 |
|
Am I being thick, or should every light hearted, or in much of this group’s, vitriolic response be ended with the words “ do not archive”. Or .”DO NOT ARCHIVE”, or any combination of those letters, either UPPER or lower case?
I have nothing to do with the Matronics, but if it was my web site I would be more than pissed off with all the throw away comments, some funny, and in MANY cases very rude, IF NOT CRUDE comments that do not have “do not archive”.
Having got that off my chest, I shall move on to my second problem.
I am building a 601HD in Britain, but am thinking of signing off from this group because there is more to the world than the USA.
I realise that the US is, and has to be the world’s policeman, but the US is only a small part of the world. PLEASE DO NOT INSULT OR RUBBISH THE REST! MOST OF US ARE ON YOUR SIDE!
This group has, over the last two or three months been a most uncomfortable place for many members. Please try to keep all comments and replies suitable for your children to read.
One or two of the recent ones have been over the top!
GOD, (mine or yours) I feel better to have got that off my chest.

What part of the UK are you living in? I'll rule out Scotland as you said "Britain". Tell us a bit more about the plans for your plane. Engine and Landing gear config would be a good place to start.
We are supposed to put the do not archive statement in the body of the post so that only items of on topic nature will be archived for search purposes. I have to be honest in saying that I have been accused of off topic comments ( I hope not off colour) and often I forget the archive statement.
BTW the archive statement is in the body of this text and the server will not add this post to the archives.

I read the posts every night, but am I missing something ? Where are all these "horrendous off colour over the top " comments people keep referring to????
Is there another forum I don't know about? or a special password to get into the good stuff?
Or maybe Aussies are just banned?
lol
Do Not Archive I guess !

I suspect that it has something to do with the Corelolis Effect...... when a nasty diatribe crosses the equator from north to south, the natural spin is reversed and it becomes a happy missive.
For instance the message,
"Go straight to hell, eat cow dung and die, you gravy sucking pig!" would probably come out in Australia something like this:
"While I disagree with your assessment, I am sure that there is ample room for civilized folks to hold differing opinions. Best wishes..... PS: How are the wife and kids?"
So you can see how the hate emails would be completely different in character when you received them. On the other hand, there tends to be very few cordial emails on the list these days so you probably didn't even notice that they were screened out by your email server.
In order for you to receive this eamil I regret that I will have to make it decidedly negative or it will get reversed into a nasty, insulting message which your server will automatically delete, so here goes.......
I hope your prop flies off and gets stuck up your rear end, you JERK!!!!!
Best Wishes,
Ed Moody II

Funniest damned thing I've read on this forum in a long while. Thank you for the laugh ... and I don't just say that to piss in your pocket.
