History is bound to repeat itself.What you posted was the downfall of the original SubTalk and that was moderated. Here being non-moderated was a great experiment but has in the end failed. This is why I enjoy fully moderated boards with set of rules, add sponsored. Cruise Critic I have gotten a lot of very good information to get value for my cruise dollar. Shame if you ask me and you didn't so Paul IAWTP 100%! |

Re: Ban Terrapin Station, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Tue Mar 3 14:20:23 2015. While I agree with your disgust at some of the less than desirable activities that often happen on this forum, I think it would be better to remain since like many others on the forum who’ve a working knowledge of the aspects of our hobby through actual employment in the industry you can make positive contributions which would be difficult if not impossible to refute. I too, am annoyed at many of the rantings of the individual in question but due to my progressively responsible experience in the transit industry, defy him to be able to successfully challenge whatever I may post. |

He's always moving around the capital letters, without any apparent rhyme nor reason.That's hardly indicative of mental illness. It's just an odd quirk, of the sort everybody has one. I think he has Dissociative Personality Disorder. Again, proff? People who are mentally ill face considerable stigma, and this problem is not helped by people declaring: "Oh, that guy's an asshole— he must be mentally ill. That guy in the news commit a mass murder and is white so he must have been mentally ill." Terrapin is an asshole, yes. We all know as much. However, I have yet to see any evidence that he is mentally ill, and conflating assholery and mental illness doesn't do any favours to the people who actually are mentally ill. |

Re: Ban Terrapin Station, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Tue Mar 3 14:20:23 2015. It was not a new thread, and this is the second time recently that a revival of an old thread has caused widespread confusion. One change that Larry could make, which would be entirely "content neutral", would be to block any attempt to reply to a post that was more than, say, ten days old. |

Since when do threads/topics/issues become irrelevant after 10 days? There's nothing wrong with necroposting as long as you are doing it for a good, decent reason. The main problem is with people NOT LOOKING AT THE DATE of the posts they are replying to. It's a USER problem, not a functionality issue. |

The difference is, at airliners.net, the post still appears on the main board (they don't have a "reef"). There's a lock icon on the post.And of all times, none of the posts on the first page over there are locked at this time. I guess if anyone wants to scroll through the pages, they can find an example (the most common reason is an ongoing thread where there are too many replies (the threshold seems to be around 250 or so), so the moderators will lock it, and create a new thread with "Part 2 (or 3 or 4 or whatever)". I think the MH 370 threads are currently on part 75 (!) |

Honestly, Paul, I can't blame you for leaving, many others have done the same thing for the same reason. Even Trevor Logan left this board for good. In this case, it was nothing more than a stupid necropost from someone who should have known better. Thanks for your contributions to this board, you will be missed.As for the negative responses to Paul in this thread, you should all be looking at yourselves in a mirror, right about now.
