Sure they are.  They're threats that HTC will see no more of their money until the rule is changed.  Granted that a $15/month threat isn't much of a threat but it's still a threat nonetheless.

You do know what a threat is right? Nuke wasn't even talking about the 12 hr rule and Sunka said he already quit so where's the threat?

Yes I do.  Evidently you don't.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Apparently you don't either if those are what you call "threats".

None of this is about the posted content which gets abandoned by about the middle of page one these days here in the forums. It's about who can perform the hottest forum ACM by flying as close as they can to the bleeding edge of Hitech and Skuzzy's flame, each time a new line in the sand is drawn by them.

None of you would accept anyone doing that to your face in your own living room. I guess Hitech and Skuzzy are really just your slaves for a $14.95 entitlement in your collective minds these days.

Much of this can be headed off at inception if Hitech would introduce a new rule# to the forum.

-15 Too close to the bleeding edge of the flame.

The house rule. Is that the house is the rule how ever the house rules.


I've learned to trust Hitech and Skuzzy enough that this would be a last but, final resort.

We shouldn't have to invest hours of our time to try and create a fight. I've been there and did it before you even heard of Aces High.

The game is promoted as 24/24 action, and it is not.

While I must admit, I'm not on 24 hours a day, every time I have stayed up late playing (till 4 AM CMT) there have always been  at least 40 in each country. :headscratch:

Two weeks ago I was in the DFW area and paid a visit to the HTC office. Hitech gave a brief display of some of the new water/terrain...very cool stuff and not unlike what's been posted in the updates. I watched Dale at work and let me say, what he does is tedious stuff. The situation is no less demanding for Skuzzy.

It's safe to say that HTC is aware of the side switch time demands/complaints/suggestions, which have overtaken the general discussion forum of late. Each time Hitech or Skuzzy have to deal with a distraction on the BBS, less work is applied to the game re-write. I for one would like to see the game progress continue unfettered. Can we just leave the drama behind and let these folks do their' work?



You got that right Maxie! :aok

2 am PST Aspen(AMAX) and I still find air fights and GV fights. Some nights it's the bish, some it's the rooks. Fights are fights where and how you find them by that time. I've rarely seen any of REVO's voting block on at 2 am PST.

Earlier than that there are many opportunities to start fights or get into them. Just not the same type and opportunities as before 9pm PST time. I do see some of REVO's voting block on up to about 10pm PST. But, after 10pm the MA empties out to anywhere between 15-40 a side. If you are lucky, there are a few Aussi and Kiwi players who are pitbulls about re-upping to go at you, while having great attitudes about the whole thing. They make us americans and our antics look like a bunch of whiners.
