Is My Myspace Page Violating PC's Internet Rules?

[lacychef]

Well, I just got an email saying my myspace page is violating PC's internet rules.... No where do I list Pampered Chef at all....I'm a little confused on this one!
So if you all have it listed on your's; you might want to remove it! They apparently are seeing things I'm not.

Email them and ask what specifically is the problem so you can fix it.

 

[mommyhugz1978]

Your on my friends list and I didn't see anything on their... You might want to call and ask becasue they often times do not write back.

 

[lacychef]

I did that; hopefully they'll tell me what's wrong.

Include a link to your myspace page and ask them specifically what the problem is because you don't see it.You don't have any live links to your site, do you? When a website refers someone via live link, the destination site lists the referring site.For example, if you go to my blog by clicking on a link from here, I get a report that says chefsuccess is the referring site. Perhaps there is someone on myspace that links to your personal PC site that you don't know about?

 

[lacychef]

Nope KG, no links. I dont' think any of my friends would do that either. My site is private too; which means only my friends can view the whole site...

 

[mommyhugz1978]

I looked at your whole site on myspace and I didn't see anything.The only thing they could really question is independant consulant that you have listed for career. But that can be anything.....

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

True, I'm an independent consultant, too.Those who can't do, teach.Those who can't teach, consult.

 

[mommyhugz1978]

HEHEHE that is a good one KG!!

 

[KimmyDarling]

Let us know what they say, Lacy. I don't see a thing wrong with your page at all.I *love* your choice of background, btw. Really pretty.

 

[lacychef]

True, I'm an independent consultant, too.

Those who can't do, teach.

very true KG!

And thanks Kimmy!
If HO doesn't email back by day's end, I will call this evening or first thing in the morning when hold time isn't bad.

 

[lacychef]

And thanks to you all for your input so far!

Could it be someone reported you because of a bulletin?
BTW...it was not me! LOL!!!

 

[allisonserna]

I have had a few run in's with so called chef police on myspace, in the end I've reported them for harassing me. I've never had any problems with HO about anything except for a recruit who said I "stole her SSN# and signed her up so i could promote to FD" LOL hmmm I must of logged on to her computer in Ohio (I live in CA), used her SSN# and Credit card info and her mailing address and her email address, just to sign up a complete stranger, whom I had never met before. LOL

Be leary of those kit-nappers. They will say anything to get out of admitting that they had no interest in doing the biz and just wanted over $500 in products for $90 (that was the old price of a kit)

Who actually sent you the message? HO, Myspace, or someone totally out there? The last one you can ignore anything you receive from them. Thats just spam.

 

[momoftwins]

I am on myspace but don't have you listed as a friend so I can't view your site.

 

[lacychef]

Yes, but why would this be a violation? I've posted sales & such before in a bulletin, but only my "friends" can view those. I wouldn't think that's against the rules. (especially since I've seen most other PC friends do it too!)

HO sent me the message.

 

[momoftwins]

Visit my online boutique with some cute stuff for Cheffers (and non-cheffers!), if you wanna take a look!
Are you on MySpace? If so, add me!

Kimmy - I added you as a friend on myspace. Just so you know when you get the request.

 

[RebelChef]

If you're set to private how did they even look at it to think there was a violation on it? Doesn't make much sense, does it?

I know~that's the weirdest (if that's a word, lol) thing!

I was wondering that too? Altho Im a myspace idiot so I wasnt going to ask that question. LOL

 

[yummybytes]

Someone on your friends list had to have forwarded a bulletin to them. :/

 

[erinyourpclady]

Yes, but why would this be a violation? I've posted sales & such before in a bulletin, but only my "friends" can view those. I wouldn't think that's against the rules. (especially since I've seen most other PC friends do it too!)

I don't think it would count anyway but I wasn't sure
Honestly...it has to be a mistake because I can't see what else it would be.....

 

[Mwalker]

ok, dumb question here.

How is putting a mass bulletin out to your friends list any different than sending a mass email to your friends email boxes? Each type of communication is private. Just amongst a select group of people. A group that YOU select.

That's a good question?!? I hope you find out soon Lacy!

Maybe because the type of site it is on? Just guessing there...

Lacy, I did a friend request in case you want another set of eyes to check. I have an account but not a page made. Basically just to help others check if need be.

Also, there is a chance PC has a different type of account. I know law enforcement officials have access to see anything on myspace. We know because they reported one of our Junior Firefighters to us with a questionable page.

 

[KimmyDarling]

This is very perplexing, especially if your profile is set to Private. And since bulletins are only seen by your friends.I just don't get it!

I'm wondering if they got her name or consultant # mixed up with someone they were going to talk to?

 

[pamperedlinda]

Lacy - could it be possible that someone filed a false complaint with HO about you? And maybe HO didn't do any sort of verification before they contacted you? I would definately talk with a supervisor if I were you.
