I can't understand why all update threads aren't locked. Every single time an update thread appears, whether it contains a Beta or Patch, there is a standard reply to it. For the first 3 or so pages we get to read 'Thank You Devs', then after that there is another 20 pages of members arguing with each other. I don't see the point.
Why can't someone open a 'Thank You' Devs thread outside the Update thread.
If this simple thing was done then we wouldn't be in this position.
Luither/Blacksix - Please, please, please lock your update thread, even if there is no Beta or Patch contained in them.

Seems pretty simple to me.

I think I remember in the nice old days with Oleg updates, they had a locked thread for the updates and patches and another one for comments. That was a nice way to do it.

I think I got banned before the infractions all came into place.

I am really sorry, but if I see guys downloading without looking, than it is their fault. As I read the post yesterday, I directly saw, that is 1 year old.

I cannot understand such guys now whining, that there was serious damage as result. Again sorry, but do you never open your eyes before downloading and installing? Ooooooomg

And the best: Most of the pilots here do not any guy of the community and do not know, what foo bar already made for us all. That is the next fault by some gamers here. I just see very much guys, who are not aware to the game, the history and the community.

Otherwise, nobody would ever say yes for a ban of foobar!!!! He simply do not deserve it and he became a not unimportant part of the product "IL2".

So you should reject this ban.

Be careful what you all post. You all know that these posts are classed as off topic. Infractions can be handed out and the way points accumulate you could get a 6 month ban if you post enough.

OSorry, but nearly every post of nearly any guy here is somehow off topic.

Discussion threads are there. But the last weeks, nearly 20 threads are opened just to express personal thinkings. Very few threads have something to do with the game. They just want to say thank you and open the next thread, which is totally senseless from the beginning or even gets unreadable and senseless after some posts.

Sorry, but it is getting a chatroom. Sorry to say that, but this is getting more and more.

This is my last post in this manner (be sure). But some guys, who are really discussing, bug tracking and statinfg or helping at problems cannot be heard here anymore.

Hopefully my next post will be a post with content, not with such nonsense, as I am currently writing. It is simply not important, that I open a thread with my name on it to say things with no constructive topics or fill it with answers, which were already asked.

Other forums will simply close such threads and will remind about the "search button".

Now I am finished!!!!! Hopefully forever..

It might have been a good joke, at some other time. But yesterday was not that time.

Actually that's not quite true. At least in the American justice system intent can be the difference between a few years in prison or death row.

Although if it was intended as a joke, well...that's poor taste at the very least.

Still, when you have people here who are allowed to make personal attacks, snide remarks and who otherwise behave in an unconscionable and bullying manner, this guy being banned seems ridiculous at best.

People have to be responsible for their actions, he didn't do anything wrong, it's the act first-think later crowd which got what they deserved.
