[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by ACL Fan</i> <br /><br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Fergus</i> <br /><br />It's time for the rivet counters and the flamers to grow up, get with the program or get out![/quote] <br /> <br />Hold on a second here. <br /> <br />How come it's okay for the kids to post totally-off topic material on the board but you'd like to exclude "rivet counters,' who post material actually associated with the hobby? <br /> <br />Isn't that unfair? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I really believe Fergus meant the "RIVET COUNTERS" who have no tolerance for deviation from the prototype. I think anyone whose been in a club has encounterd these folks and they can take the fun out of the hobby for everyone. Having said that, please remember this, not all rivet counters are created equal. Many are very respectful of others and utilize constructive criticism to teach rather than destroy ones confidence in their work. I don't know if you're a RIVET COUNTER or not, but you certainly sound like you would be one that would teach.[:)][:)] <br />As far as flamers go, if they set out to intentionally cause hard feelings by posting responses that cause problems like this, I think all would agree when I say, thats destructive and shouldn't be tolerated. This hasn't been a good day for anyone here so I say this, lets put this behind us and start tomorrow with a fresh out look, DEAL![:)]
