Folks

At the outset, I would like to point out that this post is targeted at a very few members however I thought it would be a good insight to everyone to let them see the behaviour that has been happening of late.

Some of it has been pretty innocuous for example someone who attended the recent pilot careers event in London signed used a VATSIM UK staff email address to sign up for some information.  Some of it has been a bit more sinister, for example someone signed some of the staff emails up to a porn site and then infiltrated the staff email ring to let everyone know what they had done using unacceptable language.  We are obviously investigating this.

This evening we had people screaming, shouting and playing soundboards in teamspeak.  Can i remind everyone that access to the teamspeak server is not a right of membership and I will have no qualms about permanently removing members from it who break the rules.  

The staff simply don't have time to deal with behaviour like this.  It wouldn't and shouldn't be tolerated any any other walk of life, this includes VATSIM.
