No. I read your post and decided you are still a noob. People created the term 'pick' for the reasons I described. Most of them come form the DA and bring the DA mentality to the war arena thinking everyone will agree with them. They have taken over the General Forum and anyone posting anything contrary to their DA views are immediately attacked in an attempt to silence and different views.
When you grow up and finally molt out of the DA mentality you may discover that the game has many different aspects and all of them can be fun. But it's your money to toss away to mindless-endless furballing if you want. I cannot see the logic in repeated long trips ending in death but if that's your cup of tea why would I even try to stop you?
Some people never do change because they do not care to learn. I think that's you.
So you say the game has lots of aspects all of them which can be fun, implying people can pursue their own activities and philosophies with mutual respect but your immediate response to me laughing at your flap comment is to go and look up my score?
No, players invented the derogatory term 'pick' to accurately describe that it involves less skill than actually earning your kill through ACM. In my experience all of the picker specialists have realised they can't do the ACM to a high level so do this instead. You can
try to equate it all you like, but I'm never going to agree that picking is anywhere near on the same skill or merit level as ACM-based fighting and I don't think you will find many who are willing to agree with you either.
Your implication that I am somehow less evolved than you is rather unsophisticated and implies a natural linear progression which I do not see. If you really want to know, and I suspect not because we have irreconcilable philosophies and you more likely just want to devalue me and hence the value of my opinion, I'm actually less and less interested in any notion of 'surviving' or 'dying'. I just have my fun dogfighting in an air combat game. To be honest, that you take 'dying' and the 'War Arena' so seriously seems rather weird to me.
I reiterate my point, if everyone flew around at high energy states in super fast planes then you'd be out of business. Picking depends on other people engaging in dogfights in order to succeed.
