Wow, somebody has really missed the idea of a placeholder page!

 

 

 


the reason I got mad is because people shoot down someone because they do not know something here.

 

If someone managed to find their way to that page and NOT understand that $165 million is not the real price and that the page is probably a placeholder of sorts, then they probably deserve to catch some flak. 

 

The people complaining about how "it shouldn't be there, blah blah blah" are the same people that would defecate bricks if the website wasn't 110% ready on release day. Now they know the page is there and ready, linked to the store and ready to go. It sounds alot smarter than putting the page up 10 minutes before hundreds/thousands of people start flocking to it and just crossing their fingers.

No I don't believe I did

 

Sir I refer you to what I said earlier:

 

The main reason I replied, because people here on the forums attack newer people for not knowing what something is. Bottom-line PMDG could have avoided this and made the reason for having this, on the product page, much more clear. Instead of STILL talking, and attacking people about this matter

 

You have proven my point! Why did people begin attacking, talking about dead horses and the rest of the bs? A lot of people have such ignorant comments here.

 

 The fuss is about people overreacting to a simple question that was asked way back in the beginning. Quit being so ignorant and instead of talking about stupid dead horses explain to someone new to the 777 discussion why the product is listed as it is in the first place. Unfortunately by now if you don't get the point to stop attacking people because they do not know something that you do, you are a very small minded person. The people who blew this out of proportion were way before me so go back a page  to the top and see what I'm talking about.

 

I would expect a beta tester to agree with me on the fact that you should EXPLAIN to people something that they do not know instead of shooting them down immediately. Stop shying away from the truth. I'll restate it one final time, the reason I got mad is because people shoot down someone because they do not know something here. That's it, I have no beef with PMDG, and have no reason to. I don't care how long it takes to upload a product to a website or how "hectic" a server will be, I don't care. Stop referring back to that topic because you cant cover up the fact some people here post ignorant comments to others when it is not necessary. That's the real problem but I can see some people just don't get it so why should I waste my time on this thread arguing to such disheartening people, you guys just scare others from bringing up other IMPORTANT topics here that could be useful so you are only hurting the entire flightsim community, your ignorance wont let you see it. Nothing else you guys say can deny that so lets move onto something helpful.

It's amazing that you could rail against me so much for something I didn't actually do. My post was aimed at you, not at the OP. The sweet irony is that you're absolutely raging against someone when your whole argument is to stop other people doing that!

 

The price/placeholder/comedic value of the PMDG page comes up at least twice daily. It is getting as repetitive as the release date threads. You say that the price is 'an important topic', you say it 'could be useful' - I disagree, simply because it is brought up so many times. Everything is speculation and conjecture in the threads and nothing good can come from it. There is nothing anybody can do except sit and wait for the release topic from Mr. Randazzo.

First off, I do not give 2 craps about whether or not you or anybody else agrees or disagrees because I am NOT pre-occupied  with theprice/placeholder/comedic value of the PMDG page and I have already said that, this is not my point idc.

Second, the first sentence in the above quote was not aimed at you but, was aimed at scandinavian13, lets clear that up immediately.

Third,  in my response to you in one of the previous responses I made, I was  trying to get the point across to everyone, including you. Obviously when you say "I really, really, really can't understand the fuss" you join the group of people that  don't see the ignorance  displayed in the posts from  first people to comment on this thread. In turn,your above quoted is debunked.

 

 

My post was aimed at you, not at the OP. The sweet irony is that you're absolutely raging against someone when your whole argument is to stop other people doing that!

 

 

The irony that you think to be "sweet", I believe, is rather "sour" due to the fact that over and over and over again people everywhere, not just in this thread, but on the whole 777 discussion get pushed around and bullied by people that think they know everything like yourself. In order to break through that nonsense, someone should voice their opinion for once and that is exactly what I meant to do. If you believe I am "raging", I beg your pardon. If you cant take the heat get out of the kitchen, or better yet don't comment. Now when I say this I know there are people here who DO know what they are talking about otherwise PMDG would not have pretty outstanding products. We all know something so lets all make what we know known worthwhile and helpful to the development of current and most importantly future PMDG products. When you do give your input and ideas don't be ignorant in doing so. Sadly this has not happened, especially on this thread, and this is why I am "raging". But once again if you cant take the heat get out of the kitchen, or better yet don't comment. This is where I'm coming from and where I'll be on this topic so in the end this was necessary for some people to think about how they say things here. I'm out.

If it's any consolation, I see where you're coming from. However it's hard to repel the "defenders of the realm" when they feel the kingdom is being wronged.

Bottom-line PMDG could have avoided this and made the reason for having this, on the product page, much more clear. Instead of STILL talking, and attacking people about this matter, it could have turned into another useful discussion that maybe would help the development of this plane even further. People get off your high horses its not that big of a deal, there isn't to much to hate on PMDG about but, blame PMDG,not the newer people to this 777 discussion.That is the point I'm trying to make.

Hey I wasnt getting at nor attacking anyone,  merely giving an all round interpetation,

I did clearly say,

 

"I dont reckon on getting all bent outa shape over it to be fair some new folks might still ask about this fair enough"

that was   "I" as in me personally, and  "some new folks might still ask about this fair enough" and that is fair enough.

Fair anough eh ?

Guss.

so you really dont know about the whole flack saga, well tbh Im sure its best left out now.

Longer, more vitriolic post than Scandinavian13!

Who knows, maybe he was just trolling trying to find out who all the forum ##### are?

 

The only thing worse than someone re-posting that price tag are the chest thumpers hoping to boost their e-peen rating by jumping all over  anyone that posts it with their tired jokes and diatribes.
