    “Would have been” 😉

    Mmm well, depends on a point of view that really, officially the aircraft is in storage(given that it looks extremely unlikely to ever fly again) as it has not been scrapped or destroyed it still ages?? no? ( a bit like myself…knackered but yet i still age 😀 ) 🙂

    Have currently on my hard drives 51,389 original pics (before paintshop) and another 9,150 post paintshop, also have 9 full dvd’s no idea how much is on them. I shoot silly amounts each time i go somewhere, at Zurich earlier this year for 2 days for example, shot 4,778, LHR for 3 hours last week, 960. as i travel a fair bit and visit airports a lot with my cam i easily shoot a few thousand a week average(very rarely delete, no matter how terrible they are!!).The magic of digital!!

    Can’t seem to find the sports thread, so here’s a new one.

    Does anyone actually watch/like football here? If so, what team? 🙂

    Britains first ever European champions,current SPL champs and bookies have already paid out on CELTIC winning the SPL again this year(and it’s only November)
    Lifelong Celtic fan, enjoying some good times at Paradise.
    Don’t like English footy,but enjoy seeing Chelsea and Man U get pumped (when it happens) especially Chelsea just to get it right up Moanrhino :dev2: :dev2:

    There are at least 3 people on this forum just as guilty of Trolling, yet you ignore them and single out Joe? Thats victimization and IMO, just as bad as trolling.

    So far here, all he has done is post little factoids and then defends them when someone inevitably cannot accept what he is saying and instead of gracefully suggesting something else, they post trolling comments.
    Alright, Joe doesn’t help the cause by trolling back, but initialy his threads here have been posted for informational purposes.

    The Mods are doing the right job. They, unlike you, are not letting anything from other forums allow them to judge him.

    As they should not!!, they should judge him by his posting HERE…which is nothing short of trolling or flame baiting. I am not singling Curry out here, there are other trolls for sure,BUT, HE started this thread, with valid (if unsubstantiated)points peppered with flame bait, if that is not the sign of a true troll at work,what is?? Do you honestly believe that a troublemaker banned from EVERY reputable forum he joins posts here innocently??
    As GA said trolls get ignored/banned and move to the next available platform, exactly as he has done in Key,he gets a warning about his conduct,disappears into a hole for a few months then returns and starts all over again!! and as can be seen, all the Moderator intervention posts lately have been centred around him/his posts!
    As i said earlier if someone starts flame baiting in a MODERATED forum,then the mods should moderate!! 99.9% of posters in here are decent, and do not wish undesirable trolls/flame baiters being allowed to spoil their forum
    Again NOT a dig at the mods,merely my own opinion that they should ban ALL those whose only input to Key is to cause unrest.Am sure i speak for the majority in not wanting to read a thread which looks interesting,till you open it and find a load of nonsense!! The title of the forum is “Commercial Aviation” not “Flamebait post forum”

    Some very sound advice indeed from Kaplan Dig.

    If people didn’t rise to their bait, most practitioners of the trolling arts would pack up their tackle and seek more productive waters.

    GA

    Throwing my tuppence in here, as it seems that for some strange reason any thread Silver Snapper starts/participates ends up with a MOD warning….
    If the MODs are aware of trolls ,why not simply ban them?? unfortunately Key is the “more productive waters” as he is banned from many other fora strangely enough for causing conflict in EVERY post he made,sound familiar??
    Sorry do not see the point in a moderated forum of just hoping a troll will get bored and leave! what exactly is the role of moderators that don’t moderate??
    Not having a go at the MODs (i see that thread is already happening on General Discussion) they do a great thankless job, and as human, make mistakes, and IMO allowing trolls free run of the forum is a mistake.
