Seriously? I’m being disconnected from the server for a level 3 violation? As long as I have IF, I’ll follow ATC. But it has happened and still happens that there are no more instructions. Not long ago I was on approach on ATC approach. I followed everything and flew past the AP because there were no instructions to turn.
So I flew on and shortly afterwards ATC approach was canceled. So it didn’t do me any good. In the current case today it was similar because I had already passed EGLL 9R for the approach. It looked to me as if there were no more instructions from the approach so I went on the approach. I made another mistake and was disconnected and re-baptized to level 2? It’s fun to fly according to the rules and instructions but then they have to come and leave no doubt that nothing more is coming. I will not renew my subscription. Unfortunately, I’m annoyed and disappointed.
Edit:
I just logged out and uninstalled IF. But one more or less doesn’t really matter… What a shame.
First off if a radar controller disconnects, you should always recheck for other frequencies so you can keep contacting ATC. Approach may be back on, or you should contact Tower.
You should also contact the appeals team if you think something is wrong.
It’s not the end of the world over a violation. It’s not like you were permanently banned from playing Infinite Flight. If I were you, I’d undo all that and just keep playing. If you want to figure out a way to fix the violation, just chat with appeals here on the community.
Hello, I believe I was the controller who had issued you this violation.
Please do PM me in regards to this. I am more than happy to discuss this with you instead on the public forum.
Hi, i was the radar controller, my plan was to give you a reverse intercept vector (060) and clear you for the ILS. Unfortunately you switched to Tower before I could. I req that Tower send you back to me, they tried but you didnt switch back and landed, effectively without any clearance.
Violations are not handed out on a whim but I totally understand the frustration of receiving one. Please contact Appeals and they will take a look. Thanks.
No, it’s not the end of the world. In my opinion, a warning or admonition would have been enough. But I don’t think it’s fair that I’m back at level 2 and now need 100 landings, time and points for level 3. It’s not like I’ve been breaking the rules all the time.
After my experience where people simply stopped contacting me and then logged out, I didn’t realise this. And of course I realise that the rules don’t come about on a whim. But a warning or admonition would have been enough. After all, I didn’t have my account until yesterday.
The Tower controller (I understand) did PFI you when trying to get you back on to my freq. As I say, best to contact appeals and let them review rhe replay
