Post Escape commitee

How do you get out of Pprune?
I am willing to chair the escape commitee.

Yesterday I saw a thread transferred from Rumours and News abot a Canadian pilot who flew his Cessna into a TV mast in poor vis.
Another subscriber (Exozpat) had expressed zero sympathy for such a foolish maneouvre and was subsequently "flamed".

I of course being as contentious as ever, sided with him and quoted a case of Darwinism also stating that it was this sort of poor airmanhip gave a bad impression of General Aviation.
Perhaps a bit harsh but life and aviation can be like that.

Enter Capt Pprune and his lacky who then told myself and Exozpat that our views were not welcome and as we obviously not true pilots we should go elsewhere and barring any more postings with a silly little padlock.

I have repied with a polite e.mail direct graciously accepting his offer.

In the meantime another Canadian based subscriber put another posting up about the gadger who hit the mast demanding that this should be discussed.

Within the hour both threads were spirited away and I have not had the courtesy of a reply or being removed from what I consider as a too heavily censored list.

Mr Pprune is selling his list to advertisers on the number of subscribers and hits it receives so I really do not want to be associated with this anymore.

When do we start tunneling?
