WARNING: Newsgroup overload limit reached

Andrew MacPherson 23 November 2008 19:13:00
 The flight-sim group monitoring service is currently reporting localised
overloading. After further investigation, we apologise for the recent spamming of
this group by a group of posters claiming to have some interest in what we believe
used to be called a 'military flight simulation'.

For younger viewers, a 'flight simulation' is a now largely defunct type of
software dedicated to allowing a certain type of hominid (homo cockpiticus) to geek
themselves to death with a firm grip on a joystick and loose grip on reality.

The military sub-genre took this a stage further, allowing users to carpet bomb
vast swathes of RAM in the 256,000-2048,000 address range, and dogfight with elite
computer controlled pixels up there in the top left of the monitor in between the
splashes of coffee and caked on bits of cornflake.

Fortunately this sub-genre of homo sedentari is thought to be dying out, mainly due
to x-ray radiation from huge CRTs in the 80s and 90s, which affected fertility
greatly... though not nearly as much as being interested in flight sims in the
first place. Homo flowerarrangicus popsprogii wasn't usually too impressed by that.

Normal service will soon be resumed as soon as unfounded enthusiasm for a DX8 sim
pretending to have been updated subsides. We thank you for your patience.

PS Yes, of course I'll buy Black Shark is they ever get around to a western release.
But I'm only expecting to do a bit of gentle flying around enjoying the flight
model. It is, after all, just a fancy patch for Lock On when all's said and done.
Most of the sim engine is still intact and unaltered, whatever they might say.

 Yes Andrew, but how will this relate to iRacing and the release of the
Watkins Glen track next week...
