The "Alert Moderator" link or button should be on ALL replies. If is not then I may have an error that I need to fix. It is not connected to the user. When I view the pages it shows up on all replies.
When someone clicks the "Alert Moderator" link it sends a link to that reply to the moderators so that they know where to look. In others words when you click the "Alert Moderator" link you are reporting that reply to the moderators not the one above or the one below. For example if you wanted to report the last post made ALANJ you would click the “Alert” link in that block.
Replies are no longer sent to a queue for reviewing. You are posting in real time.

From my observations, I only see the "Alert Moderator" button on my own posts, the same as I only see the "edit reply" button on my own posts.
Regarding your note that we are posting in real time, with the posts no longer sent to a quene for review; does that mean that moderator review of posts - before they are seen by all - to the coverage forum has been abolished? |

The 'Moderator Alert' only shows up on my screen for the posts I have made. For instance, it does no show alongside of Clayton or Alan's recent posts.
I applaud the changes which you have made this week Roy, and already there is a new spirit of cooperation and dignity on the CADO Forums.
I would respectfully request however either Moderator and/or Author review on the coverage section of the Forum to prevent the past habits of seeing responses move off topic and into tangential waters.
Thanks for the changes and for listening to your audience. |

Ok, I did find a problem with my code logic. Instead of looking just at the reply ID it was looking at the author ID and showing the alert link only when the author was logged in. I have made the correction and it now appears on all replies. I changed the "Alert Moderator" to this icon >  . When anyone sees a reply that they feel needs to be reviewed by the moderators just click the icon to send a message to all moderators. |

| Aahh....I seem to be missing a previous post. Has anyone seen it? It may have slid down in the cushions of the couch. Who wants to explain to me how THAT post offended someone? Please respond with no fear of starting an arguement. I am just trying to understand this new system of doing things. Thanks for your help. CD |

Censorship at its finest I suppose. Some people are offended with different points of view so you have to be kinder and gentler when you express yourself. Peace and love for everyone, isn't that a warm feeling.
Whatever!!!!!!!!! |

Mike, part of what you said in your post, is so true.
To be kinder and gentler, and think peace and love for everyone - is a warm and good feeling.
That, I think, is part of the critical ingredient to achieve Don's great byline, "To be held in the heart of a friend is to be a King." |

Since I've been on the road and unable to properly respond until now...........please be advised.....
This note is related to Topic Removal where as a Topic "Jewellers Block Coverage (Lets try 1 last time)" was locked based on petty allegations of violations within CADO & Copyright Laws......As the Topic is Jewellers Block and considering that some Adjusters may not have knowledge of the Topic, the history and specifics certainly justify itself as interest and as a legitimate entry for the Forum in discussion.....If individuals creating such Topics are not positive and constuctive in nature......than as a Forum observer it appears there is a negative and vindictive tone in the creator of the Topic. It is unfortunate that these allegations have caused an unnecessary burden for CADO administration. Although it is difficult to legitamize verbal permission (which was obtained) on the use of an Authors comments......allow me to provide the Forum of written permission from CJB Insurance Services, President Meredith Thomas on use of information provided on the WebSite....
"Dear Craig:
This is to confirm that I have no objection to the use of information from our website in oral presentations. In the case of any written material, an acknowledgement of us as the source will be appreciated.
Regards
Meredith Thomas
President"
......Since the Topic was locked based on petty allegations, this note is listed within this Topic to request posting under the Locked Topic "Jewelers Block Coverage(lets try 1 last time)". |

I have been informed before of copyright laws and I considered it a good wakeup, not a petty allegation. I knew better, just wasn't thinking.
I agree with you that the Jewellers Block was a good subject, in fact I find all Inland Marine a good subject because it has a lot of history.

Mr. Anduss, I feel it is necessary to respond to your 2/10 21.38 rebuttal post.
The original post you refer to, that you made in the JB thread, I did not know at that time that it was a copyright infringement. I did though quickly conclude that it was copied from something, as its style and sentences; were in total contrast to your own somewhat difficult to follow posts.
To then have it determined that it was a verbatim copy of published material, without a single reference to the source or comment along the lines of the following - "I found this article ....", or "here is something from a useful text ....", or "here is some information I found ....", or "the foundation of my post is based on ...."; is not right, and should not be shrugged off with the off hand rebuttal by you in twice saying "based on petty allegations".
Simply to state that, ".... information obtained from Merideth Thomas", gives me no comfort in who, what, or where the published source is; it could have been - at that time - a lovely person you met at a winery out west, that you shared your concern with about the JB thread, and Merideth gave you her/his "information".
The written permission that you quote, bears no date, but it appears from its language, to have been obtained after the fact; as opposed to prior to you posting the copied material.
This whole issue could have been avoided in several ways, however the main one would have been, in doing as Mr. Thomas said; ".... an acknowledgement of us as a source will be appreciated". |

Did anyone ever prove the posting was a copyright infringement? Maybe he had permission before he posted it. Did he need permission? The material was obtained from a public domain, (the internet). Was the material copyrighed to begin with?
Did anyone address the above? Did I miss something? |

| CCar....The acknowledgement of the source, Meredith Thomas was stated at the begining of the note......and the verbal/written permission is just to point out that the Author had no problems referencing the material used but that the Topics Author, rather than be productive, threw a fit to include personal innuedoes that you also continue to do.....Maybe you should start a Topic of How to write posts or better yet start your own website.... |

Easy Craig, I have not thrown a fit nor was there any intent at personal innuendo. I was just giving my thoughts on your rebuttal that seemed centered on your concern of "petty allegations".
I see no indirect reference to anything insulting or rude in my last post. But, as we all know and have learned; that at times is in the eye of the beholder. If such is the case, I do apologize.
Please big fella, learn to spell my name correctly. |
