Perhaps Steve could begin by reading the comment made by Tim in response to the above post. It's a perfect example of what I'm talking sbout.
Steve admits there's been historical problems with partner offers. Tim's response to me pointing this out "complete an utter bollox"
Steve admits that the handling of those issues could have been better. Tim's response to me pointing this out "complete and utter bollox"
Steve admits that traffic has reduced, and valuable posters have been lost. Tim's response, "complete and utter bollox"
A complete denial that Steve's post on page one of this thread exist !
On top of that, he claims to have reported my post. Who will deal with that complaint ? Possibly the same member of staff responsible for my last 3 bans, who just happens to be Tim's colleague responsible for provision of content !
You really couldn't make this stuff up. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. You can't allow staff to continually post their rosé tinted perception of reality, and then undermine them with a post apologizing for these problems. You can't allow members of staff to ban whoever disagrees with their perception of reality, and then post that members don't get banned for holding an opinion or criticizing staff. Well you can, and its always been done that way, but that's the reason you are in th mess you are currently in, and each ridiculous post, contradicted by Tim and Paul creates increasingly more damage.
You've banned the bramble, and no doubt my time at t2w will be short lived, but until you grate bull by the horns, and start replacing the staff who are without a shadow of a doubt at the heart of the sites current malaise, things are not going to get much better.
