This thread is a topic in a public forum where new people come to learn about soaring. The thread has an interesting subject line and it is at the top of the list of topics.

I realize that it is being perpetuated by one person, a gaggle of jocks from a high school football team, and one 'uncool' kid in the cafeteria (no wait, my mistake... the people posting here are 'adults'). BUT it is likely to create an impression with newcomers (and relative newcomers) that the soaring community is full of vindictive and bullyish people.

This thread is not good for soaring. Please stop now. I've deleted all of my posts to it and I hope that other posters will do likewise.
