Spin Zone Change

[Greebo]

While Pilots of America does allow for political discussion, we are primarily an aviation related website. In order to further present our "public face" as such, we have blocked the ability to view the "Spin Zone" forum to unregistered users and to users who are only partly registered.

This will prevent web-crawlers from searching Spin Zone topics and making us look like a political forum on the search engines, and restrict the ability to read those discussions (which, lets face it, sometimes do get a little embarassingly heated) to those who are truly interested in being members here.

Please let Greebo know if you experience any difficulty in accessing the Spin Zone.

Thank you,
The Management

Excellent decision, Chuck. My compliments to the MC.

 

[flyingcheesehead]

You da man, Chuck. Excellent move.

 

[tdager]

You da man, Chuck. Excellent move.

I concur!

 

[Dave Siciliano]

Totally agree Chuck.

Had someone recently search using my name for a business reason and saw all sorts of aviation board posts. I don't think a lot of folks realize how much of this is available to inquiring eyes.

Best,

Dave

Dave, that's why I don't use my full name on here.

Ummmmm. What everybody else said

I guess since the spin zone has been running relatively trouble free for over 6 weeks and that the users were not giving the MC any issues to deal with, the MC had to invent their own issue for the spin zone

Fine by me, whatever.

 

[Tarheel Pilot]

Fine by me as well.

Of course.

Justification of our own existance is crucial!

Chuck,

You must work in IT.

 

[AdamZ]

Chuck, Excellent decison!! Good job.

 

[KennyFlys]

Good decision!

But, for the non-pilots who would come here strictly to argue politics, one has to consider something I've mentioned before. The reason I like the discussion here rather than your usual political site... the very nature of being a licensed pilot, with or without advanced ratings, makes one an achiever on one level or another.

This is true even for the pilot who argues for the left. You can't be a pilot without having worked hard to earn the ticket.
