Stosh 3452 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 What people don't realize that behind the scenes there is always a ton of crap being passed back and forth with PM's and such. I have tried to stay civil. I have used my Ignore List liberally, but over the past 2 days the whole issue of Scout Spirit among "scouters" seems to have gone out the window. I always considered myself to be rather thick skinned, but I've had enough. Thanks for sharing the trail, but it's time to take another path. Link to post Share on other sites
Krampus 696 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 ...exactly why I&P needs to go bye-bye. We keep losing good people. Link to post Share on other sites

Krampus 696 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I don't think this is limited to I&P No. But the majority of problems arise out of discussions around I&P issues. We would be better off without it. It's like using pocket knives outside of an axe yard, sure it is allowed but if you don't exercise EXTREME good judgement you will certainly have more problems than you would inside the axe yard.

NJCubScouter 1389 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to me I&P has been relatively tame the past few days. Stosh, if you're leaving completely, sorry to see you go. Link to post Share on other sites

Fehler 118 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Sounds like we need to remove private messages, rather then I+P. I+P is ignoreable, private messages not so much. Link to post Share on other sites
NJCubScouter 1389 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 All I can say is that if there are offensive private messages being sent, they have not been brought to the attention of this moderator. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DuctTape 1230 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 There are PMs here? I feel left out, no one has ever messaged me. Link to post Share on other sites

gumbymaster 98 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 @@Stosh, I hope you haven't left yet, or that you otherwise may still visit as a lurker, but in any case... You and I have not always agreed on our positions, and on some others we seemed to be of one mind; but I have always respected your opinions either way, and have greatly valued the contributions you have made to this forum. While I might not do it the way you do, yours is the constant voice in the back of my head that makes me ask, could I/we be doing an even better job of "boy led" or trusting the Scouts with the implementation of the BSA program.
