Well, they post that every time they pin a dev update thread to the top of the forum.

They weren't responding to your post.

There was also a note in the forums from the mods that multiplayer needed to be (and was) significantly improved as well - stability, radius detection stc.

So looks like someone misspelled "pin".....  And that is what I was responding to....

Was just a bit of humor.

No, it's just become a bit of a tradition to "Pine" (rather than pin) a topic. It might have come from the early heated discussions on tree size or pre-dates that, I can't actually remember! Either way, the spelling is deliberate.🙂 Normally, @cmpbellsjc adds one or more 🌲s to the post but maybe the loggers are in town today!😄

Yeah this was kind of an inside joke a long time ago and I just keep going with it.

I moderate another non-aviation related forum and sometimes people will post something note worthy and people will comment that it should be pinned, at least temporarily.

So this one time a user posted something good and one of the first replies to the post the guy made a spelling error and said “you guys pine this topic”. It was rather funny since he meant to say pin it, but said pine. So after that, in good fun no less, anytime people wanted something pinned they’d say Pine it!! It actually evolved into some saying Shin this pit or shin it 😂😂 I think you can figure out what that means if you rearrange some lettersz

It has nothing to do with the constant complaints from Matthew who was always talking about the size of the trees, but it might have come across as poking fun it it, which it wasn’t.

Therefore, whenever Chaoticbeauty posts the weekly update I always pine it.

The casual community will like this. I don't mind. As long as they have reason to keep on developing.

I think it's great.

It will bring in a completely new audience to MSFS - online multiplayer gamers.  Which means more users, which means a bigger market for add-ons.
