			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In <a href="http://www.couchsurfing.com/group_read.html?gid=6404&amp;post=352894" title="Jim Stone on refunding verification money" target="_blank">this thread on member verifications</a>, Jim had some interesting things to say about refunding verification money. However, the last three posts have now been removed by an &#8220;administrator&#8221;. Here&#8217;s what they said (I have the full HTML of the page saved if anyone would like a copy).</p>
<p><em>Mikky:</em></p>
<blockquote><p>found a member recently who sent the money but when i verified her, she had her profile already deleted, guess we should refund her the money.<br />
right?</p>
<p>Mikky</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Jim:</em></p>
<blockquote><p>We only refund when asked to do so.</p>
<p>Jim</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Mikky:</em></p>
<blockquote><p> would you (&#8220;we&#8221;?) qualify this as fair, serious and professional behaviour?</p>
<p>i would call it a second class behaviour</p>
<p>+ it doesn´t fit to all the wannabee speech&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;we&#8221; might wanna reconsider this</p>
<p>Mikky</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Jim:</em></p>
<blockquote><p>As far as I know this person has not asked for a refund. It&#8217;s not up to us to decide that they suddenly want their money back unless they ask for it. What do you not get about that?</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t appreciate your tone here, Mikky. If you have a problem with me please try to learn to be respectful of your other teammates and take this out of this group where we can deal with this privately.</p>
<p>Jim</p></blockquote>
<p><em>Mikky:</em></p>
<blockquote><p>well i asked a simple question if CS will follow a professional well will spirit of fair trade</p>
<p>you gave a simple answer</p>
<p>easy as that</p>
<p>i don´t think that your privat appreciations are a topic here.<br />
feel free to email me and i would gladly inform you what RESPECT is all about.</p>
<p>Mikky</p></blockquote>
