Empowerment through a tenacious drive for truthfulness and accountability.
We hold…
Morals before Malice.
We started Threshold because we felt that other websites serving the Flight Sim community did not represent our values and ethos or offer enough for both users and developers. We set out to provide a new view of the world of Flight Simulation.
We build…
A place where the experienced can educate and inform
Our content is authored by a diverse range of experienced writers, all of whom have a great depth of knowledge and a different experience with Flight Simulation. We are committed to creating an ideal platform for thinking and discussion.
We believe…
You deserve an impartial view on important subject matters
Our writers think independently, are not tied to any products or developers, and wield criticism only when justifiable. They retrieve information from the source and bring it directly to you. We think that you deserve the facts because we want you to be informed enough to create your own perspective.
Editorial stance
We hope that this small FAQ would answer your concerns regarding the operation of Threshold News, Threshold Store, and Threshold Forum.
A developer putting a product on our store does not mean that it will get a favourable review. While we are committed to ensuring the best quality of journalism possible, we do not intend to market products on the store that we would not buy ourselves.
We believe it would be deceitful to have the same entity manage a store and an editorial in different places. This is why we have elected to keep both under the Threshold brand. This does raise some important questions, and the answers for which are below.
We are convinced that the results of Threshold will speak for themselves. Threshold was created to fill a gap that its founders felt in the overall landscape of Flight Sim editorials, news, stores, and so much more. We are no longer new and unproven but we acknowledge the need to always evolve and improve. Please reach out to us if you have a concern. The only thing we can ask of you is to be patient, trust us the best you can, help us grow, and wish us good luck. Thank you so much for sticking with us.
Any reviews or other publications of products we sell in our store will be marked with a clear disclaimer at the beginning of the article that the product in question is also sold under the Threshold brand. The editorial stands as an independent entity within Threshold and is free to write its own opinion of store products. In fact, the store will be monitoring the editorial opinion on any product and use it as a guide to decide if a product is to be kept in the listings.
Our ultimate goal is to make Threshold the hub of discussion and information, being a major X-Plane news source. With that, our responsibility is to provide honest, unbiased and truthful information to our readers. We respect and celebrate other’s effort to realise their intepretation of the ideal store or news website and we acknowledge their contribution to the Flight Simulation Community.
The trust from you can only be gained through continously keeping within the borders we have drawn of independent commentary and news. We will cover as much as we can – and won’t be selective in our reports. Our reviews have to be fair no matter who sells the product. We won’t welcome developers who can not take constructive criticism in the same fashion that we are willing to accept it. That is the essence of Threshold. We will not bash any product, nor praise any product if it’s not warranted.
