I never thought about it as a reduction of competition - more of a courtesy to Helen and Kes not to blatanty advertise other businesses on something they've worked to hard to achieve.

i personally think the link is incredibly kind and generous and  personally cant see a need for it as people usually pm to each other to say what they refer to even though i have never asked myself.

Please note that names of firms/suppliers which are or could be in competition with Fresholi will be automatically (i.e. by software) or manually altered to abbreviations or other less obvious wording.

Please be aware that the automatic action also occurs in Private Messages.

there're abbreviations in other posts that i can't work out, and many are old threads, so a surprise request to clarify i f i pm'd. and not much use if the software does it on pms too!  :buttrf:

If there are abbreviations which are not on the list I mentioned then they are not automatic but ones which the person(s) posting have actually typed in and so anybody reading would have to guess.

Hello walnutgrove.
I have placed something in announcements to explain the reasoning behind it.
I prefer to look at it like Fresholi competitors are granted the courtesy of an acronym with a key, rather than them being reduced to the same.
The key can be found by clicking the all new About button in the top menu when you are logged in.

Obviously the more the discussions centre around raw materials suppliers, the more frustrated folks can get with the abbreviations.

Absolutely! I do seem to have innocently ruffled a few feathers on Fresholi's behalf,  Bad but I just wanted to know what everyone was talking about!

Couldn't resist the bum smaking emocion  :mwaha:

Thanks kestrel!

No problem.
That particular emoticon is the product of the ever-so-slightly ruffled mind of one of the posters here.
