Not even going to read all that.
Besides the fact that some have little to no concept of biz.
But what I did read,..lets take a walk back in time.
AW last days, struggling. Talk of other sims was not permitted directly on the forum.
Now, mind you, Dale, Pyro and a couple others came in and posted on the forum and announced on radio open beta for AH. I was there, I saw it first hand.
Let me tell you how many that POed. Why? Because it was drawing our base away at a seriously bad time. That's why it was forbidden, and the reason was proven.
Now, we all come over here, and guess what? You can't talk about other games on AH BBS. Shocking I know, weird it was me that came up with this concept in 2024. I wonder why they implemented that concept? You could not talk about other games here, in fact I think I got booted or time-out for doing exactly that. What goes around, comes around. And I was not alone.
Now, we had Bigweek, totally not connected to AW nor it's forums, totally a separate entity. There you could talk of other games, and way more over the top subjects.
Little Bear mentioned IL-2 forum allowing it it. Also note it's not in the main general, it's separate. Here, it's everywhere. Mention anything positive about AH, return players,.... you're going to see 3 letters pop up, almost subliminal,... DCS. IL-2 is rare. It's called skimming.
Burger King and McDonalds are both burgers. But some will claim they are different because BK broils theirs. Ok a difference,.. go ahead,.. walk in either with a competitor's product,.. you will be asked to leave. Any restaurant. DCS does it.
DCS ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT ALLOW ANY MENTION OF ANY OTHER GAME, who ever says they do is a liar. I know, I have the text from them. So that puts this game behind the 8 ball. They can mention DCS here, everyday, but like in the AW incident, you can't talk about it there. That is a major biz disadvantage, and the DCS players are scooping it up. And frankly,.. you're handing it to them and then crying about numbers. That is absurd oxymoron. You call me ridiculous? I have their text and posted it twice, here and AHII FB page,.. both times it was locked or removed. Talking bad about DCS in AH world got me in trouble?.. lets think about that.
The attitudes of SOME in here,.. I would not allow to run a hotdog stand on two wheels. They'd just send the customers elsewhere.
Just because it's too hard to manage and they just allow it, no matter how ridiculous, doesn't mean it's smart biz. People make biz mistakes every day.
SO they can mention their game here, but you can't mention AH there. THAT'S WHY. Ya sold your souls to DCS, and expect this to remain because game play there IS substandard and you need this for real action fix. Keep it up and this option won't be here, you'll be stuck with pretty planes and no fight to take it to.
I don't give 3 flying rats butts what people do or other games, promoting McDs in BK is ridiculous.
My biggest problem, i find it very hard to believe I would even have to explain this. This is basic 9th grade business class material.
Obviously AH Gods don't care, and obviously you have a number's problem. IL-2, does the same thing, has a numbers issue. Connecting the dots yet?
Not angry, not mad, I have much bigger fish to fry than paying attention to what someone post about me on a game bbs. it's not a life stopper.
I dubb the 3 who really stink up this place with undue drama as
Spinning Sparrow
Little Bear
Headless Horseman
Has anything I done, no matter how stupid, harmed you or this game? The object is cause no harm. And as for PMs,...shut up. Ya spew that same crap every day of your life. We've heard about Little Bear on 200. I'm sure poopy butt is your limit, right? Are you really that fragile? Or is lying your fav pass-time? How do you survive in the real world? Who ties ur shoes? When someone goes around making public statements calling me "Sexual Predator", you're about to have problems. Call me butt hole, idiot, whatever you can, don't care, I consider the source.. you post stuff like "Sexual Predator", you crossed a line that shall not end up as a happy memory for you. Refer to last paragraph.
Thank god there are decent well ground people here who I admire and respect,.. not everyone hates me, and that upsets those 3-5. It makes them crazy in their sleep. Because if those 3 were the impression of AH community, ya might as well call it the black plague. Your buddies? Would you allow them to crash your dinner party and act the fool?
But I will add this to show how petty they are,... they took someone they know went through hell they could not handle and kick him in the nads, wow true vikings. Pick on little girls too? And I have a saying about that,.. "you can kick me and have your way with me when I'm down and out and can't fight back,.. just remember one thing,... when you're done, it's my turn. And I have a damn good memory. You should pray you don't get the karma of what I lived. Karma is my best friend. "When your enemy's ship is sinking, don't waste anymore ammo,... just stand back and smile."
To those who are decent humans, sorry you had to read this.
