My understanding is that did not happen and from what I can by reading posts in this thread, it is not disputed either. What does however seem to have taken place was something different. icopress did not ask anybody to make posts containing fake-positive comments, he asked for common sense to prevail in circumstances when it obviously should.
I have only good things to say about icopress and I respect him, but I dont want to see members wearing signature to always write fake positive stuff about service they promote.
I think we're making this more complicated than it needs to be. I tend to like stuff simple.
For those joining these campaigns - Don't participate in the promotion of a product or service that you have nothing good to say about. Yeah, money's appealing, but good judgement still matters.
For campaign managers . Don't hesitate to warn participants whose behavior on the forum may harm the brand they are promoting. And, if necessary, it is your right to remove such members from the campaign even if it is only a matter of opinion. You run a business, not a charity.
