Access to PMDG forum

Featured Replies

Why do I have to go through two independent login procedures in order to access the PMDG forum?

 

Furthermore, AVSIM's procedure to reset a password is extreme. They will perhaps quote the overused word "security" and it would be understandable perhaps that they have cause to be paranoid but if AVSIM had not upset so many people then they would have no cause to be afraid!

 

I would be a much happier PMDG customer if the forum were not under AVSIM's umbrella.

Huh?

 

There's only one...

 

...and why is this in the 777 subforum...?

Had you posted this in the right forum, you might've seen this:

Which mentions this:

 

 


3) We ask that you please not engage in debate about whether PMDG should continue to call AVSim home or not. Such a conversation is inappropriate and we really don't think it is constructive.

My post was placed in the forum that I am interested in, so in that respect it was placed in the correct forum!

 

As the forum has taken over from more constructive and direct communication with a supplier or manufacturer there is no other means to make a (possibly) more 'appropriate' comment.

 

I do not care for censorship!

 

I logged on to PMDG and followed the link from its website where it required two emails from AVSIM before I could finally logon to PMDG-that is THREE processes!

 

The AVSIM forum denies me the ability to freely browse the PMDG forum, instead it demands that I login! Is this a means of keeping tabs on people? Because I do not believe AVSIM's assertion that the servers are too busy-ALL of the time.

It shows in your member status that you joined Avsim 3 years ago. you only need to log in once, I am guessing that you forgot your password ?

I am not interested in any other forum, besides don't you think it is my decision what forum I read or subscribe to?

 

I have even LESS interest in the AVSIM forum!

 

Your comments are another very good example as why it is a bad idea, from its customers' perspective, for PMDG to use a third party (AVSIM) to provide its forum services.

Wow some atitude   you were given some  advice  and simply threw them back at the posters good luck with further  help

So he is against what he deems censorship and people helping him in a forum. Maybe if you got help from users you would know you don't need to log in 3 times. Once is how the rest of us censorship fans do it. You fail at forums and the internet. Retire now and take the attitude to people face to face. I am sure it will change then.

The forum structure is there for orientation, not for you to muddle it all up!   :lol:

What happened to AVSIM

The link that Kyle directed you to was not in an AVSIM forum, it is in the PMDG General Forum,  which is where your post would have been more appropriately placed, given that the topic has nothing to do with the T7. 

 

Have a Nice Day!!  :smile:

Right.... I'm gonna go ahead, grab a bag of popcorn and mentally file this under the category "don't feed the troll". Have fun in this useless discussion, Mike.

And while we're at it... It might be worthwhile to read the terms of this forum. After all, you accepted them when signing up, so they just might be worth adhering to.

If you decide not to respect the wishes of PMDG, why would they have to respect, or even consider, yours?

What are you talking about? After you have registered to Avsim and logged in you have access to PMDG forum, that's it.
