Non Censorship Pledge

[volsfan 43]

Short,

 

If you don't want to be a member of the Secrets forum (this could only be about them) then just go make a couple of posts negative to their guesthouse and you will be banned post haste.

 

Most people realize that there are bars in Pattaya that prey on newbies and while it may be a noble cause, you just can't save them all!

Other than the lack of an elevator, I can't think of anything bad to say about Secrets Hotel. For a new hotel in the middle of walking street I think the price is spot on.

 

 

I started this thread to try to reduce censorship in all realms. OK, here is another example from the BBC. I just want to see businesses make a commitment to not participate in unwarranted censorship.

 

 

 

Man's 'pants' password is changed

 

 

A man who chose "Lloyds is pants" as his telephone banking password said he found it had been changed by a member of staff to "no it's not".

 

Steve Jetley, from Shrewsbury, said he chose the password after falling out with Lloyds TSB over insurance that came free with an account.

 

He said he was then banned from changing it back or to another password of "Barclays is better".

 

Mr Jetley said he first realised his security password had been changed when a call centre staff member told him his code word did not match with the one on the computer.

 

"I thought it was actually quite a funny response," he said. I tried 'Barclays is better' and that didn't go down too well either

 

 

"But what really incensed me was when I was told I could not change it back to 'Lloyds is pants' because they said it was not appropriate.

 

"I asked if it was 'pants' they didn't like, and would 'Lloyds is rubbish' do? But they didn't think so.

 

"So I tried 'Barclays is better' and that didn't go down too well either.

 

"The rules seemed to change, and they told me it had to be one word, so I tried 'censorship', but they didn't like that, and then said it had to be no more than six letters long."

I have been from the very beginning, so you can count me still in!

It's ok to be confused. If you don't participate in unwarranted censorship then yes you would be confused.

 

 

While I'm at it I want to complement Pete for his actions. When he spotted a problem at his business he immediatly announced it to the world (pizza) and announced a plan to fix it instead of trying to supress the news.

 

Personally I don't think any one restaurant can produce food that will appeal to every single person but you have to admire Pete for trying and being up front with the results.
