Do TE Owners have the right to choose for their members?

Tonight I received an email from a fellow TE Owner saying that a popular site was being banned because his group of TE Owners thought it to be questionable because of it's name. No one said it was a scam. No one said it did anything horrible. But this TE Owner group decided it should be banned so everyone jumped on the bandwagon.

I just want to say that I believe my members have the right to advertise what they want as long as it does not break the TOS. I also believe my members are adults who are smart enough to decide for themselves what they want to advertise without someone telling them what they can and cannot do.

Am I risking my reputation by taking this stand? No, I do not believe I am since I am letting my members have the freedom to make their own choices. If that risks my reputation then so be it.

I hope everyone thinks twice before banning a site just because other TEs are doing it. This is the 2nd site this week. Will your site be next?

  1. I agree with you 100%. I consider myself a te owner, not a dictator. I do post warnings, alerts, and opinions. But these are my own and do not force anyone else to agree.
