So what's the difference between Neon Rotors & Timmy B, I didnt see too many people defending him while he got publicly roasted on here.

Timmy B had a god complex that made him think he was better than us all. Neon just seems very enthusiastic & lets his fingers work the keys without thinking of the consequences!!

As has been said, he made some mistakes, I believe Rachel spoke to him about it & he seems to have calmed down a bit so lets give the boy a chance as lets face it, we all had to start somewhere!!!

TimmyB - unfortunately was very quick with the language in a more graphical manner. Though I spoke with Tim a while ago and ironically some of the clique elements he saw are very much true just didn't convey the message in the right manner and I think he would accept that.

He asked if he was okay to come to the RCHA flyin and I said very much so why not what happens online stays there as far as I'm concerned far too often we make judgements and assumptions on people via there online character yet face to face everything changes and 99% of the time from that point onwards were far better at seeing the person as a person and not some text on a screen.

Your a testiment to that I feel 'Guy' someone who was misunderstood especially by me until we met at the 'Field of Doom' and now I'm pleased I got to put a face to a name and had a joke about the online issues.

I just wish there was someone nearby who could give the guy a hand! Is he up in Scotland somewhere?

Ive flown my trex 700 in my garden which is pretty small, 600inthe garage. Your right kev, he does need advice, I think all unneeded negative posts shud be lemone!

I linked to some clubs for him in another post when Rachel asked but here it is again http://www.modelflyingscotland.org/index.php/home/where-to-find-club-information

Unfortunately he's too far away from me to be able to help him but hopefully he should find a club on the SAA website that will help him

....tant amount to online bully boy tatics and I'm not going to have a discussion with another parent on how his son is being harrassed online by grown men who should know better.


People if you can't say anything constructive to help support the lad and encourage him then play elsewhere. I've said it before - we need to better 'Teachers' NOT Preachers!!

Please remember the Broadcast Act of 1990 has teeth.

Hmm, I hope none of that was directed at me.

If anyone cared to read my posts in NEONs thread nothing was specifically aimed at him, only the people behind the donation of the helicopter. I don't care what he or any of you do but as stated I believe to just give stuff to people with no idea of the following consequences is irresponsible and the video shows why.

I don't care who cries about me saying it, admin or otherwise, to glance over what could have been a potentially life threatening incident for the sake of not wanting to offend anyone beggars belief. Don't get me wrong I'm quite happy to watch people hurt themselves on video all day long, I just wouldn't like to know in the back of my mind I was responsible for giving them the tool to do so.

None of this thread was aimed at you BIFFA, and as I said, it's not a case of who said what and they said this, this was purely a thread for Neon to know that some of the forum offer him support instead of criticism, so if you can't stay on topic, then please refrain from posting on my threads.

Thanks

Personally, I think there are some members on here who should be ashamed of themselves... Simple as that. Im sure some will tell me to "get back in my box"... But i honestly couldn't give a £@$%. This lad needs support simple as that.... That may need to sometimes involve constructive criticism.... But a general change of attitude would make it so much better. There are ways of speaking to people....

There's actually a few other posts 'off topic' in your thread, perhaps you should inform those forum members too?

That maybe true, but yours are always the posts that I am sure people dislike the most, and will get perfectly decent threads closed, the kid needs help, that's it, who are you to say if somebody who offers help in the way of a heli is being irresponsible?

Rule for one and not for others?

My posts are disliked most because?

I'll tell you why, because I say it like it is and don't just say what people would like me to say or say BS just to keep people happy or keep in with the clique.

I didn't say the offer of a helicopter was irresponsible, where did I say that? You having made that remark proves you are quick to shout about my posts when you haven't had the decency to even read them properly. I said that giving one to someone when you have no idea of their level of experience or mental state was irresponsible - see the difference? They are not buying it, they are being given it and as the 'giver' you are partly (if not totally) responsible for the consequences of that act.

THREAD CLOSED SORRY TO YOU WHO'S POSTS WERE HELPFUL

But as always in these situations, there is a minority, that deem it appropriate to post things that aren't relevant.

My aim for this thread, was for Ross to realise, that the forum wants him to learn to fly heli's, as that is why we are all here, most of us want him to learn in a safe manner.

To the people who were bothered about this thread, instead of writing tosh on it, Thanks.
