"Feedback Form" in AUP???

[FisherJack]

The AUP contains the following paragraph:

"Public Disagreements with Administration/Staff or Guidelines
You agree that if you have questions about, or concerns with the ifish.net website policy or action of a moderator or admin, you will not post public arguments or disagreements nor attempt to petition the owner/administration to change policy through posts, polls, email, PM or any other service found within the ifish.net Website. If you disagree, you may respectfully post your comments in private in the feedback form."

When I click on the "feeback form" link, I am redirected to the main Discussion Board page. It appears that this is a bad link.

Mods, or anyone else - How do I get to the "feedback form?" Thanks in advance.

It refers to either "contact us" or sending a private message to one of the moderators. The link name should be renamed.

I'll have that fixed, today. Thank you for noticing!

I'm confused. If the term "feedback form" refers to using "contact us" or sending a PM to one of the moderators, why does it state in the AUP that:

" * * * if you have questions about, or concerns with the ifish.net website policy or action of a moderator or admin, you will not post public arguments or disagreements nor attempt to petition the owner/administration to change policy through posts, polls, email, PM or any other service found within the ifish.net Website." [emphasis added]?

Not so quick, Jack.

You are misreading the paragraph. We want your input via PM. In your example, the AUP is referring to using the PM feature to solicit support for policy change among the members or to circulate a petition, it does not refer to constructive PMs to ifish mods or admin.

shall not "...attempt to petition the owner/administration to change policy through posts, polls, email, PM or any other service found within the ifish.net website." .

My emphasis this time.

The reference to PM is part of the list of actions that are forbidden as a means to petition the owner/administration for policy change. In other words, ifish does not want people to get up a private message campaign, flooding the owner with PMs for or against an ifish policy. Does that make more sense?

[Jennie@ifish]

It's much different to report or complain privately, rather than to petition the membership through PMs, Posts, or public means.

The moderators and admins, however, appreciate knowing your concerns. Please use the PM feature or any feature to contact us, privately.

Seems clear to me.
