I made a post today on the free films board re: "I'm so excited", which included a credit to the person who originally found the code on moneysavingsexpert.com.
That credit has been deleted from my post. I personally think that crediting correctly is the polite thing to do, so am at a loss as to why my post was edited.
I'm sure that if I have broken a rule, someone will kindly enlighten me.

Interesting point Newdot. I occasionally look on Money Saving Expert and have seen credits to FMUK members for codes.newdot wrote:I made a post today on the free films board re: "I'm so excited", which included a credit to the person who originally found the code on moneysavingsexpert.com.

Re: Editing of posts
If you think one of your posts has been unfairly edited, I suggest you send a private message to the Admins asking them rather than making new threads such as this!

Re: Editing of posts
It has nothing to do with Freedom of Speech. Accusations are being made, they should be addressed to the Mods before accusing people.
This is the fairest site on the Internet for ensuring people are given credit for finding codes which is more than can be said for other forums.

I am asking a simple question regarding the site rules. I have "accused" nobody of anything.

Re: Editing of posts
I agree that crediting is the polite thing to do and I can only assume that one of the moderators did it by mistake. Next time please PM them to ask.
