Now we have the new "S" word to throw around.
SAFE

In diving, as in most of life there is NO SUCH THING AS SAFE!

DIR is NOT SAFE!
NON DIR is NOT SAFE!

Diving is NOT SAFE!

Anyone who tells you that diving is SAFE is LYING!

Once again a dismissal without any real answer to the point.
Strawman? I don't think so.

DIR PLONK!

Welcome to the club, Warren.

Say something, get misquoted.

Too bad, you rose above the rest of us and debated at a rational level, addressing the equipment rather than arguing at the personal level. As you can see, even being rational doesn't help. Good reply nevertheless.

Pete, I understand your desire to bait and debate... jump into the fray and argue your points...

But I want to go on record:

I think it is improper for you to do so as vigorously as you have in this thread (and others) and at the same time use your moderator powers to control the continuity of the thread but moving half of it or as in other cases deleting posts.

If you want to get down and play lock the mod hat in the closet.

trying to let THIS thread get back to normal. The only threads that I have ever deleted are my own or duplicates. If you think that I have moved the thread to further my own interests, than I will humbly offer my resignation as a moderator. I will post this in the moderator's forum as well, and will abide by the judgement of my peers. It grieves me to think that you would accuse me so.

I also put the redirect in the thread where I pointed out it was split. I did not mean to omit it earlier.

I have no problem with you being a moderator...
I have no problem with you being an emotional combatant in a thread...

I do have a problem with you trying to be both at the same time...
It isn't about you Pete... and that you think it is an accusation sorta proves my point that you can't do both. You can't be both referee and player in any game I know of.

I for one believe you did.

I was going to complain but figured it was pointless.

I also believe that you contributed greatly to the "abnormal" direction of this thread.

Since there is some discussion/concern as to why I split the thread I will recombine them. It was only my opinion that this would be better in the tech section. I am sorry for offending any of you for this indescretion.

If this has caused anyone grief, I apologise.

If I have wronged you in any way, I apologise.

I apologise for my harsh words... may they never cross my lips or fingers again.

There has been some concern that I have deleted someone's post. I only recall deleting a duplicate thread. If somehow you think this is also wrong I apologise as well.

Jeez Pete,

QUIT SCREWING AROUND WITH THE THREAD.

This is too much.
