[edited] VATSIM does not Prohibits programs like FsP.

[vaccaro]

....Hey, a friend of mine told me that IVAO users eat little children. Let's get out the knifes and pitchforks.

Sheesh.

mmm yes. i like food. thats why I fly ONLY IVAO :p

Good lord. Its virtual flight simming. With rules, regulations, and lawyer jargon like they have verbosely written in jibberish, you
would think
you were applying for a job as a solo gold inspector at Fort Knox.

I can understand they want to make it lifelike but novices to online flying like me...I wouldnt even make an attempt to try it for fear of having
some holier than thou person say I didnt know what I was doing.

Its supposed to be fun, not a job

fully agree with you

Well, folks I think what happened at VATSIM must have been because of someone who takes things real seriously. Or maybe he/she
was an inexperienced ATC so didn't want any trouble at KSFO.
Anyway, it wasn't a mature approach to things.

Some IVAO communications

KNR253 (me) : good evening sir, with you at LTBO gate (uh no gate here) anyway. IFR to LTBJ pls.
ATC: KNR253 stand by.
ATC: THYxxx sir what are you doing? I have instructed you to fly hdg yyy.
THYxxx: Sir we have an emergency. Cargo hatch open request nearest airfield.
KNR253 : sir are we gonna wait more? (passed only 1 minute) Passengers here anxious? I also would like to know rwy conditions.
ATC: THYxxx why you didn't check everything before departing? KNR253 what the heck you are doing at LTBO it is closed...(laughters in
channel)
THYxxx : Sir there was no technick at the airfield we departed.
KNR253: Sir i can't fit the a/c in my pocket and move somewhere else. I wanna fly from here.
ATC : THYxx, then what the heck you were doing at that airport where no tech people available. Descend 3000 and orbit. KNR 253 runway
is good you are also cleared to destination blah blah... (laughters in channel)
KNR253 : yay! thanks can we also get weather and QNH and etc etc?? and what does good mean???
THYxxx: roger sir orbiting but we still have cargo hatch open.
ATC: THYxxx go back to your airfield cleared to land and if you wanna depart again check everything yourself. KNR253 QNH xxxx good
means good you can depart I assure you (more laughters).

xxxx_CTR : Hello sir radar contact. I have heard that you have some precious cargo.
KNR212 : (on my remarks it was written BELLY DANCERS ON BOARD) Hello sir yeah you got the right info. Just tell me where to park
this thingy.
xxxx_CTR : in that case contact APP and I will be waiting for you at apron
KNR212 : roger that. cya there bye...
.........
This is what I call fun and friendly environment. I am not paid for flying just like the ATC. We are having fun when it is time to have some
and we get serious when we need to
