Should we have a thread in memory of ?

[boatme]

I have some nice shots of some people that were active in offhore boating and have since left us

Would it be apropriate to start a thread of those who were here but now have passed ? Pics of them and there boats and toys ??

I think it would be a nice place to remeber people who loved the sport and to keep them remebered on a thread

Thoughts ???

Marc,

While I agree with you and your reasoning, it has led in the past to certain people voicing their opinions that have not been in good taste. I do know this from personal experience (although not from this site).

I would like to see it done if it could be monitored to maintain the dignity in which it it deserves.

How hard is it to have a spot just for "IN MEMORY"? then we can post a new thread with each person and attach pics of them boating, or their boats, or familys, or us with them, ect... would be a great place to retain this information and easy to find by person

Moderators ?? can this be done ???

I agree you cant stop stupid, and some idiot will start trouble, but it does not mean we should not do it. We just, as you said, have to monitor it

I am raising my hand i would moderate that part of the site

I have mixed feeling on that one. Maybe we should get our Icons opinions?

 

[boatme]

I can see how it is a mixed bag but there are memorials to most anyone that has passed in any sport

why not meoriallize the boaters and boating enthusiasts here ?

It would be somthing not done on any other site and may be a great resourse over the years from which to pull info and pictures on those that were envolved in our sport in a large way or jsut as an enthusiast Could be a great memorial

Bill is right. As shameful as it is that someone would be a dick about a memorial to someone, we've seen it happen in the past.

It is a good idea, but let me talk it over with a few people and get their input before you move forward. Thanks for the PM and I'll get back in touch with you.

Thanks again,
Craig

I'm not taking any thing away from your idea by any means and do think it is a great idea!! Didn't mean it as in I was not a fan by any means if it read that way.

Just making sure we all knew what the Shark had out there already was all.

Idid not take it taht way I just was commenting i did not know he had one as well (Good for him) Tim is original guy that is why he does what he does

I just think it would be nice here on the site

If we didnt do anything, and never acted on our thought process, then I would never have been married 4 times (hmmm wait that is NOT a good thing) LOL

Ok forget that

I still think it is a good idea LOL and i am sticking to it :26::26::26:

Marc, I think it's a great idea. That will keep them all close to our hearts and thoughts.

 

[Chris]

I think it's a great idea.

And if someone even thinks of speaking ill of someone from our sport that's passed...

If it is put in the Dock section I will keep an eye on it as I am sure Air Packer will also. It is a good idea and it will be taken care of.
