Just an open snivel-does anyone remember when this NG was a boating information
source? Where somebody with an interest in boating could post a query or just
"read the mail" and not have to wade (pun intended) through the political BS
and personal attacks?
I do...was fun and informative..not now.
One reason I bought (several) boats was because once I cleared the last channel
buoy outbound all that stuff didn't exist anymore...and this NG used to reflect
that feeling.
Can we maybe, just maybe, get back to the boating basics that was the basis of
REC.BOATS and quit chumming the dingbats? If we don't feed 'em they won't
come.
Sadly, it takes self-discipline from the mainline posters to keep the
noise level down.
It would appear that's not likely here. :)
