I did. Its pretty bad when some people have nothing better to do but complain about a topic that is of interest to us in this part of the world.

If there were topic that was no interest to me in another part of the world,  I wouldn't read it, but anyway.

I'm done with the forums.

well i guess they dont like the fact we discuss the ships that we like and how hey are treated... i guess if we were in a different part the world and discussed the ships there it would be ok.. looks like they dont want us talking here in Canada about these ships i hve been looking at the boards here last few weeks most the time if we didnt talk the board would be stalled for days

Gulfspan
There are two sides to the equation, commercial and passenger related traffic. The new vessels will meet the needs of the commercial industry. The question now becomes will they meet the needs of the passenger sector.Kasco

good point ..cant get any worse..

That would make for an interesting conversation. Perhaps the staff would ask us to stop talking too LOL

Actually Ericson did not leave Halifax today. Things rarely happen on time at Halifax Shipyard, so maybe tomorrow.

Some people can't help but vent. If the moderator wanted to block objectionable posts I think he should do so, that way the valuable info could still be imparted in these forum topics.

Perhaps someone should start a facebook page or blog on the topic and then we could move all the traffic over there, freeing up this site.

I see the moderator's point, and it is up to us to stick a bit closer to the topic.

Since the main subject of all these topics is Marine Atlantic, it might be best to just have one thread called "Marine Atlantic" where we can discuss everything going on.
For me personally the ferries are a big interest of mine, and I check the forums regularly to hear of any news. Hard to hear anything otherwise when you're across the province.

I work accross the road from where the leif ericson is dock, should be leaving soon there isn't much activity going on there for the past couple of days, the only thing i see that needs to be done on the outside is for the emergency life raft to be installed, the paint job looks pretty much done "look great too". Should take one more picture before she leaves

Thanks Jarrod . .  I'm with you there on the new group. I don't know who or what the complaints were all about. Nothing to see here folks . .  move along. Don't like the topic, just skip over it and move along. A few spooks here seem to enjoy ruining conversations they don't partake in anyway. Whiners . . .
