IO540s thread on leaving the forum
It is good to see a little renewed interest in various topics on PPRuNe.
However it has made me realise one of the reasons I get quite frustrated. There are some very interesting threads about EASA at the momement but I find when I read some of the contributions it is as if people cant be bothered to read, digest or understand what has been said before (on the same thread). The discussion ends up going round in circles covering the same ground. The fact is I think that just ends up detracting from the debate which is a shame and makes the forum less interesting (and more frustrating).
If I could make just one plea which I think would be to the benefit of the forum - it would be that we all at least make some effort to follow the thread.

C'mon people, make an effort to keep up.
Has anyone else noticed that some people just post a message in a thread without reading the preceding mesages and making an effort to understand where the thread is heading?
Not in a thread hijacking way, just as a result of not reading earlier posts on the same subject.

Sorry, this has just swum into focus.
You mean the thread on "Pilots leaving the forum" as posted by IO540 - as opposed to "IO540's thread on leaving the forum", which means something altogether different! It would be a huge shame to lose IO540....
I totally agree about people simply posting their halfpenny worth after reading the 1st post, without reading the following discussion. Simply very boring willy waving.

Anyway, why did IO540 leave the forum?

Having lurked for months, nay years, I'm making my first post to put my name to the petition to stop IO540 from being banned from the forum.
I understand he/she is great and has been bullied and harassed by a bunch of B******s who should be shot/tasered/tagged/forgiven.

As I wandered along a "corridor of power" this afternoon, I heard a story that made me take notice.
Lord Beagle is going to put the EASA guys on the back foot by mentioning the war, and that should make them lift the requirement for IO450 to get new medical.
IO450 should be back with us shortly.
