I would like to know what the rest of the Cyber Pilot community thinks about the below excerpt from an email correspondence that I had with Dale recently...
START * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
(this question was in regards to the new Ladder Pages and the lack of even the slightest mention of EFNet)
>1. There is no mention of the EFNet #hornet channel. There is only
>referral to the DALNet channels #hornet & #macflightsims. EFNet is still
>predominately used by most ppl, and I believe that it should rate a mention.

There won't be any. Reasonably, do you expect me to support a channel I am
banned from?

What I would like to know is if other people think that this is fair on new people trying to find somewhere to hang out and organise flights with other like minded people?
I do not think this is fair to deliberately limit the available mediums of communication to new people trying to participate in something we are ALL involved in.
As a proportional amount people hang out on the EFNet #hornet channel this does not seem fair to me, and seems to be some sort of monopoly on the flightsim community from this higher rank of the CWW.
It's like we are being held at ransom.
Dale I do not expect you to support something that u have been banned from, but as part of your responsibilty to CWW, shouldn't you put that aside for the benefit of ALL Cyber Pilots, new and old?
Thanx
