Never in my life have i seen the Owner of a company pop off to his PAYING customers like Dale does.
I dont know if its just ego or lack of maturity.

But either way It's just wrong.
Sorry If I pissed off you fan boys but I tell it like i see it.

I didn't read it that way. Here's the original thread:

I'd agree that he didn't need to add that last line. Just search the forums and all the threads are there.

Yup but i seem to recall reading some comments either in another thread or another bbs that did not give a good impression.

Sure not bothered enough to hunt them out tho :)

That was indeed an unfortunate incident, I have to agree....  :(  Fact is, Fidd is (was) very enthusiastic about creating skins - he and G42 came up with the idea of SAC for Air Warrior and I was very proud of the fact that my squad, The Krait Squadron, was also associated with SAC as they were members of the Kraits.

With the introduction of skins in AH2, Fidd's interest in AH was renewed, if only so that he could once again use his great skinning talents.  Unfortunately, he made the mistake of questioning the problem with B17 skins - simply because he is something of a perfectionist when it comes to skins, and he saw the problem as a serious flaw.  I'm afraid what followed meant a very talented skinner who would have been a great asset to the game was lost there and then.

I dont really see why that thread was closed :confused:, i agree that last line wasnt really needed given this is just Beta stages etc, but from all the other crap talk about AH2 ive seen, that seems pretty small.

I have to agree also that perhaps Fidd could have been a bit more diplomatic about how he approached HiTech, but I really doubt he intended to come across as he did.  I'm in a fairly unique position of having met both Fidd and HiTech - Fidd several times at various UK Cons, HiTech at last year's Con.  I think if they had had the opportunity to discuss this face-to-face, the outcome would have been quite different.  This is not an ideal medium and I can understand how misunderstandings can often happen.

Get over your self pal and learn a little on how to treat people.
Laughing at em aint thet way to do it trust me.

But always with respect , and guess what ? , That is how all my little gripes and comments ( both pro and con ) have always been received ...."

 You may want to take the time to do a couple of searches on the history of Hi-Tech Creations and  this game as to,  how and why it became so sucessful and  community oriented  . I can say for me that is wasn't from them treating their customer base like a bunch of hose-bag-sheep" !

You know maybe I cam out with both barrells blazing.
For that I will say sorry to Dale;)

That is just what I find odd sometimes is that If you call Dale or Roy they will bend over backwards to answer any and all your questions.

And then other times on this BBS you will get a smartarse reply LOL.
Oh well we are all human.

I just think that maybe old Dale has got a quick trigger like me sometimes lOL.

Anyway HT you are a class act dude sorry if I was an stunninghunk .

welll IMHO if you have a serious thing to discuss email them or call them.

The BBS is more of a plethera of various thoughts ideas good bad ect. I would surmise that the majority of the smartassed remarks are retorts to either a percieved personal attack or slamming the game

and then their are the times when they just kidding but hey it's HT's BBS his game his rules if ya dont like somthing discuss it with him directly. If ya do it here...he's gonna flame ya
