It really is not about trying to hide anything. I am usually pretty easy to get along with, and I try to make my opinions without forcing them on anyone. You can read my 1400 post, and I think you will find that I am pretty easy going, and mainly just like to gab about Model Airplanes with the fine folks here on RCU. Occasionally Hoss will get me riled up a bit, but I was on Hoss's side during his run for EVP, and I tend to agree with some of his points more than I disagree. I hold no ill will towards anyone here. My idea to clean the AMA Forum is simply that I would like to see this forum become a better resource or FAQ regarding AMA. There is no north and south to me! Just various AMA Members from various parts of the U.S who belong to the same organization and should find better ways to express opinions, and show respect towards one another. It is so easy to sit on a keyboard and degrade someone you do not know personally, try and make them feel inferior, or make some snide remark about where someone else calls home. I would like to think that most of us would probally get along fine if we all belonged to the same Flying Club, and we would probally express ourselves a bit differently towards one another. It all boils down to that I really do care about the directions that this hobby takes, and if I see something that kind of looks like a stain on the hobby IMO, I would like to try and do something to change it. I view this forum as something that could have been good, but has fallen to something very ugly and unbecomming for people who share a common interest. If this was a sailing ship, a mutiny would have occurred shortly after setting to sea, and the captain and first mates would have done walked the plank. Where we really screwed up was that the ones who walked the plank were the only ones who knew how to read a compass!
