My resignation
Posted: 04 Feb 2010 06:08
Well let's see if Tiger nukes this, or someone else.
I'm not going to curse, say anything bad about you all publicly(on here at least)..
But if you threaten to take away my voice, I will haunt you for a very very long time.
God himself gave me my voice, as did the First Amendment.
Sure, you're free online to nuke anything I post or ignore it, but the fact of the matter is I have a right to say it. Publicly or privately.
And why nuke anything a guy says online, especially here, when I could just take it to facebook, myspace, the entirety of the =AVG= facebook group,
the Forgotten Skies forums, the RCAF server/RCAF TS/forums, you name it.
That is a fool's errand to try to censor someone online as a punitive measure when they take such things so seriously.
You'd have been better off kicking me out on the spot instead of giving me a warning.
If I *truly* wanted to make you guys look bad I would have.
Now having forced me to resign you leave me no choice but to do so even more publicly than ever,
except that I'm going to be an a-hole and do it in ways you can't control.
Clearly ya'll forgot who you were screwing around with.
And even so, you were FINALLY starting to come around to address my concerns and even fix stuff that I brought up with my 'negativity'..
Criticism is only destructive when people ignore it for this/that reason, and especially only for the way in which it's delivered.
But a guy grows tired of yelling 'FIRE' when people ignore the fact that there IS a fire because he says 'there's a G-D MFing fire in this bitch', and 'this is why the GD MFing house burned to the GD MFing ground'.
I obviously held you guys to too high of a standard than you did me given your history as pilots, as a collective unit, our past history, etc.
I'd be wasting my time flying with a group that was so damned hesitant to IMPROVE and be PERFECT.
You guys fly 'military-style' and yet do not accept being grilled by someone akin to a drill-sergeant. If 1 out of 1000 =AVG= expects more out of the group than it can deliver then there's going to be on 999 pilots remaining very shortly.
You guys obviously aren't Jasta 30 material at all.. but at LEAST I made a lasting impression and changed how things operate in what limited fashion that happened.
Too bad that it wasn't good enough for me.
