    I have already PMd the Webmaster and I assume VeeOne has as well. I am usually in sympathy with the forum’s moderation but not this time.

    How do you do it? I started a thread because I couldn’t find a link.

    Ooh dear – you are living dangerously here………;)

    Well, two of my posts removed when at the end of the day I was only giving advice to somebody that has clearly got a problem. I do believe that a seasoned campaign of complaints is required to solve this.
    Whilst personal attacks are obviously banned, so should moderator bully tactics, even when the bullying is psychological based on an assumed superiority.
    I’ve watched many many threads turn to rat**** because of this attitude, and many users being clearly upset. Even brand new and very valuable users like VeeOne.
    For all we know, the “Webmaster” is probably him, because with such outright confidence in removing posts with the “I’ll hide behind this big internet door” attitude. GA must go.

    Don’t you know, all enthusiasts are suspected terrorists? No sense in opening viewing platforms from which we can lob our WMDs onto parked planes.

    In the days when the Piers were open at Ringway, and when A/c had stairs not ramps, I’ve seen “Viewers” drop stuff to passengers. Innocent stuff like a make-up bag that was forgotten, or similar. This is of course after baggage check and X ray.
    The piers were shut to viewers a long long long time before 9-11.
    In this day and age, I’m glad the public can’t get that close TBH. Spotters will have to make do with the peri. fence / viewing parks.

    Sorry Creak, but “Get up and go” is not how I would describe what is actually Self Harm. It shows a mental instability IMO, and not the best person to be running a Company.

    Well, we are at the age when if something isn’t leaking it means it’s dried up.

    So, when a fellow olde git, who isn’t 100% ready for the Olympics, goes AWOL, we fear.

    “Informed”.
    Well, I’ve made some pretty bad decisions in my life because I was informed by the wrong people. Or rather, the right people…with some other agenda.
    That is people, Governments, Banks, Lawyers and Top Neddy at my (Very recent) ex place of employment.

    But yes, we do need to read all the sides. Sometimes it is very difficult because “We know we are right”, with our own baggage.
    I’m never one to sit on a fence, I try and understand both sides but I will come down on one side and stand for it. A wrong decision is better than no decision at all. Or, as Patton said “A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow”.
