I have found that some people have a very different view of the value of the Rotary Wing Forum than I do.
For me it is an opportunity to learn from others and to share the things I have learned about gyroplanes.
For me it is a place to share the joys and challenges of gyroplanes.
When people ask legitimate question I enjoy trying to answer them and learn from the process.
I find I learn from defending my opinion and I may change my opinion.
My opinions have changed over the years in part because of things I have learned here.
It is not a game to me and I find the games some people play here counterproductive and unpleasant.
My good friend Stan Foster suggested to me that after two failed attempts at communication there is no point in continuing the discourse and it is just feeding the troll.
If I have already answered a question twice and the “new” question is clearly just a part of their game I see no reason to respond.
If they can’t stay on track I see no reason to continue to respond.
I see no reason to respond to gossip.
There are a few people who I don’t respond to because of my experience with their attitude.
Because of my poor memory and how unimportant their game is to me I sometimes forget.
Some people here make things up faster than I can address them as though it was a counterpoint to what I posted.
If I post a direct quote from the FAA it is exactly that.
It is not my place to interpret it further or defend the FAA’s legal position.
Demanding an answer from me is pointless if I see communication has broken down.
