Unbelievable Best Censorship

[BigR]

Best obviously believes in and practices in CENSORSHIP.

Thats alright, it is their forum after all. If they want to wipe out any posts that they seem to think not to be in their own interests, they can do that.

This is not a free country or forum anyways to say what you like.

Just remember that you won't be able to read everyones opinions just the ones that they want you to see

( this is on the Best Forum )

BigR is 100% on the money.

He posted regarding that in the BEST newsletter they were misleading that Shannon Best won "Best Trick"... the article did clear it up and even Shannon piped in and gave props to Billy Parker for his victory in that category.

(Shannon won "Best trick over the finish line marker")

The rest of the conversation was basically regarding Billy and how great of rider he was .. even Stacey (Team rider for BEST) wrote in that Billy was, in fact, "The Man"...

Then someone on the forum killed the thread.

couple things..

1. its their forum.. they can do as they please..
2. i would guess that the title of the forum post was the #1 reason they killed it .. i think BigR labeled it as "BEST Lies!!!" or something.. probably rubbed someone the wrong way... :)

either way.. the thread headed in a positive direction even though BEST was a bit misleading in the wording of its press release..

Big thanks to BigR for bringing it to the surface, if even for a bit...

next time use Kiteforum.. gets the word out faster and wider...
plus most everyone there hates BEST already..
:twisted:


***what can i say though.. I only have BEST kites... :roll: ****

[toby wilson]

That's why I DON'T buy their stuff. I think they have some nice kites, but integrity of the company and keeping it real hold a lot of importance with me, probably because my last boss used 0% integrity when trying to find reasons why I was let go...3 years if his crap, at least it's over...

[BigR]

Un Real, I'm not a Best hater or basher.
They make great products in fact.

I was just tryin' to have the truth revealed and have them admit they tried to mislead people that Billy actually was the winner not Shannon.

What do I uncover? they deleted 100% of my posts! :twisted:

Not only do I find their deciet but also rampant censorship! :x

what? are they afraid of the thruth? let us speak without bieng gagged :cry:

[tomstock]

They can't censor this though:

I think I saw the same thing last summer Tom.

Not the simulated version, but the real thing with you on one end and a big red angry kite on the other.

What a relief you are still able to tell the story.

Your dues are all paid up for a loooong time Bro.

[JoshTaylor]

I thought he was on the 21?he didn't even own the 21 back then

he was on his 18 i'm pretty sure.

[toby wilson]

Yeah, I'll confirm it was red. I got the pleasure of landing it once some guys freed it from the mangroves...
