Over at Rise of Flight we pay about $8.00 for each new aircraft we wany to download & fly...they average about one new one a month..As a long standing beneficiary to the mods here & at SAS I feel like we get the best deal on all sorts of things including MANY new aircraft & are asked very little in return...so I figure each time I see an" urgent donations needed" message its about time for me to donate again & I do! The sim is richer for AAA ( & SAS too) & it would be grim to have them go under- They deserve our support$$$$$!

Hmm... Maybe I ask my father to make a donation for this mighty community as I don't have my own paypal account.

I mean, if I were old enough to have an account I would donate, but I hope this isn't going the way of: "if people who have RoF pay for new planes,maybe we should too". It is not fair to deny users the ability to dowload planes because they can't afford it. I mean, by all means donate if you wish; but here at AAA we aren't forcing people to: that's what is so good about these modding sites.

Just like me.

This site has a strict policy about this.

The mods are free and are not to be used in any commercial way. "Selling" the planes like this would go against the site's rules and, If I'm not totally off, copyright rules as well.

Nobody gets paid for their work on this site, and it will remain that way. This is why we cannot do this kind of thing

The way rise of flight is doing it is so wrong in my books. It has turned the flightsim market into a pay-per-plane way instead of the brilliant way that Maddox Games did with IL-2. Releasing a big addon every so often instead of one plane at a time makes people more interested in buying the game, as well as the free planes that were incorporated into some of the patches. That's my opinion anyway :wink:

Cheers

I'm with Arctic on this one, and I derely hope that when Oleg makes SoW he doesn't go the way RoF did...

I mean, if I were old enough to have an account I would donate,

Yes (excuse the double post)



:evil: Moderated by... well, let's face it philip, you know who! :twisted: Don't double post! How many more times must i tell you?

[Fryslanboy]

Sorry, but how old you have to be for an Paypal account??(my dad has one, but he doesn't like a thing, what has to do with the military)


PS: strangely enough, he accepst the thing, that i am going into the Airforce (just started with course for it)

Cheeers!

Dunno, but i've had one since i was 15 or possibly 16, i think. I was under the impression that all you needed was a valid bank card.

You know all I was trying to do was be nice...and complimentary to AAA ...Maybe I should have added a ????

Ah, thanks for the info mate :wink: Will try it out ASAP

[P/O W. 'Moggy' Cattermole]

I feel i ought to add that i might have missed a note saying you must be over 18 to use it.. Not entirely sure, but i was using it before i was 18 no problems.

[Fryslanboy]

With other words, you used a false birth date?? Just kiddin' mate :wink:

[P/O W. 'Moggy' Cattermole]

Nope, i don't think they asked -- when i signed up to ebay, i gave up when they asked for an over 18 birthday, by and large, i like to do things legitimately. If it all goes arse over tit (eg some bugger pinches your details) and you haven't ligitimately signed up, you may well recieve less help, if any at all.

I agree! Dietz is simply encouraging all of us to respond to the request by the AAA Site honchos , themselves, for donations...pointing out the Positive fact that AAA MODs are free, versus other FlightSim's which charge for Mods and additions.

The totally surprising negative tone of at least two of the subsequent posts seems totally inappropriate, and those posts unfairly imply criticism of Dietz' post. Uncalled for, imho.

Oh I agree But I thought you might be suggesting we go the rof way...

No, I agree with you m8
