Disappointing WB players

Game play aside.   The one area I have long felt that the WB players have excelled, was the OT forum at agw.  With the influx of new WB players, I have not seen a corresponding increase of intelligent posts, in our OT forum.  Please check the BBS guys, OT is there.

I still chuckle when I watch the movie clip in this thread :) Mac gamers...poor souls we should pity them, donate PC's to their groups and try to re-introduce them back into society :)

MG and Cabby  !!  (shudder)    are you nuts,

On a serious note, agw is independant, so when WB players move to AH (me included) they still use the OT in agw.

And quite frankly it would take more than MG and Cabby to lift the standard of posts at AH   :D

alt.warbirdsiii.com is independant?  You may want to look up the definition of "independant".

I've never seen HTC remove threads from the O'Club... and I could probably count on one hand the threads that were locked (usually about 200 posts too late).

Basically... its not how the bbs is ran or who is running it in this case.  Its just how familiar you are with those posting there.

AGW is independant, it's not run by IEN.  It's a different message board than the "official" WB message board accessible from their webpage.  I guess everyone had been on AGW for so long they stay there.  You can't register though, maybe they are waiting for it to die?

Edit-

I guess (after visiting their actual website) there is need of clarification-

They have links to both, under "community" on their main page.

One goes to bbs.warbirdsiii.com

The other link goes to AGW.

I don't know why iEN has not tried to encourage players back to their own board and keep it all under one roof like HTC does. Although for all intents and purposes this is the iEN board. The WB team tend to ignore their own board and AGW is moderated by an iEN employee and you're not allowed to talk about the 'other' sims in the general forum.

Greese... I'm pretty sure AGW is ran on iEN servers.  That happened the same time it went from agw.dogfighter.com to agw.warbirdsiii.com.  Its not independant... though it is not managed with great scrutiny by iEN.  I believe Argo does a good enough job that iEN intervention isn't necessary... but it is a possibility.  AGW is not independant as long as it relies on iEN resources.

OK, let's get this totally straight :

AGW is hosted on an ien server, Argo decides totally what goes on and what is in it, posts don't get deleted, they may get moved or closed but never deleted.

AGW is totally independant, no fuss, no worries, no doubt.  Go try to register an account at AGW, you can't. Ask ien why not, they will tell you go ask argo, we just host it.

It tells you something about ien, go squeak, whine call em cun** and wank**s, they won't do a damn thing, why ? because it's argos board, and you know something else, you can do the same thing on their own board. Why ?  because it's a bulletin board.

However, this board !!!  last month HTC closed it down because of too many posts regarding the latest release, it may have been only closed for a few hours but it was CLOSED, full stop, period. You were gagged.

AGW ensures that no matter what, the players have a say, When you try the same here, forget it, you have two choices, toe the line or shut up. HTC needs a board that is not moderated by HTC, savvy ?  doubt it because the majority here are so far up HT's bellybutton he couldn't turn around without being whipped in the balls.

Don't get me wrong I like AH, it gives me more that warbirds did towards the end of my time there.  

I will now compose my own replies to this post

"you banana, we have more players that WB"

"A nice cup of shut the diddly up"

"We get more warbirds players than warbirds get from us"

"Get lost amazinhunk"


and so on
