Shoemoney: abuse: moderator power at Digital Point!

affiliatebestprograms.com — When a respected poster (Bryce) questioned the way Google doled out Pagerank penalties and pointed out that Shoemoney's blog was PR6 whereas John Chow's blog with the same type of links is a PR3, the argument turned childish and then Shoemoney used moderator power to ban Bryce and lock the thread.

These actions by Shoemoney reek of personal bias and temper tantrum.

    Digital Point should consider their choice of moderators more carefully, as bad moderation can destroy even the best of forums.
