Flirting on the lines

Hey Guys,
I'm Pakistan-1 on the FG Forums (More Like The North Korea of Flightgear)
Recently I have received several warnings for quoting people and was warned that I may be banned :p
But Who Cares I like pointing at the unjusts of Society

Hi Pakistan-1

Welcome!
Oh dear....
You can't watch yourself these days.
Shall we have a French Revolution?
Only kidding!

Shall we have a French Revolution?
Only kidding!

I think we got to that point. kinda. and Not kidding.
Atleast people should express openly their discontents without fearing.

Beginning to sound like Stalinist purges all around at the FG forum.

Fair enough of an idea for the quote of the day on the inspiration thread

We need to overthrow the Stalins of FlightGear :p
And I still believe that Dovetail and Lamiar Reasearch are sending people to destroy our Community

[jwocky]

Maybe that's a stupid question, but who are Dovetail and Lamiar Research?

Dovetail Gamese = Devs of FSX Steam Edition
Lamiar Research = The Devs of X-Planes

[legoboyvdlp]

Afraid that is not possible. If they were paid trolls, then they would not develop in C++!
They might develop in Nasal, but not C++...

I think that's a little too conspiratorial, I'm more likely to conclude that the problems started with the switch at SourceForge to running advertising pop-ups, and including, ({ which is a biggy AFAIC} downloads with spamware executables in the code that make the freeware, advertising spamware...) and some monied powers behind Sourceforge project's new wealth are a bit concerned about the Creative Commons EULA's in FG.

The problem with X-Plane and FSX is that if FG was taken under their wing, all the developers in FG, no matter how small their contributions would win a monetary payback because of GPL2's requirement that past contributors are granted the profits made from going commercial. That's part of the reason for the development history data.

It's far too socialistic for those poised to make some money, in what I see as a purely libertarian level of duplicity, complicity, greed and character assassination, that I've seen countless times on Political forums. There's a certain pattern that's obvious.
