Default Lame Post Button. Help a Brothas out.

FG Crew---

YO! Quick forum policy pop-in.

As you may or may not have seen, on the bottom of each thread posted in our forums, there is a "<-- Lame Post" button. This button is there for a reason, and when it's pushed, it alerts our staff of a potential lame thread that needs attention. When we get these alerts, we review the report immediately.

For gawd's sake, please use this if a situation warrants it. This is not like pulling the fire alarm in high school, it's more of a "hey, this post is retarded and it's pissing me, and probably more people off, please have a look".

As you know, FG is growing like a weed, and we're stoked you're all enjoying the place! It is our goal and promise to stand by our founding principals of keeping our community drama and BS free, educational, friendly, and fun. With the large number of posts we receive on a daily basis, it's tough to keep up on every little nook and crannie, and we rely on you guys as our second set of eyes. We appreciate your help!

Thanks a bunch folks!! Appreciate the continued support of FG!

All the best--

~FlyingGiants Staff

Default Re: Lame Post Button. Help a Brothas out.

I "disapeared" for awhile to clear out of Tucson and move to Reno, NV. Traded incredible heat for snow all over the place, everything's white here. May change the floats for skis on a bird or two. Hardest part may be flying with gloves. Sure is pretty here tho, no dust. Didn't really know where to post this general info, but if 10,000 + sorties; "madmax" is in the neighborhood as he is here, he'll fix it. Sure enjoyed the Tucson Shootout 2007 and some of them real young hot shots. gunner Mike
