So now i'm running a tour, and different people are using different servers? beyond the point i think.

Something needs to be sorted, if it means putting the tour on hold for a week, because i think this kind of thing isn't very good, and other members, especially myself, when we come to a tour, and no-one is or isn't going to be there.

As ive said, it has been noted. I DO have some admin privelidges, such as helping kicking some annoying person on the server, but i dont want to do that, because it just causes grief. We are a friendly community most of the time, and lets keep it like that. a COMMUNITY, a COMMUNITY sticks together, and doesn't ponder off to different servers. If this is going to be the case, fair do's, that means i wont have to spend 30mins a week planning the tour, but if you are still wanting the tour, stick together, because at the moment it doesn't look like it.

Fair do, if that is the case then we better hope that someone higher up does sort something out.

Cheers Jimbo,

I really dont see what the problem is, but i guess others need it sorting. I'm doing everything i can. Sorry chaps, but i'm really P*ssed off with this. Switching servers etc isn't what i know of the original tours i have.

Hi Jimbo, me ol' Mate...!

The only thing I can suggest is that you supply your own Server address details together with a special password to gain access to the Flight.

This is what the other Site's Servers do, to prevent annoying so-and-so's from invading the flights and annoying the genuine players... Shocked

...!

The Sim V flight organisers used to do it in the past, and it worked very well...remember... Wink

...!

Jared does something similar for his "adult" Tours, and it seems to keep the annoying tits* out... Wink

...!

My "alternative" Server does exactly the same thing, indeed we all used to use them at one time...!

In the past I have been PM'd a Server address and password for a selected flight by the "Flight Host-er" and it was highly successful.

"Open invitations" don't always work the way you expect these days, unfortunately, and can cause chaos... Cry

...!

Paul....G-BPLF... Cool

I think I will stay out of this one from now on...seems to be annoying people.
I can see the view of both sides, but having people buzzing you in jets gets kinda tedious.
It would be fine if you could fly the jet at 170 kts. Lol
Cheers, and Merry Christmas,

Well, I am getting back into the Flight sim world after a long absence. Flying FSX right now and prob. going to load FS9 back up.

I remember when Jimbo started this thing up. I got in on one of the earlier sessions and many of, I think it was Jared's running down through SA hops.

If anyone goes through all the trouble of setting up something as elaborate as what Jimbo and others do for our enjoyment..........then by gosh every noodle head better be following the guidelines set forth......acft. type, speed, route, comms etc. If they are not........kick 'em with pointy toe boots!

You take on headaches heading up something like this as in clans. There has to be distinct rules/guidelines and they have to be enforced to the nth degree.

Thanks for your hard work and dedication Jimbo......don't give it up. Hope to see you all in there soon.
