Okay, folks, enough is enough. We've got good, long-term, high
quality pilots seriously discussing vandalizing someone's website,
because of said someone's troll-dom.

In the past, I have defended said troll, and lambasted said vandals,
but have now come to realize that this troll is obviously so divisive
and upsetting to some that this issue risks tearing apart the very
fabric of rec.aviation.

I personally find this amazing (he truly doesn't bother me that much)
but, in the interest of keeping this newsgroup intact and (relatively)
harmonious, I hereby publically make the following pledges, and urge
others to join me he

1. I will not respond to MX's posts.
2. I will not lambaste MX on these newsgroups.
3. I will not vandalize MX's website.

All in favor, say "aye"...

From my observation, there has been more posts _about_ MX by other
people than his posts. His questions are about aviation, albeit
irritating, but others' posts about him have little to do with
aviation (ie lets vandalize his website; lets get even, etc..).

Honestly, I am a bit surprised by the negative reaction from others,.
It seems to be that some pilots find his questions which are
uncharacteristic of a nonpilot to be threatening. There have been
cases when he was right and the responding pilots were wrong, yet he
got lambasted for asking such simple questions and arguing with the
responders.
