Aces High General Discussion / Re: NEW YouTube channel

How do you know exactly which post you got warned for? I don't believe SMF has that type of thing.

Because my reply was included in the warning in my email from dcs forum. I only make maybe 1 post every 2 mos.

Aces High General Discussion / Re: NEW YouTube channel
« Last post by Eviscerate on Yesterday at 10:01:55 AM »

In that other sim thread, someone asked if anyone thought more planes would be made, my reply: “ Ummm No” it was reported by the one above and I was warned. So THINK, they are exploiting the drain hole at your expense. You are doing their work. As long as its allowed the game is allowed doomed 2x faster. I don’t fight god. Its a co-op against us.

Careful about too much effort to attract short attention spans. If they have the mentality of instant gratification personality, it may be your wrong target crowd as they also won’t stay in the game to get past the learning curve. I’ll call it the Steam Effect.  They try it, but don’t stay. Its kinda putting all your eggs in one basket. He flight sim crowd is not the same audience, IMO.

To be honest, I won’t go after leap-frog players.  5k+ views on 4 vids. 40% watched until the end. Those that view to the end are the ones I target. The ones who don’t get past 10-30 secs I’m not after them. They don’t have the patience to get past any learning curve.

I joined WWII aviation groups on FB then posted a vid. I’m not waiting for them to come to me, I went after the crowd that already has the interest and mindset. I saw little to no impact on sim threads.

They sure did like the MotA concept, before my vid. The movie helped us. Once that my vid wore out so did any number climb.

I removed my YT link here to see who finds it outside the bubble. Our own players don’t count in reaching out.

5k views may have drawn 30-50 players, 10 MAY have stayed. In 100 views I may get 3 to try 1 to stay.

IMO, going after that crowd MAY mean the no sub crowd too. They don’t stay anywhere very long.

Experiment, but I don’t suggest all eggs in one basket.

Adding YT subs vid playlist helps round out my snoozer vids.

That said, I’m not going to waste my time drawing them in just to get with sales of other games here. I’m just drawing them into a corner for others to feast on. you may draw them in but others are waiting at the front door, ya just did 90% of their work. Your gain was just cut by 50%. I don’t work for them, and won’t, period. Don’t get sucked in.

I don’t feed stray dogs, I want them as uncomfortable as possible in staying

Never thought about BT. I'm not sure if my new gaming PC supports that as is. However, I could get an adapter.

Seriously.  I could definitely see stuff like long haul trucking being mostly AI in 5 years.  Maybe still Human for final mile.

If illegal non English speaking immigrants employed by corrupt corporations can handle it,  I see AI futher increasing trucking firms profits in the very near future..

Caught on film what we all know for a long time. The most vocal on 200 channel accusing other players for what this player is doing himself. His name, last on the list on the film, it was highlighted for everyone to see. The player is squadmates with another player that does the same thing are Bish. Their squad and their country should hold them accountable and be called out on it. They should not be protected because they know.
