Discussing the usage of the TEA thread

<< < (41/105) > >>

PA0PBZ:
I'm still puzzled by the fact that if you don't like what's going on in a thread you feel the need to report it  :-// Just move on, don't read it, there is enough on the www to enjoy.

This should be of great concern however the larger worry is how to properly manage/protect the forum from the possibility of newbie attacks ?
As it's a darn long time since I was a newbie do we have any reporting constraints on anyone newly signed up ?
We're a newbie until 5 posts are reached but at 5 can we judge a newbie to have sufficient experience here to report those with say 10k posts under their belt ?
That don't seem right to me !

Admin needs to take a good hard look at this IMO.

I can't agree more with that statement.  We say the same thing in ham radio.  Don't like what you hear on the frequency, spin the big knob.

It does seem that there are too many people in the world that just look for something to be offended at.  I am too old to give a darnn what people think about what I say, think, do, the clothes I wear or the hobbies I have.  What I hear is what Charlie Brown hears from his teachers.  Wah, wah, wah, wah.  T, it has always been the squeaky wheel gets the grease.  These people believe if they can shout you down, then they are right.

100% and there is a chance Solomon was sucked in.
Those that had seen this BS before claimed the woke had won which caused some offense to mods however they need properly analyze where the complaints originated from and if those that made them were sufficiently preengaged with the forum to have any right to do so.

gnif seems to have logged out now and he should as the sun is now up in Oz and he needs sleep on recent comments and present them to other admin for consideration.
