: I have to agree with the others, you are treading dangerous ground.

you're still assuming this is a hate list - it isn't
but to look at the worst case...
the forums don't work on a couple of levels - because
they are public - any/everyone sees the complaint.
and we are, afterall, guilty untill proven innocent.

now - if the complaint is not valid - there is a good deal more
damage done posting it on a public form.

and even if the complain IS valid (and yes kids, some actually are) - the model's ability to get net based assignments will suffer - becasue "who wants to work with a name caller, whistle blower" or what ever.

no one seems to concerned about http://www.hallphoto.com/photoforum/ - nice place for photographers to gather, chat and exchange information.

but if you don't think that models should be able to do the same - say so. If you think they should, but MY suggestion is a bad one - offer an alternative.

I'm easy (to a point :-)

thanks
Bill
