yes he should be, and he has already been temp banned for it in the past

what some people dont seem to recognize with him is that he is deliberately offensive to oleg personally and on purpose constantly posts negative and destructive remarks about the BoB project and previews we get here, it has nothing to do with him giving some honest and balanced feedback on the updates

his behavior is like that of the slighted women, or the low EQ child who's toy has been taken away, and he keeps whining on and on and on long after the event has passed. for tree-uk that trigger experience was the postponement of il2/BoB mark-1 about 4 yrs ago which he must have been looking forward to a lot, and from then on his sole purpose to come onto these forums is to post his negative crap (and he does it on all the il2 forums). if you look back on all his post in this forum 90% of them are his deliberately offensive negative remarks

and anytime he gets cornered about his misrepresentation of facts or his deliberate exaggerated negative spin on things, he'll try and backtrack about being misunderstood and will slither and slide away, only to reappear doing the exact same thing in the next posts, he's been doing it for years, and temp banning him here has had no change in his behavior either. his previous main constant whining was about the release date, and since it is obvious in the last couple of months that release is imminent and just around the corner (barring some major bug that delays intended release date), so Tree-uk now has switched to deliberately offensive remarks about the content (yet he knows little of game design or grafix/video, and completely ignores all the positive aspects of what we see, and neither is he able or willing to see minor WIP factors for what they are)

tree-uk is also now locked into his behavior because it gets him attention (and he has very little knowledgeable or interesting to contribute on ww2 aviation so he cant "participate" on that level), and because he gets stroked along by cluster of hanger's on who are to dimwitted to see the bigger pattern of what he is doing here

so when you see oleg's outburst of frustration at all the unnecessary and ungrateful negative crap being constantly posted by people like tree, most of us are concerned, but not tree, for him its EXACTLY what he wants to achieve and he will keep doing it, its his sole purpose for being here. so dont expect tree to change, he wont, and because of that he really shouldnt be here at all

Dude, you seriously need to come out of your shell and tell us what you really think . Holding back your true feelings will lead to indigestion and ulcers. So let me ask this in as direct a manner as possible:

Tell us how you feel about TreeUk.

Get it off your chest, you will fell better.

Now where did I put my popcorn.....

Now then splitter, we've had some good chats and you're obviously an intelligent chap, so don't jump on the bandwagon, please.

What do you think about the weathering of squadron codes?

Thanks.

I think the way they are displayed on the British aircraft is excellent, but the ones on the Italian aircraft are too transparent (as Oleg alluded to in his initial post here).

Otherwise, they are a major step up from the stock IL2 markings, which don't blend in at all with the airframe.

I'm not jumping on anyone, Dutch, I promise. I even joked with Tree about his what he calls his direct honesty. That post just gave me a chuckle because of the spleen venting lol. So don't take insult.

As for the weathering, it would be a neat thing but here again, it's not anywhere near a priority in my mind. However, I will say it will look a bit awkward if the planes weather but the lettering does not. A big deal even at that point? Not to me, just one of those things that would/should be fixed in a future patch.

Peace, brothers .

You're wrong.
He's speculative on the release date - he's free to do so.
He doesn't like the terrain. He's free to like whatever, unfortunately he picked a bad formulation.

The whiners here are actually not negative or destructive - they are just disappointed.
Not of Olegs work - but they had unrealistic dreams(i'm exaggerating here) of a Sim, where you can fly over meadows and see the grasshoppers jump away if you only do it low enough.
Now their dream is manifesting and they realize it's not going be like they imagined, hence the don't like this, don't like that.

I don't know what the past history is with you two but please stop it.

It's stupid.

Move on.

The pair of you appear like a pair of bitchy schoolgirls and it's extremely tedious for the rest of us, although you both have valid points to make.

That said, I am interested in both your opinions on the appearance of weathered squadron markings within the sim.

Any Thoughts? Or are you too busy scoring points?
