VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: I don't know this family, but maybe they couldn't afford to "purchase" their daughter a title, not to mention that purchasing a title shouldn't really be what this program is about in the first place. Whether the Winters offered them the opportunity or they did not, it was in poor taste to crown the others publicly at that time, not only for the 4th competitor's sake, but also for the sake of the actual winner. It just showed bad judgment. Period. It's probably best to just learn from it and move on.

She could be appointed just as the others were and and I would be very surprised if the Winters did not offer her that opportunity." on 14:53:46 02/22/16 Mon [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
