HTC gets $15 a month from us I think thats enough.

We have already got 3 types of B25. What we want is at least one accurate, relaistic day time Mossie cos that is when we use it. I would have thought adjusting the existing plane is allot easier than bringing out another version. If we are going to have a second Mossie I would like a no guns high speed bomber with drones to spend my perk points on. A bit like a 234 with a 4000lb load, a bomb sight and a bit cheaper than the 234. ;)



You get to play Aces High and that is enough for your $15.
There for you do not get to give you opinion.

I beg to differ, ive given it and you have acknowledged it. Should you choose to ignore it is beside the point:p :cool: :D

I would like to add however that I have run my own businees succesfully for 15 years and have always tried to remember not to take criticism of it personally. I hope that HTC makes it s decisions on a proffesional commercial basis as knee jerk reactions are usually counter productive and regretted in the long run  ;):lol :rofl

Yarbles: You seemed to miss the point of my post.

You were telling some one that they could not give a good opinion of Aces High because they payed their $15 and did not ow us any thing else.


I was just using the exact same logic as you did, there by stating that your $15 purchased the right to play Aces High, and we owed you nothing else.

I shall explain and all will be clear (pompous over bearing slightly self mocking inflection in voice here)

The Mosquito (bare with me here) was 66% without dampers and dampers were for night opperations. (according to my fellow mosquito supporters) and we do not fly night opperations in AH.

Clearly (therefore based on the evidence as stated so far, and without beating around the bush) HTC got it wrong. (Believe it or not it happens to me sometimes as well).

So dear old Krusty starts suggesting because the other 3rd were equipped with dampers (for night opperations which we don't fly) this is representative. Now if HTC was a shy backward schoolchild I could understand making this illogical and mathematically incorrect excuse for what based on the evidence is poor research. However we are mostly adults so I dont think it necessary to "gloss over" something which clearly allot of paying subscibers feel strongly about.

Now (Patronising Ironic tone here) I think in very many ways AH is a brilliant game well executed and way beyond my understanding. We are all grown up here though (I hope) and when HTC gets it wrong (on the evidence) Well do we need these half baked excuses which i dont consider compliments. If however all HTC wants is pats on the back maybe that should be made explicit in the forum rules          :rolleyes: :rofl

Yarbles: I made no post or insulation about the correctness or incorrectness of the model.

I simply told you in an indirect way that your logic should apply both ways, and that you were breaking rule #4 by not posting in a respectful fashion.

And your last post is still pushing the limits of rule # 4.

2 Points

1) What Krusty said did not constitute "expressing a good opinion".

2)  If criticism equals disrespect and is cesured under "rule 4" what happened to free speech?

Anyway I think we should leave it there:)

Hmmm cant help being a smart bellybutton and saying its a moral as well as a Legal concept and exists because people believe in it and its value. It cannot by nature be imposed i.e. you cannot force people to be free. With the utmost RESPECT do you think it would exist if it were left solely to governments and courts to look after. We all have a reponsibilty to uphold values of this tyoe especially if we find our selves in a position of power. (In my opinion of course)

And I am aware that I might be breaking a rule I do agree with here about Hi Jacking threads so please no on goad me cos all I really care about is Mossies being set free:)

Yarbles:

1. Do not try a free speech argument. (if you wish to be respected)

2. Do not try the wounded duck. "I just want the Mossie to be free" (if you wish to be respected)

3. Do not try belittle other peoples posts. (if you wish to be respected)

4. Do not confuse a debate and disagreement with being respectful (if you wish to be respected)

And a question.

What is the first thing you should do when you have dug yourself in a hole?

I dont agree and (with respect) I dont think you have taken on board any of what I have said so far. I am not interesred in respect from people who claim to speak on behalf of a community simply because they have power over it. As our friend here said "there can be only one winner here" and we both know why that is;) and where your respect comes from.

Huh? How did this get into a "Krusty's voice doesn't count" issue?

[Edit: I mean to say, I didn't see an attack on my post or anything from yarble's response. Seemed more like he was directing it to HTC than to me. *shrug*]


FYI: 1/3 of a very large number is somewhat representative, in my book. We're not talking 30 special one-off planes, we're talking hundreds of planes.

So what, to you, would be the cut-off-point for "representative"?

1/2? 2/3? 3/4? 100%?

1/3 of all 109G6s had 30mm, and we had that option (before it was decided to give us the "early" G-6, where it wasn't so representative). We might just as well campaign for a 190A8 without the aux tank to horribly destabilize its flight patterns -- only, a sizable chunk of all 190A8s had this tank. Either way, what we WANT is nicer, but what we HAVE is still fairly accurate.

Like I said, it would be nice, but I think some folks are blowing the argument out of proportion.
