I agree that a social networking site, or a site with public content needs to make sure that they are constantly monitoring and banning people who post inappropriate content. During the time we had Public Posts we did have someone doing this role full time and we did consider other ways to moderate and “police” Public Posts. However, we decided that Public Posts was not “our job”, as you put it. We decided that “our job” was multi-party video chat and specifically the ability for people to video chat live with people they know. As such we removed Public Posts. Our decision was a strategic one, not one based on the issues going on with Public Posts. I know that there was a small community of people that were using Public Posts who will miss them, but we had to make a (difficult) decision that was in the best interests of the majority of our users Thanks for your note.

When had the public post at least had some enetertinment on it: now is an stupid blank web page (with no use at all, no information about anythink..incredible..what a waste of resources and opportunities here!!)..so is not included in home pages anymore. Now the only think I use is your pop-up "global messenger", because make me easier to have contact with all my acounts..but after your decision of taking away the public post I'm looking for a better"global messenger" that give me more than you are giving me now..sorry for you For me your page is the most useless page in the whole web.

You know alot of us were on here to network to talk, to have fun ! But people abused that privelage they came on here doing nasty inappropriate stuff. And then again alot of people complained too much! And it isn't fair that the ones that weren't causing any trouble get booted off to network now! You guys thought wrong! You thought with your heads in your butts! I have been on tokbox since December of 2008! And you know what i enjoyed it! Now that i can't even talk to people this is OUTRAGEOUSLY UNFAIR!!! Ya know what this isn't a legit business you guys made this site as a social network and now your booting us out! Thats un fair! Micky you need to figure two things out! 1. Who were the ones causing the trouble, and who were the ones that you were receiving the most complaints about? (THOSE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO YOU SHOULD BE DELETING OR BANNING FROM POSTING) 2. WHY ARE YOU TREATING THE ONES THAT MADE TOKBOX GREAT LIKE CRAP! I.E. "Brick The Whine Guy" and a few others! THIS SITE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ACCESSIBLE TO LITTLE KIDS!!!! TOKBOX should be moderating this site instead of just putting the computer down and leaving this site to do what it does without any people maintaining it and keeping it secure! Thirteen year olds and younger SHOULD NOT BE ON HERE in case you don't know theres a "Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act" Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance which you are supposed to be in compliance with the requirements of COPPA (Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act), where your not supposed to be collecting any information from anyone under 13 years of age. UNLESS you filled out their required paperwork! Not only that but a HUGE Social network like this should not just be LEFT AS IS. There has to be network security specialists, people reading posts, keeping spam & Herrassment at bay, anybody herrassing can be tried by law no matter if its online or offline! You have a job to do! And your not doing it! Instead of making tokbox a place to go for people your making it a destroyed spec of what it used to be! Yes you want to fix it well trust me if you hire me and many more network specialist you can DEFINITELY BE REASSURED that anyone being herrassed or treated unfairly will be booted off! Any one sending any inappropriate videos to people will be booted off! I DON"T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I WENT ON THE PUBLIC POSTS & ON MY INBOX and saw inappropriate videos! And a week later they were still in the Public Post Q. You guys have no rights to be running this site! I could make this site MUCH BETTER with the assistance of 2 or more network specialists HECK WITH ENOUGH TIME I COULD RUN THIS SITE ON MY OWN! The fact is you guys cannot just THROW PEOPLE OUT that have been using your site for 2 - 3 years like me and many others! Trust me if you guys got off your butts NO i mean stayed on your butts and used your fingers more on the keyboard and mouse youd be able to find negative remarks, negative videos ALL WITHIN THE PUBLIC POSTS SECTION!!!! Theres a difference between the FREEDOM OF SPEECH and HURTING peoples feelings! AS WELL AS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN sending a video to talk to people & SENDING NEGATIVE/PORNOGRAPHIC VIDEOS to people on a site thats MEANT FOR "JUST TALKING" so trust me if you did your job this site could be back to its original self!
