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: Ah. If that's true, it would seem to be a conflict of interest to me as well.

In reply to: 's message, "It is not a Miss Illinois prelim, so it isn't related to our organization and I hope we don't get any bad PR from it. I think it has to do with a child winning Marion Main Street, but her mother was a co-director/volunteer. When she won people complained that it was a conflict of interest. Not sure what the outcome was." on 10:07:21 09/25/15 Fri

Bottom line is why are we taking all our dirty laundry to the media? This appears to be easily addressed privately. Maybe the mom is going to be butt hurt or the board is going to need to issue an apology, but this should be handled privately and like adults. Nobody really cares about the princess program. As far as most people are concerned, it could go away. But I don't think you can be angry that someone (Gail) had the sense to say it didn't seem right. If you want any program to be successful (*cough* Miss IL), you absolutely have to make it appear to be fair. (NT)No name10:57:03 09/28/15 Mon
