Guys,
I do apologise if this post has come across a little harsh, like others here now that I read it again it does seem a little strong. So that I do apologise for and ask if you guys can forgive me for that. Was having a bit of a bad day. So again I apologise.
You guys also have to understand that I fly in the European time zone. So a lot of the guys that don't fly in that time won't really see me. I agree with a lot of you as in the training corps is in a bit of a mess. But it's in the process of being fixed.
The point of view that I was trying to put across was that I can't be avalable all the time. It's just not possible. at the moment 90% of my flying is done in the training arena just so I can be there to sort things out for people who are around and also occasionaly sort out some of the many player based problems that are caused from the training arena. It really bugs me when I see a post playing down what we do. Because to be honest there ain't a lot of us and those of us we are put a lot of time into trying to help people.
I am not trying to play us up. Because to be honest all we are is just a bunch of pilots who have been flying here for a while trying to help other people of our own backs. It really vex's me when people come out with messages like
If your a trainer and someone asks for help, go to the TA promptly.
If your a trainer and you get a free account, and someone asks for help, you best get your bellybutton TO THE TA ASAP.
If you don't like people squeaking because there's no trainers available....tough. Fix it.
This does not help anybody. It just up's the anger in conversations because you are trying to coment on something that you have not experienced.
As I said, we are looking for trainers. PLEASE anybody who thinks they are up to the challange email me. I will put you forward because we need good people and pilots who are willing to help the community.
And Viper, my message was harsh but not that harsh mate. You know who I am, you fly in the training arena and I have seen you around. Please don't try and make a bad situation worse.
I am just trying to do my job like a lot of other people. I just do what I think is right, if you guys disagree with that then fine. That's your problem.
If the fact that I don't pay subscription troubles some of you then fine. Hell, I am happy to pay. I never asked not to have to pay, and if not paying means that I am unable to fly my own missions in the MA and not be able to go into the main arena without being obliged to train somebody when I am trying to relax then fine. I am happy to do that.
Yes, for those who asked we are starting to pull together some sort of training roster so you will know when we are going to be in the arena.
Again I apologise for the harshness of my message.
