SUBSIM is dying

I have been a supported for over 15 years. It's been fun participating, and especially when we contributed with feedback to East and his team during the development of Enigma. I was even quoted on the cover.

Subsim is a rather small and fragile community. The mess UBI caused is already demoralizing most if not all member, and the inappropriate behavior by some forum admins do not make things better. Because of this behavior (deleting accounts with no warning or explanation to why) I choose not to participate at all.

Good luck with everything. I hope to see subsim.com still active in a couple of years.

How many times have we asked people not to post "I pirated SH5 to see if it would run on my computer, but if I like it I was going to buy it" ??

Too many. The rules are very clear, we don't want people posting casual remarks about how they are are pirating games. We don't want people informing the forum that they use cracks on their LEGAL games because there is no way to know if they are honest people trying to work around a PITA DRM, or they are lying and running a bootleg version of the game. To be fair, no one cares what you do on your PC in your parent's garage, but....

You cannot discuss it here.

It's on the signup agreement, it's on the new user welcome email, it's in the FAQ & Rules, and it's stickied in the Sticky: Note: Read before posting - you could be interested to know we have a few rules here thread here.

And if you think I am going to hand-hold every WOW-refugee and exchange 10 PMs about it... think again. I do not have time for that. And I don't get paid to spend my evenings doing it. So, after many warnings, if you cannot manage to keep yourself inside the rules, you could get nuked from orbit--username deleted, posts deleted, banned for life, just like it says in the rules that have been in place since 1999.

Sorry. You can come back as a new alias, but the rules stay the same. I would rather have a small forum of intelligent, thoughtful people than a massive forum of nutballs and drama queens fizzing at the mouth any day.
