@YarisSedan Can't say I've heard of the brand MSI before. What are its specs? Can it run SP?
Tangentially related, but I recently found out my sibling got an old PC from a friend of theirs (who I've never met, as have I not met many of their current friends, but I digress). Issue is, it's from like 2017, and I'm not sure if it were high-end even then.
They did say it was a bit below another friend's 2018-high-end PC. In any case, its only practical value is probably just to get their Windows in order as they're otherwise an Apple user. Fancy tower though, and they did get a new keyboard and monitor for it. And storage 'cause no hard drive.
Where was I going with this? Right.
Brought that up as I'm wondering if its a similar situation, only really useful to get stuff set up but not to actually play current games.
And please for the love of all do not remove these comments. That would not be moderation, that would be sweeping a problem under the rug so others can't see it.
@SupremeDorian I am aware that there are rules against harassing moderators on other websites (and with good reason), but I'm curious if there's any policy for harassment against normal users on other websites by other SP users?
I say this because a former SP user (who has announced to me their intention to never return, but retains their account nonetheless) has been making life... difficult for me on other websites due to their own personal vendetta against me because of my activity on this site.
Is there any ability of this site's moderation to discourage cyberbullying and other harassment elsewhere on the internet due to feuds originating here? (That is, by SP.com-based penalties, as symbolic as they may be at this point)
I'd understand if there isn't, of course, but it would be rather annoying if my harmless activity here has stuck me with a lowlife following me around with no further intentions beyond bothering me. I have screenshots, to be clear.
I can't imagine anybody else, unless another SP user regardless, would know of this user's hatred of me, so it's probably them and not an impersonator.
If there's nothing you can do, I completely understand. Said site's report feature was always bad but is completely nonexistent at the moment, so there's no help there.
@Ashdenpaw1 This is a forum not a Time Machine. If you want to talk to your past self go harass @Boeing727200F I am CERTAIN they’re operating an illegal time device of some sort.
Thanks for fixing it btw. Idk if the pattern is right anymore but I’ve gotten my screenshots and couldn’t be bothered to get it perfect again.
Did you see their username?
Oh yeah just FYI Monarchii I'm writing something so if I end up sharing it here there's probably going to be a rabid anime girl set loose so I can threaten to withhold aid until you retrieve a particular detail from it.
Keep in mind that many image hosting sites are banned in some countries or on some networks. I'd strongly recommend just using Gravatar as it's what the site already uses for profile pictures
You said it, Monarchii.
@YarisHatchback Exactly. It is stupid, and yet here we are...
Wait, people buy parts for laptops?
@YarisSedan Crikey.
I've not heard of that other brand either.
SimplePlanes users and being not normal.

@Randomplayer Is that legal?
+2The mesh looks excessively complicated for SP, presumably rather performance heavy?

Yep. LM.

@Boeing727200F my first assumption is going to be LM
@Boeing727200F bot nonsense, ignore them.
Groingy lmfao I can’t
@Boeing727200F they’re a bot ignore them
+1You lucky sonuvagun
Cars are weird.
@windshifter1 I can’t count
@Icey21 Your plane ain't.
@Icey21 Yeah no that's bullshit. If you're fighting an autotracking death beam with a WWI biplane you are going to lose every time unless you cheat.
@Icey21 I don’t follow?
+1@Monarchii Remembory loss
Lunges with the force to bowl over a thousand toddlers
Hehehe
@Monarchii
I can’t tell if this is a pun or a spelling error
@CaptainNoble I didn’t know the bots paid cash. How much do they give?
@V A great system in theory. Unfortunately easily abused.
Oh yeah just FYI Monarchii I'm writing something so if I end up sharing it here there's probably going to be a rabid anime girl set loose so I can threaten to withhold aid until you retrieve a particular detail from it.
@Monarchii I see.
I wouldn't know what that's being in spite of.
@Icey21 Then you'll end up being forced to create something incredibly unrealistic in order to survive.
+1Is it candy corn flavoured?

What do you mean by good opponent?
+1Yeah I saw that. I'm giving advice to improve your work in progress project.
????
Have you considered using a slightly stretched hemisphere for the cockpit?
The effect can work reasonably well.

@Bugati87 Dude, what the hell
@Aerovations I dunno
@Monarchii Can't say I've heard of them...
@Aerovations I’ve not the faintest
@Monarchii I more meant collab groups/brands, assuming that is what this is.
@Boeing727200F
Another one of these eh?
Weren’t those big in the earlier years?
+1@Boeing727200F Train them.
German?
@Boeing727200F Good enough.
Rail this fool.
@LunarEclipseSP Yeahhh I doubt that.
+1Choppy framerate, eh?
