterate that I no longer live in the state - but didn't a few people offer some negative feedback about IMHS and then didn't someone else make it a point to say that POS (I'm assuming this means Pinecam) didn't let anyone say anything negative on Pinecam about IMHS?
This seems completely opposite of what Becky has said above. (I'm not sure how to quote)
Ok, think I've got it figured out:

if the admins have an issue with an individual.
A bad business is simply just not mentioned here.
We celebrate great businesses. If you want a mention here......be great!
Times are hard enough without slapping folks around. People are trying to feed their families and pay their mortgage.
I just think that 285bound has always raised the bar and asked everyone to reach up.
I like it that way.
Fair statement normalwhyner.
The difference is that many businesses don't state that they want to be the voice of the community.
You cannot be the voice of the community if you silence a large part of it.
You can't pretend to be the information source for our community when they don't allow certain individuals to even view the information.
I admit that the point of view about Pinecam would appear to be contradiction with my statements but I think that is an over simplification of the situation we have.
Nice try though.
I believe that anyone who has tried to condemn what IMHS has done on Pinecam was made to feel as though they were not part of the positive solution. One individual was actually banned. Others were shamed into silence.
Apples and Oranges normalwhyner.
We emailed PC and asked if this was a new policy or were we being singled out, they did not respond but changed it so we are banned from posting but can now view the site again without the meaningless hoops.
This was a chicken crap move but I believe only a powertriping blowhard did this on his own and the others kicked his butt into being civil, I applaud them for their being rational and as fair as they are able to be . Thanks guys, we will never ban you. But, we can track IP's also, you guys spend more time on here that you do on PC, we are not as dumb as you think we are.
Note to Viking, no names will be disclosed on this site, I sympathize but it will not happen here.
Boycotting Pinecam is not necessary - we just need to make 285Bound the Go-To, Rockin' Place where you can find all the emergency and non-emergency info you need, include all the fun/interesting/perplexing/irritating/thoughtful/funny characters that you'd ever want to chat, argue, or hang out with (or throw tomatoes at! ), and get the best deals from, and insider info on, local businesses!
