No, the people who should be paying PPRUNE (or at least thanking them) are those pilots who now have the freedom of information it provides to help them prevent making the mistake of coming to HK, and in particular CX. In the pre-internet days, it was almost impossible to really find out if you were about to sink into the abyss. Now, even though some of it is shrill, the facts float to the top and most people can discern them. CX management lamely thinks they can 'manage' the truth. The truth is what is burying they and their dysfunctional regime. (Yammer is useless and is exactly what you have described. The management couldn't care less what we say on Yammer. PPRUNE is a different matter entirely).
