Well, I have to say I saw this coming with how the posts were being lead in the other thread today.
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_9619283/tm.htm
It’s just a glitch, Right? It will be fixed eventually, don’t you think? Boy no patience!
We did have a discussion over in the Classic forum about this,
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_9516200/tm.htm
But no poll because of the way the forum was set up.
I don’t think this would have been such a big deal if it wasn’t for a computer glitch, which I assume will be fixed.
Now, I have to say I respect the Guys that fly today’s pattern, and it’s not about that. But I believe that Classic Pattern Deserves equal recognition and respect for what it is and what it is becoming again.
I’m trying to put my words in a non confrontational manner ,because arguing just doesn’t do any good.
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 9pt">Interesting reading...But before I start I'm neither for or against the Pattern Universe Change...I did vote to take it back to the previous setting as I'm not somebody that like being force feed because yahoos got together and thought it was a good idea and ignored 2/3rds of the Pattern Community... which would be pattern and electric pattern...
So let’s get this straight...I'm a bit stumped with someone apparently posting a recommended change under Classic Pattern, of which I rarely visit. Then all the sudden, we have a majority vote that thinks they are being slighted and unappreciated because it’s not perceived as important or worthy of equal recognition...This is an extremely petty argument...
Change is good. I would have probably been ok with it if asked... How would those that partook in this action like for me to post in the AMA Discussion Forum with those Yahoos and sway a decision to put classic pattern in a Forum called "<span style="color: #0000ff">
Antiques of RC"</span>...Stupid and certainly uncalled for right? I would say yes...
Then why did we do it here and then RCadmin state it was the popular choice...? It's a good thing the US Congressdon't base laws on one State's vote...
This was a RAM JOB, and personally I don't appreciate it being forced on us because of a <span style="color: #ff0000">
<u>minority opinion</u></span> (Majority if you only consider opinions of Classic Pattern posters representing 1/3 of the pattern community)...Secondly, I probably wouldn't be complaining if it didn't get screwed up and was posted in all Pattern Forums regarding the upcoming changes...Which is why I believe there is a push back from some including myself.
This was a cluster from the get go...The icing on the cake is that it screwed a bunch of folks up that enjoyed the forum, and then so said by RCadmin, “it’s because you didn't go back and setup your Forum Subscriptions properly...” Which is incorrect...</span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 9pt">It don't work...So put it back the way it was, run the tests needed before taking it live; and finally, notify all those members of the change by posting the new format in all forum/sub forums affected...
My .02...Off the soap box...
