This place has turned into flame warriors

Frankly the board would be great if the repeat rule violators would get a nice long vacation. The threads get locked for a reason and the morons just start the same thread with the same topic over again.

I'm going to try to give Dale a call in the next day or two. I have a proposal for him.

I truly want to help and I  think Dale maybe could use some help here, at least with the forum.

He could use the help. You're not it.

I would find it comical if someone who violates the rules daily also moderates the board.

Arlo, who are the ICOM invaders? There's only one other person I know of here that is a member of ICOM. And I'm pretty they've been on this forum for a long time before ICOM began.

I have questions... When did the International Council of Museums start invading and why did it/they get banned?

ICOM is short for icecreamonmars.com.

Hi, Mano

 

[perdue3]

It's pretty terrible. The O'Club used to be personal posts about non-aviation or aviation. I especially loved posts about other video games. In the past, I would have started a thread about Company of Heroes 3 and its big announcement today. But now, it's just the same 20 people spouting BS about politics with no filter or moderating. A big reason why I do not come to the forum very often, now. Not to mention, of the 20, 15 have no clue what they are talking about.

What's to stop you from creating those threads? I mean just because there's other threads?

15 people are about all that are usually online in total of the whole forums.

It's not like anybody has to read threads that they don't care for. The people that are going around and around saying the same things over and over again, well I don't get that. Doesn't bother me though .

One thing that maybe some people don't think about is that this forum used to be massively popular. Before the heavy moderation.

About 800 people joined my website within a couple of weeks. The heavy moderation here is what drove most people away back then.

So if all you care about is having a small little niche place, then that's what you got with the moderation.

In my opinion the place was way more vibrant and interesting when things were allowed to play out.

I realized this is a business but look at it. It's not much of a business right now is it?

And I like Dale and I like the game. I loved these forums back in the day. It was an exciting time for the game too. But things don't stay the same. A lot of people have moved on.
