William:

Time for mommy to wipe your bottom and tuck you in nite-nite. Don't forget to brush your teeth.

Bill you've got a long way to catch up to the topic with the most responses. Just give up now. You'll never make it to the 365 that "So how much should a pilot be paid" got.

They reside in the thread view (at the top) of every forum on the board.

Probably useful to note that the Sixth Amendment right "to be confronted with the witnesses against him" only applies in criminal prosecutions. The operators of the forum have no obligation to identify any alleged accuser at this time. But the operators do have the unilateral right to take steps they deem necessary based on the accusations.

It's on our web site under the "contact" link.

I offered to talk with you about this issue by phone although you didn't sound interested. I think a call would have would have resolved the ambiguity you are experiencing.

I'm not fond of playing "I've got a secret" but it really isn't appropriate to publicly post details. Out of courtesy to you and the forum users here is my basic message for the phone call that we can't seem to agree on:

We have two concerns with respect to complaints we receive on this forum.

The first concern is; could a post made by an anonymous user cause problems for us as a business? If there is potential for legal action to develop, it's prudent for us to take some action, like pulling the post or suspending a users account. Of course if the complaint has merit there is probably a violation of the terms of service (TOS) which again could cause us to revoke or suspend a user account.

Each mention of "alleged civil or criminal misconduct" in this thread is in the context of what Dreamlaunch Media Ltd., the owners of Airline Pilot Central, do in the case of a complaint that we receive. As I've mentioned before in this thread, we judge a complaint on merit and consider how our business might be impacted should we be involved in litigation. It's for our own self-preservation, and users protection.

It's important that you, and all users, understand that: If there was impending legal action against us in which a court would force us to divulge a users IP address(es), email address, and other specific account information that could identify a users true identity we would absolutely unequivocally involve the user in the proceedings. Additionally, a judge's order is the only way we'd be compelled to divulge such information.

The second concern we have when we receive a complaint is; does the post in question violate our published terms of service and/or forum rules? Occasionally it's a judgement call, although in most cases it's pretty clear whether or not a post crosses the line. Either way, we reserve the right to make that call as we see fit and any action is at our sole discretion. Some forums have a "penalty box", we do not. The forum rules and TOS are there to meet our goal to maintain a board for professional pilots to discuss piloting issues - like adults. If conducting oneself online like a responsible adult is problem, than this is clearly the wrong forum and we will not beg a user to follow our rules.

So for the user "Kill Bill",
  • Is there a complaint about a post that has the potential to become litigation? Yes.
  • Is there there pending litigation as a result of the post in question? Not to our knowledge.
  • Did the post clearly violate forum rules and the TOS? Absolutely.
Finally, you leave me with a problem to solve. You've identified yourself as the user "Kill Bill" who's account is degraded because of a liability that you've created for us. Allowing you to continue to post as Kill Bill II really isn't an option for me, but I am open to suggestions. What do you suggest?

HSLD, my vote is to toss Kill Bill.

PS: I think he's yanking your chain, he's probably a 14 year old whose parents are notably absent in his life.

Finally, its time to get KB out of here. Seriously, i have never seen someone ***** so much. When ever i read his posts, there was nothing positive that came from him. I always thought he was just having a bad day, but he is just like SkyLow!!!

I vote he stays. I'm quite tired of the pantywaists on here who constantly toe the company line and KB is a great counter-weight for those fools.

Welcome back KB.
