There has been no need for any of this recent squabbling... most of us are older guys, not young teenagers.
I always enjoyed coming to this forum because of it's good natured mature banter with like minded enthusiasts... it was a haven away from some of the other forums that seem to spout ill will at any given opportunity if you so much as uttered a word against their pet game.

I was quite shocked, truth be told to see things rapidly go down hill because a poster questioned the cost of the UE... also, people being told to STFU just because they were asking about mod compatibility? Do we really want to see this safe haven going down the route of so many others?

Anyway, I'm with Adger, for someone like me, who hasn't worked for the last 20 months, but still has bills to meet, the price was too steep frown
So I will be taking advantage of the dev's kind offer to discount the game to all WoFF 3 pilots... (thank you Adger for bringing this up)

Sorry for going on, but please chaps, let's not have another episode of negativity just because people have different views... I love this place smile


Edit... the game gods have smiled on me. My daughters have given me the funds as an early birthday present, a month early whoohoo The UE is mine!

Thank you for this Trooper! The toxic environment that pervaded the ROF forum was what brought me to WOFF. We don't need to have thought police, but we should insist on civility.

Well said, mate!

When people love something so much, passions will always be high. Sometimes even the best of us will forget our manners then when our expectations aren't met. Certainly that has been true of me in my own life. My sincere hope though is that some of the sharper responses made while emotions were still riding high will soon be water under the bridge and we can let them pass, instead of carrying them forward.

As many have noted, the past day or so on this forum has been unusual in it's tone. I think that is the very thing that we need to bear in mind. It is unusual. It is not the norm. It is my sincere hope that despite our differing opinions, we will not make it the norm by holding grudges due to hurtful words said in the heat of frustration when we are not our usual selves.

We may be barmy but we are still gentlemen, one and all. Let us raise a glass to our differences and settle them in the sky, as proper gentlemen do.

cheers

The reason Lou is so happy is he was not assigned to IaShimia ( spelling ) where after 5 months most "diddy boppers" tried to get a date with a fur seal.

Some of the "new comers" have not faced the slings and arrows we have in trying to get a great WW1 sim.

In my case it started in 2002 with "wings with wires" - lots of hope but it was a no go!

WOFF is what I do along with CIV 5 --- Talk about $$$ check out CIV 6 with all of the bells and whistles.

My cost for WOFF must be some where less than 1 cent per hour -- or so!

And another thing ( rant on dude ) we retired military have not had worthy COLA increase for years.

So if I can get allong with buying WOFF,donating to WOFF, and going to Dayton to show off WOFF on my "dime"
"Suck it Up" and become one of our welcomed guest.
Some of you youngsters might have to google "diddy boppers".

Updated Realistic tracers effects mod to be FULLY compatible with WOFF UE now (hopefully).
Sorry for my previous overlook and if you use this mod, download an updated version, pls.

The Army used to say there was a girl behind every tree at Shimia, they also had a forced R & R after six months to keep you from going crazy. I worked with lots of Ditty Boppers.
