Hi,

I'm sorry but I can't allow this to stand unanswered.

Also most people who feel they have been given one unfairly do not immediately post about it in the public forums but choose to follow the established and well publicised appeal procedure.

Have you lodged an official complaint or even privately asked for anyone to look into this aside from just posting in the wrong section giving incorrect information? In case you can't remember the answer is no.

The correct place for this discussion is here in the Quarantine room. Anyone who does not have access and wishes it should contact any of the admin staff.

If you had shared the information in the first place in an open manner then there would not have been a neg rep - as stated already the neg rep was not for the information but for the way you went about trying to disseminate it.

You didn't and constantly repeating that you did will never change that fact.

( oh wait i posted my opinion and got a neg rep so i guess that was a load of crap)
Again, no you didn't, it wasn't true the first time you said it and it will still not be true the hundredth time you say it.

It is indeed a terrible thing that the animal didn't make it.

No one has acted against you for saying that under vetinary supervision other treatments may be as effective if not more so under certain circumstances. The only disagreement was how you initially chose to go about it.

Which is why the post was not moderated in any way, shape or form - you got a neg rep which any member can give you if they disagree with something you have said or done.

However,

My main problem with all this is that it is dragging a perfectly innocent thread off topic when we have a stickied thread for precisely this sort of discussion that can be found here (for those who missed the link earlier )

If you feel the need to continue this discussion please use that thread.

For those who feel I may be being heavy handed in this matter please read this page paying particular attention to this paragraph;

This sort of public statement does NOT mean your complaint will recieve any staff attention. If you have a genuine concern about a rep comment you have recieved, you must address it in private with the staff.
