I dunno who HTC put in charge of muting people....

but they seriously need to boot these ******** <- see expletive deleted.

I got muted over a year and half ago for no vulgarities, and got muted again when I came back and said "why did I get muted?" while the other party sat there happily typing away without being muted.

I no longer type on channel 1 or channel 2 except for very rare instances...

I can type on squad channel whatever I want... atleast the guys I fly with don't have problems that would be resolved with some Preperation-H. (not saying Nim doesn't have problems... but they can be resolved with a baseball bat :) )

I just use the initials "GD" as in "GD Niki hit me from 800 yards!" and never had a problem.

Been there done that got warned. Shortly after I got warned there was a pissing match on ch #1, I wasn't involved, but it went on some time unhindered.

I've also been warned for FEK. Which is quite different to the other word. Just to put it in perspective the BBC find no issue in using this word in prime time family comedies.

GD may be 'offensive' to some people, and people might be confused about what Fek is - but do either of this classify as vulgarities? I don't think so.

I can take the warnings, but when theres a pissing match between a couple of dweebs going on unhindered questions have to be asked.

Uh, what about /.squelch 1. Or are you talking about VOX?

On a different but related note, I recently discovered that you can tune your VOX channel to a specific person - regardless of team. You can chat away at them and they can do nothing about it except listen to you or log. True?

Rude is a nice feller, Steve.  Indeed, all of the 13th TAS guys are cool.   I must have had ch 1 squelched since I missed the exchange.

I suspect guys are squelched more frequently for disruptive behavior rather than profantity.  Profanity can be funny. :)  Imagine if we heard Drex say "expletive ..."  Now that would be funny since Drex never says anything other than ( or good kill).

Imagine, the best stick (Drex) in Aces High and he never feels the need to comment on how/why he lost a fight. :)

We could all take a page from that book, eh? :)

Yep, there at the last one - even saw the blessed event when Nimitz changed Drex's stick setup so that the trigger mapped to "bail out." :)

My remarks concerning drex referred to keyboard remarks, not his actual vocalizations.

Upset when shot down (not your fault... the uber niki's fault)... upset when muted (not your fault... the moderator’s fault) Let me guess... lining up to sue McDonald's for being over-weight? Take some personal responsibility for typing something you shouldn't have and deal with it instead of once again blaming it on someone else being inept. Don't point the finger and look for 'well they didn't or they said..' If you typed something you shouldn't have... deal with it.

Unfortunately, right now my PC sits in the middle of my apt where everyone can hear... nothing really bothers me... but my 9-year old daughter doesn't need to be hearing some of the smack. And yes... I do have headphones now but unplug them while running around at times.  Thank goodness for the squelch, I just wish I could permanently squelch people.
