sorry for my outburst but when i always read about online vs offline i couldn“t hold it anymore.
No apologiky required. You merely have read incorrectly, as we see on this page, I am the greatest fan of Online play community. What you are reading into my poast is the classical Online gamer vs Online community conflict. True Online communities have the same goal as Offline players. The two are One.

when will it reach your brain that there are only buyers of a game and no offline - online separation!!!!
See the first line of my SiG for the most famous example of Oleg crippling his own flight models for everybody in an attempt to prevent "cheating" on anonymous public servers which caused the old forum Trim Wars years ago.

When the sim is crippled in attempts to prevent online cheating in anonymous public servers at the expense of the Offline players and true online communities, then the game needs to be seperated into two versions:

(1) One sim version for Offline and for Online players who know how to build communities that are not hurt by cheats or exploits.

(2) Reduced-featured or "dumbed down" game version for anonymous public servers that requires a crippled simulation to prevent cheats or exploits among unkown and untrusted gaming members.
