ManWay Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hello All, i know that apparently I have upset some people with my recent comments on 'The Forum'. Apologies for this if anyone is hurt by my opinions. I only thought that debate/opinion was what a 'forum' was about. Forgive my ignorance if you will? In the meantime, ponder upon the response from Alamy to my apparent 'aggression'. God bless ya all! Compose New Delete Forum conduct Alamy Administrator Administrators 313 posts Sent 7 hours ago Hi Richard,We've been monitoring your posts on the forum and we feel that the general tone of many of your recent posts is far too aggressive. We've also had a complaint about a recent post of yours in the thanksgiving thread.You were banned from the previous version of the Alamy forum for similar reasons and we would not like to have to undertake this course of action again so please take this as your final warning.RegardsAlamy Reply Report ManWay Forum newbie Members 74 posts Reputation: 31 LocationParis France Images:5333 Sent 6 hours ago Hello Alamy, Sorry that you take this opinion of my comment(s) on your forum. I find the promotion of Nationalistic sentiment on a thread entitled 'Let's talk about pics' grossly offensive. I don't see that my comment was particularly aggressive and in any case was supported by more than several people posting. If the forum is to have any meaningful use then debate must be allowed. Regards Richard Wayman www.richardwayman.com Reply Report Edit Delete Alamy Administrator Administrators 313 posts Sent 5 hours ago Debate is fine, but there is a better way to present it. The tone of your response in this keywording thread is also not appropriate: http://discussion.al...ess/#entry55023 There is nothing further to discuss.

Craig Yates Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Having pondered for a short time, the responses from Alamy seem fair and to the point. Maybe you should reflect on them instead of publishing them here. Regards Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted the conversation (or some of it) in the interests of freedom of speech. I totally understand that I have made comments on 'The Forum' which have been deemed 'inappropriate' and I accept that.

mickfly Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 "I don't see that my comment was particularly aggressive and in any case was supported by more than several people posting." I've just read the thread and I didn't see any supporting you, just a bit of sarcastic humouring by several people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManWay Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Thanks 'mickfly' for your opinion. Great thing is that you were allowed to make it! One thing though......... i thought that we were supposed to identify ourselves on 'the forum' I accept, and have apologised for, having been 'unacceptable' in some of my comments. We not all perfect. Ho hum.......life goes on. Good luck to ya Richard www.richardwayman.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also not sure why you felt the need to post the conversation here at all. Everything we said still stands. Alamy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
