Sorry "that sort of thing" didn't agree with you. We will all go back to talking about our favorite airplane and the best place to eat a burrito. It wasn't a cheap shot, it's what I percieve the situation to be. You guys handled an "issue" by removing a thread. I think it was wrong, but since I'm not a moderator and can't really do much on this site, I will redicule that decision. Of course, all I do on this website is cause problems, never provide any advice, and try my hardest to make everyone as angry as possible. I will go back to flightinfo.com as soon as I can.

Don't have to, somebody already has! :D

I'll care care of that, Red Card is on its way to you :p

Backing up what HSLD said:

HSLD, myself, and our 3 excellent moderators here at APC stay busy using our best judgment on what to do with certain posts. We realize we can't please everyone with our decisions, but our goal is to do what's best for the 98% of our members who respect our Terms of Service and add value with their posts.

Most of us appreciate your hard work =)

Hey, they straightened me up, I was a mess when I first got on here:p I am somewhat civilized now :eek:

You were only "uncivilized" when you temporarily changed your avatar.
Now you are one of us. :cool:

"I will go back to flightinfo.com as soon as I can"

Buh Bye...

Don't let the door hit you in the buttocks on the way out.

Try Jetcareers, anything goes there.

You don't catch on to sarcasim too well do you? I think it's kind of pointless to have a forum talking about aviation when some of the problems in aviation are "taboo" on said forum. I for one was interested in the points of view and I thought it was rather close minded of the administrators to just yank it rather than at least putting up "Hey, lets try to talk about this like adults". Personally, I'm not someone who just posts crap for the sake of getting a rise out of people. I don't sit on here and make a bunch of outlandish comments and tear everyone down for whatever opinion they have. And I certainly don't get my panties in a bunch when someone disagrees with me or I'm "offended".

"and I thought it was rather close minded of the administrators to...."

Yeah, we get that. I'm only a mod, not an admin, but I'm sure your opinion's been noted somewhere way up the food chain.

Again, I kinda like this site as much as because of what isn't here, as what is. The admins set the tone on how that works and I think it works well. As I said, there are other places you could have had the discussion you so eagerly seek. This isn't that place.

Off the top of my head, I'd guess that it wasn't so much the subject was taboo as the admin who deleted the thread wasn't interested in seeing the name calling and angst that was sure to follow.

I'd suggest that, in the future, if you disagree with a decision a mod or admin makes, that you PM or email them. I've found that the admins here are happy to take the time to explain themselves if something is really bothering you. I can promise you you'll get nowhere if you publically "redicule that decision" at the forums (I think you meant ridicule)
