Registration for all AVSIM events closes this Friday, the 26th. That means that you will not be able to register or attend the Friday night social, or the Saturday night Awards Banquet. You will be able to purchase tickets for entry to the exhibitions and museum on Saturday and Sunday, at the Museum gate. It is important that if you plan to attend the Saturday night Awards Banquet, that you register BEFORE midnight, Friday, the 26th of April. We will not be accepting registrations for the event after that date and time. Current registrations and attendance at the Awards Banquet is very good and we expect a very memorable event. Be there and view the presentation of the most prestigious awards in our hobby. You can register here. -
If you are attempting to book a room at the FANCON Hotel, you must use the registration code AVS. We strongly suggest that you do not call in, but register via the pre-coded hotel registration page here: Holiday Inn Registration Page. Remember, in order to take advantage of the reduced rate of $77.00 per night, you must register with the hotel before the 18th of April. -
If you are still on the fence about attending the FANCON and staying at the FANCON hotel venue, you might want to make that decision to attend and meet your fellow simmers from around the world. You will also meet cockpit exhibitors, companies famous in our hobby like Just Flight, PMDG and many others and attend the prestigious awards banquet, if you wish. The hotel room rate expires on April 18th, so if you have not made reservations yet, we encourage you to do so. Don't miss out on the largest flight sim event in North America this year! Join us at the FANCON! Register for the FANCON here! -
Dans un message sur son forum, Pete Dowson, créateur de FSUIPC, signale que toutes les précédentes versions de FSUIPC cesseront de fonctionner à compter d'aujourd'hui. Il a été porté à son attention par l'agence de certification Globalsign que la signature (certifiée) de sa dll à été utilisée pour masquer un virus qui se manifeste comme une mise à jour java. Afin d'éviter la propagation du virus, Pete a demandé à Globalsign de révoquer cette signature. Comme FSUIPC vérifie cette signature à chaque démarrage, la dll cessera de fonctionner à compter d'aujourd'hui. Afin nous ne pâtissions pas de cette situation, Pete a mis en ligne des versions non signées (4.90 et 3.999z2) qui vous permettront de continuer à utiliser cet utilitaire indispensable Vous pouvez les télécharger sur son site PS : encore une fois pour éviter toute confusion, quel que soit sa version, FSUIPC ne contient aucun virus. Seul sa signature a été utilisée. -
Every site that runs a forum software like ours allows the administrators to use "warning" systems and points collections to manage the community. We have recently revamped our system and want everyone to be aware of it, and the types of actions that will result in warning points given. Here are the points and reasons, and the consequences. Each offense has a time assigned to the warning; that is, one offense may have a 90 days period where the points given stay. After 90 days, those points are automatically removed. Point are additive. That is, if a person receives a warning with 2 points and 90 days, and then on the 60th day, gets another 5 points added, then the action for an accumulated 7 points is taken. In this instance, once the 7 point warning points is achieved, the user is suspended for 14 days. We have brought this system more into the mainstream in order to assign some graduated approach to dealing with problematic users, rather than the simple banning system (which, if the breaking of our Terms of Service is egregious enough, will happen too).

We were forwarded the following PM sent through our system. This is the second incident of this type in the last three or four days. The first one was from a Nim-Rod from Hong Kong. This guy is from the UK: "Hello XXXXX, Loving your pics & videos. Don't take this the wrong way but if I was to offer you a sum of money how much would it take for you to leak me the beta installer. I will even sign a contract to never divulge where or who I received it off and or post any pictures or videos. If you don't want to then no problems. Cheers Simon Jenkins" This idiot was immediately banned (as was the first one) and will not ever be allowed back on AVSIM. He should be banned from every flight sim site in the community. This is the kind of character that is a scourge to this hobby and the reason that YOU go through the security do-loops that you do and the extra costs that you pay. I hope the message is obvious.

important! System Update Status - Reporting Funkalities
Tom Allensworth posted a topic in Hangar Chat
We successfully updated all modules of the forum system earlier today, completing the process at 1700 EST. I ask that you keep your eyes open for things that appear to be broken. If you find anything amiss (we haven't seen anything yet), please report them in this topic. Thanks. -
Before we could answer the question, the entire "guide" was uploaded and placed on AVSIM. A document is copyright AUTOMATICALLY when it is published. PERIOD. Without written permission from the company or person who published it, any use of that document, as it was done here, is a violation of that COPYRIGHT. What is so freaking hard to understand about that? Doing so puts AVSIM at risk and is a blatant disregard of our Terms of Service. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION FROM THE OWNER OF A DOCUMENT, FILE, IMAGE, WHATEVER, DO NOT POST IT ON AVSIM!

On behalf of the AVSIM forum leadership team, I am proud to announce a moderation team enhancement.

Consequently, in addition to his present duties, he has been appointed as the lead moderator for the MSFS Scenery Design Forum and the MSFS Aircraft and Panel Design Forum. He will also be appointed second lead in The Paint Shop, The aircraft Painter's Forum, assisting Administrator Leen. The existing moderators will remain involved as needed to help and assist you in anyway possible. These forums, along with the Tips and Tricks Forum, fit hand in glove to Bill's proven technical skillsets, interests and abilities. We wish him every success in his new expanded role within the AVSIM forums. Thank you Bill for your service to this institution. Kind regards, -
important! Bargain Basement and Classifieds Back In Forums
Tom Allensworth posted a topic in Hangar Chat
AVSIM has been known for applying leading edge technologies and features to our site for years. One of the things we did was attempt to set up a comprehensive Classifieds system, that has ultimately proved to be more problematic than worthwhile to our members. Therefore, we have shut the Classifieds / Bargain Basement system down and have reopened the forum based versions of both. You can access them through the normal forum index page or you can click on the two links to the right in the HOT SPOTS list. We hope you enjoy the reopening of these two important facilities for AVSIM members.
