SANParks Social Media

[Flutterby]

Oh dear....what a to do!!

[Klipspringer]

I was thinking the same about the names, that's why it is so important to see the original posts. It is extremely unfair to remove the posts and then attack the posters mentioning their names. It makes you think that Sanparks might not be that sure to be right, if they do not leave the posts to be read

The crazy thing is, it turns out that the post was made on another group not SANParks Kruger FB group.

That's an interesting move now to monitor social media and then call out People on SANParks FB

And today by Admin:

I have also escalated the requests that such posters as referred to in the post by SANParks be banned from the park.

How can you ban someone from the park from that situation

Those admins think they are little gods on there, I hope someone takes this thing further and sue the hell out of them

[Lisbeth]

How can you "escalate a request" ?

I would like to know that too The Park is not private!

Do you know which group?

Two important notes here:

Firstly, if this ever gets to court which would be foolish and unlikely, taxpayer money would be used to back the plaintiff, regardless of who the plaintiff may be, and it is incredibly expensive. Secondly, should the respondents counter-sue, taxpayer money will be used to settle such a claim, as one would assume the initial plaintiff operates under the mantle of SANParks as an official employee. So in other words it is easy threatening legal action using other people's money...

SANParks spends millions in legal fees and settlements every year, which is not public knowledge as far as we can ascertain.

It is not a joke accusing people of racism without very clear and obvious merit in today's times, as it can lead to severe personal, financial and employment consequences for the respondent.

Maybe this time the admins of the social media groups have exaggerated and will not be backed up by SANParks

[Richprins]

It doesn't matter, too late now, assuming they operate with the blessing of SP!

Anyway, it is just a scare tactic, as said, but will be a mess if the respondents counter...

[Klipspringer]

Do you know which group?

No. It was not mentioned.


Just for the sake of my curiosity: Does the transformation thing not apply to the SANParks volunteers, such as FB admins/moderators and HRs?

The post that I saw was referring to a Marloth group post but suspect that they have all been deleted by all those mentioned by now .
