I mean, you've even made me a bit annoyed. Just chill, stop treating this place like its your own (it ain't) and behave like adults.

New community - so that means you don't have the same status or position as in the old one. Don't whine about that - work on it instead. And, don't work on it by whining about it   :).

Just chill.

For 14.95 a month, it's just as much thiers as it is your's, status is pretty much the same too  :)

Is not!

erhm.. whatever it is... Kieren, it's been awhile since we did battle... can't remeber what the reasons were before but who cares... that fact is... is that I am right and you are so clearly wrong.

The reason? Simple; you refused to acknowledge my obvious and extensive intellectual superiority. It's cool though, I'm used to it by now.  ;)

I am all for getting new players into the game and all but you and your little buddy Arlo havent exactly gone about things the right way, imo. You come in taking pot-shots at the game calling it Aces Hoes and stuff like that and now you are looking for a favorable reaction from the crowd here? Sure you laugh it off and say that its all in good humor, but seriously, what would your reaction have been if we had done the same while you were over there in AW?

I called it Aces Hoes? Hmm, didn't know that..

My reaction woulda been like it is now, hehe. And, I woulda called you a troll...

See how it is,  New folks come in and everyone is shook up.  Thats Healthy  :D

I came from AW, though it was like 6 months ago.  Iv got to defend these guys some.

Perhaps they have ruffled some feathers, but they are not exactly unknown.  Some of the New arrivals this week are guys that were loyal until the bitter end. These are the Salwart, hardworking player and exstaff. Many of them have had over 10years of flying and working with AW.  

I think as you get to know them, I think there passion for FlightSims, Aviation History, and Aircraft will rival the best anywhere.  

These arent the dweebs that some are painting them as. This group isnt the type to jump from place to place.  They will be putting down roots. Many of these Men and Women will contribute alot this game.

Here is the thing, Aces High, HiTech Creation and the AH community will all end-up benifeting from their join the community here.  

Just my humble opinion

Just chill.

Yup.  Chill guys.  Don't anybody jump to conclusions about the new guys in town or the community already here.  I'm a relative newcomer to online flight sims but I've been in AH a little while so when new names come onto the board and start trying to change things before they have given them a chance even I get protective of little ol' HTC.

AW Guys, consider this:  You DO have talents and experience to offer AH as a whole.  What you do NOT have is the respect of most of the players.

Why?  Because they do not know you.

Solution:  Take the time to let people get to know you in here before complaining that you aren't understood or appreciated.  Don't try to make things happen your way on day one.

As Santa said: chill   :cool:

Hehe ... that's some perception problem, there. Hell ... I don't even use the "UBB sucks purple monkey balls" tagline. (Even though it does.) ;)

Just out of curiosity, is it a AW custom to quote every single post before (or after) replying to it?

I mean I understand you do it when there's allot of posts in between your reply and the one you want to reply to or when you want to reply to a certain phrase, but many times it's really not necessary (IMHO)
