Friendship Through Koi

[lildude]

I think it is time for me to enjoy my hobby privately with only my close friends, these "koi politics" are way to much for me. I have had enough of this tear up attitude some portray on this forum.


Have fun everyone!

Ill keep in touch with all you, my homies!

I think that the difference between a thread that shows mud pond pulls in Japan and talks about the breeders and shows their Koi, is that the breeders themselves are not doing it. My thread on my trip to Japan showcased a lot of different breeders. I am a paid advertiser and these breeders supply my product, and being a paid advertiser on Koi-Bito I can talk about my product and who produces it. Although I do support having Richards thread here, I can see that the difference is that he is talking about his product, whether he is intending to sell them or not, and he is not a paid advertiser. So as difficult as it may be, if Brian and Jim have now determined that it has gone too far, then I think it is only fair. I hope you understand. Russ

You've made your point crystal clear, Russ. Richard is indeed talking about his product. What if I were talking about his product? Would that be ethically unsound because I'm not a paid advertiser like you are?

Is this not a forum for the friendly discussion of Nishkigoi or is it a forum to talk about the advertisers' Nishikigoi? If it is the latter, then there are a lot of posts that should never have been.

So where's the mouth of authority here? We're all talking around one side of the debate--I want to publicly hear directly from the other side of this matter.

Don't you?
