What did you expect?
Would you like someone to come inside of your business and tell the public that they can get better/cheaper elsewhere?
No, you would turf them out on their ear, and claim you had every right to do so.
I've been dissapointed at the lack of forum etiquette shown by a few ex backroomers in the last few months.
I've watched the surrepticious posts made on HJ asking for people to make contact via email and I absolutely dissaprove of this practice.
The internet is a big enough place for both forums to exist and if any party is that unhappy about the one they are using, they have the world at their finger tips to look for an alternative.
I read the backroom every morning, I don't read it and gloat but more with sadness that it's struggling. I would like to see it get back to where it was.
I rarely post, as I'm more comfortable here, and I do firmly believe that this forum is far and away better and will succeed as a major player in the future, in it's present form.
I also know where my loyalty lies, but I have a personal code of practice that I try and live my life by, and 'touting against forum rules' falls way outside of it.
I would like to think that it's something the management here don't approve of either.
