Mind your business
 
If some of you do not want to respond to a thread, mind your business and move on to something else. Dont go around closing threads because you think its redundant. I am actually trying to get some info that I didnt get else where. I dont know why some of you are out playing APC police and taking it upon yourselves to close threads that have nothing to do with you.

HSLD 02-18-2013 07:04 PM

APC is a community built around the goodwill of fellow pilots, not a public utility.

You started a thread, asked a question (it was answered), and then started a new thread and asked the same question. I closed the thread because of the duplication and you agreed to the forum rules that allow me to do that.

Your original thread is still open in the appropriate forum.

MUFAZA 02-18-2013 07:10 PM

I got one answer from you. It doesnt mean no one else has a say. Like I said before, if you do not want to offer an input, move on. There is no reason to close a post simply because of you opinions. I am well aware of what APC is and I respect the rules, I am also an aviator.

If you don't like the way a host treats you, don't enter his house.

I'm not sure if you're missing the point that I'm the site admin and I closed one of duplicate threads for housekeeping, or if you're just trying to endear yourself to the community.

Like I said above, your original thread is still open in the appropriate forum. If you want to continue your discussion on this topic, post in the original thread.

We will just leave it at that.

lakehouse 02-18-2013 07:28 PM

We're having a network problem that the techs are working on affecting all internal links. What's happening is that the site is appending an extra base URL to the link resulting in a "page not found error".

We're aware of it and working on it now. Thanks!

Wait, let me guess, you asked about applying at Gojets?

I was thinking the same thing, but didn't want to be banned like B-4.

Pot calling kettle...:eek:

I will say this has brought a smile to my face while I sit in my broke ass MULTI-ENGINE (Anyone need multi time? ...:D) airplane and kill time.

ShyGuy 02-19-2013 06:30 AM

To answer his question, don't do it! It seems from reviews the owner will take your money beforehand, and hen not give you the full hours, with various excuses. My best advice will be in aviation to pay as you go, and not drop a large amount up front. There's too much fraud.

A while ago there was a place called Skymates that offered multi time packages, and I heard ok things about them. You coul look into that.

Why MUFAZA? Why, why, why? Why do you do it? Why? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom or truth? Perhaps peace? Could it be for love? Illusions, MUFAZA. Vagaries of perception. Temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose! And all of them as artificial as the attitude indicator itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, MUFAZA. You must know it by now. You can't win. It's pointless to keep fighting. Why, MUFAZA, why? Why do you persist?

greenpilot20 02-19-2013 06:59 AM

time to go pound sand Mufaza. This site is free and a great resource for information, networking, and all around pilot camaraderie. No one is forcing you to be on here, it's their site and hardly anyone feels these rules are unfair.

TOTD needs no further nominees.

From someone who has been involved in a fair number of thread closings, all I have to say is....

We actually see this type of attitude more often than you might think.
It is amazing what *rights* some think they have.
The most often misused 'freedom of speech' and 'censorship' arguments are the most interesting.
Imagine someone coming into this particular users 'living room' and making like demands!
This thread is a train wreck and worthy of entertainment value - so for now it continues! :)

If you want to keep a thread or topic "hot", why not just "bump" the thread so it stays more active. Mod is right.......a new, but identical thread is pointless and usually doesn't produce the desired result anyway and results in excessive forum clutter.

Just my .02.........

Mephesto 02-19-2013 07:53 AM

I'm an Eagle guy, my airine is offering $5,000 signing bonuses to newhires.

As I read this thread, I think to myself- we're competing to hire guys like THIS?

Could you be more specific as to which guys you think your airline is competing to hire?

Just saying that if guys like MUFAZA are what's left in the pilot pool, we're really scraping the bottom.

I think it's fantastic that the barrel is being scraped. It's the only thing that will raise pay and QOL. The airlines only pay what they can get away with and for a long time there have been lots of applicants lining up to get punched in the face in this business.

There's no reason for most young people to choose this line of work when they can get a desk job for $40,000 straight out of college. I have mentored many a young pilot, but I have chased away just as many. For the select few, this industry can be lucrative. It's like baseball, though; most of us sit in the minors waiting to get called to the majors. Some make it, some don't.
