That's a common misunderstanding that the furballers often make. Teamwork for me is what you said later on in your post: Helping your friends, and communicating. As Colonel F. Gabreski once said, "a lone fighter is a sitting duck". So it makes no sense NOT to save your friends or help with 6-calls etc. because all your friends will die and then YOU will become that sitting duck. But some guys are so consumed with massaging their own egos that they just can't be arsed. When I see a lack of 6-calls, no responses to voxx comms, no communication of any kind, no help to get a bogie off mine or anyone else's 6, I don't whine about it on the BBS, as these whines fall on stony ground. I simply land at the earliest opportunity, and move to another part of the map. Or, in really bad cases, log off.

Heres another definition:

To crush your enemies, to see him driven before you, to fly his aircraft and to take his sheep for your own.

Winning to me is to have a long  good fight, regardless of the outcome.

communities where someone knows who I am , and cares about me, and at a later stage  meet virtual friends in real life.

To have friends make you rich regardless what your paycheck is.

Winning is when you upset an opponent so badly that he becomes fixated on killing you to the point that he forgets to fly with his head, and starts to fly with his feelings...

... and he dies anyway.
