RMGH Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Can someone please explain to me why the moderator(s) do not like people speaking about crime in Mexico or specifically Lakeside? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Menudo Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 It is not the moderators. The board is owned by coldwell banker a real estate company and crime is not good for business. Not bitching here, just stating a fact that most all are aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 There used to be some RULES posted as sticky topics, but I can't find them anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Menudo Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 It is still there..... crime reporting is not allowed on this board there was a website or something where you could report crime but I think it disappeared a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 I think this is bit harsh on Coldwell Banker - if I remember correctly the problem was a lot of innuendo and half truths get flung around. Revisit the pet section on the "Dog Poisoner" thread to see what the problem was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 I remember a long time ago a small crime that affected a few people got exaggerated to the point that potential visitors to the area might be scared away. It and other small instances would get so exaggerated that it was decided that no crimes could be posted on this board. I too remember that there was some place we could go to make crime comments, but I just don't remember where. All I know is that TOB has a section on crime and a section on US politics. The only one that gets a lot of action is the one where they discuss or argue the good and the bad of the US president. And that gets very ugly. The vast majority are attacks on the President Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you are correct however, if it could be discussed anywhere, within a reasonable climate, this is the place it should be. I feel sure the mods would keep it in line.

el bartman Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Too often people speculate a crime has been committed, how it was committed, exaggerate, label it as something more heinous than it is. There is a lot of misinformation that should never appear in print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
