ok.. for those who cant read my native language and for those, who are too lazy to translate all this words, i wrote 
this is just a translation of the meaning of my previous post.
my ass did just explode, by reading the same stuff again, and again.
'when does 1.8 come out? blah blah blah
alot of people, who wasnt seen really much times online, are crying and longing for 1.8.
does it really matter, which version is being played?
the game will still be the same
GET A SHIP - MAKE MONEY (somehow) - SURVIVE
or what the hell do you think, will be different in 1.8?
ships do fly faster reverse?
order to fly on the right sight, for all ships?
no permission to pass other ships, if too much traffic is in space?
opponents are weaker, to not scratch the ego of anyone?
cockpit-lights, for nightflights?
flashlights, for speeding?
the meaning of the game will still be the same, and wont change, i guess.
shouldnt it be in this way, that people are joining servers, to play the GAME, and not cause there is a newer version running?
there are so much different mods and servers running. im sure, there is something for anyone to find.
(for myself, i just played crossfire, and i think i will just play crossfire)
and when i read statements like
'im rejoining the game, when 1.8 is available, i can just start throwing up/crying/laughing (dont know what first)
without offending someone, but how silly must someone be, to have such a statement written?
do you really think OP does really want to continue working on 1.8, if he has to recognize, that no one is even playing 1.7?
what do you think does him make continue to work on that project? (surely not the loss of people playing a previous version)
do you really think that OP will continue investing money, time, nerves, and god knows, what else, just because there are a few people mentioned, they will come back when the next version is there? .. right.. and santa claus is reality and is playing poker with the easter rabbit [3]
and for myself. im playing this game, because of the game, cause i do have fun playing it.
and even there is not everybody online all the time.. sorry, but there is something like a private (REAL) life, beyond the game. and for some guys surely work, too, cause somehow, does money have to be earned.
and for those, who think they have to disappear, till 1.8 is there, get real. and realize what the meaning of PLAYING THE GAME is.
if no one is playing the game (no matter what version) what reason should be there, to make a newer version available?
FL will stay FL - for sure with different features, which makes some happier then others.
so long.
who does not like my statement, dont have to read it.
maybe its a little HINT for some people, to think about their acting and statements.
