Yeah, I saw that yesterday. I'm always surprised to see posts like that when the user who's having problems didn't come to the FSDT forum first and seek help, especially the head of Avsim. I would imagine that if anyone would seek help first before posting a "rant'' against a developer, it would have been him.

I started to wonder if maybe someone hacked his account and posted that using his user name. Although I dont know Tom or have ever met him, I was really surprised to see that post. Then I saw that he was logged in and reading the post after Umberto responded to it and some other posts in that thread, but Tom never said a word or asked for help yet. Hopefully, he will get it straightened out and then post back that he got his issue squared away.

If it wasn't the real Tom Allensworth, he has yet to issue any statements or apologies.

I think it was the real one now since he did make one additional post in the thread, plus I am sure that by now it would have been locked or deleted by one of the Avsim staff it it was indeed false.

After reading all 6 pages of it, Umberto must be one of the most patient people and 3PD's I have ever seen considering some of the things that have been said in that thread, not that we didn't already know that considering some of the posts I have seen him answer here. Just reading some of the comments pissed me off and I have no stake in FSDT. It amazes me what some people will say to him over the internet, when in person I doubt they would make the same remarks.

Frankly, even though Tom did make one other post on the subject, I am surprised that he still hasn't asked for specific help from Umbertom. Although since we dont know what goes on behind the scenes, maybe he has already been in contact with him privately.

virtuali:
I'm fairly sure he's the real one (I really hope Avsim hasn't been hacked *again*...), and since it appear he had an issue with the Addon Manager not working, I hope he'll contact me, because I've offered him my help fixing his problem, but I'm also asking for *his* help, since I need some users unable to load the Addon Manager in any way even after all our suggestions, to help me testing some modification we can try to make it more reliable.
