• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Thread/forum title MSFS vs FS2020

SOH-CM-2025
This is another polite appeal (it has been requested before) to Admin to rename this thread/forum to MSFS, rather than FS2020 (which doesn't exist and is misleading) please :encouragement:

I'm mindful of the mantra "Let Being Helpful Be More Important Than Being Right!" (the subheading for The Simulators thread/forum), but there comes a point where using the wrong name becomes detrimental (i.e. unhelpful). Anytime I do a search using the term MSFS I'm now less likely to have hits at SOH, which is a negative for SOH (e.g. fewer users and therefore declining funds). Many of us here have been around long enough to be diehard SOH users, but there are many others who haven't been around for so long (still more who are completely new to flight sim as a genre) who only know MSFS as MSFS and are therefore less likely to ever come across the wonderful place we have here (esp. in the age of Reddit). IMO this is an "unforced error" and an "own goal"... Granted it may be perceived by many as small/tiny issue, but any obstacles to recruitment can only mean a decline for SOH, which I'm sure none of us want to see :encouragement:
 
I agree with Airtrooper, Although a lot of us called it FS2020 or similar early on the more official acronym is MSFS so we should probably adopt it for clarity's sake.
