(06 Aug 2019, 9:16 pm)Dan wrote To be fair, I do think there's some substance in the view that this thread has become a Q&A thread with very little discussion as we had in the past (and that's probably my fault for answering the questions, I hold my hands up there!)
Go back five years and the quality of our discussions and debate were much better, with far greater participation, don't you think? This good quality discussion is still taking place elsewhere (even on groups which are incredibly militant) and it's probably because answers aren't being given, it's left for everyone to debate and discuss.
I don't think the posts were reported as being offensive etc (which is why they weren't moderated), more so that this thread probably wasn't ever intended to be a direct line to GNE's Commercial Team and there's a customer services team to help with those things.

I thought long and hard about my response and at the risk of it being reported, I decided to tone it down somewhat.
Regardless of whether the amount and quality of discussion has dropped over the years, I still don't get why posts like the ones you mention would be reported.
If someone doesn't like a question or a comment, then all they need to do is ignore it and maybe read 'the reporting posts guidance' that Liam posted at the hight of 'fleetlistgate'.
I would love to engage in a good debate/discussion and I am waiting with baited breath for some of the old guard and eezypeazy to make a return. My baths just haven't been the same since the days of the QCS debates!
I firmly believe that the discussion of old, is what made the forum. It is disappointing to see (in the main), it splutter along like it does.
Getting back on topic however, I firmly believe the NSA's aren't being used to their full potential.
I was chuffed to get on a corporate Merc on the X20 a few weeks back and it play the required NSA's for that service.
However, I would love to see improvements made when long term or regular closures are in place and for the NSA's to start achieving their potential.
