You have to admit it would have been funny with all those Kurt Tank jokes and Spitdweeb whines and the inevitable cry of perk the P-51D and Spitfires.

End the awful barbaric channel one talk, let us all agree to confine our conversations to nothing but the highest intellectual discourse.

I look forward to debating the merits of Xunzi and Mencius's take on the concept of human nature, perhaps followed by a delightful romp through Elizabethian-poetry.



SShhhh! We don't Socrates to come back!

or do we?

SKurj,
  Personally, I squelch "1" most of the time, so the topics of discussion there remain for the most part, mystical.
  However, yet again "lonerangr" as has been his style lately began another volley of politcal spew on OUR channel, "2" .
  As well, much of his language is reprehensible, and I don't understand why HTC hasn't revoked his flying priveleges under the Terms Of Service agreement.
  Squelching him does no good, either, as he ruffles so many feathers that even the quietest of Rooks begin blasting him for his soapbox preaching.
    I think along with HTCs liberal "free flying" policy should come some sort monitoring of what's going on there, especially as of late.
  If not, the ability to squelch Channel 2 would be an alternative of sorts, although it'd be cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

Why can't it remember your squelch settings like it does your head positions?

I would love to not have to go through my normal log on squelching routine of individuals I know I will never want to hear from including channel 1...

We NEED members of the community,respected members,to be possibly be appointed 'monitors' with minor powers such as the ability to remove someones radio rights for say,30 mins/hour,this is one thing I miss from AW,was nice having 'Staff' about,the swearing is out of control,the racist talk IS out of control,and the political stuff is out of control,either get rid of channel 1 altogether,OR have players police the radio channels,it shouldnt be down to HT and the others,they have a lot on their hands etc,its a player created problem,so its up to US to stamp it out.
People need to grow up.

There are a select few that have been bestowed moderator powers but they seem more concerned with just policing language instead of idiots like Goopie and lonerngr.
