Sorry folks but I do not know how to move the thread to where Noe has indicated. Perhaps Peter will do so if deemed appropriate.
I can move the thread to the off topic thread. However it is not a trivial decision; some factors need to be considered:
I fully agree with Noe above but the only solution I am currently offering is a suggestion that people stick to aviation topics in Hangar Talk I don’t think this issue has come up before significantly since EuroGA started.
Given that it is easy to ignore a thread, I see little need to ban discussions like this.
So personally, I would prefer it if they just remained.
This is different from moving individual posts from otherwise aviation related threads to the “off topic” thread. These posts can derail threads and make them useless, and ignoring them does not help because the discussion, once off track, rarely recovers.
So I would say the way it is now (move posts, leave off-topic threads, ban stuff that can only be toxic / – don’t mention the war Brexit) is about right
Just my thoughts.
I agree with Cobalt
I think I had better stick to simple things like my C172!
