    Does anyone know if there is a thread or page somewhere on Flytalk that deals with the level of conduct required by posters to Fly Talk?

    I am interested to read it if it exists but cant seem to find anything.

    Thx

    I think it was here somewhere ... I really remember something like that - it was a locked thread, not so??

    Ah Thanks Phillip! So point one in that? You state you won't tolerate it, but what are the repercussions?

    Is it just a case of deleting the offending posts or do you do more?

    I just thought the comments that were deleted in the other post are not called for on a forum like this and people making comments like that should not be welcome.

    At the very least people trusted to be moderators should not be talking like that.

    Agreed, people making comments like that should not be welcome, not in a forum, not on a river, not in a pub, nowhere!
