Yeah, I remember the “Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh, NLF is gonna win” chants in the ‘60s. As it turned out, those Commie Pinko Hippies were just as greedy as any of the old robber barons, and many of them are now running Wall Street, Hollywood, and the Media. Of course, they swore that they would never sell out to the Establishment, but they did, and so will today’s protesters. :p

Good points.

They are disgusting.

At least millennials are spitting on returning soldiers.

He then accused me of causing a specific flight to be delayed by posting on here. I was in Toronto for training at Flight Safety and no where near an airplane. Instead another Captain got to do the Chief Pilot dance over his accusations. This guy also threatened to sabotage my pursuit of a career at Delta where he works. I went a few rounds with Internet Branding (The company that runs this platform). They refused to tell me anything about their investigation. But they would delete all posts that I had previously made. Both the moderator and prolific poster are still active here. I’m where I want to be career wise so IDGAF now. But it was a low blow for those two to pull shenanigans like that.

Moral of the story it’s not just social media you need to be careful with. There’s some vindictive people out there and in here.

What happened to the forum where people wrote where they were hired?

I remember that. What happened to the other captain, did they make it on to Delta as well?

I would guess there are more 50 year old legacy captains with wrinkled and stained shirts making embarrassing PAs than there are 23 year old pilots living with their parents in a basement full of participation trophies.

Unlikely. Moderators can access your registration email and IP address, but would be fired for using or sharing that inappropriately.

That said, probably best to use an anonymous email address just to be sure you don't get compromised by some rogue. IP addresses can give insight, but are not definitive since they are shared... very few individuals would ever have a permanent IP.

I look forward to your response to these two unlikely examples. Notice how quickly and who shut down the second thread.

Bucking Bar is not a mod, nor has he ever been. But nobody should be telling anyone where where you're posting from.
