Gus Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 What's the moderators views on responding to questions being asked here, where the answer already exists on the public area of the "other channel". Do you approve of a link to the relevant post on the OC site ? Gus
Guest prescience Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 The problem is that it would be a one-way street; references to this site have up until now been removed sharpish from the other channel But if you know the answer (wherever obtained from e.g. the US), why not post just the information to help out
Chesterfield Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 As Dorian states above this would require reciprocation from the OC. Are people allowed to post links to this site in the free areas of the OC? If this is allowed, then I see no reason why we cannot follow suit here.
350Znismo Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Gus, Ask the question in both forums, you have our answer
Removed Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 agreed. as long as we are allowed to do the same, why not... mind you I'm not even allowed to post or Pm there...
steve_b Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Gus, Word of warning. Recently, someone asked a question on here. I then asked for answers on the other side in an aid to help someone out and got a whole lot of grief over it, had name calling and since I have chosen not to currently post over there. I will not until I get an apology, as currently even being a paid up member I have asked 2 committee members a direct question about redress they will not answer. If I post here feel free to copy any info I have to help out people over there or even on a Seat/Audi site I do not care as long as it is to help other out. Regards Steve
steve_b Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Yeah bitter taste left over, but do not want to bring it over here so enough said. Steve
Chesterfield Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Yes I agree. Until we hear that the OC would reciprocate by allowing links to this site, I think we draw a line under this one...
Gus Posted January 31, 2006 Author Posted January 31, 2006 OK, doesn't look like it will be happenning, so cut and paste......... Gus ps Thanks for unlocking this Val, can now be re-locked.
Chesterfield Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Sorry Gus, I should have asked before locking. If the situation changes on the OC we can re-visit this. Locking as per Gus's request.
