Late last night, tucked away on another thread (see https://www.key.aero/forum/historic-aviation/145771-metal-detector-find…), was the announcement from Peter that:
Just realized we can fully moderate again.. !!!!
Is it too much to hope that, finally, the tide is turning? And after so long an interregnum, I’d be grateful to know who the ‘we’ now comprises.

Plus in the Newark Air Museum briefing thread – I’ve invited them to the Aeroboot sale on September 26th!!

The same ***##*!! has posted on at least four threads.

I have no idea how much moderators can do and what responsibilities they have but at least one thread on here, Brian’s Science Museum thread from 6 years ago, and two in the Forum Updates section have spam that sticks out like a sore thumb.

Apologies, Bruce. Is it just the two of you now?
By: Peter - 2nd September 2020 at 15:35
Bruce got ma back 🙂
By: Bruce - 2nd September 2020 at 14:54
No, I’m still here, but like the rest of you, infrequently these days!

In view of what Peter has said I wonder whether the title to this thread should be modified from the plural to the singular?

Next one is just above this, Peter, but it’s becoming an impossible task. Good luck and thanks.

I had a post removed within minutes the other day when I posted about Duxford and legends cancelled I had missed that someone else had posted, so if that is done that quick then the others pointed out could easily be removed, or is it bringing traffic through?

Vis à vis the post at 06:57, I think that it’s called taking the p##s!
By: Peter - 31st August 2020 at 02:54
I pulled the one lads any others?

avion: It’s sure that no-one is watching over this site, yet alone over the watchers.

a ‘Report’ button would be nice

I think they’re all at home on their laptops regularly earning $20,000+ dollars for 4 hours work. You can’t blame them really. After all, it’s much better than a 9 to 5 desk job. In fact, it’s quite awesome.

oh the irony!
By: Mothminor - 29th August 2020 at 11:02
I think you’re making a safe assumption, AA. The forum has turned into a real mess. Bad enough if spammers open their own threads but to be allowed to hijack genuine threads and their posts to remain there for any length of time is shocking. It must be seriously off-putting to anybody newly considering joining an aviation forum.

I think you would be correct avion. Maybe they will enlighten us. Bruce? Peter? Are you there? Any others reinstated? Thanks.
