December 11, 20232 yr Wow, what a milestone reached. I didn't even notice the MSFS forums here at Avsim has surpassed 500K posts: It must have happened in the last month or two months, where 500K posts was reached? I think MSFS is quickly setting new records at Avsim. If the admins keep MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024 in the same forum when MSFS 2024 is released, there will be a chance for the MSFS forum to reach 1 million posts at Avsim (something that no other forum has reached, not even FSX). Cheers to the most popular and most advanced civilian flight simulator out there. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM

And I hope MSFS 2024 will even accelerate the progress of flight simulation. Edited December 11, 20232 yr by abrams_tank i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
December 11, 20232 yr Guilty as charged! Except my original post back then was more about how big the MSFS community is, rather than putting any other sims down. I’ll go one further this time around and say how engaged the MSFS community seems to be compared to ones that have come before. if you look at the number of pages in each of the different sim forums, this forum has relatively few pages in total, which could be an indicator of how popular (and active) each individual topic is. Nothing against any of the other sims! I was very happy with XP11 before MSFS came along, but this sim really seems to have captured peoples’ imaginations!
