And I thought the ban hammer was given a break already? Guess not? Is it just me or is Sith basically admitting that ED will release a known-buggy build just for the sake of releasing something? no mate, their view is "something is better than nothing" Yet at times....I much prefer nothing

You know, it is what it is. The flightsim enthusiast is number 3, on ED's list of 2. While I applaud what you're doing here, the only folks listening is yourselves. Unfortunately.
I've gone completely retro, and enjoying it. BMS Falcon is the latest sim I fly. damson got me interested in DiD's EF2000 all over again. Bought it off Ebay for $20 bucks. Holy crap, what a sim. Graphics, ummm, but gameplay - remember what that is/was? - is tremendous! Yall should try it.

Still, it's good to vent Also, you're not exactly correct there. ED is keeping an eye on us too.... as shown by my warning levels on their forums despite not posting there for years Others have been banned on there too, for statements made here or in other forums. I've gone completely retro, and enjoying it. BMS Falcon is the latest sim I fly. +1 to that. Thinking of trying IL2 BoS again as well, but I'm not much of a WWII simmer even though I like watching those airplanes in movies.

Indeed, I've been hearing good things about it. I'm a jet guy, you are right, but I'm also looking to improve my dogfighting skills and my energy management and I was under the impression that flying and fighting in WWII birds would help with that. Am I wrong in that?

PM sent I don't mind paying in full for a good sim, happy to support the devs that make good stuff. Or are you saying it's not worth the full price? I do know they have a sale every so often as I am subscribed to their newsletter, but didn't think of getting the newer games as I have the premium edition of BoS but haven't really spent much time in it.

Others have been banned on there too, for statements made here or in other forums. I can confirm this as this is how I was banned. Ask Skatezilla over at ED for the run down, even 4 lines short of NineLiner would be more than happy to confirm this, just ask him about the my proposal to put forward a member for the vote on the next community manager, that should jog his memory.

From the maybe 2-3000 people that play this game (which is very very low number in case you are wondering) there are 5-10 old grannies that just stay here and bitter. every single friggin time I log in here... same babushkas... yada yada yada yada... most of them look like this:
*** You are ignoring this user *** Toggle the display of this post
I don't know who invited you back to read these forums but it sure as hell wasn't me. However let me inform you that the numbers you have proposed are completely incorrect. 2-3000 is an extremely low number when Chris from VEAFAIL informed this community that his company has sold 10's of thousands of his HAWK module alone. that would put the number in the 10's of millions who actually play DCS based on Chris's sales facts on a single module alone. 5-10 old grannies? what are you 5 years old? I'm 34, hardly a grannie unless you are 5 and have the mentality where everything in the world is much larger than it actually is. It is always a ray of sunshine to the forms when a member comes in and spits out a fictitious post like the one you put forward that holds absolutely no fact. I too will sign off with an awesome link to a gif image for added bonus fictitious image
