Good decision. Rationality prevails.

What grounds would we have for removing this thread? SImply because some people deem the thread to be ''tasteless''. When we start doing that then we are going to be on a very slippery slope that is not going to end well. While some may consider this thread to be ''tasteless'', others do not. So let's play Devil's Advocate here. How about a thread that you start. If somebody views that thread and thinks that it's tasteless should we then remove it as well?? Of course the answer to that is ''no''. This is why we try to make sure that all the actions we take are based on the RCU Community Rules. If this thread breaks the rules set forth in our Community Rules then I would gladly look at taking some kind of action here. But this thread doesn't violate any rules and is nothing more than a harmless April Fool's Day joke.

RE: President Proposes RC Airplane User Fee
Ok guys, time for me to step in here with a warning. RCU has a clear policy that political commentary is not allowed here on RCU. I'm willing to let a little bit slide when things are referring in generic terms such as "them", "they", "those jokers in washington", or other non-specific terms. But if the topic turns and starts talking about any one person, specific group of people, political affiliation, or any other specifics then I'm going to have to start removing posts as they won't be allowed.
And let me clarify now before it's asked: Yes, it's possible to talk about government actions without resorting to political commentary. If some don't know the difference between the two then maybe it's best to not post in this thread!!
Let's keep the political commentary our of the thread so that I don't have to take actions against people here.

Glad its a joke.but at the same time do you see the prices horizion and other arf makers are charging for the planes.I cant shell out 800 or more for a plane.trying to get ypung people into the hobby and theysee the huge entry costs, sure you can buy a piece of foamfrom china not much else.I am learning to fly a electric heli and looked into getting a new and larger one.holy cow.once you get into a 450 electric heli your spending some big bucks. It is such a shame we dont have many kits available.

Problem is some people really think that everything they read on the internet is true and they believe it in their heart and it can cause a lot of problems and hate. Just like the insurance commercial .

We in the Federal Government have no sense of humor that we are aware of.

RE: President Proposes RC Airplane User Fee
This thread is amazing, an April fool joke that has now offended, had political overtones, has people insulting each other and generally has no bearing on the real world of model aircraft, but has been taken seriously by some.
Give us a break Mods, lock it down.

Don’t any of you see through this? This is all part of the greater liberal green agenda! They are trying to move us away from fossil fuels and make us all fly electrics! [>:]
