Yup, your right, but we all miss the important point about useless posts, it is us that are making them, not singular but collective, we post them here ( KRS ) we post them there ( TSx ), we post them everywhere ( general forums ), so it is not a forum problem at all, its an inhabitant problem and it'll never go away so long as electrons flow through these protals.

Dont blame the forum, it didnt do anything other than exist for our whims.

Its nice you feel able to have the authority to speak for everyone. I'll think you'll find that not all of us are frustrated and others still hold the contrary opinion of your MSTS/Trainz comment.

Mike.
Why thank you :) I'm pleased you appreciate my efforts. But if MSTS and Trainz supply all your trainsimming needs why would you want to pay money to buy another? Well, I'm a frustrated railsimmer (actually more of an extremely frustrated route builder) even if no-one else is.

Now I feel all lonely :( :wink:

Now thats not fair :cry: ,trainz has kept me occupied for ages,and i still find it interesting,even if the sound is pooooo :wink:

I find about 90% of the time im route building,the other driving.With the release of making tracks superb uk routes,im being drawn back to MSTS although i treat both sims equally. :)

I agree some are frustrated,but that is expected since both sims have been around for some time,we are all looking foward to something new.

Godawful trainz...... :cry:

Rise above it. It's not far :wink:

I'm the same as yourself.

The most voiced and loudest opinions arn't the most widely held.

Those content to use both will do so.

Content, they won't waste time complaining and so will rarely be heard :)

Cheers
