I was emailed this link around 2 hours ago. Since this post seems to be in part directed at me, I figure it's ok with you if I respond? Steve, you were never banned from our site. I had no idea that you ever even joined our message boards, nor do I know what your IP is. You appear to be taking personal offense for a perceived insult that truly does not exist. A couple of months ago, we pruned our membership. The members pruned were those who had never purchased anything from us AND had not logged in for over a year. Both had to apply, because we are fully aware that people may peruse for a while before they buy; read reviews etc., which is all totally fine. But if they hadn't logged in for over a year, and never made a purchase - their memberships were simply deleted - we figured those people had just lost interest. NONE OF THEM WERE BANNED. Any of them could have simply rejoined or contacted us to reinstate their membership. We have ever only banned ONE member, and if you would like more information on that matter, I will happily share it with you. You are welcome to call me at our business number posted on our website. I will clear up any questions you may have - and I'm sure you have many. Quite simply, we are not participating in any "war". That's a buncha hooey. And say hello to Mark in Dallas for me. I think he's a pretty nifty dude, too. Kindest Regards, Mara LovePotionPerfume.com Hello Steve,
