Is the complication worth the alteration? When I am in error I re-post an apology and correction, seems to be OK with everyone. I find it doesn't, obviously if the post has been quoted then there is no point in correction but many times on Thunderboat Ive found it useful to be able to edit or make things a little less emotive or clearer... even deleting if I feel it was erroneous. It isnt always about needing to apologise. Its about making it a more comfortable space to post knowing I have some control. 32 minutes ago, Liam said: As I've not been around in an official capacity for a couple of years I'm unaware if it's been discussed recently but has been discussed in the past and it was chosen the best way forward then. That probably still stands today. Okay, thank you. Is there an explanation why it was decided as the best way forward? Just making you work a bit here, especially as you've had a lovely long rest. Ahh, but now I remember, we are not able to question the mods decisions. Edited October 10, 2018 by Guest Sudden memory prompt, and deja vu!

Phil Ambrose Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 5 hours ago, Jerra said: The spiteful and ill informed comments do occur on CWDF however this forum hasn't deemed it necessary to have a sub forum entitled Thunderboat where criticism and mockery of the forum and often named members takes place. It strikes me there is something a little amiss with a forum which can't stand on its own two feet without mocking and criticising other forums. If it is working and well supported why does it feel the need for such a section? Jerra you have me there because I've not read that section for many; many months whereas you seem to be very well read on that section so I'll bow to your obvious in-depth knowledge of Thunderboat.
