HEADS UP MSers

Hey all -

MSAdmins are onto this site - Any reference to “Skiff HQ” over there - even in private conversations - is automatically changing to “Microskiff.com” - Go back and check any PMs you sent to folks.

See my post over there. Sneaky bastards.

Feel free to test this out for yourselves . . . . maybe even start a new thread, or reply to mine.

Not trying to steal folks over or promote this thread against MS community rules, just demonstrating to current MS members that what they type may not be what other people see.

I’m posting this here too…

Again we’ve said it multiple times, their terms of use are clear. If you promote any outbound link they deem unacceptable it can and will be removed. Conduct yourself with this knowledge. We recommend direct communications. It’s their sandbox, respect it as such.

I have simply been messaging folks with my email and phone number. I leave it at that and that alone. I text/email those I have contact info for but no mention on the other site even in messaging!

Absolutely @iMacattack - totally get it:

You all have made it clear - and I understand and agree - that the moderators, owners, and governors of Skiff HQ not only do not support violation of other websites user agreements, but that that you have and will condemn it. As you should.

I asked to have all my content removed.

This place will be like the best small steakhouse or underrated whiskey, eventually people with any class and taste will find it :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I’m seriously thinking about going to the other website and deleting all my contributions…although probably not too many. After all i consider myself the owner of the content.

I just went over there to see if they scrubbed all my content as I had so “politely” asked. Nope, they just deleted my avatar and changed my handle to a number. :enraged_face:

they pulled my ticket without notice, and no reply.
I told them weeks ago they were well on their way ruining the platform. so be it.

They cooked my account. That’s their prerogative. I wish the members who will continue to use that form all the best. When or if they want to try something different we’re here to welcome them.

Till then much like a bad relationship the image of microskiff simply grows smaller in my rear view mirror.

I choose to focus on the positives and the people I’ve met.

A new chapter is ahead of us and I’m glad to be surrounded by some awesome friends.

Thank everyone!

So what’s the story here ?

This has happened on a few other forums I frequent lately also. With similar new venues appearing and subsequent defections.
It’s kind of weird that it’s happened on some other forums too.

What’s the deal?

What’s the policy on copying one of my posts and pasting it here?

Can I ask MS to add the eggplant emoji so I can gracefully exit?

I just went to a different bot forum with the same owner and it would appear that the edit function still exists on other bot forum owned forums but the forum dealing with small boats is taking a more hardline approach.
