This one is a bit less cryptic:

And this one is however even more so:
"It would be nice to be more open with you, but things are going on at iEN which can effect WBIII greatly (outside of code). (HotSeat)"

Regarless of what you fly, if you think it is wonderful when ANY flgiht sim goes out of business, you are crazy.
Think about what you would have had WB not been here. Nothing, actually. Think about what you would have had if WB were not here last year? 30 bucks a month.
I would hate to see them go, just like I would hate to see HT or CRS go. Think about it and be nice.

Ummmm...
A) Way to feed the troll. Of course, you should always take the first post by someone named "hehe" seriously.
B) I don't believe anyone owes Warbirds anything. The price plan was not Warbirds driven... it was the other way around.
C) Both sims are in existance because of Air Warrior... and we owe its creators a big thanks for getting HT and Pyro hooked.
D) We also owe iEN a big vote of thanks for driving HT and Pyro away. If they hadn't, we would not have Aces High. Of course, that same management finesse is responsible for the current situation... but ce la ve.

LOL!!
Note:
I wish WB well! With that said, I always thought the iEN would fail. Please remember that WB is a very good sim.....the company the operates WB...well, I never respected iEN...mostly due to customer service. (IMO)

I was refering to what was cryptic. I'm not in agreement that if WB's went away (I could careless about iEN) that such an event would be 'something wonderful'

Westy...I'm sure most folks understand what you said. I sure most folks in AH would hate to see WB (the flight sim) fade away.

"Something wonderful is about to get happen"
You are about to get laid? :D
Or Get more brain power? :rolleyes:
-
IMO it will only be "something wonderful" IF
A Someone buys Warbirds from iEN, someone hopefully with better management.
B That same someone fires Hotseat and gets someone in there who can write good code.
Only thing I've seen out of HS in 2 + years that works is a single plane, the B-24.
He didn't write the graphics code, thats leased. The strat system is still non existant. Just exactly what CAN HS do right?

For iEN:
Mgmt Effectiveness
Return on Equity (TTM)
NM
(Odd, this is an important economical key number for investors) Return on Assets (TTM)
-85.79
Wow. This is *bad*
Return on Investment (TTM)
-115.26
Even worse.
Profitability
Gross Margin (TTM) %
94.44
Err. Doesn't look too too. Even looks bad.
Operating Margin (TTM) % -73.44
Eeeek!
Profit Margin (TTM) %
-74.11
-74.11% Woot?!? Definitely NOT good.
Tech stocks falling has made a bad situation worse for iEN. And management is doing a piss poor job. If this had been a company in a traditional sector, bankrupcy wouldn't be far away.
These are just the economic numbers.
