TV trivia is fascinating, but has nothing to do with DS and the topic.  Please take the discussion to private messaging or perhaps a trivia forum.  Thanks!

The norm in a case like this I would think would be for it to say
something like, Hey! If you like this sample- here is how to get more.

You'd think so.

Has anyone else gotten something like this?

Yes.  On the CD itself is something about it being a promotional copy.  Otherwise, like you said, there's no explanation.

But you can order from the series here:  http://www.doctorwho.co.uk/sapphireandsteel/index.shtml  The director (Jason Haigh-Ellery) of the episode represented Big Finish at the recent Festival.

Here's the bottom line:
I just find it disrespectful to use someone's death PLUS someone else's failure to note that person's partner in a death notice, as a jumping-off point to preach and politicize.  Then it goes into someone else's personal problems of being persecuted by DS fans five years ago.  I was under the impression that these different types of political issues were off limits here.

This is a political issue pertaining to DS fandom.  And as MB said, ShadowGram is a DS publication.  What you are calling "a jump to conclusions," I call an established pattern.

Besides, you lampooned fan politics yourself recently in this post:

I'm not knowledgeable about DS fandom.
You're fortunate in this regard.

   <sure>

You deleted something Mcfly said.

Yes, I did, because it violated her user agreement.  If she wants further clarification, I will explain it to her off the boards.

5825
Half of it was, the half that quoted the Times about what the actors died from that were in the play "Boys in The Band"

I haven't seen the post; if one of the other mods edited your comments, then they can provide the explanation.  But I can assure you that it was not removed because of a lack of sensitivity, or because it stated that Joel Crothers, Chris Bernau, or Keith Prentice died from complications of AIDS when this information has been published in Craig's "Barnabas & Company." However, and please correct me if I'm wrong, I understood that it was omitted from all of Joel Crother's obituaries at the time of his death at the request of his family.  Thankfully, Craig rectified this.

5826
How come I wrote a post quoting the NY Times about how the actoris who were in the original play "Boys In The Band"
died deleted?

Don't know what you're talking about.  The only posts deleted from these boards in the past 2 weeks were duplicates.  And quoting the NY Times, as long as it's on topic, is not contrary to any board guideline.

Are you sure that the post was submitted?

This is 2006 and you delete a post I wrote about someone being gay? Next time you are at a fest take a long look around you you meant see some gay people.

To whom are you speaking?  Like I said, I don't know what post you could be referring to.

The Forum guideline is as follows:  7. These boards are not forums for the spreading of gossip or innuendo, or the defaming of the DS actors' private lives. Comment on their public behavior, whether it be a personal appearance or in the course of some other form of public exposure (i.e. a talk show, Fest appearance, etc.) is perfectly acceptable, however.

Posting published information is accepted on the boards.  Innuendo and hearsay are not.

Welcome, Widows Wail.  Looking forward to hearing more from you!   :D

Okay, last time I'm asking.  Get thee to the Testing board and please learn how to add spoiler code.  I've otherwise enjoyed your comments immensely and wouldn't want to see your posting privileges restricted to the Testing board.

5829
Not only that, but she got the charity info wrong.  Who is SHE to take it upon herself to say who Craig & Joe wanted contributions to go to?  Did she have authorization?  No, she didn't even have the right information.

Well, a friend of his did post in another topic that Craig had requested that donations be given to the NY ASPCA.

BuzzH, your last comment was removed.  Gossip about other fans and all that... remember?  ;)

5830
Those who wish to remember Craig may do so to the ASPCA - American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NYC office: 424 E. 92nd St., NYC, NY 10128-6804), or to your local animal shelter.

Joe provided this information:  (follow the link to the post)

Dear Friends:

I am writing with the information for the organization that I have named as the recipient of any donations that people would like to make in remembrance of Craig Hamrick. ...

It's great to see you posting, collinwoodgoverness!

Yeah I have noticed about the spoilers box....good idea....anyone watching the show for the first time won't have to worry about reading what happens in the story before it happens.

It seems you've misunderstood; the moderators would like for you to be the one to use spoiler code.  Your posts may be spoiling plot points before a mod can edit them, but the bottom line is that it's your responsibility.

Ben Stokes (though he was resentful at having to be an "endangered servant" (as his descentant the good Professor put it) to the Collins family (particularly Joshua)

Ben was an indentured servant-- an admitted thief (he stole food to satisfy his hunger) bound over for services.
