I have been on since the reset of Sim2. Its been 3 hours and I am still on January 1 Year 1.

Has the speed of sim2 changed? or is this a bug?

I don't recall reading anywhere about a change in speed, much appreciated on any info.

[RoyaltyAir]

Time will resume tomorrow.

I've reset sim 2, and time will resume tomorrow at 23:00 GMT. I have not reset sim 1, and am looking for feedback on how to go about it. We have not reset this version yet, and I don't think it's going to be without bugs.

This clearly states when the game will start, in the following thread:

Perhaps next time, do have a look at the announcements, where vital information tends to be posted by the developer.

Thanks , I must have missed that part as I read through it awful fast

Did the time of the day changes get pushed forward about 9 hours? The day would now change at 11:45 pm local time but now it's not going to change until 7:15 am (or some time around there) for me! That's rather inconvenient!

Well isn't that a shame. The game starts whenever the admin resets it. This game is played by people all across the globe so it's gonna be "rather inconvinient" for alot of people at some stage.Try thinking of others before thinking only about yourself!

Or perhaps you should think about not responding like a complete ass when someone has made a relatively innocuous comment, that really does no harm. If you perceive something like that to be bitching, worthy of slapping down, then I suggest you take a good, hard look back at a great many of your own posts. Honestly, you contribute far more discord around here than anything else. As a more 'established' and prolific player, maybe you could try being something of a helpful benefactor to newer players, rather than dumping on them from a great height, in order to further prove your apparent superiority. It doesn't matter if you think what they're saying is stupid, repetitive or whiny - there's really not that much reason to call them on it, furthermore, no cause to do it so nastily. Its completely needless and pathetic.

But I am an American! I can't be arsed to do that!

(just kidding!)

I realise that many people around the world play this game. I was just making a note that the time change is something that is different from the last round, but it's not going to stop me from playing. Though it may decrease my profit maximizing potential because of the delay between the time that my planes are delivered to the time that I put them on a new route (probably two to four real hours, meaning four to eight game days, meaning MILLIONS OF DOLLARS!)

Also, I find it ironic that "thinking about others before yourself" is a concept that is espoused here, what is probably THE MOST capitalistic game I've ever played.

Not that I am at all against it. Perhaps to show my charitable side, I will donate my older B1900s to the lowest bidder once I no longer have need for them.

On that note, I should probably go to sleep as it is 2:30 am here and I am getting new planes in five hours.

is the length of a day no longer half an hour...?

Like I really care what you think. It's an open forum and I am entitled to my opinion and to express it how I see fit (within reason) and I do.

I dare say I have many more helpful posts than you do here, all you do is come and whine whenever you see a post that does not relate to your way of thinking.

is the length of a day no longer half an hour...?

On a helpful note :sdrool:

The length of a day is still half an hour here.

Fine, I'm not really bothered about whatever half-cocked justification you're willing to offer up, because frankly, you're nothing more than a bully within this community - you act like an ass in game to other players, you're generally not that pleasant on the forums, and I'M entitled to express that if I wish... Nuts to whether i'm the most pleasant poster either, thats a separate issue. Furthermore, I'd say there's a pretty huge precedent for bitching between players on here anyway - what I object to is the fact that you have literally hundreds of posts where you slap people down needlessly. I think that if you're allowed to continue posting in this manner, I should be well within my rights to call you out on it without having my post deleted - I don't see any of the utterly odious rot that you do post when attacking other members being removed...which seems to me to be a pretty hypocritical bit of moderation on the part of the administrators.

So u cant be bothered calming down and be better than the rest? So what if Glennos posts on the forums like that, people have either 2 options.. to reply or not bother and focus on the topic of the thread.

Now honestly, we dont need dummy spits on the forums, so i suggest u start acting a bit more mature....

[gba222]

Fine, point conceded, valid criticism, etc - although I don't think that such posting should be allowed to continue totally unchecked, either by moderation or by other members voicing displeasure - thats a fundamental right. Resultantly, I don't think that maturity much factors in, when all I'm doing is essentially expressing my displeasure with his attitude. I'm not worked up or excited, hell, its not even a 'personal' attack - the internet is a poor instrument by which to judge and measure real personality anyway - I just think that online, Glennos is generally unpleasant, and made a comment on that - so please don't read too much vitriol or excitement into what i've posted. Anyway, its not that important, so lets not waste time debating it. You are right in a sense at least, so i'll drop it.

What I do still take issue with the moderation of my original post.

[Maestro69]

I believe, i wasnt on at the time and just read ur deleted comments, is that some words used in ur post were perhaps the reason ur post got deleted. Thats just my assumption, so perhaps, next time, use less colourful words to express ur opinion.

Perhaps a dictionary and thesaurus might be an idea?

[gba222]

I don't recall swearing as such, unless 'ass' is truly taken in its most vernacular sense! Ah well, no worries - i'll just hop on over to the Merriam Webster website next time haha! :-P

I sent a PM to the moderator who deleted my comment whining about it, and i'm kind of expecting a 'quit bothering me!' response anyway, so we'll see! In any case, i'm not out to cause offense, but perhaps I need to be less plain speaking in the future!
