WRONG... YOU want to take this to the "OFF Topic and "LESS SERIOUS" discussion board????

IM sorry BUT I WILL forever DISAGREE with that.

THIS ISSUE is so horrid and such a DRASTIC show of HOW evil man can be, I FEEL that this topic NEEDS to be KNOWN and talked about as MUCH as possible.

LETS NOT HIDE, or push away this TOPIC.

  :mad:   :(

highflyer, this is the ACES HIGH GENERAL DISCUSSION FORUM FOR THE GAME.

O'Club is for things, just like what America is going through.

It's approaching day 2 of this crisis, it's time to move it and not clutter up the GAME's message board.

I love this game as much as anyone but some things are more important than a game, or your convenient access to useless discussions about games. So unless you buy HTC or the present owners protest I would suggest you keep your demands regarding board content posted by other players to yourself, but hey, thats just my opinion.  
Also, I fail to understand how posting important political discussions on a board dedicated to something as mundane as a game is keeping America from getting on with things. Or are some of us simply invoking some sort of national imperative to present themselves as self appointed message board moderators so as to place limits on the rest of us.  Hmmm....yeah, thats my guess.

Aces High General Discussion:
Open forum for the general discussion of Aces High.

The O' Club:
Open forum for off-topic and less serious discussions.

Looks clear to me.

I see that Crash has the right IDEA <S>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


For the others WHO are more focused on the location of where someone posts about the WORLD WIDE AFFECTED ATROSCITIES that have occured within just a mere 24 hr time frame that will forever change the way american and most likley other nations lives. I seriously find a character fault  :(

I agree too. Please take it to the O club. It's one thing to discuss these matters, its another to have to read post from everyone racing to be the 1st to post what they just heard on the news. I think we are all watching and listen as it is.

Then why come here to this GAME discussion board to talk current events and politics?  If the discussions are so useless, why post here?  

HTC have already made a ruling on this board's content.  That is why this is the GENERAL DISCUSSION ABOUT ACES HIGH board.  They have also thoughtfully provided the OFF TOPIC board so you can discuss current events and politics with your fellow gamers.

There is no need to attack the posts made above as being an indication of misguided priorities or a lack of sensitivity.  They are just trying to help things back to the format set by HTC.

P.S. This is not meant to be a flame.  Just please move off Aces High topics to the correct forum.  They will not receive any less attention being there rather than here but it will prevent disruption to people who want to try to get back to normality...

Agreed.

I apologize for making as many disaster related posts in this forum as I did.

Henceforth, I'll work harder to keep my posts in the correct forum.

Yeah, it's bad. But we DO have the right place to talk about it. It's just a click away.

Toad, it isn't that people are agitated by the posts you and others made up to the point that the first post of this thread was made- it's that it's time to get a little more organized and resume with 'normal' operations. Everywhere except what deals with the ordeal all of us Americans, and other nations, went through yesterday.

No apologies necessary, and the threads currently in the Gen. Discussion area will obvsiouly continue. I believe Skurj, and others, wanted no more new discussions begun.

TY Skurj.

After all the hours of TV, work grief, and the whole terrible situation, someone makes a rational post.

Gimme back my free time AH BBS.

Also, some of us come here for stress relieve and to take our minds off of other things.  If I want to hear about the tragedy, I can (and do) turn my TV on to any national broadcast.

Taking it to the O Club is not "hiding it", it's just showing your ability to follow a simple rule and demonstrate common courtesey to the rest of the people on the board.  Personally, I think it'd be great if HTC would move the threads over to off-topic, but can understand if they'd be hesitant to do so.

It is time to return the board to its normal function.  Just as the airlines will resume flights today, so must we continue on with our daily business and lives.  To that end and with the knowledge that this will be on our minds for a long time, please hold these discussions in the O'club.

I agree ... But disagree with the LESS serious portion of this.

I dont want to sound as if I am bickering about little MESSAGE board insignifigances, but I as an AMerican and as a person living in todays society that sees how MANY either FLUFF this EVENT off (and IM not talking about here on this board) but in my daily living at work and some on the streets, I am SO disturbed just the thought of this subject being noted as "Less serious"

I DO AGREE with it being "OFF TOPIC" in relation to Aces High as a WHole.

I will only hope that most of you will undestand what I am saying here with this.

Thanks -.......

Nobody says O'Club is more serious.

 In fact I want all the WTC-related posts in the O'Club because these days I am not much interested in anything AH-related on this board and O'Club is my primary browsing destination.
