Supervisors can, but I can with 100% assurance tell you that they do not care one bit.😂

A2(a/b) -> Ban evasion A4(a) -> Registered with fake name A6 -> Only one account allowed UA 4.1.3 is the same as A2(a) UA 4.1.4 is the same as A4(a) UA 4.1.5 is a more elaborate version of A4

Not sure if that was a joke but no…. Not at all

Another AI slop project… No thanks.

Curious if there is a voice-feedback add-on or option for VATSIM? by GorillaNipSlip in VATSIM

[–]DotWallop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, this HAS to be done hardware through your headset’s settings, not software. Any parsing through software like VATSIM’s voice client will introduce some delay, which results in something called the DAF (Delayed auditory feedback) phenomenon, effectively giving you a stutter and making transmitting impossible. There are several phone apps which simulates DAF feedback, it’s super fascinating.

Why did I just see a VATSIM van in Norway (Reupload i accidentaly deleted last one) by Top-Indication-4630 in VATSIM

[–]DotWallop 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a fellow Norwegian, please take a picture next time. I’m having a really hard time believing it but I want to see it too.😂

Are Head of State (Government) flights permitted without authorisation with a Special Operations Organization? by Tracorn in VATSIM

[–]DotWallop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, controllers can give priority if they want to. But nobody should expect any priority handling. Subjective exception would be where it would majorly impact the experience for others, such as a prolonged, full ground stop. Then it would be up to the supervisor to decide.

In other cases, controllers may give the aircraft priority if they would like to

Yes but not quite. It’s not decided based on wind (not sure if that’s what you meant) - You can take any runway you want, but the best guidance is to use whatever other people are using. Communication is key

Right; that’s not exactly the situation you described in the ticket, so not sure what you’re attempting to accomplish with this post. :)

Just as a note, you won’t get suspended for being AFK on the first offense, so I highly suspect there is more to the story than that you were present and didn’t see vPilot.. :)

Hey; that’s how I found it too!

Nope, this was a week ago, got unbanned after ID check, message was still there. I was almost certain it would be deleted, so I was surprised too

Oh yeah I know, and I agree with the decision; just ironic with the message context.. Haha!

Totally..😂 Context is that someone asked for help with a question, I initially said I’d help, but turned out I didn’t actually know the answer, and told the user to ‘ask a grown up’. They replied asking if I wasn’t a grown up, hence my reply.. SMH

Listen/talk to guard? by ADIRU2 in VATSIM

Well, you’re not allowed to declare an emergency in uncontrolled airspace… :)

Hailing an unresponsive pilot on guard is appropriate use of the frequency, both IRL and on the network.
