thierry laurent Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Gents... Please... Is it possible to lock this thread? Anything that could be useful has already been written. mozart and R Palimaka 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously? We were just kidding and I don't see anyone taking the color comment seriously. Yes, COVID-19 is deadly, but bringing the child's death into this thread wasn't needed. Nobody is making fun of COVID-19 and also nobody was taking the color comment as seriously as the Mustang Putty discussion. De-stressing takes on many different forms, humor is one of them. I think that is all for this thread. MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the most tedious argument* in all of modelling is back! *The colour of the cowling on Voss' Dr.I may or may not be even more tedious. I'll start a thread about the colour of PC10. And another for PC12. I think that when a moderator is joining in with the handbags on a thread, it is 100% time to lock it, throw away the key and poke your own eyes out.

I think that is all for this thread. Threads like this cause the staff no little amount of work, without going through it I can guess there's posts edited and hidden, just to keep the peace, keep the thread on track, to provide discussion and information, even when it's diametrically opposed, and if we can avoid any heated arguments we will, I hid a thread last week, two posts in, it wasn't relevant to the site and you could tell which way it was going to go. I was called a Grouch, so I thought it best to explain myself, everything in context, and Don said he was bored, not stressed. How's about everyone show some self-discipline, and only post if they have some relevant information to the topic in the title, that way we won't have to lock the thread. D.B.

Juggernut Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 Well, since I'm the one who originated the thread in the first place...I pretty much thought it exhausted itself... I have nothing more to add and everyone can read my position on the topic. I won't post anything further after this...stick a fork in it cause it's done. thierry laurent and D.B.

vince14 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 This thread has been nothing but tiresome tub thumping since two individuals with opposing views got involved and both decided their opinion was the absolute gospel on the subject. Mods should've locked it a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both individuals have knowledge on the subject, there must be something modellers could have learned from this Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
