Hi - I'm not sure of the official rules on this and don't want to get in trouble or have my review pulled or anything or get thrown off the boards.
I have a bad grade and not such positive things to say about a LIW Vendor. Nothing mean - just stating why we didn't like him and why the poor grade. Just not sure if this will get me in trouble.....can anyone tell me the rules.
I guess I could always say to FM me for details but quite frankly I'd rather put it out there so people know what went wrong.
Thanks!

You should be fine if you just stick to the facts and simply mention what went on...
Well I did this about a VERY popular DOC that I had to fire and for some reason LIW pulled my posts... everytime I post something regarding my experiece with this paticular vendor- LIW takes it down.
VERY INTERESTING!!!
I am begining to think that this vendor's 'reputation' is being protected by LIW- even though she is starting to get bad reviews and is NOT who she portrays herself to be..
The vendor review board IMO almost seems pointless if you can't state your factual experience with a vendor. I guess I got the okie doke from the vendor review board from all the good reviews on this vendor- If we could only state the not so good reviews- I would not have gone through what I went through with her.
I am sure this will get pulled too....
Still waiting for an issue I had to be addressed by LIW.......

it sort of annoys me because a review is only honest and more importantly HELPFUL if you're allowed to voice the good and the bad. otherwise, what's the point of reading a review that's not necessarily reflective of how certain vendors performed?
you seldom see 'bad reviews'

hi there!!!
I just wrote somewhat diplomatically that we had 'some issues' and I've received about a dozen FMs from people wanting more details. I felt I could be much more candid over FM than in a posting.
Can't wait to read your review, even though I know it was fab
You should be fine if you just stick to the facts and simply mention what went on...
Also, just be careful with FM.
I got burned BIG time by a girl on this site who pretended to be friendly towards me, through FM, to get me to explain my 'bad experience' with a vendor. Once I did that (even though I did it in a completely professional, mature and factual manner) she went to the vendor and TOLD him what I said!! He called Ron, threatened to sue and Ron contacted me to let me know basically not to talk about that vendor anymore or he would sue... So, you can still talk through FM a little I guess- just make sure you KNOW who you are talking to. What this girl did made me sick and it was completely under-handed!
She should be ashamed of herself b/c I did nothing wrong and I was screwed by a vendor, kept the facts straight, didn't get emotions involved and she set me up- went behind my back and did that! Shame on you (and you know who you are!)...
I told Vinny- God help that girl if I run into her at the supermarket or something JK
But- you should be fine, just be careful-- oh and so sorry about the bad experience with the vendor- that stinks!!
hmmmmm I had this happen to me, I wonder if it was the same person

I've seen a good deal of negative reviews on this board..I don't think that you're not allowed to say negative things..but like others have stated, stay away from opinion and stick to facts.

Haah--I think I told you we were a bit disappointed too....sorry to hear it though!!! Bad recommendation on my part.
Oh no - not your fault. You had no idea! He basically did the same to us that he did to you...but since we also had another officiant...it was overkill. It was like he was trying to compete with the other one. He also read straight from his papers...just seemed very unprepared - he was awful. I'll FM you about the thing that upset me the most b/c it's funny - I think you had an issue with this too.
