Mig23 vs F4E vs SAMs

Where? I have not seen this, and it sounds like something a PNG would have happened for.

There’s no reason to know where it is or was. We saw it, HT saw it, it was locked or deleted.i happened.

Then he gives a feeble excuse why we should see it. What happened to it is not your concern. You are not due proof.

I don't care what he's claiming to be. What I care about is how blatantly everything in my two quotes has been thrown into the trash. Respect is a thing of the past for this place and I'm not just saying that because of the way talk of other games is so viciously attacked. I grew up playing this game and I looked to many of the top class folks as examples of how to behave towards one another, but if tried to do that now I'd end up in jail. It's all gone. It's so sickening. But at least the fire will keep me warm a little while longer.

No ine ever said nver ever mention other games.

What you’ve seen is a group of 4-5 who exploit loopholes to do it in a negative fashion to OUR game. Which normally is followed by degrading OUR game. Such things as mentioning making it a purpose to post their game in every thread possible, even in Scenario announcements. Its nit that its done it’s how it’s done. This is more about one group of DISGRUNTLED FORMER PLAYERS in effort to bring our game down and promote their own.

None of these post are from current players.

They use 5 yr old hand caught in cookie jar excuses to repeat repeat repeat.telling us “ you can’t stop us”.

We even had firmer players of 15 yrs run a 128 page thread about their game while talking negative about OUR game.

If you think that is ok then you are misguided, probably intensionally.

It’s not that other games can’t be mentioned uts about who is doing it and why. Their lame excuses make why apparent. It’s not for the good of OUR game the way they do it and why.

It’s vindictive postings by a small group of former disgruntled players hoping for a migration to kill this one iff and get seasoned vets in their game.

Nothing more, nothing less.

You know what they say about opinions. No one posting here has any authority here. Seeing some pretending otherwise is amusing though so don't stop.

You are one of them. We don’t care what your immature butt thinks.
You are trash.

This comment alone shows why you get beat down. No sympathy for the stinky mutt

How did those threads get locked?

Here you go, a digruntled former player pushing it on us against our will. A 72 yr old child.

Grow up

It was a couple of years ago I think, I doubt the post exists anymore. I doubt HTC is going to leave something like that up. I don't know what the punishment was, but obviously not a PNG.

I don't care what he's claiming to be. What I care about is how blatantly everything in my two quotes has been thrown into the trash. Respect is a thing of the past for this place and I'm not just saying that because of the way talk of other games is so viciously attacked.

It's so sickening. But at least the fire will keep me warm a little while longer.

I read through the post, though I don't recall it when it happened. Seems like it worked itself out and Skuzzy's response was exactly as I described HTC's stance on discussion of other competing games, seeing as it wasn't ever locked. The OP reads to me like a light-flattery post for the AH3 beta followed by a "check out this other game" sort of post. Then some folks get upset about it, then OP issues a longer post clarifying some points. Everyone hugs and makes up. We'll never know the true intentions of the OP.

It would be similar to me going to the IL2 forum and posting about how BoX is pretty fun, but everyone should definitely go check out Aces High III as well and if anyone needs help getting into it, just PM me! I'm sure a reasonable person such as yourself can understand how that sort of thing comes across to a playerbase dedicated to a game. I say this as someone who plays IL2 semi-regularly.

You also have to understand that there are handful of doom & gloomers on this forum who do nothing but paint the game in a negative light. For whatever reason, they don't play anymore but find comfort in making sure everyone knows their opinion on why the game sucks. That's their prerogative, but I think it's unfair to hate on the folks who defend the game and continue to enjoy it.

If I walk into a Ford dealership and start talking about how much Ford sucks and I hate Ford and Dodge is a superior company with better vehicles, I don't think I'd get a welcoming reception by the people that work there. It isn't any different here.

If the several of us who played the game for years not so recently didn't post here some of you would have nothing to post about except complaints about the game or how others play. We're doing you a service. No thanks needed.

[Animl-AW]

Pretty damn ironic players who haven’t played in 10-15 years think its ok to dominate another game’s forum degrading our game and prompting their own. And in their own words you can’t stop them

That’s a mental illness

That’s low life why they have no good standing in the community, at all
Yet a mere mention of this game in their forums gets deleted and reprimand.

They will claim its just me, it’s a lot of current players who whip them the bird for the 101th time

I wasn't talking about you. I'm glad you think you are doing god's work, though. The majority of your posts are in locked threads so I'm not sure how that is beneficial.

A quieter forum isn't necessarily a bad thing.

[AKIron]

Less vitriol is better but the point of this forum is conversing. I don't start political threads which are invariably closed but I might give my unsolicited opinion therein now and then. Sometimes I get dinged for it, sometimes not. The rules about being respectful are obviously gone with the wind.   

[AKIron]

I will add that I find it ironic that politics and religion were banned from here years ago (2007?) because they often led to disrespect. We ditched those but kept the disrespect.

As someone who did work in retail for 10 years, that's a challenge to turn that guy's opinion around.

I used to do this all the time, and loved seeing these changed opinions walking in week after week, all it takes is open honesty in delivering the facts and good points of what you are trying to sell.
To be honest, by acknowledging your own products weak points then stating multiple positives and and advantages while being open and honest about it, you actually gain a more loyal customer once turned, as you have developed trust in yourself as the representative and the product you're endorsing.

If you cannot deliver opposing arguments and more positives because you are spending 100% of your time shutting down any opposing view, well... You've not only lost trust but you risk losing a wider audience as they start to question "why are they getting shut down" and go off to research for themselves.
And what I have just mentioned is the beginning of the slippery slope of customer hemorrhaging.

negative fashion to OUR game.

Our game. So go eat a dick.

This is why I believe you are number 1 for AH losing people; I ask a valid question and you clap back telling me what I am or am not due.

You're not an authority on what I am or am not due, who the diddly do you think you are?

If you want to discredit someone and proof of such is called upon, stamping your feet and saying "you're due the proof" like some empty headed fool is easily the most idiotic action you can possibly take and ruins any and all of your own argument.

You have just discredited yourself and invalidated your accusation, whether or not it's true.

Which proves it's not the subject of a post that's the issue...

Here we have ppl getting their panties in a wad over a video game..

Some ppl are born to complain and whine which is easier for them than trying to share ideas with civil conversation...
