Years ago, HT would post a number of planes to vote on and they would make a plane according to the winner. HT would do good to take a vote on this message board we have now, to see if the people like it or not. In the Forums a few people like it, but on line so far, I've talk with or hear other people talking, no one like's it.

I like it. Glad they turned it back on.
-
I think allowing players to vote on certain things gives them a sense of ownership of the game. I see no harm in that.

Do you realize you never described what your talking about?

I like it too, I see no issues with it as it is now. So far your out voted :)

Keep and tweak..
-
HiTech said he won't turn it off so no vote needed
-
A simple check box to toggle between the new system message behavior and last week's behavior.
-
hitech do something, hitech does something, no, not that. do something else.
if we were to vote on changes, nothing would get done.
as an example this thread, first i thought it was a vote on new airplanes, then to get rid of one plane. now i have no idea what the vote it's for.

I like it overall. But I'd prefer it was a different t shade of color of your own kills or other host messages
-
I am talking about letting the players vote on whether to keep the new message board or not.
-
So far there are two or three that like it according to this forum. However there are plenty of people on line in the game that does not. I say put on the Forum for a week with a No or Yes ballet. At the end of the week , the most yes votes, you keep it, the most No votes , go back the previous way.

I like it, its how it used to be back in AH1

We have a new message board?

I see no reason why ontos shouldn't ask for this..I mean it's reasonable to ask for something to be added or taken away even tho you can do it yourself with two clicks from your mouse... History has proven that with the removal of cross country PMs because people didn't want to have to click to squelch that player themselves
-
A main arena vote would be good. I see no point for this every kill shown message announcement. Or Hitech should Make it a second message box that can be toggled on and off. I haven't really seen positive reviews for it in game. If a person kills my friendly and I see him do it. I now know who that enemy is and can adjust my playing style accordingly. I really don't see much how it improves the game or doesnt improve the game tbh. I know a lot of players don't like their names showing up when they die. So I presume it may cause even more timidness.
A real improvement would be to get rid of the stupid yak3 and minorly park all of these stupid BnZ planes that make for boring easy game play.
-
I like it, think you find the people that like something arent going to talk about it.
-
It does act like a "motivating factor". Some times without it...the arena looks bleak. When kill after kill is going off the charts-LITERALLY, it is a OK where is this fight at. Might be on another front,but gets you looking JMHO :aok
-
look at it this way. pay attention who's killing who and switch if you want. otherwise switch and find a big darbar full of friendlies.

Keep it!

There are LONG threads on this forum lamenting about how HiTech is letting this game die. When he makes a change to attract more players AND is even courteous enough to let us know his reasoning the complaining begins anew.
Kudos to HiTech for trying to entice new players to stick around.
Leave it!
-
One can simply disable it. No need to be removed from all. I personally don't like it so I edited it out.
-
It can only be edited out by removing all system messages such as fields taken, hangers down etc. I vote put it back the way it was or give it a check box in message window settings to allow us to choose or disable the all kills message.
-
The other messages are useful. I'd really like it to be on its own channel rather than losing all the other HOST stuff within the spam.

I agree with that. It isnt as much a problem for those using VR, we can drag each window into different places with no issues. Look left for chat, look right for system messages. The Tilde key expands one and shrinks the other...just map a button and bliss :lol
-
I look at it this way, all this is doing is promoting Poor Gameplay, in the form of furballin & spawned camping. And if that is the type of sim that the players here want, then it is time for me take my $15 and go other places.

It does make the arena look busy...

I can't believe it took this long for someone break out the "Else I'm gonna quit!" threat.

Of all the reasons I've seen people give, this one seems a bit odd. Regardless of what comes through in the spam IMO people are going to play the way they're going to play regardless.
But, straws and camels I guess.

Apparently it's going to be that way when he leaves. :rofl

Let HiTech change the settings. He sees the big picture better than anyone.
He will get AH going again. Just be patient.

I vote to keep it. Reminds me of the old days on Air Warrior. Doesn't bother me at all. :airplane:

THIS^^^^ This and I have heard far more of the "Well I hated it at first...but I kind of like it now" than I hear of "This is POO...blah blah". Its change....Yes. Do folk HONESTLY think Dale is deliberately shooting himself in the foot? I saw his 5 yard, .45, range day target he posted in the "Flippy Floppy" post....pretty sure he would be walking on nubs by now :rofl
-
Will be voting with my wallet.
-
For what it's worth: This is a strange hill to die on.
-
Amazing how such little things can cause so much consternation... it's almost as if this game was played by nothing but cranky old geezers.
I'm gonna go yell at the sky now.
-
I had no idea this one statement I purposed would cause sooooo much trouble...
I'm so proud of myself.

I hear that McDonald's is putting 2 less fries in a package now. A lot of noise about a revolt and 4 or 5 people never going there again.

Off Topic...but you are gonna get to loving Pedals instead of twisty. It takes a few hours but you will get it :x Was too busy fighting and running the "Kill Log" too fast to respond in game :rofl

Unless Im mistaken all of this is Hitec's sandbox... we are just over to play around... He can build any castle he wants...If he wants our opinion he will ask for it.

Anyone is welcome to state their opinion on this board, as long as they state it respectfully, and don't blow a gasket when I don't do what they wish.

"Respect" I do not think you know what that word means. (Princes bride accent in my head).

thanks to Aretha Franklin I can spell R E S P E C T!!!!

What I do mind, is people not respecting those who make a request in the first place, which is often met with sarcasm. Big problem there.
-
At the bottom of Hitech's post profile is a little selection "for bribes".......maybe requests should be accompanied by a little something from the selection...... :old:
-
it already got voted on. you lost.

When did that occur?

Many times the OP fails to search the boards before posting. If they had, most of the time they find it has been posted before..... many times.

I am talking about people criticizing for what is posted, not what has been posted before.

I agree, unfortunately this is not a democracy. The only vote one has here is with their pocket book
