August 4, 201114 yr Wow, can't believe my thread was locked... Whatever... I came back to this site after a rough start based on the feedback asking me to stay, and then my thread gets locked? Wow, I give up... The final poster said my thread was useless, and it was locked... Certainly my thread was innocuous, especially compared to others still active. I was just trying to share part of my day in real-world ops on the NG.... I truly had wanted to share my 1500+ hours thus far on the NG to those who were interested, but this forum keeps showing its ugly side. It is certainly not a very user friendly place! 737Guy KEWR CERTIFICATES AND RATINGS Type Rating: Boeing 737NG Capt Thompson - My opinions and views are those of my own, and not of my employer or the APA or ALPA.
August 4, 201114 yr I think It was locked, as your short thread had Trolling properties to it, but I could be wrong. Paul Heaney - CYKF

August 4, 201114 yr Yes, thread-locking often has to do with the behavior of the follow-on trolls, not the original poster. Alan Ampolsk"Ah, Paula, they are firing at me!"-- Saint-Exupery
August 4, 201114 yr It probably was locked because it sounded a bit like "I'm flying an NG and you are not, Nanananannana!!". In conjunction with all the spam going on at the moment that didn't go down too well with the powers that be. Don't worry about it. I'm sure people will appreciate your insights if you deliver them a bit differently.
August 4, 201114 yr Most likely the responses that got it locked. I am sure PMDG and more importantly the FS community would like to tap your 1500+ hours of experience. I know I for 1 would. Cheers! Richie Walsh
August 4, 201114 yr For what it's worth I thought the way it was locked was rude *IF* it was directed at the original post.If it was directed at all the other fluff, then it wasn't that rude. AJ Pongress
August 4, 201114 yr Guys, look at all the constant nonsense the Avsim moderators have been dealing with here for the last 24 hours. Personally, I'd be brandishing the ban-hammer for some of the shenanigans going on here lol. It's the users who, right now, are making this a rather tense place. Not the moderators.

That is not actually true, is it? Even you agreed it was a botched attempt at humor. And guess what, this thread is just as pathetic. Paul Smith.

August 4, 201114 yr Author Guys, certainly didn't mean for it to be a ha, ha, I'm flying the real thing at all... If it came across that way, I'm truly sorry... Paul - go learn to actually fly something rather than play pilot on your PC.

August 4, 201114 yr You need a PMDG-NGX-Release-Day type rating. Not a good day for posting. Just take it easy and come back in a few days
