    That is not what you stated. Choice of words matter. Review your sources for the the correct information before you post all of your posts. For individuals who work in these institutions, and many follow ZooChat, they are proud of continuous accreditation. Choose your words better and report accurate information in all of your posts please. It can be insulting to those who work for those institutions if people read your post which suggests they lost accreditation at some point. I won't dis on your continuous posting, but I will point out that it needs to be accurate if you are going to constantly update every thread.
