Normally, I avoid these types of controversy. HOWEVER, I need to say to people, such as Camera Guy, whom I was lucky enough to sit with at Catman DO two, IMHO, you are wrong. While I understand the issues of slow modems, etc., I have a cable modem and don't have this problem. Camera Guys' theory would suggest that the quantity of posts should take into account the slowest modem speed of our members. This would penalize me, and my ability to browse a huge amount of posts promptly. I'm sorry if he does not have this ability, by why should that effect those of us that do? MOST IMPORTANTLY, I don't see how this justifys CENSORING what Doc or any other member of flyetalk posts. Censoring is exactly what taking away Docs judgement on what to post or, not to post, does. I for one, do not want anyone deciding what I should or should not read. Respectfully, I reserve the right to make that decision.
This is Randy's board. If anyone has a problem with posting on it, take it to Randy.
IMO, he is the ONLY one who can fix it. Starting flame wars among members, 99% of whom are here for information, is useless and counter productive. In the time it has taken me to write this, I could have browsed 10 topics.
The ultimate solution would be for the "new" board to allow any member to selectively filter all posts from any poster he or she wishes to and in this case, they are a responsible for censoring themselves. This is the way it should be.
All of the above is my personal opinion. I do not intend to insult anyone, and I hope, Camera Guy, who I think of as a friend, will understand my desire to make my opinion known.
