I will die on this hill... every time.
You have people deliberately abusing .rpt <------ They deliberately jump on my ankle and simply abuse .rpt because they know HTC WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.
The .rpt is no longer functioning as intended. Context matters, not just pulling out the .rpt log - look at the .rpts I made to no avail.
MOB RULE indeed. LOFL.
(Not about to call during Thanksgiving weekend for this podunk bs.)

I know it's probably an unpopular opinion. But I mostly agree that Shane is being ganged up on with report abuse. Getting muted for calling people a "weeb" or "weak sauce" for running/ganging is a bit too far. A lot of people use to talk trash back in the day when this occurred. And of course you don't have to turn to 200, you can squelch to not have to listen to that person. While Shane is quite a texter, I haven't really seen anything that is super bad for him to lose privileges for a week. I think our community has become a little too soft. Hell, back in the day, the community taught me so much about how to deal with smack talk online without running tell on them to daddy. It's going to happen since we can all hide behind fake names inside our house and never speak face to face with our real names on the line. I think yall need to get a bit tougher though for some of these posts I see Shane getting .rpt abuse for tbh.

Well his childish antics has won him another "chat suspension" could a PNG be coming soon here on the boards as well?

See, you're just on my ankle without even reading the above. And like those coordinating abuse of .rpt, it seems you're wanting to try the same with the BBS.
Vox Populi, indeed.

Nope, read it all...even the duplicate cuts. You just dont seem to understand that you are the one causing the issue. If you layed off cap and APP nothing would have come of it. Another bit of proof..... how many time has HTC rescinded the "chat suspensions" after all of your complaining here?
Im guessing not too many. You made your bed..... once again, now you get to ly in it. Good Luck.

I think I fixed some of the duplicates. and added a few others. :aok
Why didn't 99Capera "lay off" me? I suggested he do so multiple times.
Why didn't APP "lay off" me? I replied to his comments to me, contextually.
Why didn't APP tell Capera to "lay off?"
What did I say deserving of .rpt as opposed to them simply "laying off" or even .squelch?
You had capera, app and sire on my ankle and nothing I said to any of them was offensive or abusive. Look at their comments directed to me.
You have direct evidence of capera and sire coordinating .rpt abuse while he's slobbering all over my ankle with the language he uses. (I hit .rpt yet he's still out there slobbering.)
You have direct evidence of capera threatening HTC with some kind of... physical protest?? where???
I think you're struggling with context. It's all about the who, not what, for you and the who is *me* for whatever reason, lofl. I think you should "lay off" and stay in your lane. :aok

You're trying to claim knowledge of HTC's stance on the matter? Do you see me asking for any chat restoration?
All you are seeing is evidence of coordinated abuse of the .rpt function. All I'm seeing is you on my ankle.

All Im seeing is you on the boards week after week complaining about another mute, not Cap, APP, or Sire.

How do you guys play all day :eek:

Switch off 200 ?
But maybe lose 25% more subscribers :uhoh
Do people understand how foolish this all might look ? It is maybe addictive like some drug that leaves everyone worse off.
"What is the point of getting older if you don't get wiser"
I spent 3 years in group therapy finding out about my anger. I hope it is under control now. I sympathize with anyone who has a burning sense of injustice in them but "Trash Talk" should in my opinion be ironic and self mocking not a cause of nastiness.
Do people think a public flogging of whoever turns out to be king of the A Holes is going to make any of us better off ?
I remember in the early days I was very impressed. One of your "good old boys" listened to some angry young man abusing people right left and centre and just said. In a very calm and measured way "Well ok but around here we like to treat each other with respect" and I just thought wow !!!!! What a guy and what a great place to play :banana:
Just leave it alone ?

I guess you don't follow futbol like some hooligans? But, also, once again, ch200 is 100% opt-in. :ahand
There's even a naughty word list in place for all text channels that people think they creatively (snork! not really) bypass. :noid How are in-country vox comms working out in that regard? :police: :bolt: :banana:

I agree. ENOUGH.
In my experience "Shame" liked to project onto others things that he did. I remember him as a YKW mini me who would usually only engage when he had speed or alt advantage and then call them weaksauce if he won. He also had a book of excuses that he used if he lost. I think he was one of the most aggressive ankle biters in the game. He and his ilk were contributing factors of me moving on.
I'm glad I still read the boards from time to time as it lets me know that I made the right decision.
I've really been enjoying flying oddball planes like XP-50 and I'm considering buying the XP-55 during the next sale. I'm also currently researching the F-82 which looks like it will be a fun ride. I also haven't been warned, muted or ankle bitten since I left. LOL
I recently had a birthday that should qualify me for senior discounts now so all I need to do is to figure out where and how to get them.
I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

No wonder you left, you struggled understanding the basics of HO/ramming which you overly relied on - let me remind you:
https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,409359.msg5425153.html#msg5425153
And yet here you are, both on my ankle and licking the window from outside - quite an accomplishment. Hopefully you've found someone to help you understand the mechanics of whatever game it is you're shilling.
And iirc, you left mostly because you were butthurt after encountering the auto-filter 10 min mute or a challenging a mod who suggested you chill (for whatever it was - too lazy to search the forum for your whinge.
(edit: naw, I wasn't. It was easy. https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,408561.msg5410267.html#msg5410267

Ignoring it won't stop 99capera from continuing his slobbering attacks on others. I already ignore weebz like Sire unless I find them on my ankle.
As for avoidance, I think general consensus these days is that it's pretty much all anyone does - avoid taking risks that result in potential ego death.

No less amazing than your refusal to recognize .rpt is being abused.

Shane, do yourself a favor and stop posting threads like these. You're not getting much sympathy from the community and those that don't like you are getting their rocks off watching you flip your lid.
Save your screenshots and email them to HiTech. Let him decide if the .rpt is being abused.

He plans to die on this hill... of an online game chat ch. during off peak numbers with three people he doesn't know..
Sign one of.. you play too much
Also sign one of... reality isn't a thing anymore.
Pretty simple, shut up or someone else will do it for you

I knew you'd be here on my ankle. And you are an example the base vulgarity I push back against. Not the worst by far, but an example.

This always a mod/rpt complaint on top weekly is not doing our numbers any good. This is an HTC convo.

He’s only doing it here because he can’t do it there and you’re all wiling participants.
When he posts the next thread just ignore it!

Well I’ve been out of the game over five years and will never be back so I’m gonna let a cat out of the bag. The way I used to handle Shane was a warning, a 10 and then a mute for the rest of the night, seemed to work quite well. I feel for any current mods in the low number environment as they can’t really operate effectively.

BS. I've rarely encountered getting muted in the past or much interaction with mods. Stop lying. Recognize .rpt is being abused.

Potential new players deserve a heads up what it's like aside from all the whines about poor gameplay. They need to be aware of the mob mentality and constant accusations of cheating, often accompanied with base vulgarity and immature sexual commentary.
.rpt does nothing, mods don't either, but "gunbunny" gets a coordinated .rpt?

Not looking for sympathy at this point - more about pointing out the hypocrisy of the community's attempt at enabling mob rule.

I get your point. I think the main point the masses making is these post deter future players, or exhaust current players out. Point being, it might get exposure, but more so in a negative way, mainly because its one side of the story and the reasoning has no voice.
But my 1st question would be, have you had a convo with HT about it?
I will add, if you’re harping on new or return players you could be the next one accused of chasing players/numbers away, like YKW did.
The way some rant about how others play, from the outside looking in, it looks like a form of elitism. With the difference between a new/return player and high skilled vets can be intimidating, feeling of unwelcome. To all whiners, Don’t want and welcome new/return players in one hand and snivel them out of the game with the other hand.
We think if players leaving as numbers, HTC sees it as loss of numbers equals loss of money. If someone it taking money/food out of my mouth you can trust I’ll do something about it. HT lost a lot of money on YKW, rough lesson learned.
Question you should ponder. Not only do we need mire numbers for more fun,….do you want HT to be able to afford an update? These things you ask for cost money,..time=money, its called buisness.
If you’re sniveling but not offering to teach then you’re part of the problem, no matter who you are.
In life, there’s one judge, “you’re” not it, stay out of it.
In game, when someone pays my sub they can tell me how to play. I have fun flying into field guns after someone because surviving extreme gun fire and getting that kill is fun to me.
Just have fun, ya get a new plane after every death. The female ya got the hots for isn’t watching you lose. Its like friends sitting at a bar playing a game. Sometimes ya gotta take them keys away from them.

Your last line answers your first question. The time it would take to go thru the chat logs to discern what is what would require reading a lot to put everything into context. I don't think HTC has the resources, time or inclination to delve into what has supposedly been working all along.
The inmates finally figured out the warden was otherwise occupied.
YKW was a totally different scenario - he deliberately targeted and used multiple accounts, not so much for his smack talking per se, otherwise he'd have been muted more than me, amirite? <--- see the hypocrisy coming out? Did he drive a few players off? Possibly, but how many have come back since?
No one is forced to tune to ch200 or respond to another, and supposedly we're all responsible for what we say, not what others say. Sure, onboard with that, but it seems it's who, not what per se. <---- the hypocrisy, lofl, is why I'm here.
Now you have people thinking they have power over HTC (look at 99capera's "threat of protest" in the first post here.)
Oldman was on the right track about what needs to be done about getting the .rpt function back to what it's intended for, offense, not annoyance. It's a simple matter to change some relevant settings. Yes, simple, but perhaps time consuming.
People might think HTC is okay with what is happening because of the silence, but that silence doesn't imply consent as much as it does "not worth the time."
Do I go after the relatively few newbies we have? No! I merely remark on weebsauce and then deal with the 17 anklehumpers because I stepped on their fragile weegos at some point in their weebsauce ah career.
Yet... bypassing the language filter is... ok. .rpt sure doesn't seem work then - so is it who or what?
I've always pushed back against 2 things - hypocrisy and lying. It might just be a "game," but I still have principles.

I’m quite content with everything around me thanks for asking. Don’t expect more replies.

I think my bottom sig line suits you.
And this is where I'll show you to be wrong. It took this long for anyone to even step up on my side because they are finally seeing how podunk it is... Oldman and Violator. I would think you know and respect them. Even Animl is finally acknowledging it. Only other one was Stepsis, who hasn't been around. Devil505 is making the (un)usual suggestion of sending in screenies as opposed to calling.
See, people like you, who don't step up and only latch on my ankle, are enabling these the people to think they've been empowered to gatekeep channel 200. This doesn't require HTC attention as much as it would involving the community - like below.
You all think you're being sage and wise telling *me* to chill out, :rofl but you see, not once do I ever see you tell those 17 other anklehumpers to chill out. Or call them on this podunkiness. :rolleyes:
Hypocrisy... :aok
And once again... Annoyance vs Offensive .squelch vs .rpt
If you possessed critical thinking skills, I'd walk you right into agreeing with what you know is right. Maybe ask Oldman for some insight?

Well since it’s Friday night and we have successfully survived another week in a nuclear inferno-free stylee my musings on this subject…
Just as Holmes said an ideal reasoner could infer the Niagara Falls from a drop of water in the same way we can infer the troubles of our global society from this AH interchange:-
Shane is continually pointing out an abuse of the report system which is incorrect when deliberately contrived presumably because he is defending his right to point out weak gameplay which he perceives as damaging to the game. And he's right.
99Capera is defending what he perceives as personal attacks exasperated by his PTSD which he thinks should place certain limits on comments mostly from factions of the Knight's 'morning crew' if I have observed correctly (whose callsigns may or may not be prefixed with Mr.) in the past who sometimes take their comments far too vindictively far. And he's right.
Certain members of said aforementioned Knight's 'morning crew' (mostly with callsigns prefixed with Mr) believe in equality and don't accept PTSD as requiring special consideration and especially limitations on saying whatever they wish to say in the spirit of 'freedom of speech', the latter part of which is right.
HiTech, tired from decades of dealing with pointless arguing hosted on a subscription-based game, wishes people could all learn to get along, or otherwise fight it out without bothering him beyond the occasional instruction to one of his voluntary moderators whose job it is - after all - to hand out timeouts when some arbitrary line is crossed. And he's right.
The standard 200-dwelling AH player, in the meantime, is exercising their subscription-given right to make derogatory comments on the sexual-degradation - straight up swearing insult spectrum because they’ve been shot down by another player which they certainly didn’t pay $15 a month for in the first place as this certainly didn’t happen in the real World War. And they’re right, real WW2 pilots did not pay $15 a month.
Putin thinks there is no such thing as Ukrainians, they’re just disloyal Russian subjects, subject to him mostly and he’s all over 200 complaining that his army was not welcomed and threatening to set off his box of fake nuclear fireworks because no one respects his authority and his war budget has now nearly run out and it’s all gone Pete Tong, and he’s right.
The leap to the next level of human evolution is obvious: Just because people are convinced they are doing the right thing does not compel them to actually do it. Stopping asserting your position is not the same thing at all as conceding your position. Forcing people to accept your point invites that other’s points are similarly imposed on you with equal authority - you can just agree to disagree. And finally nothing is happening in a self-centred vacuum, everything we do affects others in accord with our societal-evolution which was formerly community-based: talking as well as listening, instead of just shouting be that via channel 200, Facebook or via artillery. And on that day the endless warring and injustices stopped and humanity moved forward, roughly and jerkily at first, but forward nonetheless.
Happy Friday.

Wow, that was some deep meanderings Nrshida. :devil :salute

I got muted for 10 min, a cpl times. Ya know who knew it? No one.
I found the limits and now know where the line is.
Sometimes it’s not as much what is said, but how many times and how long it goes on.
A small insult repeated to a point it consumes ch. 200 I would find it worthy of 10 min of breath in breath out.
That said, some players and former abuse the report buttons on 200 and bbs.
Both can be true.
Black + white = gray
Compromising is likely to produce some results vs no results.

HiTech, tired from decades of dealing with pointless arguing hosted on a subscription-based game, wishes people could all learn to get along, or otherwise fight it out without bothering him beyond the occasional instruction to one of his voluntary moderators whose job it is - after all - to hand out timeouts when some arbitrary line is crossed. And he's right.
The standard 200-dwelling AH player, in the meantime, is exercising their subscription-given right to make derogatory comments on the sexual-degradation - straight up swearing insult spectrum because they’ve been shot down by another player which they certainly didn’t pay $15 a month for in the first place as this certainly didn’t happen in the real World War. And they’re right, real WW2 pilots did not pay $15 a month.
Putin thinks there is no such thing as Ukrainians, they’re just disloyal Russian subjects, subject to him mostly and he’s all over 200 complaining that his army was not welcomed and threatening to set off his box of fake nuclear fireworks because no one respects his authority and his war budget has now nearly run out and it’s all gone Pete Tong, and he’s right.
The leap to the next level of human evolution is obvious: Just because people are convinced they are doing the right thing does not compel them to actually do it. Stopping asserting your position is not the same thing at all as conceding your position. Forcing people to accept your point invites that other’s points are similarly imposed on you with equal authority - you can just agree to disagree. And finally nothing is happening in a self-centred vacuum, everything we do affects others in accord with our societal-evolution which was formerly community-based: talking as well as listening, instead of just shouting be that via channel 200, Facebook or via artillery. And on that day the endless warring and injustices stopped and humanity moved forward, roughly and jerkily at first, but forward nonetheless.
Happy Friday.
Lovely bit of writing Shida. Kept me grinning.

Boring old reminder: "All religion and moral compass comes back to treat other people how you would like to be treated"
"Only the dead have seen the end of war"
Yes it all plays out in microcosm. I am not sure I know anything about this except I used to feel a burning sense of injustice and now I don't. When I did I could see persecuting ignorami everywhere spoiling human decency with their gangs and tribes based on intolerance and persecution of the "not us". Now I just see tormented souls hanging together and those with peace of mind who don;t feel any of this.
I have been part of the Knight Morning Crew. Its fun but respectful of opposition.
Chaps having fun working together :aok Ok can roll a few bases but isnt that the game ?
Its allot of fun working as a team but if someone is on 200 complaining about it I would just ignore them. Don't report them for having a hissy fit. It just shows you are making a difference so its a victory not an insult isnt it?
I am not a fan of group cencure of individuals it hints at lack of character :frown: Playing as a group in a game is fun, picking on individuals as a group is hmmmm :frown: :frown: I personally don't want an part of anything like that.

This thread is gay AF. If I was a mod I'd shut it down without impunity.

Wow, that was some deep meanderings Nrshida. :devil :salute
...Kept me grinning.
Thanks fellas. It's my job (wonder why this joystick project never seems to get finished...).
tormented souls hanging together
Great squad name.

Some cultures have a concept of not piling plop on someone's already ploppy plate. They've got enough struggles in life, it's not an opportunity to put some of yours on their plate as well while they're busy. Own your own 5h!t in other words. Sorry about the French there.
But yeah, leave no one behind...
This thread is gay AF.
... evem him :rofl

Squelch command works pretty well for me.

Squelch works well except in cases where it should be permanent. We need both flavors as some may just be drunk one night and others are just constantly off their rocker.

No wonder you left, you struggled understanding the basics of HO/ramming which you overly relied on - let me remind you:
https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,409359.msg5425153.html#msg5425153
And yet here you are, both on my ankle and licking the window from outside - quite an accomplishment. Hopefully you've found someone to help you understand the mechanics of whatever game it is you're shilling.
And iirc, you left mostly because you were butthurt after encountering the auto-filter 10 min mute or a challenging a mod who suggested you chill (for whatever it was - too lazy to search the forum for your whinge.
(edit: naw, I wasn't. It was easy. https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,408561.msg5410267.html#msg5410267
Lol. Couple things.
You seem to have the opinion that I care what you think. I assure you I didn't.
You and YKW are the same in that I suspect you save every film and or interaction that you've ever had just in cause you can use them in the future to belittle somebody in the future.
Maybe a little self reflection might be useful for you to understand why the things that are happening to you are happening and why nothing is being done about it.
I'm not shilling anything. I'm merely stating what we all already know. There are many alternatives to this game and many are being run off by people like you and and enjoying the alternatives.
Lastly, getting a warning for typing the word pissed, while others are constantly letting go of profanity laced tirades on the range channel to the point of my kids saying "bad word" like 5 times in 10 seconds doesn't seem like a fair practice to me. I for one figured out nothing is going to change, so I I moved on. Like many others who have left, I check in from time to time to see what's going on and hope for positive developments but I'm not holding my breath.

Still butthurt about getting the attention of a mod and a <snork!> 10 minute timeout :ahand ? (It might've even been the auto-mute from the filter list, who knows, really, but... butthurt. :noid :rofl )

Things said on range are only heard by those in range.200 is read by all if enabled. Voice squelch also exist.
Those targeted are not innocent lambs.

Well since it’s Friday night and we have successfully survived another week in a nuclear inferno-free stylee my musings on this subject…
Just as Holmes said an ideal reasoner could infer the Niagara Falls from a drop of water in the same way we can infer the troubles of our global society from this AH interchange:-
Shane is continually pointing out an abuse of the report system which is incorrect when deliberately contrived presumably because he is defending his right to point out weak gameplay which he perceives as damaging to the game. And he's right.
99Capera is defending what he perceives as personal attacks exasperated by his PTSD which he thinks should place certain limits on comments mostly from factions of the Knight's 'morning crew' if I have observed correctly (whose callsigns may or may not be prefixed with Mr.) in the past who sometimes take their comments far too vindictively far. And he's right.
Certain members of said aforementioned Knight's 'morning crew' (mostly with callsigns prefixed with Mr) believe in equality and don't accept PTSD as requiring special consideration and especially limitations on saying whatever they wish to say in the spirit of 'freedom of speech', the latter part of which is right.
HiTech, tired from decades of dealing with pointless arguing hosted on a subscription-based game, wishes people could all learn to get along, or otherwise fight it out without bothering him beyond the occasional instruction to one of his voluntary moderators whose job it is - after all - to hand out timeouts when some arbitrary line is crossed. And he's right.
The standard 200-dwelling AH player, in the meantime, is exercising their subscription-given right to make derogatory comments on the sexual-degradation - straight up swearing insult spectrum because they’ve been shot down by another player which they certainly didn’t pay $15 a month for in the first place as this certainly didn’t happen in the real World War. And they’re right, real WW2 pilots did not pay $15 a month.
Putin thinks there is no such thing as Ukrainians, they’re just disloyal Russian subjects, subject to him mostly and he’s all over 200 complaining that his army was not welcomed and threatening to set off his box of fake nuclear fireworks because no one respects his authority and his war budget has now nearly run out and it’s all gone Pete Tong, and he’s right.
The leap to the next level of human evolution is obvious: Just because people are convinced they are doing the right thing does not compel them to actually do it. Stopping asserting your position is not the same thing at all as conceding your position. Forcing people to accept your point invites that other’s points are similarly imposed on you with equal authority - you can just agree to disagree. And finally nothing is happening in a self-centred vacuum, everything we do affects others in accord with our societal-evolution which was formerly community-based: talking as well as listening, instead of just shouting be that via channel 200, Facebook or via artillery. And on that day the endless warring and injustices stopped and humanity moved forward, roughly and jerkily at first, but forward nonetheless.

Reminds me of the song “For What Its Worth” by Buffalo Springfield.
