I always thought of tree as the advocate for the common man who paid $80 for this game and showed faith despite the disapoinments. His honest, direct and forthright style of communication seemed to be the only way to outline the true problems to the dev's and communicate the ill-will that the botched release of this sim created.

Believe me.. I want to enjoy this sim like I did il-2 '46. It's just hard when less than 300 ppl in the entire world play it online with any regularity.

I hope Tree is unbanned and that freedom of speech (no matter how hard the truth is to swallow) is allowed to continue on the 1C forums.

Thanks sincerely for your time.
