Okay...Lets be honest with ourselves...Aces High is just as, if not more addicting then crack, cherry skoal and unlimited freeze (ice) pops combined x's 10!  For the most part out community is of adult age, but time and time again we find outself losing restraint and staying logged in for that extra flight(s) when we really should be attending to our family...job....school work ect...

I would like to see Aces High add a "parental control" timer to the game to us adults who dont have the best restraint can actually live a semi normal life outside of aces high! lmao, this sounds corny but im dead serious...What if this timer could be set by the user, and only changed through amending the time with a master password?  I know I shouldnt be spending more then 2 hours in the game per day, but I do it anyways...I think this would be like tobacco companys selling nicotine gum or the patch...they still win...HTC still get's its 15 a month, and there players are left drooling to come back for another 2 or 3 hours the next day!  If one had his timer set for two and a half hours, and it was a weekend and decided he wanted to stay in longer, after those 2 hours were up all he would have to do is amend the timer through options?  

Like I said, I know this sounds corny, and down right pathetic...but hey...I really doubt i'm the only one who doesnt have perfect control

UH, You might need counseling.

I'm as addicted to AH as anyone, but when I need to get to bed for work, thats what I do... When my daughter wants to do something, I go.  When my Girl friend says 'How much longer you gonna be in there' I tell her 1 hour and in one hour I'm done.

The only night AH owns me is Friday's.  Friday night is dedicated to AH and I stay on as long as the squad is having fun.

Why don't you spend 15 dollars on a timex watch with a timer and set it to your 'parental control' time.  I'd rather have HT coding stuff we need rather than coding fixes for your irresponsibilty.
