special forum section
« on: February 24, 2013, 10:56:19 PM »
I have been around for about 6 years and i have attended a few memorial flights for members that have passed away.  I think it would be great if there was a forum where members would post a thread about a player that has gone on to better life.  a locked thread with the name of all the players that are gone but not forgotten and a sub forum of those who wish to remember the player.

Oh a wise guy huh? I don't think it's something that has an appropriate amount of numbers.

No.

I like the idea, but ultimately, somebody will come along and smear taint on the walls of the thread, or start an argument or be disrespectful.
Once that has happened to a thread, an edited post and subsequent replies can't be removed. They're attached to that thread, and subsequently the person whose name is also attached to it.

Let those fallen be left to the sacred halls within our hearts.

a detailed medical narrative accompany the post.

I have to - 1, only because it would serve as a soft target for ridiculous and disrespectful trolls.

It is a nice idea, but someone would screw it up.

I like the idea as long as it would be heavily regulated by HTC.  Absolutely ZERO Tolerance for ANYTHING that could even be considered disrespectful in any way.  Only under these conditions would I give a +1

This is probably something that could be done on the wiki rather than their business forums.

As we've recently seen, HTC has the power to act and will if they need to. That being said, I'm sure they don't like to but it's something that I still support.
