Perhaps it would be of benefit for everyone to chill out a bit and look at the basic issue here ,then look at how the issue could have been handled.
Yes the person who posted the initial thread should have checked to see if their question was covered in another thread,but equally the moderator could have simply posted a reply similar to "there is an Emirates forum which might answer your question" without the sarcasm which I think is what really gets up peoples noses.
Nobody is perfect and everyone,yes even the moderators make mistakes,it is how those mistakes are dealt with which will shape the future of PPruNe.
PPruNe is an excellent resource for people working in,or with an interest in aviation,and I have been treated with a great deal of respect by the members here despite the fact that I don't work in the industry,nor do I want to but I hope my posts are relevant and courteous and I think that is what everyone should try and strive for.
Merry Christmas to all Cabin Crew and in fact any "Prooners"
