Maybe a kickstarter would help Alfred or somebody else? I'm willing to put in $30.
That’s not really what it takes. It isn’t money. People, in this Title, contribute without regard to dollars.
People contribute in terms of interest. You want it, and you go after it long and hard, and you just might get it. But a new manual is simply a passing fancy. Everybody wants it, but nobody wants to work for it. Those that do (Alfred, etc..) are ignored when they work on it, and urinated on when they don’t have a suitable product in a suitable time frame.
That’s pretty much the way it is. Certain people, like warspite1, make smarmy comments about this that highlight their immaturity. But the situation is what it is. You guys don’t want to contribute. You all want someone else (like Alfred) to do it for you: but God help the poor puke if he makes an error, or does something that a JFB or AFB finds offensive.
There’s people that spend weeks, months, breaking the game and think the manual should reflect their efforts. You all know exactly why you won’t get a new Manual.
Ciao. JWE

Symon I have no idea why you act the way you do. You are clearly a very knowledgeable individual in many areas – not just war and war games – and of course your contribution to this game speaks for itself. But sadly, you are allowed to get away with things (without sanction) that others would not – even assuming they wanted to act in such manner.
You ruin or sour so many threads; you seem to delight in being rude, insensitive, bullying and just generally downright unpleasant.
You preach about the Good Lord and Righteousness and yet in about 90% of your posts it is unlikely that you could be any less Christian in your treatment of others if you tried.
If you think I am being unfair let me just give you a few examples, the purpose of which are to try and make you reflect on your behaviour. I hope you will take this on board.
1. Take the Japanese Unearth Remains thread. I wrote a post disagreeing with someone who suggested Allied war crimes were every bit as commonplace and as brutal as those of the Axis powers. You then responded in with:
quote:
“You little kids have absolutely no clue. Wonderful progressive trans nazional political after-thoughts, after we spent our blood liberating Europe. And you pathetic little weasels want to whine about atrocities.
Next time, I guaran. friffin.tee, we will Not be there and you will have to stew in your own damn juices, and to hell with you.
Yeah, welcome to the new caliphate and prepare your daughters as whores for the the jihadists”
BUT there was a problem (apart from the fact that the above post is, itself, outside of Forum rules) i.e. in responding you made it look like I had posted the original comment by posting my name against the statement someone else made.
I pointed out that you were not just quoting me out of context – you actually attributed to me, a position the very opposite of what I believe. Your response? Well having accused me of writing something I hadn’t, instead of apologising for the mistake you simply abused me further…..
quote:
“I been there warspite1 and done that. I fought for your pathetic ass when I didn't have to. Only reason you idiots exist is because we are here. You hate it: tough sh*t;
Ciao JWE”
Why would you behave in that way when a simple apology would have closed the matter?
2. Then there was the If the Japanese did not build Super-Battleships thread. A poster, DeltaV112 made some suggestions in a perfectly polite, non-controversial manner about his thoughts and opinions. For his trouble he got this obnoxious bullying response from you:
quote:
“You seem to be a simple wargame weenie talking about simple wargame weenie things. The detail in this forum is beyond simple wargame weenie nonsense. Almost all of your statements are wrong. You obviously know nothing about real ship design or real armament dispositions
You are clearly a troll with nothing to add to the discussion. Your statements on ship design/performance parameters are laughable. My SNAME (Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers) number is 37613. What’s your’s?
[ed] If you want to play on these threads, then you need to learn. If you don't want to learn, then go play on the main board, or go somewhere else”.
Please re-read this. Is that righteous? Is that Christian? No, it’s disgusting, bullying behaviour – and you should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself.
3. Recent thread about France in WWII. A sensitive subject came up – the attack on Mers-el-Kebir. Posters with opposing views on the attack were able to post in a grown-up, measured fashion – recognising how contentious the subject matter is. And then you choose to wade in with:
quote:
“After Mers-al Kebir, I wouldn't trust a Brit to piss in a round pot. Don't give a rats how many crocodile tears Churchill wept”.
Yeah – real mature, real grown-up response there. And you called me immature……
4. Thread during the World Cup 2014. Cannonfodder made a perfectly reasonable remark to the effect that Luis Suarez was an idiot (for the biting incident) in the Quarter-Final. There had been no unpleasantness leading up to it or any contention with the comment. Your response – completely out of the blue?
quote:
“Yeah, and you are obviously someone who we should listen to.
Kiss my grits. JWE”.
Where did that come from? You appear unhinged when you come up with stuff like this. And yet it is tolerated…..
5. Then the pilot leader ratings thread, in which you advocate shooting people that you don’t like to improve the gene pool.
quote:
“Wonder why it is that whenever a developer responds to a question all the little cockroaches run for cover and the thread is curiously silent thereafter. And then come out in a few weeks/months and repeat their silly pronunciamento, as though nothing ever happened.
Apparently, the forum is not interested in 'what is', just in how they might want it to be, and that differs for every individual.
It's obviously a useless exercise, because they are fat, smelly, 12 year olds, that can't learn unless someone gets their attention. So apart from just shooting them (a general improvement to the gene pool) it might be best to ignore them”.
Christian? No.
Warranted? No
Offensive? Oh yes
Against forum rules? Yes indeed
Childish? Damn right.
Oh and by the way, I didn’t mention the following quite bizarre post. This was made remember after you insulted Leandros and no doubt someone had a quiet word in your ear. I mention it now because – I remind you - in the post above you suggested that I was immature…..
quote:
“I must apologize to Mr Leander. My grandchildren often post under my login. They are teens and full of beans. They think it's harmless but it isn't. I have taken steps to insure they can no longer pretend to be JWE. Sorry for the flurry of nonsense. John”
You post in your usual, obnoxious style to insult someone – and we are supposed to believe your grandchildren made the posts. THAT is not immature behaviour Symon, no, THAT is just plain sad.
Anyway, you claim you are Christian. I hope you will read the above and realise that your behaviour is totally unacceptable and will seek to change.
