Believe it or not, I was a Moderator on a forum for quite a few years. So I appreciate that it can be a tricky job.

So here's a cat point for all moderators.

Perhaps it's better to be a big frog in a small pond. 🙂  Jon, you've been great and it's always a pleasure to read your posts.

Thanks for your kind words Larry.

I just got lucky, well very lucky really. I was a teenage flight sim enthusiast flying the basic sims of the 1980’s like a lot of us, but managed to make the jump to flying in the so called “ real world”

Rather than be constructively critical to seek changes, they are critical because that's all they can offer. They are thieves of joy.

Happily, there aren't that many of those types around.

What about the joy stolen from simmers like me? Who is still waiting for their sim to be restored to the fidelity and quality I spent a year enjoying, experiencing and documenting before it all got taken away with SU5 and 7? Spending years filing bug reports and wishlists hoping for change only to be ignored, silenced and banned. To then have the audacity to categorize them as a grumpy simmers and thieves of joy after this? It must take a special kind of worldview to say something like that and believe it.

Maybe you just have the wrong sim?

So much angst in the forums!
