[Purist]

Hello Fallanden.ch
Thread was locked as it started to get out of hand.
"You are correct in saying the PuristS should not be a police force, so
why police the posts, when in fact only reasonable discussion was
taking place."
DJE's comments are about a police force(as in Law Enforcement) vs the action of policing. As moderators of the Forum we do police the forums to make sure that the posts, responses, and forum members are abiding by the guidelines that are established.
"Also, members are here because they love watches, and are on a
particular forum because they love that brand. I think it is outright
silly to say that all posts must talk about how great a brand is or how
wonderful your new watch is. People are interested in all aspects of
owners experiences, both good and dissapointing."
"You seem to be saying that everyone must only sing praise, or they are in some kind of violation of PuristS rules. "
Where is it mentioned that only posts that sing praise are allowed? If you don't like a watch due to color, shape, etc.. fine. But when the tone of the post gets personal, becomes a bit@hing session, or when statements are not true or misleading, they can be acted upon by the moderator's discretion.
"So, no more discussion about the new PP seal, only praise it as a
wonderful idea. No more stories both good and bad about your watches?"
Huh? The post about the Geneva/PP Seal had both good and bad opinions.
"This, it outside the spirit of a forum! A forum should allow collectors
to share their thoughts and have others learn from them, and/or respond
with their own comments."
Yes, you may respond with you own comments as long as they follow the guidelines.
"There was also a mention of how having a better database of stolen
watches would help companies fight against the grey market. I noticed
Audemars Piguet talks about this very subject on their web site."
We are not the AP web site.
PM me if you have any further questions.

I'm getting tired of these posts whining about the brands inadequacies!
