Most days the banter on 200 is worth the 15$ a month the game costs.
However I have seen a lot more trash talk, bad manners, and just plain out and out bruised ego's lately. Not to mention downright disrespectful, and out and out hateful garbage.
The good news is that the AH community does still have the ability to regulate itself. Thank you HTC!
And I'll take this opportunity to add one gentle reminder.
Everyone has more than enough frustration, anger, and unhappiness in their lives. No need to share yours with us. Leave it on your side of the monitor.
On the other hand no one gets as much respect, camaraderie, and good will as we deserve. Feel free to dispense it as needed. Its amazing how a little trickle of respect here & there sent to others will in time turn into a flood of respect coming back your way. Really, give it a try!
Yes we know you just ended up back in the tower. But if it was a worthy foe, step up, send that . And if you just won, what does it cost you to pull some of the sting from his defeat. A quick helps take the sting out of losing and encourages fair play.
It seems everyone forgets 2 simple facts.
A This is an online flight sim, EVERYONE DIES! Yes even HT
B If you just died, you made a mistake, someplace. Somewhere you made a decision that cost you. Rather than whine about it, or blaming someone else, learn from it.
