== Community ==

Another big part of Infinite Flight is their community, which can be found [https://community.infiniteflight.com/ here.]
Their community hasn't always had the best history, as many users have been bullied, suspended, and not cared about throughout the community. It has been said that many developers and mods don't care about their community, which is mostly true. Infinite Flight really just wants your money and doesn't care about you in any way. The careless mods are just a way to describe the Infinite Flight Community, which all in all, used to be a good place a few years ago.
