Hey guys,

This statement appears on the very first page of PPRuNe:

"As these are anonymous forums the origins of the contributions may be opposite to what may be apparent. In fact the press may use it, or the unscrupulous, to elicit certain reactions."

Recently we have had quite a few people (like Roncha the plonka and haysoos). People like this appear everywhere on all sorts of forums (dear I say these sort of people roam around childrens chatrooms too - for other purposes). They make statements that they know will spark of rows or they lure people into falsehood.

Please do not fall for them or reply to them in anyway, be it a joke, serious or whatever...coz this my friends, is their fuel.

I'm starting to think that Luke Davies post in the Private Flying forum has just this in mind. Troll, then get flamed in return. Result, a nice collection of posts to show how "unreasonable" private fliers are.... http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/frown.gif

Attention seeking springs to mind...
