More of your usual selective memory. Anyone who asked questions about the cruise was given a polite and full answer...EXCEPT for those whose questions were obviously had a different agenda including antifreepers who only wanted to take a few quotes back to their website to slander and defame the cruise committee and the event.
Do you deny that you were posting on antifreeper boards and criticising the Forum or Forum participants?
No one owes you anything GFTB, so quit acting like they do. Let me give you a clue, anyone who banters on the AF boards and unjustifiably attacks FR and the posters here will be grouped in with them and will basically be ignored or vilified by anyone who's a target of their unjust and nasty attacks.
"It wasn't posted that there was a fundraising aspect to it for several more threads.
So you admit that once this was brought to our attention it was corrected? What was your complaint THEN!
"I thought that FR contributions were supposed to be private. I thought that only BADJOE and those who received the checks were aware of the names of donors. Was I wrong there?
To answer your question, no one has had information about donations other than Joe, Jim, the bookeeper and myself. Why do I have any information? Because Joe and I set up the donation system, paid for the hardware, set up the accounts with the bank and ran the "FREEPSTUFF" program for several years. I have very little to do with it now so I don't get any information and have never asked Joe or Jim for any.
99.9% of FR donors are anomymous because there is no way to tie screen names with those on a credit card. Chuck posts under his real name, that's why Joe knew who he was when he discontinued his donation. Joe contacted me about it because Chuck and I were friends, he had been active and a member of the Forum Advisory Board, which I supervise. Joe didn't give me any information about his donation other than that he had requested it be discontinued. I had his phone number and Joe didn't. To be honest, I don't understand Chuck's issue with this. No confidential information was given out and our concern was about him and any issues he may have had over recent events at that time. I would have done the same for any other FAB member.
