Another recently close forum - "Forum died"

This particular forum historically slows down in summer. Most positions have been filled. This avenue for employers and prospective employees was created to give those an opportunity to connect. It is the only area in the collective forums allowed to advertise.

When people continually attack those positions, employers go elsewhere. We have tried to make this forum work in a positive way, but with those who continually attack, it is a real challenge.

We thank you who understand and abide by the policy.

DianneOK, one of the moderators, not the only one......and not the one who makes the decisions.....

Please help, I am confused! The moderator's comment above indicates: "This avenue for employers and prospective employees was created to give those an opportunity to connect." I believe the intent was to communicate that the intent was to create an opportunity for employers and prospective employees to interact.

However, the immediately preceding post by the moderator states: "FYI .... "new posts are closed immediately .....Not true. Only those posting positions available are closed per policy."

One post espouses mutual exchange of information but, the initial post indicates that a post that identifies an available position is closed.

Perhaps this is thought to be logical however, I don't think so!
