Most of these were blatant self-promotion or downright belittling comments about the abilities of Maddox Games. This did not sit well with me and I spoke up against such behavior. The result was a number of insults against my person which did not help to soothe the waves. This - and especially this - is the prime reason why I will never register at AAA even if some comments really made my vitriol levels spike and tempted me to give these people an answer they deserved. Had it not been for that arrogance and rude attitude this process would have been a lot less "explosive".

Exactly. Which is why one reason why i'm not holding my tounge on this. That's gotten me into some troubles in the past...but unlike Thor...i don't ALWAYS choose my words carfully and write with such eloquence. even though i have the ability to do so. forwhatever reason what come out is what comes out and....well there you have it.

another yet rare occation where Thor and i are in agreement. The back handed talk about Oleg and 1c kinda ticked me off as well.
I'm not saying...i'm just saying....Those people (AAA) are putting a strangle hold on the sim that will last long after SoW has released. For me personally, when everyone else has forgoten about IL-2...i had planed to still be playing it. The idea of yet amother Battle of Britain sim has never really excited me personaly. While i'm sure i'll be standing at game stop, cash in hand on realease day...i was counting on il-2 to still be useull for me untill we get SoW to the Pacific or Korea. Sadly that's gone.
