I'm sorry....

To be perfectly honest here, the picture thing was just a contributing factor. I just hate seeing the C-47 VC thread bumped with idle stuff like "Ooooh, I've been dreaming about this, I can't wait, this is going to be the best add-on ever, why isn't there any news, oooh, ooooh!".
First: This thing is on my watchlist as well. I like what the team did so far and what they want to do with the cockpit. Although I'm not much of a fan of something slow like a DC-3, I might give it a whirl when it's out. Because it looks really good. Quality modeling, quality texturing, quality everything.
Second: I'm disapponted whe I see the thing bumped with posts having nothing to do with the actual development. If it was an update from the team with new pics and the subsequent reactions or an "Just seen your thread, here's some reference information, because my father/grandfather/dog/cousin works/worked with them." kind of post, it would be fine with me.
Third: I'm jealous. A thread about a work in progress project with glacial progress speed for a plane that has been done before and is even included in MSFS by default generates 452.5 pages and regular bumps with only occasional status reports from the devs themselves. Masses are looking forward to it, while stuff I've made in development marathons goes under within a week or relies on a repainter to stay afloat. Not fair. Not fair at all. Yes, jealousy is a sin (just as impatience is) and I'm that much of a d-bag.

So much for a confession. Don't feel bad if you got sucked into any resulting argument. Anyone up for drinks later?





Click the picture, press "Delete" and all will be well.

Us repainters have to be good for something...;)
 
Donny:
I can not not follow the thread. What if the team posts a development-related question?

Ok, understandablel. Then I have another suggestion: Dont reply, only red untill there´s something thats actually interesting for you. This way 2 things will happen:
1) you´ll save a lot of time and get less frustrated
2)There´ll be lees off-topic in the thread.
 
Paul:
Everything you guys paint, I don't have to paint. So thanks for that. (This saves time which can be spent on online arguments. Great tradeoff!) :D


Donny:
"Don't reply" and "less offtopic" also goes both ways.
 
Hey guys, I've got to tell you'll that this thread has provided me with some comic relief. I can't remember a thread that I've started that has garnered as many responses. I hope everyone else has seen the irony behind this post. I'll now go back to my little corner of the FSX world and work on a scenery project. Bye.....

I am sorry too. As usual I don't have a clue what's going on but I'll take the blame for it. After 30 years of marriage I am used to it. Both being clueless and taking the blame.
:confused:
Oh brother I commiserate. As Red Green used to say "We're all in this together."

To be perfectly honest........
For those who don't know, Bjoern is just a computer aka Deep Thought and a cross between Mr. Spock and Don Rickles.

My derogatory term for dogs should have made it clear that I'm just a cat with internet access. Extremely smart, but less than compassionate. Except when there's food.
 
I wish someone would tell me how to get my foot out of my mouth! it's been stuck there for 58 years. Makes it hard to eat.........
 
Bjoern, I dig your stuff.

737 is great, and it has an easy to use paintkit. L-39 is a frequent choice here, and I'm just waiting to get a few planes before I try maintenance & income.
