Torque you are lovely

BTW that day I wasnt talking about tiffie's FM. I was saying that the reduction of the torque had made the tiffie a ridiculously easy plane to fly. A plane that in R.L. used to crash against the hangars of the airfields because the rudder couldnt overcome the torque, now feels like a P47 regarding torque.
And few people won't agree in this board, even if that means agreeing with the Official AH Whiner (tm) RAM, That torque has suffered a serious turning down last version, beyond what it can be seen as realistic (Still have to see tiffies yawing hard to the right on takeoffs

).
You say that 40 newbies are in the place of the people who has gone. And that AH gets better without the people who has left . I will tell you something:
1-Most of those newbies are paying less than you. Some 20$, some 15$, and some, yes, 10$. So economically, those 40 newbies will be more or less like 20 for HTC's economy, while the people fleeing are full-rate 30$ paying customers.
2-Most of those newbies are HO-lovers right now. We all know you use HO as a mortal weapon, but many of that people use HO as a way of life.
3-Most of those newbies will fly the Dweeb-plane-o-week. In this case of the version. THat meanse an average of 20-30 more Nikis online.
4-All the guys are leaving are experienced sticks with good ACM knowledge. Look at Gatt. Heck, look at Habicht, he is (was) one of the best and most effective pilots in AH. That means that you lose the chance to get good fites in the MA. With that lose, the MA will be even more boring and eventually more people will leave. An exodus that in fact could be easily stopped.
5-In short: The newbies probably would be here anyway without the problems that have made so many of us go away...(paying less, heck, why not?). So, in fact you win what you would've won anyway, and you lose much more than what you get (if you want to see good fights online, that's it).
Regarding my ego...Look Who's talking

. Anyway, I don't think I have bigger ego than any other on this sim. But happens that when I feel bad about something I say it. That includes to die in some weird ways, if you follow me. Others get a firm grip and make force with the teeth and say nothing.
We all have big egos here, not only me. So, well, maybe in that way you are right

Hang...as always ,very funny

. Yes, sometimes I feel like I'm thumping my head against a wall, and sometimes that depressed me a bit.
Not so now...Seems that most people here doesnt understand that I, over any other consideration, love AH and want the best for it.
ANd seeing all those experienced sticks fleeing is of course, not the best for AH.
Jihad...you are right, there have been times I've been mistook because of my poor english. Some other times not. But my english tends to sound way more harsh that what I intend to be (Was talking about just this the other day by E-mail with a good friend of mine who reads this BBS), and that leads people to answer in harsh ways.
There is little I can do about it, apart of trying to improve my english. But truth is that sometimes I have been completely mistook due my english.
Many others not, but,well that's another story
