Where'd everyone go?
« on: June 07, 2019, 05:38:30 PM »
I go away for 10 years and suddenly MA numbers are down to 2 figures?

Still weighing up whether to punt on a paid account, as my trial ran out today.

Convince me?

Convince me to convince you.
Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

OK.

If you don't sign back up.  I'll kill this other kitten.

Seriously though.  No one is asking for your hand in marriage.

Pay for a month.  If it feels worth it to you after that, pay for another.

Do we get more than 300 pilots online at any point? It's an arbitrary figure, plucked from memory.

No, you're right of course.

It's gotta be worth a shot... see you up there.

I notice I am not the oldest person in the game, which is unusual. Maybe this game needs a younger new generation of recruits. Social media and AH3 film viewer/fraps is the answer perhap?

My boss is an ex-games journalist, likes IL2 and Warthunder. He'd never heard of Aces High. It just needs circulation to a new generation of players and numbers will fly back up. Content releases help, then you have something new to shout about.

Heh.  The National Lampoon.

The following month, as I recall, they had a note on the contents page:  "You didn't buy enough copies, so we shot the puppy.  You're as guilty as if you had pulled the trigger."
