I've let the Reliv thread continue because Karen is a long-time member of the board, and she seems to have had genuinely good results from this product. I'm never really comfortable with threads like this but I also don't like to delete posts unless they really cross the line.
I'd like to know if people would like to see the Reliv thread continue, if they'd like the thread to remain on the board but be locked so new posts can't be added, or if they'd like to see threads like this deleted completely.
In the end, my goal is to try and monitor the boards in a way that makes the board members happy - these are really YOUR boards, and I'd like them to be as open as possible, without allowing spam, or hostile posts, etc. This is not always an easy balance to strike, and I guess I tend to lean towards allowing posts to remain instead of deleting them whenever I feel caught in the middle.
