I agree with you. I too have had replies hidden that I just do not understand. And I've been locked for 7 days and had to pinky swear to adhere to the rules. The last post that they didn't like, which caused me to abandon the forums over there and move here: I’m generally very happy with my Alpha and Bravo, and was really considering the Charlies too, however decided to not want to wait any longer so bought something else. I’m very conflicted about this. For us flight simmers it would be great if this company existed, and continued to push out products, in good quality at a reasonable price.

Sounds like a ton of outstanding, unsolved issues and financial debt. Not to mention the publicity nightmare the brand has suffered. I would be very cautions of buying something else from them in the medium term, even and perhaps especially if another email comes promising everything is solved, orders are open again. What is to say he’s not simply dumbing inventory as a last ditch, you’d once again be left with with no support. I think the brand is dead…" This was in the Honeycomb news thread. "Your post was flagged as inappropriate: the community feels it is offensive, abusive, to be hateful conduct or a violation of our community guidelines." Half the threads you open they find some rules about you can only post by using their template, the other half you can't discuss tools they don't like (like the atmospheric tool before the latest SU, or the dynamic LOD) and then they just lock threads. In the past you could see the post that got flagged, but they took that away about a year ago. Since then more and more stuff get's flagged and hidden. Like someone said, their place, their rules, but it's becoming more and more useless to follow what is going on as you can only read what they approve of.
