Found a new orchid forum at orchidgreenhouse.com

Check it out!


I would highly recommend avoiding this site. The owner of this
site has been guilty of many nefarious e-deeds. He has spammed
users of this forum in e-mail promoting his site, spoofing the
addresses of others to make it look as if the e-mail seemingly
came from them (I got a supposed e-mail from Aaron Hicks asking
me to check out the site). He has also stolen copyrighted pictures
and cultural notes from sites such as www.orchidweb.com (he now
hides those behind a username/password/registration, so it's
harder to find them). He even (for awhile), put the American
Orchid Society forum in a frame, making it look as if he was
hosting that forum.

I also have a very strong feeling that "Pete" who posted to this
newsgroup is none other than the owner of this site.

Do not support this site in any fashion!
