Guys,
Its imperative to embrace new people and any Warbirds converts if we are to prevent the same fate. I know for some, being a chann 200 Tower Jokey or a a-hole to noobs is how you want to speed your 15 bucks, but it is detrimental to the longevity of the game and we should not continue to tolerate it. Basically if you are giving your middle finger to noobs, your giving it to the game in the long run and discouraging new people from playing the game. "noobs" are what keep the vitality of the game and the community alive.

Good point Ardy.

You have nothing to worry about with Warturds going down any time soon, even though it should have flushed itself long before now. Good ole LiarBill has supposedly contracted with some British graphics/software company to upgrade the graphics and supposedly add some new aircraft...I guess in some way putting paint on a turd makes it less like a turd.

Why anyone with the sense of a flea would feel that paying $24/month (it's that much if you want the VIP package) for bad flight models and ancient graphics is worthwhile or fun is beyond me but there are supposedly a lot of people still doing just that. Even with all the things people seem to find wrong here, this is state of the art extreme flight simulation compared to Warturds.

I never paid for a premium account, I was sort of wondering why you would. What dio you get for your extra 10 bucks?
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.

If you check the scores for the Main Arena there have been 528 pilots
so far for this ToD in the Fighter category.
Maybe it is not as dead as it appears.
