I've recently followed recent postings on a topic which began with a link to a media report on an inquest into the tragic and untimely death of a SIB SNCO whom I had previously served with and mentored. Sadly in recent years RMP have lost several personnel during Op Telic deployments. I do not believe that I'm alone in following these news reports and in wishing to discuss reasonably and objectively issues arising with others on forums such as ARRSE or the Old and Bold. Such postings also allows Arrse members an avenue to express their own grief over individual losses. My reason for this post is that I cannot see how the poster contravened the board rules by simply including a hyperlink to a BBC website story.
By writing this I am not throwing down the gauntlet to the board moderator nor am I being a smart aleccy barrack room lawyer as to my mind they are very real topics worth stimulating and rational discussion. In that vein I would be interested to hear the obective and insigtful comments of others.
My thoughts are that if too rigid guidelines on postings are followed topics become anodyne and uninteresting.
