For those that fly in Elite Dangerous, you’re probably familiar with how some of the players there got around a similar issue. Players who want to dogfight with other players (PVP), and players that wanted to do other things (trading, exploring, mining,etc) and avoid PVP fights. Some users set up a “mobius” group that you could join, and start the game in a “group session” with only players that don’t want to PVP. Sure, occasionally someone in the möbius group would go after one of the other players. You could report anyone doing this and they would be warned or banned from the group.
I wonder if a similar “private group” could be set up in MSFS to allow pilots to fly more realistic activities without dealing with the vatsim issues some people either aren’t ready for, or just don’t want to deal with at the time for whatever reason.
Regards
P.S. last I saw, mobius had something like 16,000 players in the group, so it’s not just small groups.
