Bring back the old Forum

Imo those “Theory’s” won’t vanish as long as there’s the Trust System in place and actual ordinary Players can get access to stage 3.

Only Moderator’s should have access.

“They”, the ones that flagged our posts, not necessarily moderators. It’s private so we can’t tell, but someone did.

It’s one of the things I don’t like in this new forum, if you have a different opinion from a certain group “they” can simply silence you as far as I understood. I would prefer a system like the “likes” where you could see who flagged you.

In my opinion, this can be very toxic and very restrictive in regard to different opinions.

Please correct me if it doesn’t work like this, I’m new here.

If this is “as ready as it will ever be” I can only assume whoever did this work was fired. This entire forum system is clunky, hard to navigate, is VERY restrictive (limited number of posts per day, c’mon), and seems entirely rushed. Again, there was no transfer/adjustment time, the devs just dumped this on us with zero warning and expect us to all be okay with it.
Where was the transparency in this decision? It feels like Gaijin wanted to separate itself from the old forum and its readily available to read criticism of Gaijins decisions. Gaijin is making a massive mistake if they don’t think they haven’t already lost a huge number of regular forum users. This site is already 1/5th of the size of the old forum, and is less busy too. I know Gaijin doesn’t give a damn, but really? Killing off a sizable portion of your dedicated player base because what, they wanted new forum ?

Community didnt create this drama you guys did.

İm sorry but what gaijin did expect when they suddenly changed forum without informing their community in time, worst thing is this forum is not finished, many things are missing and after the havoc you guys caused this situation only puts more salt into the wound.

İm not against new things like i said before but this situation could have handled much better but yet again gaijin refused to do that once more, so dont be surprised if people will come here and starts to complain about how this type behaviour is not acceptable.

Why is it so difficult to navigate? This new forum engine is horrible, very disappointing decision to proceed with it. Surprised there wasn’t a beta test to gather feedback.

We are still getting use to things as well, how it seems to work is that community can flag comments and if enough do flag it then it is hidden… Mods then can review later and agree or disagree

For now it will be on self Moderation… we are watching to see how it goes… if things are abused by members, then we can always change how it works

That is good to know, but still we won’t know if it was hidden by a moderator or by some group that simply has a different opinion from ours and tries to silence us.

Unless moderators put a note on them.

(this is the beta test they’re doing the triple AAA thing of releasing an unfinished product to get users to find all the bugs for them)

Honestly the worst part about this new forum is one of those supposed upgrades, the fact that instead of subfolders everything has to be tagged correctly is a terrible system, I mean the dev’s own MiG-21 SPS-K news hasn’t been tagged properly, if the forum staff can’t get it right then I have massive doubts about user topic being correctly tagged.

Never said there is nothing you can do to change the current situation.

I sufficiently pointed out that ultimatums, threats to leave and retaliate against GJ itself is not going to work in the slightest in this case.

The forum is a privilege, and you have no legal right to it.
They can remove all access today and the mass majority of players wouldn’t bat an eye.

Instead of tears and empty threats, we should be providing feedback to improve the new forum and bringing relevant data from the previous and starting new threads.

This forum is not going anywhere. You will never go back. Mark my word.

“But this is now home.”

No, this is not my home.

This is the place wer they get you censored just because they can’t handle critics on obvious issues, no matter how polite is your answer or if your content is on topic. The majority of moderators here act more or less like censors and I’m yet to see any mods here stand up against anything gaijin does.

Ok then, go and start bringing topics across

Personally I don’t feel like tidying up Gaijin’s mess

When I find topics on this forum that interest me I will get involved in them, so far that only includes this one and one on the F-16 FM

You yourself have only one post outside this thread, if the forum is as great as you say surely there are better places you could be?

It looks to me like you are just enjoying riling people up here though, but what do I know?

Mark my words this will became a echo chamber. Of people who can’t handle other people views. We are already seeing it here.

There’s actually the possibility in your profile.
Just used it and it actually worked.

Click on your profile Pic - > Gear wheel icon, scroll to the right till you can read “Users” and add a name there, for example Ziggy1989.

… To slow on my end 😂

I hope it works :)

Btw how do you place the emojis?

I’m writing on my Smartphone and just used the normal ones provided by my smartphone keyboard.

Thanks, it works with windows virtual keyboard too for those using PC. 😎👌

Test: 🤡😈👻💩😺🐱‍🐉🦄🐌💸🏴‍☠️

We have hundreds of emojis now but I liked the old ones and the more recent ones since they were related to the theme of the game
