Would you like to see a RallyPoint like website for veterans, active and retired that is not for professional development?

So it was explained to me by a RP administrator that RP is meant for serious professional military development. He also pointed out that because the military I served in was nothing like today's therefore my experience is irrelevant. As RP members we are only supposed to be discussing things like regulations, how to get promoted etc. Please don't tell me facebook provides what I am talking about. It doesn't.

If that is their intent, they are doing a suck-ass job of implementing it. This certainly feels like a Facebook-type social media site for people with a military background, which is pretty f+<&!ng awesome. I doubt the person who told you that had correct intell. No way that is what this site is for.

Cpl Brett Wagner -- no RallyPoint admin that I know of would tell you -- or any veteran from any period -- that your experience is "irrelevant" solely because of the period in which you served.
This is a serious allegation for you to make, though it should be easy enough for you to send me (or MAJ Laurie H. the message you received that called you "irrelevant" due to your time period. Can you please send it to me in a message, or email it to " [login to see] "?
It is true that RP is intended to serve professional development needs as much as possible, though at times of course we see people enjoying discussing more casual topics.
Anyway, most importantly, I am asking you to please substantiate the claim you are making here by sending me the message you received from the admin who called you irrelevant.

PO2 Jonathan Scharff
CPT Aaron Kletzing and LTC Yinon Weiss I would also be interested in seeing exactly what was said to this veteran. I am concerned with the amount of time that has passed between the claim and the request for specifics. Please keep us updated. Thanks

PO2 Jonathan Scharff, exactly what is the amount of time that has passed between the claim and the request for specifics? CPL Wagner created this post 18 hours ago (as of this writing) and MAJ Weiss asked CPL Wagner for the details yesterday.

Sir, I believe this is the thread to which CPL Wagner is referring:

It probably is. I'm just guessing but...I'm pretty sure I located the posts in question.

I have no idea who you were talking to, brother. They gave you some serious bad intel. Seriously bad.
