locked treads on IL-2 Sturmovik Forum

That's a good point, Wolf_rider.

Surely a little more decorum wouldn't be too much to ask for once?

There you go. Fixed it. lol

Their forum their rules. Looks like they want to distance themselves from both CoD AND RoF, so the RoF fans might not want to get too cozy, as that sim could very well be the next one for the chop.
Can't see how they can keep both going, and WW2 is where the money tree is.

I just wish these boards were as ruthlessly moderated. Then again, I'd probably be banned myself, since I can't sit here in my glass-house and say that I haven't fired off more than one broadside

Well, moderators have to go by a set of guidelines from the higher ups. Nobody told me to suddenly become a ******* I decided that all by myself, and will continue until others decide I can't

Other than that, I am quite happy with the thought that the worst trolls, griefers and all round ***** are now banned from here, simhq, in fact probably every flight sim forum on the planet, and are too scared to open their mouths on the new forum, and will just have to play along like good little soldiers.Funny how some of the worst trouble making idiots here are now fine upstanding members of the community at the new place.
They will have to go to facebook or mumsnet for an argument now.

If it stops the new forum becoming like this one, the ends justify the means.

Amen.

Having been both a moderator on boards and an Op on good old IRC, I can appreciate the mods job a little better, and in some cases truly admire their ability to keep their cool. Because I sure as hell wouldn't

The COD is a done deal. No more patches or embellishments will be coming from 1C.

It is rumored 777 will use their own engine and build a WW2 air combat simulator game. I think we should look at the merge between COD and 777 as 777 buying the longstanding and prosperous IL2 Sturmovik brand and nothing more.

Then when you go to that forums you understand the vents and complaints are not their problem. THey bought "the IL2 Sturmovik brand" and the COD is just an ancillary thing that came with the purchase of the brand.

If 777 were buying COD for the work that has been done the patches would continue and the COD would be improved.

We are looking at 2014 for a release. I would say... a new sim with ties to an old brand.

So... don't go there looking for resolution of your complaints with COD they aren't improving or working with the COD code is my understanding. They may or may not use some graphic elements of COD.

Yea, I think you and I know pretty well that they can`t hold it for long. The haters who been kicked out of here with perminit bans are trying to give their nicknames a new face. Too bad few of them already posted enough through the first weekend of the new forum to get banned for 30days (according the the forum rules).

That is because their only goal was to destroy COD by badmouthing on these boards despite not even owning a copy of the sim. They are ROF fanboys through and through, God only knows what they think they would achieve by doing what they've done.
