you and the "Emperor" might not be cheating, but there's an obvious bug in the game with the connecting demand. when you set every airport as a hub you are basically magically making people appear out of thin air.
another obvious bug is you can charge $1 and have Scam food/sevices/legroom and people will fly. you lower the price by $10 and then they fly regardless of the spam meals that are $200 dollars for a bag of chips. (what are they made of, gold?) if I was flying from JFK - LHR for example, why would I choose the $15 dollar cheaper option when the legroom is horrible, & food is like $2000! while the other one has free meals, excellent legroom 32-34" economy and maybe free entertainment. i would definitely fly option 2.
these bugs are the obvious problems with the game. maybe someone did change the game to their favor, but i do know that there are obvious problems that do need to be fixed.
Can you provide any PROOF that I charge $1 or $10 for any of my routes?
If you change the ticket price to $1, you might make money using the NON-SCAM IFS that the developer of this game ALLOWED. But you won't maximize the profits you had and lose to other airlines regardless because of the thin margin of profit.
You failed to provide any PROOF regarding any of your claim and start making false statement to argue about the game mechanics. Seems like you're just bad at the game and try to find an excuse to berate other players who are good at this game.
The real demand update for the game made the game more realistic by reducing demand on most routes anyway.
