Forum Axeman

Its in the "Aircraft" forum. it was about aircraft. what's the problem?

It was locked because it wasnt about models? Are they going to lock the aircraft trivia quiz next?

And im sure there were a couple posts about models in that thread.

I think it should need 2 mods to lock a thread. One to initiate. one to approve.

edit: Tim posted same time as me. One of those "Borderline offensive" comments was me. I admit that.

Dear Stikpusher,

We (and I stress "we") locked the "Redtails" thread for a couple of reasons. We had let the thread go because there were some mentions of CGI versus physical models. However, the discussion quickly spread to other topics. Also, there were some posts with images and comments that were borderline offensive. 

We understand that threads will meander, and so long as the majority of it is about modeling, we will let those go. The "Redtails" thread was about seeing the movie and only tangentially touched on modeling.

If you wish to create a thread about CGI modeling vs. physical models, please by all means do so.

If you wish to discuss this further, please feel free to email me directly.

Best,

TK

True...I didn't even realize it was locked. Can't there be a military subject related forum or something? If I recall, there is a thread that is discussing Military Books floating around out there some where....not to dime it out, of course, just making a point that there are similar posts out there that haven't met with the same fate. Since a lot of the modelers here do have a high interest in military subjects, why not enable a forum to discuss said non-modeling military subjects or pop culture military references?
