rdufokker 6 #1 November 3, 2010 Could the managers of this site please give D.B. Cooper it's own section. When I look at the overall headings and it shows 45 new posts, only to click on Skydiving history and find that they all are under D.B. Cooper, it's a waste of time. Not to mention that the thread has evolved into "nothing to do with Cooper". Lock it or move it to it's own section PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Irony: "the History and Trivia section hijacked by the D.B. Cooper thread" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, we don't want it in Speaker's Corner, either Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

377 21 #9 November 3, 2010 It's so incredibly easy to just totally ignore the DBC forum. Why read it if you hate it? Skydivers are usually all about free speech, but apparently not on this topic. Is this forum dumb stupid and offensive? Yes, at times it is, but is that so unique? The Cooper hijacking does have some arguable relevance to skydiving history and trivia, which is the forums stated subject. Sure we stray off topic, but so does every other forum on this website at times. The DBC forum generates quite a bit of traffic for the website and traffic helps ad revenue. How many of those advoctaing killing the DBC forum give any money directly to dropzone.com? There are forums I found that I don't like but I just ignore them. I don't plead for their extinguishment. It's easy to just tune out. You don't have to kill everything that you don't like. That's my 25 cents worth. 3772018 marks half a century as a skydiver.

You don't have to kill everything that you don't like. Yep. The proposed cure is worse than the "problem". Once you open the floodgates, would everything that offends anyone be shuttled off to this special place? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickDG 23 #13 November 3, 2010 At least DB Copper is somewhat still relevant. All I see here ad nauseam is regurgitated crap. Kap 3? Jerry Bird? Paradactyl? Church Window PCs? Piglet's? Diapers?
