  1. Dude, ur gonna get banned the first day you try to pull that shit. They are less tolerant in there than here.
  2. on your own bud...
  3. WHAT HAPPENED TO RANDOM USERBAR?!?!?!? was going to use it on other forums now that i actually GO to other forums...
  4. first off, its supposed to be "real" but its supposed to be fun too. its not a job. its a hobby. Also transponder code 7500 (if it gets squawked it shows on everyone's radar screen. the airplanes color which is usually GREEN on radar screens, will turn RED in order to get attention) and you can usually do it silently too. Just turning a few knobs will do that. EDIT: Emergencies like that dont happen UNLESS the pilot does it. Its not random. You can set up the flight sims to automatically make an engine fire, or fail a certain instrument, or a random instrument, some time during the flight. To be clear... ITS A SIMULATION, its not REAL... EDIT 2: I also doubt that every controller on the system is trained to handle emergencies. You could have a student controller on there, and if he just started learning, you'd tell the pilots to terminate the emergencies so he gets the hang of it. Once he gets the hang of it, then emergencies usually are fine. ALSO: you dont want every pilot heading toward the airport to simultaneously declare an emergency would you? That just doesnt happen in real life. Thats why the VATCs have the power to terminate the emergencies.
  5. Peter Graves has died at the ripe old age of 83 Please pay your respects.
  6. reeealllly smart one there :/
  7. WTC? EDIT: they will ban you off the network for that. also: I passed my clearance / delivery test, so you may see me soon manning LAX_DEL or the LAX_GND position if you fly on the network. My operating initials are BS for anyone who cares :/
  8. http://aram.xkcd.com/color/ I don't know why he's doing it, but he needs people to name colors. I think its for a color-blindness survey or something like that. Anyways check it out.
  9. Zone is not offline: However, HS Ship Database is.
  10. hahaha unintentional DoS.... awesome mav... lol
  11. Topic TLDR... siding with cerium on this one. i've learned multiple times that i should only do stupid things when his person is not physically in the zone. AS IN: If you see Ceiu on the player box, DONT DO IT. It's as simple as looking up thru the chat logs and see if someones doing something illegal. Mav, shut up, and learn from this. Dont be a retard.
  12. where ur driving along, and you have to spot the alphabet in order from a-z
  13. http://images.oddlyspecific.com/oddlyspecific/2010/02/129115117278083712.jpg Submitted by: Somewhere in WY, near yellowstone via Oddly Specific How many road trip arguments could have been averted if there were more of these signs? Source: http://oddlyspecific.com/2010/03/funny-signs-alphabet-game/ It's the whole alphabet on 1 sign except for F, D, J, and V if you wanted to win with that one.
  14. Screenies of Radar Program part of it. I'm looking for an actual VISUAL version right now.
  15. pretty much yea
  16. Lol. Yea let me know if you do. I took the ATC controller basic exam. Once I get assigned a virtual facility ill let u know where you can fly into. Just make sure you post your callsign before. I wouldn't know. There are multiple simulator programs that can connect to it. I wouldn't be surprised if somone has a "patch" that could allow msfs to connect. Otherwise its a sim.... like 2nd life but more serious
  17. If you are interested: Read... otherwise, don't be a dick and don't troll... From some people in my aeronautics class, they have led me to this suite of software called VATSIM (well not suite, more like independent programs that talk to each other.. W/E) Anyways, i took a look around, and it really seems to be legit. They give you options of different pieces of software and you can use (VRC, for example, for your radar and ATC information). TO be an ATC you have to apply to a region, and actually go thru some training... otherwise the server would be full of 18 year olds with nothing better to do. You start out as a Pilot / Observer (as in you can start flying immediately using a compatible flight sim) Anyways, if you guys are curious, check out http://www.vatsim.net/ I will be joining the VATUSA region / division tomorrow once my registration data propagates. If ur on there, ill let you know which virtual airport ill be "working" out of incase you guys decide to join up. Go to the vatsim site for more information. I'll post here once i get it up and running.
  18. I wanted to share: http://www.flashasylum.com/db/files/Comics/Dave/comicglassesasshole1.png Cyanide & Happiness @ Explosm.net
