Correct Zebedie,
Over France this morning a guy calls the agent on guard. Someone says "you're on guard". Said guy then passes ETA, specials, fuel required and requests stand number
"You're on guard" again comes out of the ether and lo he repeats his request ......
So I politely and deliberately slowly said "You are transmitting on guard".
Someone who presumably has read this thread then asks me if I'm the "Guard Police"
And another quips in with "but your transmitting on guard". I told them to grow up and it all went quite.
So I agree that it can be annoying when everyone jumps on someone who does transmit on guard - BUT when there is evidently a MUPPET who is not listening and proceeds to trot out his life history (twice) a gentle reminder is in order. What is unacceptable is for others who think they're some sort of comedian to then start piping up with inane comments.
Your supposed to be Professional pilots for christs sake! Start behaving like one.
