Sad day for Mxsmanic

You've played a game and claim it's more than that.

It's a simulation, not a game. Games have objectives, and prizes, and
arbitrary rules.

You've never flown but claim to know about it.

You don't have to fly to know about it. That's what books are for.

No body will believe your claims no matter how many times you
repeat them.

Some have already believed me, but their minds were less clouded by emotion
and more firmly ruled by intellect.

Sorry little boy but it's way past time for you to
grow up and admit it.

See above.

As usual, you can't follow an argument so you make up non-sense.

The logic is impeccable.

Folks deal with your abnormal psychology every time you post here.

The abnormality I see is not in me. I'm not sure why, but USENET gives voices
to those who would normally remain silently at the bottom of the bell curve.

After about ten of your posts just about anyone is qualified
to diagnose your problem.

If that were true, then, logically, after reading about ten posts here from
pilots, I'd be qualified to fly a real airplane.

Utter, babbling nonsense.

The vast majority of games that are played by normal people (not on TV
or in casinos) have no prizes.

MSFS has objectives and arbitrary rules.

All of life has arbitrary rules.

If you don't understand that, you have major brain wiring problems.

OK, 2 trivial examples, not crashing the airplane is an objective
and every place has fuel that fills the tanks to the top in zero time
when you get near the gas pump is an arbitrary rule.

Nothing requires you to avoid crashing your airplane, so that is not an
objective. I've seen people deliberately crash airplanes again and again in
the sim.

The gas pump isn't a rule, any more than a mountain is a rule.

All of it's rules are objective and arbitrary, you ignorant ass. It's just a
game.

Doesn't the vendor indicate it's a game?

And in the past you have stated that you have objectives, arbitrary rules,

My use and the design of the program are two different things, although I
don't recall any prizes.

It's a game and you have already admitted it. Why deny it?

It's a simulator. Why deny it?

Horse****. You can learn about concepts in books, boy. You learn about
flying by doing it.

You can learn about flying either way. Some people are good at understanding
things when they are shown them in person and their hands are held, but are
poor at reading and understanding things on their own. I can use either
method, however.

Horse**** again boy. You can repeat you claims all you want but they will
nver be true.

Then that must also be true for your claims. If you believe it is not,
explain why.

Flight simulators have a legal definition under 14CFR.

MSFS doesn't qualify as a flight simulator which is why it is explicitly
called a flight simulation GAME by its maker.

That legal definition doesn't apply to anyone except the FAA, and affects only
simulators that claim to be approved by the FAA for logging hours.
