pilotdave 0 #1 March 9, 2004 Threads are being moved out of general skydiving and into talkback like crazy lately. A lot of people are unsure of what topics ARE allowed in that forum. While it is a "topical forum," it has always been used as a place where skydivers can talk about anything skydiving related. Talkback has been used for everything non-skydiving related. I'd like to see the rules for that forum relaxed. We're all skydivers here, and some of us would actually like to be able to talk about skydiving without having to compete with political or religious debates. I can understand the "no jokes" rule in safety and training or gear and rigging, but I see no problem with that sort of thing in general skydiving. I'd prefer it to be a little bit light hearted and, dare I say, FUN! There are serious forums for serious questions. There is a forum for pure noise. Now can we please have something in between?

AndyMan 7 #2 March 9, 2004 I don't really care what the rules are, but I would like to know what they are. Topics that are clearly related to skydiving are being moved to talkback, which is unfortunate. That said, it seems like the only rule - that posts be related to skydiving, is innacurate. I'm curious about what the rule really is. We can't obey the rules if we don't know what they are. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

BigM 2 #3 March 9, 2004 Agreed. Thanks for moving it over here. I want to state again how much I enjoy and appreciate this site as a whole, it is many people's salvation. But I am obviously like minded that the General Discussions forum should be a little more relaxed. Thanks for chiming in on this!
