Siemes, again you �re guessing and this does not help in any way to solve the problem, I �m sorry. No one has said that copied material should stay. These were victor �s words in his first post: "Of course, those worksheets have to be removed". "He" says? Who �s He? Victor, the man who created this site and made it possible for us to be here right now? Please, rudeness is not the way to help in this situation either. |

Sorry Mena, but the truth always hurts and must be told and I am not being rude just expressing what I think about this subject besides I really know that my humble opinion never will count here for anyone, but I do my part and together others I claim for justice for everybody and not just for 1 or 2. No one should get special treatment here or anywhere, why nowadays in this modern world we live in we fight a lot to our students understand and have some respect to the differences but treat others equal? Why some receive special treatment and others are left behind? Is it fair?

No Siemes, no one is saying that it is fair. But it is also not fair to put words in other people �s mouths. No one said that copied material should stay. Again, victor �s words were, and I quote, ""Of course, those worksheets have to be removed". |

I am with Zalida. I have lost faith in the abuse page. I tried very hard even though I �m not good at investigating where a ws came from. What did I get for my efforts? Nothing. Victor refused to even acknowledge my pms and I was working for free for him because I believed in this site. I don �t know what to think, except that points do not mean anything. Am I angry? Yes. Am I disappointed? Yes. I �ll stay for a little while to see if a new and improved Phoenix rises from the ashes of today.

Some members say that Victor does whatever he wants, but he himself said he doesn �t want copied wss here. But what happened - some moderators voted against the removal of 4 worksheets, and that was the reason I had to report 9 at one time. How come some members with more than 1.000 points and perfectly aware of the site rules, with the duty of cleaning the site according to the rules, ignore the links proving they were copies and vote them to stay?
What lame excuse can justify that some moderators took the rules in hands and did whatever they wanted? How come they tell us that "we must respect Victor �s rules and remain silent"? If they were the first who blatantly disrespected his rules moved by personal reasons? Why do they tell us that we have to agree if they pretend to agree and later disrespect the site owner �s rules?
How can we have a site for professionals and respected by the members if the moderators who rush in Victor �s defense (which he doesn �t need and as far as I know didn �t ask for either) telling us to shut up and if we don �t agree we have to leave?
How come the double-faced members accuse us for unfairly reporting perfect copies? How come they miss the friendship and fairness at this site if they are the first to attack without proofs and to ignore the rules? How come they tell us we are destroying the site �s atmosphere if they are so unfriendly?
How come they ask us to listen to them if they don �t listen to us and distort our words telling this is a case against Mar?

Zailda, I sent you a pm but it seems you won �t reply
Why don �t you, I, everybody get over it?
You keep on talking and talking and talking...
I am still waiting for the answer you said you �d give me after you read Victor �s response, he alredy did! he already said how things work and it seems you keep on questioning his decision.
Well, I am no longer interested in that but I do feel interested in knowing who are those guys you are refering to? the rude ones, the ones who isnult? I am sure I am one of them according to you and I ask for the proofs...
Hope now you do reply my quesetion and do not reply again with something different
And now that you refer to the new contribution of MAr which is reported well... please read this and I am sooo sure you agree
Victor �s words:
Old worksheets must only be reported if they are copied, not if they are repeated |

Please let Zalida rest. We �re all very sad and disillusioned.
