Hiya Easy,
When I say whats the point? I really would like to hear what this can possibily do, but start some trouble.
Actually I think that if it's done in a civil manner, it's actually helping nudge people off the "Everything but Warbirds Sux" fence. I've noticed several long time Warbird die hards that haven't had anything good to say about Ace High, kind of... shall we say...looking in the window?
Aces High is coming on strong, if ver 1.03 works well, (which I'm sure it will) AH is going to start to stick it's head above the currently available flights sims in almost every catagory. This word has to get to the masses. Even posts on AGW that get flamed (although its hard to find a post on AGW that isn't a flame war these days) get the attention of people.
Remember only a handful of the registered people at AGW actually post things there, most just read it. The people you see that feel obligated to dump on everything said about Aces High are for the most part a vocal minority, that just like to hear themselves talk. (so to speak)
If you go back and look at some of the first threads that people posted about Aces High, you'll find that all of them got jumped on and the authors were run off AGW on a rail. But look at the last one about 1.03. People are actually starting to talk intellegently about AH. Now will that thread turn into a flame war? Sure as God made little green apples it will. Every thread on AGW these days ends up like that. When was the last time you saw threads on AGW like the ones here in Help and Training where people ask questions and get helpful responses??
The folks at AGW are frustrated to no end with Warbirds and iEN and as such have a tendency to lash when as "outsider" threatens their world. But keep you voice low and calm, smile and talk intellegently and even the most frustrated will eventually start to listen. Besides remember the old saying, "There's no such thing as bad press"
