I don't appreciate the Vanuatu Daily Post puts comments of people who use nicknames; the journalist and the one interviewed are both known, so the ones who comment should as well be.

That is unless you really don't want an answer.

Yes, Leroy, I have contacted them.. no response.... and -- the vast MAJORITY of the questions in this forum are rhetorical... are they not??

That is a shame. Kind of seems like not responding, slow responses and/or cryptic responses are symptomatic of the nature of Vanuatu.
Yep, there is a lot of rhetoric here and people respond to the rhetoric all the time. The nature of the beast.

The difference being, we actually DO want answers to our questions.

There have been positive comments posted on that article so I doubt it is a case of them specifically not posting those sort of comments.

Scottdon... I know they have posted a few... but then they stopped. Now the ONLY comments that are being posted are negative. And I know of 3 people who have posted positive comments that have NOT been posted.

The problem is, from the newspapers point of view, posting positive comments may be seen as slightly stupid considering right now, there is no website, nor any word from the person/people supposedly running the alleged business.

Its supposed to be a newspaper Sam that allows comments on articles. In that vein it should allow ALL comments unless of course they are not fit for publication.
