Gaspez banned - rescinded
Posted: Wed Dec 15, 2010 1:33 pm
Gaspez Commercial Announcements and Promotion Banned.
TFF is meant to be a community, and as such, we should all be working towards the betterment of this genre. The community needs to pull together.
One company has decided not to do that, has publicly smeared another company with damaging allegations of criminal activity, refused to provide any evidence to justify their claim, and managed to embroil a third company in the event.
Despite attempts by non-involved parties to get details, said company has still refused to divulge details.
Due to this, we, the undersigned moderators and admins on TFF, have decided that said company and their products can no longer be promoted on this forum, until such time as they either provide sufficient evidence to the Moderators to back their claim, or they publicly admit they had insufficient evidence, and apologise.
All threads and/or posts that contain obvious promotion of said companies products will be moved from the main forum (however, they will not be deleted, and will be reinstated should the above happen). Persistent posting in breach of this rule will lead to warnings/bans.
(Note: this does not extend to posts of Gaspez figures painted by individuals from within the TFF community; provided that they are not directly promotional. Nor does it extend to responding to a post where someone asks "What figure do you recommend I use for X?" or discussion of the company in general terms. We reserve the right to exercise judgement in this matter and may edit rather than move posts that are considered borderline.)
We respectfully request your co-operation regarding this matter, and hope you understand why we (unfortunately) felt obliged to come to this decision.
