Sky Connect Alliance looking for expansion

Dear CEO,

We are the Sky Connect Alliance! We are an English speaking and active Alliance in which we openly communicate about strategies, seating, fleet development etcetera. We are straight forward and honest to each other with the goal to build not only a strong Alliance but also to maximize the output of each individual airline.

At this time we are looking for expansion in the following regions:

Africa

Asia

Oceania

Europe (esp. Russia/Turkey)

If the above interests you then you can apply to our Alliance of course. However, to maintain a certain level of quality we ask you only to apply if you meet the requirements below.

- At least 2 weeks active

  • Have an AAA rating

  • Have a clear and firm long term strategy

  • Participate actively at the discussions board(!)

  • Willing to be transparent

Does the above not scared you off? Then we are looking forward to your application! If you do so don’t forget to tell us in a few sentences why you would be an asset to our Alliance! YOu can do so by reacting here on the forum if the 250 words in the application form is to short for you.

Kind regards,

Sky Connect Alliance

You have actually taken up the name of the alliance I started, do you know that?

No idea where you are talking about, this alliance is around for a month now?

It was me who first created Sky Connect alliance in Aspern. We brought it to Airlinesim as some players who are also playing in Airwaysim in Sky Connect alliance. But some of our stronger members preferred to use an oder AS alliance name, so we cancelled Sky Connect and created different alliance. Sky Connect is a cross-platform alliance active in several airline simulation sites, which even has its own website and domain name. You basically hijacked our alliance name. So that is what I am talking about.

Sorry, totaly not seeing your point here? The name was available on Aspern, so we used it. You don't have claim on the name as far as we know. And if the AS team is of opinion that we need to change the name, we will here from them I guess.

I just pointed out that you appropriated an established alliance name used for years on different airline simulation systems.

And I just pointed out to you that we have no knowledge of this and just came up with the name (brainstorming). What is your problem?

I don’t have any problem besides the fact that you used an a) established virtual alliance name widely recognized on the Internet; and b ) the name I set up on Aspern.

Hi Guys,

Without been funny I think the big issue with this is the word VIRTUAL. I'm guessing Sky Connect is not used as a REAL name, and I'm guessing it is not copyrighted in any shape or form. Also with point b ) "the name i set up on aspern" but you also said previously "so we cancelled Sky Connect". Therefore the name is free for anyone to use.

If you have a genuine complaint have you reported it?

Ian

Ian, I do not have an actual "complaint" ... I wrote to this Player my message above, just informing him on the facts of the name, and he started saying if I have a problem etc...what only was needed was for him to admit that yes they took the name ...and everything would be OK. The key word is "admit" ... instead he goes on and on rambling that this and that that,

They did not "take" it though, since they never knew of its existance beforehand (neither did I).

Ian, I do not have an actual "complaint" ... 

Not trying to throw gas on the fire here, but the way you posted made it seem you had a definite complaint. I mean, you used the word "hijacked", in bold, in reference to an airline game.

You are right, hijacked was nto a correct word, maybe a too strong... "appropriated" is much more accurate

Alright then ;-)

We took the name, but it's free for anyone to use! The alliance didn't exist in Aspern so why should we have to admit? 

We just took it random, not knowing it also is an alliance in the other game worlds...

Don't see the point here...
