Why would a video relating a TRUE MLM experience be deleted?

Postby Bobby J. Gallo on Wed Mar 23, 2011 1:57 pm

I'm still waiting to hear from the mods on this one, but I am EXTREMELY disappointed that my most recent video relating a TRUE STORY that I experienced was taken down. It was getting a lot of hits and some very positive feedback from other members. In fact, I was going to heavily promote this page and betternetworker.com in the process starting this week. There was nothing inappropriate in the video. In fact, it was quite entertaining.

I'm an ABN member and my membership is going to be contingent upon whether or not I can post that video. I'm not going to pay money to a site that is going to censor material that can help others make more educated decisions.

If this was a technical mistake I will retract the above statements with apologies.

Hey Bobby! I watched the video in its entirety and understood your point. I think there are startups that do well and there are startups that don't. Obviously you were in a really volatile situation.

As far as why the video was deleted, if the moderators only watched the first 75% of the video, they may have gotten the mistaken impression that you were being anti-MLM and that the video was meant to criticize the industry in some way.

Always good to see you on the Net! :)

Thanks Tony,

Always good to see you as well. I have already received some private messages expressing support. I would prefer they post publicly like you. But I appreciate support in whatever form it takes.

I encourage any who read this to go down to my sig and watch the video... Agree or disagree, I doubt anyone would think that it's worthy of being deleted.

That would be pretty sad.

Interesting....

Watched the video, Bobby...

I think you're giving some good advice, actually....

Perhaps just a mistake or technical error.

Hope it clears up.

Thank you Joyce!

I hope so Jamie!

I really don't want to delete my ABN membership... But it's a matter of principle... I will if I have to. There are no excuses if this turns out to be censorship because of a hidden agenda.

Again... Like you, I hope it's just a technical error.

Bobby, I watched the video and I think it offers value to those that need to know about other people's experiences in MLM. I too am very curious as to why it was deleted.

Can you post it again and see what happens? Kerry

Hi Kerry,

Thank you for your support!

I did hear back from tech support and they are looking into it. So far I have not heard from any mods stating that it was in violation of terms, forum guidelines, etc. So I am going to wait just a bit longer to see what happens.

Thanks again!

I would very much like to follow this thread. BN never gave me that impression and there can be really no reason for them to do that.
