Doing so only amplifies the echochamber and encourages the natives. He should know better, but if you look at his post count and what he comments on, it appears he is trying to fit in with the "cool" kids.
I take it personal, and we all should, because one day that site is going to bite us all. It is ha ha funny til the public sees what is on there.
I will not contribute or post on there. I'm not sure why I even look on there anymore. There used to occasionally be some inside info that was true, if you go look at the last 400 threads, 390 of them have nothing to with JB or flying. At some point there will only be the 10 or so regulars left on there, but there BS will still be attributed to all of us.
Wow now that’s an interesting take.
That’s fine I take it personal that one of our elected reps with JetBlue ALPA on his profile has some very interesting left views but I’m sure that is just fine.
Anyway so to be clear I’m sane and don’t post crazy stuff but I’m guilty because other people post crazy stuff, that you and others don’t like.
Guilt by participation got it.
As I said in the other post it’s become more political lately. But even back in 2011 there was some interesting stuff there. I was an Awac guy and our forum we used real names mostly (hence pilotpayne) I was surprised to see bluepilots and how the anonymity let people say some interesting stuff.
But I’d be happy to defend every post I made on there, maybe you don’t agree on my political view but I keep it pretty respectful otherwise given JetBlue’s social media policy and my fanboy status (as you said) I should be fired by now. Which is why I always used my name, crash, (I’m sure I don’t get to know who you are)
if you want a good forum jblupilots is the most civil, it has a moderator as I said before.
