Within a few days Rumours & News starts to fill up with "how do I get an upgrade?" and "Is a PA-28 a better aircraft to learn in than a C-152", Tech Log gets questions like "what is an APU?" and so on.
So...?
The topics take up one line, on the topic index, no matter if you close it or not, unless you delete it all together.
So what is the point? If the topic is misplaced it will die out anyway and soon disappear.
If not perhaps it's because people have a genuine interest in communicating about the topic in question. Isn't that what PPruNe is about - communicating?
There are lots of topic in R&N that is neither a rumour nor news e.g.
Thanks ATC. Shouldn't that be in "Aircrew Notices (Misc)".
