The reasons for me to support night were because I knew that other players wanted it.


Yes, in spite of the fact that the majority of people DIDN'T want it.

I was considering the interests of others too.  Lots of people wanted to see night eliminated.

So how is the concept alien to me?  I argued that night was a fun killer for many people.  You toss out such lame insults simply because my opinion is different than yours.

And as I have said all along, it makes no difference to me personally whether night stays or goes.


Really?  where have you been saying this all along.  Typical, you spout lies then when confronted about them simply ignore the challenge.  I challenge you again:  where have you been saying this all along?

Yeah, um guys... I have been reading all the help files and the Terms of Service.... Can anyone point me to where it says AH is a democracy?

Here's an idea:

Quit your job.

Learn to program.

Start a gaming company.

Build your own flight sim.

Make it all-night, all the time if you want.

Fly around in the dark all you want!

Always liked the night myself.  Seemed to have better success at night than I did during the day.  Maybe it's just me, but it appeared to level the playing field a bit for me against the hot sticks who have been flying the virtual skies a lot longer than I have.

Besides, I used to do some of my best operating at night! :D

Bring night back...at least for an hour a day.

Regards, Shuckins/Leggern

As games go, I believe in "proportional representation". For example, if 20% of people approve of the pizza map, it should be up at least 20% of the time. Your philosophy is different. You feel that if 51% of folks are totally opposed to night, that the other 49% should simply go forth and urinate. I don't agree with that.

No, the other 49%, to use your numbers, can turn their monitors way down when they want to sim night.  That's what the proponents of night used to tell us(except turn them up).

I wonder how many people would frequent an arena if it were all night.

is this a discussion about bringing Night Time back or a personal attack on Beet1e?

You  guys are sooooo insecure, you even have to gang up on 1 guy on the BBS!

Beet1e took up the mantle of Defender of Night.  Opponents of night addressed him as a result.

Hehe - see, I'm not afraid of a fight. :):D Anyway, my involvement in the night debate has been by proxy. I have no interest in night personally, but I do feel that as there are a good number of people who want night, their interests should be represented.

I see the Master BullSlinger is back, slinging as usual.

Did anyone notice that AH2 features a gamma adjustment slider?

Why do you think that might be in there?

As HT said, it's time for the other side of the fence to whine. Share and share alike.
