So true. Exactly what I'm thinking.

Many of the "questions" were just thinly disguised insults. That might be a factor in the slow response.

That is a good point too... people trying to get shots in, he has been away from the forums for awhile, while I find it hard to believe he hasnt peeked in here its possible he hadnt seen how jaded the forum has become... he might be in the fetal position on the floor of his apartment cuddling a pillow pet right now...

The questions are easy to see, ditto with the insults.

It's just appears to show the usual contempt the paying customer is held in today.

From what I have seen on this forum the contempt is well deserved.

Yes, you do. Who do you think is going to produce a good WW2 flight sim if you force this team out of business?

You couldn't mean me? I bought (into) it on April 16, 2011, 3 months before
the U.S. release and two days after I joined this forum.

Pretty tough to force anybody to do anything on the interweb.
Proof of that? The last 18 months here. Waiting.

Absolutely. You may want to consider in which direction, and who the recipient is.

As are many, if not all, of the reactive 'commentariat' remarks.

This forum has many different levels of insult, from the carefully deployed and implied, to the overt. The high-ground is great, but the game itself occupies the low ground. Lording it over such a disaster is never going to work. It would onyl work if the game invited high praise and a uniform respect - it doesn't, sadly.
