I was flying from KLAX-KSAN and the atc controller called out my call sign multiple times but I couldn’t access that frequency for some reason I tried but the option was showing up it was the socal approach frequency why is that
also the game crashed while I was attempting to land back at KLAX is there any way to fix that so I can my points I have the recordings
Also is there going to be a weather update introducing snow rain hail thunderstorms any kind of storms and emergency events such as bird strikes

It looks like you are on the training server, this means that ATC are not trained like they would be on the expert server. It seems in this situation the controller was trying to get you to join their frequency from outside their coverage area or distance.

ATC in training servers just spam useless messages to get their operations counted, if you don’t see the ATC don’t bother contacting them unless you are in their airspace and regarding the app crash it’s happening a lot so try not to fly in much crowded airports like KLAX or EGLL you can ofcourse take off from there

You can’t say that, there are many serious TS controllers providing excellent services

I agree, but most of them from my flights from training servers were not so good just spamming useless messages

I wouldn’t necessarily call it “spamming”. Don’t get me wrong, there are some controllers that open on the Training Server just to “troll” and be an annoyance to others. However, there is a large portion that open on the Training Server to gain a better understanding of ATC in Infinite Flight, with some even having the goal of applying for and becoming an IFATC controller in the future.

I myself like to ATC than to fly and i am planning to apply for IFATC in the near future, but i am talking about the trollers who mostly ATC in EGLL or KLAX as those are the only 2 places in training server which are busy airports. I am not trying disrespect any of the serious ATC.

A lot of the time these users that appear to be spamming, are new users therefore new to the ATC interface and may not have an understanding of the commands and their functionalities.
Don’t get me wrong, there are a small handful of users that open EGLL and KLAX just to cause chaos, but in my opinion, a bigger portion just aren’t well educated on the ATC interface at that point in time.

I think it’s partly because IFATC has a minimum requirement of 500 ATC operations for basic ground and tower controller applications for the ES.(at least from their website.) By them spamming u with unnecessary messages, think it’s a way to generate or rack up ATC operations.( only in TS cuz anyone can be an ATC there.)
That’s the only reason, even some serious ATC do this when they get bored
