Rule change question.

Please reinstate both rules. The o club the last few weeks has not been a good look.

If you all want to discuss politics I would suggest creating a new forum for it and hiding the contents, so it's something that you need to opt in to see.

but airing that beef here is going to help who? thats what i mean, that this is not the place. A dozen of you guys argue back and forth convincing noone any different than what they believe already. The only thing any of you accomplish is wearing out another keyboard.

Write a congressmen, a senator, a news media outlet to try and get your point across. It may gain traction and you'll be helping the world. Here all you guys do is make most other people who read the boards just avoid it all.

You are correct Fugi

You have nary an inkling how I feel about HT.

Are you being deliberately obtuse?  It's plainly obvious I was describing what IMO you feel about HT's rules/moding, and not HT himself.  I based that directly upon things you've said in threads in the last 4 days I've been reading them.  You've made several, more than several, posts/quips about bias from HT.

You have favorites and I'm not one of them, it seems. I suspect you'll see political nefariousness in my posts no matter how carefully I tip-toe minefields now.

Or I won't but you might 'find' one, anyway. Nobody has supported the community, game and you more than I. Do divisive politics mean more to you than that?

Regarding tip-toeing around political bait. I, too, practiced such diligently before the rule relaxation. Sadly, there is a bit of bias regarding who got away with what .... or even what was what.

I can quote in others if you like.  I only know how you feel about HT with regards to current and future moderation/rules, specifically from what you've posted.

Also, again, so far as Skuzzy "diligently applying the rules", you do realize that many members here who were modded felt that YOU specifically had the same bias from Skuzzy that you're saying others have from HT right now.  I find it a bit amusing now that the shoe is on the other foot for you, that you're saying some of the same things about HT others said about Skuzzy for years.

Yup!

I know you meant this for Arlo, but Skuzzy muted me for 2 weeks when I posted a link about Obama canceling the Thunderbirds air shows...

You're not the only one either, just among players I've flown with in the last 3 squads, and lots of friends at the "other" board, there are many instances of similar times we've all had a post modded/delted/etc. I already gave my strangest example, and to be fair when I pm'd Skuzzy and asked him wth, he said it was a mistake and put it back.  Having done his job for a short while on an even larger sim forum, I was never envious of his job, and completely understood how difficult it was, and impossible to not make what others would feel were mistakes.  It's a lose/lose deal.

Again, Arlo, I'm not trying to be a dick, I just find it amusing, as I myself have said almost verbatim the same things about Skuzzy as you are about HT in recent days (in terms of moderation).  Even when you brought it HTs attention a few posts back that nobody had been a more ardent supporter of his, I HAVE said the same thing to HT when discussing what I felt was bias from Skuzzy/etc.
