I can take criticism Sky, maybe not as well as some. The whining about the big map started a month before anyone tried it. Now it's been in use for not even 3 days and some have done nothing but complain. It's just gotten tiresome.

BTW Sky, I've respected the AK's long time too though I didn't fly with them on TSN/INN, was a WingWalker back then.

Is there another map to take it's place?

Well, no... you're stuck with this one until they redo other maps or release other ones they are working on. The old terrains don't support the new zone area and thusly can not be used by the server.

Be patient... I remember playing the game with 30-60 people online on the beta maps with large flight times between the bases. It's only a matter of time before the bandwidth and hardware can support 800+ players to fill this map... what do you think the point of larger maps are?

Ahhh yes, WWIron. I remember you. Didn’t you come in towards the end of RB ? Not many of us RB'rs left flying. I remember creating four new SW tourneys for RB, two of which were duds and I also remember the criticism Hagen and I took for those duds…it helped us to make a better tourney as I am sure all the criticism the AK’s have taken on this map will help them to create a better one. It’s all trial and error.

SkyVon, I was a TSN subscriber before RB was available so no, I was there at the beginning. In fact, I was the first member of the WingWalkers, well, actually there were two of us that created the squad, me and Lukster, but he never was very active.

Ok, yes...its coming back to me. I was thinking Ace created the WW's; my mistake. You ever hear from him? He was a good guy

I left TSN in early '93, duty called, tour in Korea. INN was dying by the time I returned. WW's became active again in Flying Circus and I participated for a while. Then we moved on to RBII. Tried to generate interest for Aces High when it went beta. No takers so I joined the AK's who were active in AH.

I remember Ace but have had very little contact with any of the WW's in the last couple of years.

Iron, don't listen to the idiots. It's a GREAT map. Lots of interesting tactics you can use to do base captures etc.

Hats off Iron.
