As a moderator on said site, all I can say is it was deleted which isnt something the moderators usually do. We usually move all removed posts to a forum that is only viewable by the moderators and Don. Usually when posts get deleted its done by the original poster or Don. Shoot me a PM on the forum (ePiC) with more details and I will try to find out what happened to the post and why it was removed.Rick Schroederhttp://www.coloradomountainfishing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762457427255939507.post-61232173184715706102011-07-21T09:51:58.662-06:002011-07-21T09:51:58.662-06:00I'm with you on this CP, it's a free site ...I'm with you on this CP, it's a free site why shouldn't people be able to rant, if the store is a well recommended store or not the people whom go to this shop should be able to judge for them selves whether a person got bad service or not.. <br />I have also been in arguments on the coloradofisherman site with there moderators and those discussions were deleted before anyone could post there opinions also.. oh well thats my rant..Orvis4wthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02929750119359422154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762457427255939507.post-68766729999482910262011-07-20T00:30:35.581-06:002011-07-20T00:30:35.581-06:00Was it about Charlie's delightful emporium of ...Was it about Charlie's delightful emporium of aggressively priced baubles perhaps?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762457427255939507.post-33528533101685493632011-07-19T10:27:07.919-06:002011-07-19T10:27:07.919-06:00Troutrageous makes a good point about it being the...Troutrageous makes a good point about it being their private little playground, but I completely agree that most (not all, but many) forum admins go on a power trip once their site gains traction.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07069020314087946991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762457427255939507.post-8243278172035923322011-07-18T21:53:29.605-06:002011-07-18T21:53:29.605-06:00Not reading the post I'm not a fan of "ce...Not reading the post I'm not a fan of "censorship" but I'm sure everyone has their reasons, whether they are evident or not.

As long as I've been fishing, I could have posted a similar gripe about almost every shop in Colorado at one time or another. <br /><br />The first thing I presume is they've got a new employee who has a crap personality or is having a really bad day, so I try not to take it too personally. They'll get one more chance to make it right. Over the years you get a pretty good feel for the really good shops and the average or below shops.<br /><br />As an administrator at the Fiberglass Flyrodders Forum, I do the bidding of a great owner...who doesn't want to get sued for character assassination (libel) or be the cause of someone's business being disparaged and going under. Fly fishermen are a strange breed (Myself included)and many spoil for a forum "fight". Why take the chance? That spoils it for everyone. If the guy's business is so shabby, he'll put himself out of business soon enough.cofisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12288930899340581141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762457427255939507.post-46196497450720166632011-07-18T14:12:04.780-06:002011-07-18T14:12:04.780-06:00I saw the same thread and despite calling out the ...I saw the same thread and despite calling out the shop for the perceived slight/poor service, it didn't seem like it was an attack on the shop, but simply sharing the bad experience. I was a surprised to see the thread removed so quickly.<br /><br />I have had similar experiences at the same shop, as well as some other well known metro Denver shops, and am always a bit chaffed when the "support your local shop" crowd steps up to the soap box. I get that everyone has good/bad days, but is it really that hard to give good service to everyone that walks through the door?Darrinnoreply@blogger.com
