I love Airtran and all it's pilots.
Gup
We love you too, buddy... It's all good.
MODERATOR HAT BACK ON.
Yes, I gave someone a BRIEF F.I. vacation a couple days ago because of personal attacks combined with profanity. They're not banned.
I do the same thing when required to anyone ELSE that crosses the line. If that makes me lame, hey, I've been called worse, and I have thick enough skin to shrug, say "whatever", and go on about my day. Not very concerned about what some anonymous forum flame baiter has to say about it, to tell you the truth.
What I *DO* care about is trying to keep this site at the very least CIVIL. It may be complete farce about 99% of the time, and it certainly gets WAY off the reservation when it comes to the original threads but, unfortunately, some of the pilots on this forum evidently lack the professionalism to police themselves, and I'm not going to apologize about making sure it doesn't denigrate into a COMPLETE mud slinging.
If you don't like it, email the website owner:
[email protected] If he doesn't respond, then I guess he doesn't agree with you. If he does, I'll gladly turn in my moderator hat and have more time to go do other things.
I enjoy having a good time, joking around, even instigating a little from time to time in JEST. I do NOT, however, agree with inciting people to get irritated just as a way to get your jollies off. If that's your game, you can go into non-aviation chat where we pretty much don't moderate anything unless it becomes racist or contains open threats of physical violence.
That's it. Period. The end. Like it or leave, it's a free country (but a private message board with rules).
Thread locked. Have a nice day.
/moderator hat off
p.s. Longhorn and I have been friends for many, many years and will continue to be friends LONG after this thread is dead and gone.
p.s.s. I'm not a Captain at AAI.
