Why this has to be done is beyond me, but let's make it simple.  Here is the pertinent forum posting rule everyone needs to have stamped on thier monitor, so they cannot miss it, as it is the most violated forum rule we have.

"4. Flamebaiting, flaming, being abusing, being disrepectful, trolling, spamming or posting to incite or annoy is not allowed. If you cannot make a positive contribution to the thread, then just stay out of it."

That rule, along with the rest are expected to be respected.  If you cannot do so, then please leave the board so others who do respect the forum rules might enjoy it more.

 :salute to Rall

So many of those old WW2 pilots are now gone, lets salute the dead and embrace the precious living that we still have.
By the way, Rall was a pall-bearer of many of the LW's greatest, and possibly some of the RAF (he did make very good friends with many of them). I will be polite and post a topic about the post war connection of the LW, RAF and the USAF.
Anyway, one of the greatest fighter pilots in history has passed. another salute  :salute

Skuzzy,

I went back through the posting. I didn't see what/who it was that violated rule #2. What happened? Was the post removed?
Just learning here.......

Nothing bothers me more than someone that can't be respectful to others here. Sometimes I think channel 200 should be "shut down." But that's letting a few rotten folks ruin it for others.

Rall is and will always be my favorite fighter pilot to listen to.  Everytime there is a WWII aviation show on TV, I wait patiently hoping that they will interview my favorite combat pilot.  I wished I had the opputunity to meet him in person.

Could one start a thread dedicated to negative side of the person? If so,would making positive comments about that person will result in being edited according to

Not trying to insult, its just unclear.
