Beagle Total Posts: 13,356 (4.15 posts per day)
Al R
Total Posts: 861 (3.58 posts per day)
By my reckoning seldom, by the time Al reaches Beagles post total he will be on a daily post rate of about 45 and will get there in about 5 years.
Now that is some going. At least Beagle is Aircrew and as such has something worthwhile to contribute.
Ooh has anybody mentioned ships and the blasted Vulcan?
and the other who starts and contributes to so many threads in his quest to reach his 1000 post in a year target it would be laughable if it was not so sad

"Now that is some going. At least Beagle is Aircrew and as such has something worthwhile to contribute."
Who the fcuk are you to classify posts by non aircrew as not worthwhile contributions? Your own are hardly earthshattering.
Are you aircrew, are you serving.........or even ex serving or just a lurking wannabee who cannabee?

Samuraimatt seems to have a fascination with "who people are" and what they do.
"Who are you?" is a very common question asked by him and depending on the answer, will treat said person with perceived deference or not.
From what I can gather, Samuraimatt is very young and only recently joined the RAF as a mover. As such I think we all need to provide him our names, ranks and serial numbers in order for him to ascertain whether a particularly poster is of a higher rank.
Cheers

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
Shack, thanks for that. It satisifes any stupid urge I have to see whether PamuaPratt has added anything while. Now I can just lie down until the urge passes

Whirls.....Whatever he is, he is not a Mover, he is no way smart enough. It has been suggested by a good chum of mine that he may be a Loadmaster at the secret Wiltshire air base but even Loadmasters have minimum standards.
I can tell you for sure that samuraipratt is one or all of the following:
A Walt
A Troll
A Wannabe
A total Arrse
Can anyone think of anything that I may have missed.
I suppose I may now be reprimanded by the Mods for a personal attack on a fellow PPruner but I guess I'll just have to live with that.
I am thinking of joing the RAF as a Movements operator amongst other things and I am looking at what I could do when I leave. Nothing like planning ahead

What ever guise he posts in he is way to smart for most us on here, his ability to "hook" all and sundry is a true gift which those that berate are simply envious off................and post 21 of this thread is such an insight

I was wondering what “Military Aircrew – PPruNers” really hate and why?
2. Ex-mil pilots who brown nose their management and backstab their newfound civvy colleagues.
3. Biz Jet pilots who post using their real name under the assumption that it makes them holier than the rest of the plebs.
4. Posters who whinge about posts like these.

You can't be a real pilot, you didn't put beer and flying on your PP

There was a keg of beer that mysteriously disappeared off the crash site.

Agent Smelly,
Your post is malicious and wretched and posted with a reckless disregard for the truth. Your defences in publishing against this non public figure are minimal to the point of non existant. That though, would be an issue for the plaintiff in this case, and if it were me that your nasty attack was aimed at, then I would certainly drag you through the courts for it. It is a missinformed and unjustified attack on the reputation of another party. It would unquestionably injure him in respect to his position within his company, his standing, his profession and by allowing it to continue, the company which publishes this messageboard is also exposing itself to civil action (although my brain might now be a little rusty on this aspect of publishing and the law so I am willing to be corrected).
It is my understanding that the person in question no longer posts here, but in the event that your post dissapears, I have grabbed a screenshot if it and if he wishes to use it in any legal action, then he is more than welcome to it. I am also happy to put my name to a statement which affirms its impact on me and which might assist him. You make an allegation with regards to the other party publishing under his real name. At least he has the courage and sense of integrity to do so.
To the board owners;
Unless you stamp down hard on this type of post and poster and the trolling that seems to stifle your bandwidth at the moment (and are seen to being doing it), then your business is going to suffer. No pro likes to see a.n other from within the same ranks abused like this and with such impunity too. It shatters user confidence and it smashes the credibility of your brand. Do you want to be THE place to go for informed iceberg insight, or do you want to be somewhere that will become known simply for mud slinging on a grand scale, which is eventually going to continue to affect traffic anyway?
I am guilty of diluting the ethos of this board simply by not being aircrew and that is just one of the reasons why I don't post as much (yes, even with a post count as prolific as mine, it has dropped!). But the reason I do like hanging around is that the comment can be barbed (but stylish and subtle), erudite and amusing, and many of the characters I did get along with in my career were aircrew and other failed Rocks anyway. I accept that this place needs have less of the likes of me in general in order to prosper.. so perhaps you need to start a non aircrew military section?
Cheers.

Al R, have you swallowed a legal dictionary? I think a non-aircrew military board would be good (imagine, you might see threads like 'pictures of a/c towing tractors from the old boston road', or 'payd sucks'), however you'd probably find the lords of the air would creep in every now and again to find out how the airfarce realy works...
