Hi everyone,

Firstly, please what ever I type here, is not a insult or a bicker, about this site, but I have noticed a few things I am struggling with.

1) I am very new to all this, well I have had the FSX game for a while but haven’t had time to ,really sit down and enjoy it, to its fullest, however now that I have signed up to a great forum,(in my eyes one of the best I ever have found on the www, I am but finding it hard to get to grips with some things, such as, I noticed that threads seem to be newest post first, then last, meaning I would have to start on page 2 and read every think to page one, should it not be the other away round????

2) I am happy to read true every post/threat you have on here, and ,in a way its easy to find some answers one seeks, but I find it hard to find the threats, like when I first signed up I was not even aware of the “outer marker” or newbie help threads, until I spend my second day, when online looking ,as I said when I first posted ,the I would read as much as I can, could it not or would it not be simpler to make a area specific just for new comers, so they can get orientated, before they go out in the big world here.??

3) I mean no disrespect in anything I say, it’s only what I see, but I have a issue finding, my last post, could or is there a way of setting it up, when you log in that you click on “read all new posts” or “view my posts”??


I do hope this is not taken the wrong way, but seen from a new members point of view….and when are we all going to meet up on team speak and have a hours of complete chaos, on the flight sim.???

Training sessions, for new pilot’s???

Regards

Jason

Go into your "User CP". From there, you can set your options as to how you wish to view threads. There are various ways to have them display, from newest to oldest, etc. Also, I don't know how you are arriving at these forums, but if you bookmark this URL: http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/index.php you will be taken to the main forum page. This will show you all the forums hosted here, including a "Newcomers Services" forum.

Experiment with the settings in the User CP area and I'm sure you will come up with the settings that suit your fancy.
