Natasha:Cozumelinsider was invited by me, to participate in scuba board. She is an avid diver and has plenty of knowledge that can help divers on our board.
Her offer was very generous.
I'm not sure ggunn, what your beef is, but that was not a very friendly thing to say.
Sherry has just as much right to be here and post, as anyone else, and is not violating any of our TOS. I hope you will apologize to her.
OK, I have reread what I posted with "fresh eyes", and I can see how I may well have come across as harsher than I intended. I still think that her avatar (which, I have been informed, is within the rules) breaks the spirit if not the letter of the advertising ban; if everyone put up an avatar that said "buy my stuff" then this forum would read like the yellow pages. But as I pointed out to the admin who responded to me, it is your board, not mine, and the rules are yours to make and interpret.
FWIW, I never challenged her right to be here and post.
So, I apologize, Sherry, if I offended you with my demeanor; such was not my intention. Attribute it to early morning grumpiness.
