More severe moderation in update threads?

The update thread is still On topic and discussions are sensible

So... I favor keeping this thread sticky and alive

Well the update is mainly of interest to mission builders and so forth with pictures of the game interface.

It is possible just one photo of a Spitfire near some trees with a cow in the background would have spawned 20 pages of nonsense about how "real cows" looked in the summer of 1940

Lets see what happens this week

I see we're back to the ol' off-topic postings in the 3 December update thread.

At least it's come after the recent update, but I do agree there hasn't been any real arguments or flame wars, so is it safe to say there's improvement?

Yes, but it's still annoying to see people drop right back into their old habits, like nothing ever changed.

My "report post" button was busy last night.

Nothing has changed in update threads.
Still silly and meaningless posts that make me bored to death.
And these boring posts are worse than flame posts, at least to me.

Why can't people post only when they have something specific, that adds to the update thread, to say?
Do they think that we care if they "like it, it is fantastic!", or they "hate it, it is absolutely awful"?
We just don't care and don't want these spam posts in update threads...

I know...
I've thought the recent updates have been awesome, but (fortunately) by posting of late has been limited, because I have nothing to add to the updates, other than 'great!'.
I mean with the most recent update, my only knit-pick is why there may be long grass on an airfield and seemingly on a runway, but this would detract from the updates focus, wouldn't it? If anyone has an answer, I wouldn't mind a PM
Have a nice weekend, all

The biggest change I've noticed is that I haven't joined in with the OT chat

Hopefully those Luke has reported will get banned - incidentally, I'd prefer it to be 10 days, so they can't then spoil the next weeks thread.

oh lets just make it a lifetime ban...otherwise half of them will ruin every other update, and the other half will ruin the rest of them.

such is the world of ruin we live in *sob*
