So why weren’t you interested in banning everyone that broke the rules over at UBI when you where a mod even when challenged to do so by me?
The old buddy system kicked in I suppose! It’s a big difference between moderating and favouring.

Don’t come over here with your bad ideas! Let Evgeny do the moderating in here, you never could, over there.

Can I safely assume that this Forum has been introduced by 1C to offer them a little more freedom of communication moving forward...direct contact with their users rather than via distributors/publishers websites?
Therefore from a marketing perspective for 1C...more users and a higher level of activity will be their goal? And from a communication point of view they will want to solicit opinion and comment both from the minority of online Users and the majority of Offline users?
Therefore is it right to assume that we can expect the current forum moderation policy viv-a-vis the Sound Mod to proceed, and that no new, controversial moderators will be appointed in the short term?

@jasonbirder

i am wonderin how you still can believe that the offline - community is a majority??

I, for my part have played offline for about a year but then it became really boring
to fight the dumb, cheating ai and i shelfed IL2.

I came back to IL2 when i had the opportunity to play online against intelligent opponents.

I can´t believe that so many people are enjoing to fight the AI after a year or so.

The resume fur me is that the majority of players are now online - players and not
the people with a shelfed or garbaged IL2 - Game.

Well I believe it because all game industry statistics show that Offline players make up c90-95% of purchasers, because sometime ago Oleg himself indicated about 95% of his user base was offline players and because only a few months ago a poll on UBI.COM (surely the most online centric of the major IL2 forums) had a substantial majority as either 100% Offline or 90% Offline players.

http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/t...wpollresults/Y

100 or 90% Offline = 47%

100 or 90% Online = 36%

Given that by definition an internet forum excludes everyone without an internet connection and that Ubi.com has traditionally been more “online-focused” than somewhere like Simhq.com, its safe to assume the real life figures are in actuality far more biased towards Offliners than this poll suggest…

The simple truth is that offline you don't have to cope with player egos, self-centered fools who resort to any means to get what they want - even at the expense of everyone else. Not to mention the AI will fly any type of aircraft regardless of its performance without whining on some board how biased you are and how unfair mission xyz was. Now does that ring a bell?

Gee, Jasonbirder,

when i look at the poll i see something completely different than you.
i see about 38% of players who spend equal or less than 50% of their gaming time online
and 63% (róunding error) who are playin more than 50% of their gaming time online.
But 100 % of them are playing online.

And, very important: To buy doesnt mean continuing to play after finding it was too hard
(at the beginning) or too boring (offline)

Now you....

@ csThor

I really don´t care what anybody is thinking when he is on my six or i am on his.
i dont have to read the whining and i could not care less about it
and last but not least i fly most of my time the fighter-fodder (bomber) or fighter-bomber types who are mostly not equal to the pure fighters.
So i would be an opponent for you, i think.(at least more challenging than the ai)

Now you....
The Poll I am quoting from has nothing to do with people that bought the game and no longer play it (Though I suspect that Oleg himself is glad they exist...selling your computer game to a few thousand commited long term fans is not going to keep his company in business very long)
It is a contemporary poll from the ubizoo...which of all the internet forums is probably the one which is most "online centric"
SO look at the evidence...
Even on an Internet Forum (so automatically excluding anyone that plays IL2 without an internet connection), in the English Language speaking section (traditionally the English speaking countries have the highest % of internet and broadband connections - introducing more bias into the poll results), on a forum which has historically been the most "online-centric" of all the IL2 forums (so likely to be seen and responded to by online players)...so for all of that the majority of responders are predominantly offline players...
