I'm watching Jeopardy. The category is worst Madonna songs. "This one from 1987 is terrible".
RE: Will A.net Return To Its Former Glory?
I've been around for a while. Seen the good and the bad. Was it better before? Depends if the mods at that time liked you or not. It at times could be like you were back in high school, if you were in the in group all was well, if not you were the fat kid waiting to get picked last in gym class.

RE: Will A.net Return To Its Former Glory?
I remember the good old days. We used to have funny threads in the non av section. If I am right I still can not discuss certain topics or else ill be banned. I am mainly a lurker and posts on certain subjects.

Another way to improve airliners.net is by making it possible to contact those who make photo comments and identify them if they're members.
Since you took the liberty to edit my own list, I might as well add a few more names:
* Adam Wright
* Ander Aguirre
* Anthony Jackson
* Bailey
* Darren Howie
* Felix Gottwald
* Ismael Jorda
* Javier F. Bobadilla
* Jeffwell
* Joe Pries
* John Richard Thomson
* Peter Unmuth
* Tim de Groot
* Vik S.
* Wilco737
| Quoting vikkyvik (Reply 47): No. To be on that list, you have to add me to that list. Here, I'll do it for you: I think more photos by these photographers will definitely make airliners.net even more glorious : * Adam Wright * Ander Aguirre * Anthony Jackson * Bailey * Ismael Jorda * Javier F. Bobadilla * Jeffwell * Joe Pries * Tim de Groot * Vik S. There we go. Now all has been made right, and the world can continue turning. |

If we're onto serious ways to reclaim supposed glory, then yes, I fully agree. That's why I always sign my comments.

Frankly, I really don't care whether you agree or not. This website is far better
off not having ridiculous, one sided moderators and posters whom shall not be named. Live in the present.

Hi Falcon84, I had no idea you were back in the forums!
Don't expect to see me around that much (if at all) -- the contact link should still work, though.

Well, that's a fundamental difference between you and me. You want to eliminate those you don't like. I'm happy to talk it out.

| Quoting N1120A (Reply 57): |
That's rich! I have never advocated anyone's banning or expulsion or deletion of posts. I was commenting that I am glad that DM owns this site now. DM are fair, and the unfair previous people and mods are no longer here.
I didn't advocate it or demand it, but I'll take it!
It was people like you and the pre 2007 mods who would immediately ask for deletion of posts if someone had an opinion that was even remotely conservative or didn't agree with certain political sensibilities.

Right. Because you are aware of how often one suggested a deletion then.
Of course, you also think ANCFlyer is "liberal"

You two behave almost exactly the same.

Yeah, you liberals always spout stuff and when someone replies you guys go straight to the delete button, or worse, complained to the pre 2007 mods. We all knew the routine. Spare us.
Oh yeah, the Alaskan tough guy macho sergeant. That guy was some "conservative". Of course to the left, many think Obama is conservative!
Falcon84? Lol. Yeah, right. You and he are soulmates ideologically. Along with others of that same vein.
No one censors or attempts to censor like the left.....

That list is mostly made up of airline pilots who happen to enjoy photography. I believe pilots make the best aviation photographers as they're always flying and have more panoramic views than the rest of us. The most spectacular contrails and aerial views pix are usually taken by pilots.

This is one guy to the left of center who would not dream of hitting the delete button. I am sure it has been done to me more than once. I would not belittle myself by doing it. I can dish it out, and I can take it. I leave it to the moderators to police the site. Not my function.

Reason two why my activity has dropped off significantly. I was put on a 30 day suspension a few years back while I slept. Yup... I wrote a few comments almost 24 hours before all this happened. The 'crew member' warned me, warned me again and then suspended me for 30 days all without me knowing about it. I had no knowledge of any of this until I got home from work the next day and read my emails. My point here.. A little common sense here. You must allow the person the chance to repent or rebuff what they are being accused of. A warning, then if you violate the rules after then warning email was sent....then yea.

I myself refrained for one year because of a suspension. I used the word infantile in a reply. Bingo, I said screwo. I got a week, I took a year. Things seem better these days, more adult treatment.
