No then I guess everything they've said in the past is justified.

For that you want him banned?


Seriously?

If you read my post you'd see that I was referring to all of their past actions on this forum, not just that one thread.
I guess it all depends on how you view internet forums. I see them as a place to attempt to have a meaningful exchange of ideas and information. People like CB and WD, (and from what I can see- you), see them as a place to vent their anger and frustration under a veil of anonymity, or in some cases, just be a dick.
For the most part, I think the mods do a decent job of keeping things civil on here, but it seems like CB and WD get away with a lot, so I called for the ban. I guess you like the tone they set.

Seriously.

It's not their views on east/west it's how they treat people. Especially the one guy that says son to everybody. Truth is I feel bad for his real son being raised by him.

Anymore I just feel pity for them. I won't advocate for a ban, but it would probably benefit them the most. Time to warm up the ignore list.

The biggest issue is that they won't let go of the past. US and AA are in a new merger now and they can't let go of the US/AA saga that goes back to 2005.

Thread after thread gets ruined by their banter. Most people on here are trying to have adult, informational discussion about the AA/US merger, not the Nic fight that is essentially dead.

Instead of letting bygones be bygones they just keep instilling divisiveness by name calling and bashing of their coworkers.

Just curious who you fly for? As far as the NIC being dead, no matter how bad the east wishes it were, it's not. While these 2 seem passionate on their position, how are they any different then some of the prolific easties?

When he figures it out he will leave on his own, or stay and provide us the continued blue pill humor.

It would be mistake to ban these guys.

I also lurk and occasionally post but find so much of this stuff mind numbing.

If posters were inhibited from expressing their passion this would turn into a real bore. Not sayings other people don't have rights or shouldn't be upset. I'm simply saying if this forum becomes monotone it will have a mass exedous.

Unless you don't like the ideas, in which case those people should be banned. Since you have determined someone contributes nothing meaningful, you call for him to be banned.

Would it work the other way if he claims you contribute nothing meaningful?

That there is pretty funny, Mr. Dashdog.

As in ironic.
