If ever I saw a NG that needs to be moderated, it's this it. It could be
interesting reading, if posters stuck to the Title, but the nutcases have
rendered it worthless. Once welfare goes broke and people have to work for a
living, maybe it'll take care of itself!

If I ever saw an imbecile that needed to repeat third grade English,
you this it is that. Join the blue and red forums.

This group is all but dead. All there is left to do is the last person to
turn out the lights.
The beginning of the end happened whenever trolls were encouraged to stay
around because they were slightly on topic. I now check in only to go on to
my other groups, quickly.

I agree with regret, we are all victims of ignorant vandals. I do not so
much miss the topical posts as I do the intelligent and respectful exchanges
of thought we used to enjoy here.
I do want to wish the old bunch of frequent contributors and now just
lurkers a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and comfortable New Year
with many
Happy Landings.

Bzzzzzzt. The end began when you and dozens of others decided MxManiac
was worth arguing in circular flight patterns with. The rest was
mopup.

"Ditto" Couldn't agree more Jim. Just a quick check for me and
move on. I guess in the back of my mind, I hope this group will come
back. Wishful thinking on my part.
Merry Christmas Jim to you and yours

Circular most definitely but more precisely a death spiral.

No. The kook/s get tired of the nonresponse and move on to annoy other
groups.
Meanwhile the aviation posts sneak in under the kook radar :-)
Merry Christmas to all the pilots out there

Wrong, when it comes to me being one of the ones that repeatedly went around
with him.
I responded very infrequently to the troll, but rather lobbied others to
discontinue any responses to him. It didn't work.

I noticed mx had come back for a few more posts, in the last week or so. I
blocked him, again.
Yet, a poster or two felt they had to respond. Again....
They never learn. I blocked them, too.
