What angers
some, myself included, is that some of the misinformation that
Mxsmanic posts as fact would be quite dangerous for a student pilot to
accept as true.


Agree.... While we can't help the lurkers, we can advise new people that
respond to his posts that he is a troll and use information provided by him
with a grain of salt and they are wasting their valuable time with him.

OTOH, the responses from others that reflect
frustration in dealing with such misinformation give "color" to the
readers of the thread, and should help them to catch on that this
person really has nothing to contribute with regard to flying real
aircraft. So, over all, the signal to noise is *improved* by these
contributions because they function as a "noise filter".


Disagree.... All it should take is one response to stop the noise factor
and others follow suit by not acknowledging him. If we work as a group to
improve the quality, then he will go away getting the message that nobody
will put up with his nonsens.

Opinions will always vary, but GENERALLY speaking, most of his responses
just don't fit the real world situation.
