It sure is. It is sad that some people seem to care more about getting blog hits than anything else.
Noticed a flagrant example this morning and it only took a few minutes before Admin pulled it. The correct action.
I think I missed that...do you remember who posted the thread? At any rate it is great the mods pulled it.
No, but I did notice 2 cases today. Both were fairly new FR members. One was removed quickly, I was composing a response when it happened and when I went to post got a response that the thread had been removed. I wrote a Freepmail to the other and explained that although I sympathized with her post that it should not be handled like that here, and why. So far no response from her, but that thread was also removed by Admin. They seem to be on top of this.
