Jetsgo, I don't doubt that your friend was banned and that it really happened. Still the use of FSP alone cannot be the reason, I still think there's
more to this story. There are way too many people on VATSIM flying with FSP for this to be the sole reason.

Mabye your friend got into an argument with the controller instead of doing what the rules say, to terminate the emergency or disconnect immediately
when requested to do so? I don't know what happened, but as real as that Email surely is, it doesn't tell the whole story.

I would think Nem is right...

Ah, you're probley right then. I did get the same message but for using an @aim.com E-mail address when I signed up and I was
permenently suspended, but thats a different story lol. But I've got it back now.

Best,

Really, Aibiria, I have to bash you a little for that tone. Worry

This forum has one of the best feelings and cosiness
around, and I won't let
anyone mess it up, but your post here is doomed to cause a flamewar beyond anything on this forum. Straighten
up your tone. Critizism is allright, but
tell it in a nicer tone. Even if it's negative.

And to defend VATSIM; Me myself have been flying with VATSIM for over 3 months now, ONLY with FsP and have
simulated emergencies a few times. I have
never had any problems at all, and everyone is most friendly and helpful. Most recent was yesterday when one of
the Scandinavian controllers
commented I needed clearance to taxi (darn me, forgot to ask for it Wink

), but he did so saying:

"Uh, sir, You need clearance to taxi, however there is no problem at the moment, so clearance is granted."
"Right, sorry, I forgot to ask for it."
"Oh, don't worry! We are here to have fun, are we not?"

And THAT is what I've encountered everywhere on VATSIM. Should be noted I only fly Scandinavian VATSIM. Now,
no more posts like the one above, thanks.

This thread is going no where. Thread closed.

Just kidding I can't do that Wink

Hello All,

The email this gentleman posted claiming that his friend was banned from VATSIM is a fake. We have searched all of our databases and
there is no record of any suspension for a Josh, or a suspension with those comments entered as the reason. The email Ryan posted is not even the correct format for a discipline suspension. The correct format would have a location, time, and region of the world. In short, it looks like Ryan was either lied to by his friend or bored and needed to stir the pot a little.

FSPassengers is definetly allowed on VATSIM. You are also allowed to have emergencies on VATSIM. Yes, if the controller is very busy
he or she may ask you to cancel the emergency, but more than likely you will have no problems when declaring an emergency.

In addition, the number of people banned for life from VATSIM, is less than 10. It just amazes me how people can take a rumor and turn it
into fact.

Richard Jenkins
VATSIM President

UPDATE:

Just looked in our database and the email Ryan posted was issued to Ryan and not Josh. Of course much of the email has been changed by someone to say something else. What it originally said was for Ryan to contact the VATSIM membership department to get his account details corrected and his account reactivated.

Actual Entry:

942458 810254 ADMINISTRATIVE SUSPENSION, REASON: INVALID/INCORRECT PERSONAL DETAILS 20050910203329

Omg, thats really funny. Well not really.... I guess he did lie. But I didn't change the E-mail I got? I had used the format of the E-mail I
got for using an AIM address because he didn't have his, thats why I X'd out the code. Ok, guess it was a false alarm... thanks Richard
Jenkins.

R. Jenkins · 22-09-2005, 09:00 PM

Yeah...okay...sure.....

Those comments have never been sent to anyone and there is no "Josh" with a lifetime ban from VATSIM. Now seriously, if "Josh"
received an email like that, which I know he didn't, you have him email and I will make sure he is reinstated within an hour.

I'm waiting....

Jetsgo · 22-09-2005, 09:03 PM

Josh is real! lol

pagir · 22-09-2005, 09:59 PM

Thank you Mr Jenkins to clear this point.

Many of us are Vatsim users, and we are all happy to know the truth about this.

Jetsgo · 22-09-2005, 10:06 PM

But for the record, I wasn't lieing, I thought I was telling the truth atleast! Wink

***DanSteph*** · 23-09-2005, 04:05 AM

I think this was really a bad joke.... some peoples seem to get too much spare
time in their hand or they were just feeded instead of educated....

Richard you have a private message , click on "message (1)" at top of this thread.
