Thanks to all who read and responded to my posts.
Sad to say, it is clear to me no matter how detailed and accurate my posts might be, they will not be received objectively.
The fact none of the responders to my latest post were ready to acknowledge Reddog's actions were unacceptable tells me ACG's members will not get past their preconceptions. Combine that with the number of comments to the effect "Buzzsaw is not welcome here", and it is obvious to me there is no point in further attempts at communication.
TF will continue to post updates on TF 5.0 from time to time assuming there still is interest. We do hope you will consider flying it.
Nothing more to say than best of luck to ACG on their future Campaigns.
Happy Skies.
Dear Buzzsaw, Please read all of this, I've kept it brief.
First and foremost in order to understand our forums, EVERYBODY is welcome here, especially key community members like yourself. Unlike ATAG, which joyously permabans any person who enters into any area considered dissent (of which there are many) regardless of how stylish their rhetoric is, here at ACG EVERYBODY IS EQUAL. Free speech and freedom is a cornerstone of this forum and we don't run it like a regime. We use Wheaton's Law as governance which is "Don't be a dick", and it's advisory, you won't be banned for breaching it.
I cannot quite believe what I have seen on the forums these past few weeks (and at IL2). I had hoped that the style of brutal regime moderation at ATAG was just an ATAG thing, hence our encouragement to move TFS away from it. Instead we witnessed an extension of the forums that are despised by so many, justified by the tyrant Bliss (who is now beginning his narcissism on the IL2 forum under your watch).
Regarding conduct, I am struggling to understand how you haven't seen anything wrong in your posts, in both morality, strategy and legality. Despite them being torn apart, derided and mocked by the general public and your own customer base, you now release this post, expressing no regrets other than it must be everybody else's fault. What are these preconceptions anyway? That we are brought up with enough moral fibre to refuse to be spoken to and treated in the quite abhorrent ways that you have exercised? Can you honestly see no wrong in anything you do? I can guarantee you that for every person who has stood up to say something against you here that there are 20 reading it and thinking the same thing. There are a mix of people here, many are very much Cliffs fans especially, and they will be gutted at your presentation.
I have struggled just how your mind works without negatives, and I'm afraid I can't because it's pretty obvious that you carry many of the traits of a narcissistic sociopath, the definition below, and I would be sorry to tell you that but people with such condition have seriously underdeveloped empathy so it doesn't matter if you actually tell them to their face.
Unfortunately, a narcissistic sociopath is the last person that you want as a leader of anything at all. It is very bad news for TFS and therefore to 1C, and I cannot envision success in any shape or form from our recent exchanges. You've done an amazing job at alienating a huge playing group entirely, I am sure Jason is pulling his hair out.
