just a reminder to everyone: you're only permitted to say good things about brand name kites on this forum.

no negative comments, no matter how justified, honest or deserved they may be, will be tolerated here.

feel free, however, to blatantly lie & pimp about a brand in the interests of marketing and promotion.

carry on.

Hi!
If you talking about the latest CAB review which disappeared, I ask Lurie the question and the owner deleted the review not the admin guys. After I received the answer I removed mine too.

So maybe not as bad.......

Has a post disappeared from this site I haven’t got the greatest memory but I’m sure there was an interesting one here this morning… maybe it got moved to the gear review section – I’ll go and have a look

Hi Guys,

I’m only new here so if I’m out of line pull me up,. But isn’t this what this forum is for, an honest review by fellow kiters. If I wanted to read only the good, I would read the sponsored magazines or go to the manufactures website, but here I thought we were allowed to be independent??

Of all the **** that spilled on this forum and the honest review of a kite (good review as well) gets pulled.

Sad day when the internet has to be censored :(

It means jack jumped out the box but didn't like the environment so he swiftly went back into his box.

This site has always been infested with brand-whores, pimps and team-goons.

But we knew that already.

If you want honesty, ask a young child something.

The key here is that people should take their problem to the shop they purchased from or the supplier.
If they then feel they need to voice their opinion on a forum, who's stopping them?
Thats what a forum is.
