jaydee Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Hi all I just read another thread where another member ( who I very much respect) jokes about Luftwhiners. Some of you may think I am "wasting my Time with these Posts of mine". maybe I am ! But we dont need any more Fragmentation of our small community (that we all enjoy). OUR passion is in decline. Lets stop" Hammering the nails into WW2 flight sim coffin". We are ALL here for the COMMON reason: WE LOVE WW2 FLIGHT SIMS ! Lets remember that when we Type to each other ! ~S~ 6
Ace_Pilto Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Disagree, if your character is so weak you can't take name-calling on the internet you need toughening up. 1
216th_Xenos Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Agreed, but in return, people are going to have to stop claiming 'facts' about the fm without providing sources. Half the time people bring up DCS or 1946 as reference points for their beloved 190. It's always the same people, about the same plane. We all want accurate representations, but before namecalling comes unbacked claims. 2
Lusekofte Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Disagree, if your character is so weak you can't take name-calling on the internet you need toughening up. Well this is not excactly the internet, it is a community with one single interest. I fly as often as I can on Friday night bomber flights. The atmosphere there is so great and you really got a good connection with the people you fly with, so the last thing you want to do is disrespect those. In here it has developed a pro vs not pro at all. When we all know that the people criticizing things got just as much passion as those who support the game. Personally I am not all in for a polarized debate about anything, but I find myself in one now and then. Just as if I was looking for trouble. I think we all need to understand that no one here, is here for hating the game. We all are here for the same reason. I like this game, but I still got the feeling it could have been so much more. And I got a feeling the developers are slowly getting there 2
Aap Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Disagree, if your character is so weak you can't take name-calling on the internet you need toughening up. Everybody can be a tough guy in the internet, but would you mind explaining the benefit of being tough and keep on name-calling instead of being civilized? There isn't even a fistful of dollars at stake here. 5
Jade_Monkey Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I agree, no need to namecall. But i'm with Xenos regarding facts. Saying that the FM is wrong because it was different is IL2 is like saying that the jump mechanism is wrong in Tomb raider because it is not as high as it was in Super Mario. Using other games as a reference instead of real flight data is not having evidence. This doesnt make BOS FM correct by default, but we need proper evudence to claim inconsistencies. The devs have done a lot of research, so just saying it doesnt feel right is not gonna cut it. 1

coconut Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Totally agree with OP. Disagree, if your character is so weak you can't take name-calling on the internet you need toughening up. Growing a thick skin is always a good thing to do, but it's not something one should expect from others.
wtornado Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Got nothing to do with thick skin or the WWW. This is a Gentleman's Flying Club with moderators. With Club rules and protocols on courtesy and respect. The way I see it your either in or your out. And some are right.There is a big internet Universe that people can go bother,insult and criticize somewhere else. People tend to forget they do not own this forum they are invited to it. Hopefully our Flying Club standards will be upheld. 5
6./ZG26_McKvack Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Disagree, if your character is so weak you can't take name-calling on the internet you need toughening up. We got a real badass over here
6./ZG26_Emil Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 How's this... Offence is never given it can only be taken
Turban Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) With all its imperfections, IL2 has always been the love of my life when it comes to doing something on a computer, I love Il2 and I think the devs did a great job on BoS, and while people can very well have opinions (I have opinions too) I really don't see the need for constant animosity and aggressivity and trash talk that takes place sometimes. So I'll just agree with OP that things need to cool down a bit and mutual courtesy needs to be restored, and that means everyone just be nice to each other .. Edited February 29, 2016 by Turban
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) I apologize Jaydee. but I'm german myself kraussnauer; hesse germany. I appreciate name calling its a form of admiration. Edited February 29, 2016 by 71st_Mastiff

Jason_Williams Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Ok enough said. Just be nice to each other. Jason
