Hey gang,over at the WIX it was night of the long knives.So far two people have been permanently banned.Scott,who is the big guy of the sight had finally had enough with some problem children and gave them the boot.One of the people was a real problem child and just couldnt help himself by interjecting his LEFT wing politics on just about every post.I for one am glad the guy is gone.I love the airplanes and the heros that flew them and dont give a damn about the politics.Hope you all go take a read and see for yourselves.Lets stick to airplanes I say.ps check out the pics of the B-17 to Savannah.Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

I'm glad Scott finally put his foot down.
Now if he would only ban some of the other "problem children" that site might actually be worth joining again some day.

Tom, If you were following the discussion, he wasn't kicked out for his left wing politics. He was kicked out for his inability to play well with, or tolerate the opinions of, others. Basically he didn't want to play by Scott's rules, not because of any political leanings.

Yeah lots of crap been happening over on WIX. I was a WIX moderator for awhile but I quit. A few people that were suppost to back me up on things never did and gave me a hard time about things so I quit.
Hope WIX gets back to warbirds.

Ah but Chuck ole greenie could'nt keep from posting arguments that had nothing to do with airplanes and included his leftwing snippets.Seems he was intolerant of others.Guess I will donate more money to lonestar for their Hurricane repair.

Hi Chuck,
I really liked the 'said banned WIX poster' and I am sad he is gone. But he did break a few rules more then a few times. Politics, baiting people, and odd comments. A few days ago he made a comment towards all the younger WIX'ers that were born after WWII, Korea, Vietnam. He pretty much said we had no reason to like warbirds. Sorry but that was pretty mean.
