AI acts as though others have a short memory. He complains about insults and rudeness to his person but only recently he was calling me a twat for expressing - quite rightly considering the state of sport - my view on doping. He also ignored scientific evidence because it wasn't consensus but now objects to Stolly's consensus with an analogy.Originally Posted by noel
I agree. I think it could be related to AI's writing style. I don't think he made many friends on a few other threads. Sorry AI.
He has damaged his reputation by demanding respect from others who don't agree, whilst viciously attacking another who didn't agree with him. It's a shame because I agree with the gist of his argument on here, namely that rules should be clearly defined. I don't necessarily agree with his 'advice' that the FRA should 'get professional advice,' and I don't like his and Witton's desire to point out every flaming hazard on a fell route.
In short I think the FRA should move away from the nannying I see occurring I.e. regulating what kit people should take, and take a condensed set of rules that allow adults to appreciate the implications themselves. If we dumb the sport down to allow for those who don't want to think then the people who do, will be made to suffer.
