ZAPP

You were an ass. I asked you politely to clean up your language and you reacted like any punk would do and turned up the filth and trash coming out of your mouth.

You owe me and my 9 year old son an apology. Why should we have to turn off the range channel if we don’t want to hear F… this and F… that every other word? If I had my way you would be done flying in Aces High. You sure spoiled it for a dad and son who were simply trying to have a good time together in a hobby we share.  Please come to the con. I will bring an extra bar of soap for your mouth.  Ivory work ok for you?

its just like the ch. 200 if u dont wanna hear it u dont have to listin. im not tryin to be an bellybutton but i dont think this game is right for a 9 year old cuz most the ppl that play are 18+ and do cuss on the radio ch. if u dont want ur son to hear that kind of language then i think u should find a better game to play with him or use that little squelch voice button  for the ppl that u know cuss on the range ch.

Bologny TrueKill,

why squelch it, all of it, in doing the squelch thing you are basically saying sure go ahead we condone the filthy vulgar language, we will just squelch it and you can carry on, and talk garbage as you please.
well so if you squelch the range vox channel, if it is doable, (I know you can squelch Channel 5  or the V channel , I not sure how to squelch the local range channel), you will not be able to hear anyone else or relay info back and forth, you can squelch a person per log in, but why should daddog, me, or anyone else have to continously squelch certian players everytime we log on so we don't have to hear this stuff?

Here is an Idea, act like you got some manners and was not raised by heathens,  Aces High is no place for Filthy, vulgar language, a slip here or there is with in reason but to continously to blurt foul mouthed words out every other breath  is not wanted here........I may be wrong but I would hope to think the majority in the game feel the same way.  A slip  or 2 is ok, but to do it day in and day out is unbecoming.........and if allowed to continue it will drag the standards of the AH community to a whle new low level......

so do you want it to be allowed? or do you want it stopped....except for an occassional slip up or 2 ?

but don't tell a  paying customer/member they need to find some other game genre for them and their kid unless you are part of the HTC paid staff..to me that is flat out wrong,  Any person here with kids has the right to let their kids do as they see fit, and noone here should tell another how a parent should mind their children......

If you had kids and I told you what you should do with them you would take offense I am sure............the situation is different when the shoe is on the other persons foot......

I am not angry TrueKill..I just making an opinionate Statement




oh yeah, why can you type  Golly-gee   in the text online ingame, but you can't type ****?  ( <--was watermelon if it is stripped)

I mean, come on,  the first is 10 times worse than the second to some if not most........

People in AH say the Old ( Vet ) players should lead and guide the newer players, how do you suppose we do this, if we can not even control the vulgar filthy language problems, and when others only reply on the boards or in the game is "just squelch them"  all that does is say sure scum mouth go ahead is ok to talk that way.....

Film this stuff, and take snap shots ( Alt S  = snapshot ) ( Alt R = film on ) and email it to
support@hitechcreations.com

just maybe if people who DO NOT condone this stuff take the time to make a film or snapshot and email it in, maybe HTC will see there is a problem and start suspending  or banning people to get the message across.....

Range channel is part of the game play, channel 200 is not. I don’t need channel 200 to warn guys about cons in different directions, or explain what targets to hit, or give specific directions to where the panzer is hiding near the field or tell what direction the buffs are coming from and how many fighters are wtih them. I do for the range channel. Oh well, yes I suppose I could type it all out just so other can spew thier filth and I would not have to listen to it. :rolleyes:

My son has an interest in WWII aircraft. It is only natural he would want to fly also. Why should I have to move on with him to some other sim because some players can’t keep their mouth civil or clean?

Im sorry you and your son have to put up  with this behavior. I believe pilots in WW2 allied or axis were mostly gentlemen, doing what they thought was right. Most were educated and this kind if language was for thugs and inbred social outcast.
They also had to answer to their peers for their behavior.
Being frustrated is no excuse, anger is no excuse, and low breeding is no excuse!
I hope to see you and SonDog up soon

well TrueKill,
first I told you I was not angry,  and I also said it is not possible to squelch range vox,  if you like flying with the cussing foul mouthed type people and you enjoy it so much , then why can you not pick a private channel and cuss on it,  should the many  have to type and squelch each individual cussing person each time they log on? You just said you like to partake in cussing in the game, so if you insist why not take it to a squad vox channel or a private vox channel, and try to keep it off of local range vox,  text 200 is a point you have it is tuned to if people want it......

I thought hitechcreations developed this online sim for all, I did not know it was designed for adults only, as you stated AH is no place for a kid........

I myself as many others have asked individuals to please try and clean up there text or voicings before in polite ways.......

I see that you , and your cussing friends you named earlier are the new breed of AH......
you want it your way and to hell with everyone else that was here before you came and before your cussing friends came..........

I guess it might be time to cut this one loose and go find a more mature online flight sim, where people have character with their taunts, show dignity and respect to others, and don't  insist on ruining the fun for others around them....by their imature childish antics...


last person told me they was 40 years old and could talk like they wanted too it was a free country, well  it is crap like that, that has degraded this country.

I sure hope this thread don't get locked, and I would like to see someone from HTC respond to this thread with their  opinion of what is acceptable and what is not......

maybe some in this game should go back and re read the TOS

That's BS truekill.

Perhaps we should all keep our children from going to McD's because there is someone there who says, "I want a Big Mac...no f**k that, I want a quarter pounder, no f**k that I want a Big Mac."

It's called personal responsibilities.  Just because you want to or feel like you can curse doesn't mean that it's someone else's responsibility to keep their kids away from where you curse.

Like it or not, AH is not a 'private' forum where everyone is just like you.  There are children playing AH and it certainly isn't their 'fault' that they are there and hearing your language.

I didn't have a reason to go to the con anymore since Mr. Black has disappeared but I'll go now just to have Daddog's back.

He can vent all he wants to in the privacy of his own home.  Doesn't mean he has to curse over vox.  Especially when someone asks him not no because of young children.

What does seeing films of actual people in actual wars have to due with justifying you cursing in a game????

Are you truly daft or just pretending?

YOU are not going to die because you didn't like the way the game played out.  If you feel the need to curse then scream bloody hell in your home.  That doesn't mean you need to push the button that sends it across the vox also.

WRONG Skull

I was a Sailor,  at the time I cussed like a Sailor,  but still, not around Mom, not infront of a Lady or my elders, and as I have grown older on slips hear and there....you can control it, you just got to want to control it.....


but some people do it because they think they are Kewl...big ole maucho men ,  you know like a youngster in school gigling when they say their first cuss word around their friends .........I am sure you can relate,



and as Drunky has stated, you can do it in your home, I would assume everylast one of us has done this, but we was coherent enough to know not to push the vox key to announce it to everyone, and some accidently do and they usually will apologize for it.....I know I cuss myself if I mess up and cause myself to get sent to the tower for a dump maneuver or mistake, but I try to make it a point not to announce it on local range or squad vox, not saying it has never happened, but  it  seldomly does only by accident....
