I want my 200 perk points back!

I was in a 262 diving at about 500 when an LA7 climbed right up in front of me, missed me. Then he did an instant turn and out ran my 262 at 500! Shot me down in a dive and he passed me. This all happened in about 5-10secs.

The SOB was someone name FWRY, or FRWY.

I do NOT pay HT for this kind of crap. I want my 200 points back., or my account reset.

IMO using "Did you film it?" is a poor excuse to give someone.

You can not tell me EVERYONE wants to or is willing to fill their
HDs with flt films and then take the time to delete them. I am sure
I am like the majority of the players and only film stuff I think is
good. Usually by the time something strange happens it's too
late to film. Then, of course, when you talk about it on Ch 1
you're asked  "Did you film it? No? then you can't complain."

There has got to be a log or something HT can check to see
if something was/is amiss.

Have you considered the fact that maybe that la7 pilot was a better pilot than you? You can't say that you wasn't do anything but flying along going 500 mph when all of a sudden that la7 whips around and shoots you. For all we know, you was tryin' to turnfight him and lost.

So, without film tough luck. Fly an la5.

It sounds like the La7 dove from above and behind you at very high speed, overshot under and then out in front of you in the process of pulling a loop to get onto your six.  This means he was going faster than you to begin with and then bled enough speed in his loop to match speeds with you, after which he killed you easily.

Wait, let me guess that you're going to say that it didn't happen that way.  Well, then show us the film.  Otherwise we're just going to have to assume that you blew it against a better pilot and are merely venting on the forums without proof to the contrary.

Had a similar experience, I was in a mossie other guy was in 262.  He swore up and down I was cheating yadda yadda.  He figured I going a lot faster than I should have when in fact all I did was turn inside his circle.

There been a few other times, Once even  when I was in a ZEEK and other guy was in a 163.  Same sort of thing, guy said he was filming gonna report it etc. etc. etc.  (course he never did once he watched the film himself)

Sometimes you *think* you understand what is going on outside the cockpit, but you really don't.

Spot on, Levi. I would guess that way too.

 In numerous occasions, in the times I fly H2H games I would sometimes see people accusing me of a 'cheat'. So I ask them 'just what exactly do you think happened, that you accuse me of being so'

 They describe the details of the engagement on their own accord - which, from my point of view, is about 99% bullshi*, where they leave out the zillion mistakes they made, zillion possibilities and zillion oversights. If everybody flies in the way the 'cheater accusers' describes themselves, nobody would be ever shot down - I mean, when nobody makes any important and fatal mistakes, how does anyone ever get shot down?

 Not to mention elaborate and comfortable exaggerations in relative E states, speeds, positions and etc.. in those rare cases where a film actually exists, people go over it and easily discover that a lot of the claims are exagerated as can be. Most usually we can assume that when a certain 'cheat account' is described, the person being shot down is actually slower than he claims to have been, the person that shot him down is actually faster than he is claimed to be, and the situation is most certainly not as claimed to be.

 So, if there's no film, it's bunk.

I was in the arena when this happened, and I dare say that it was right around the time you were whining, complaining, moaning and groaning about every aspect of the game that didn't go your way.

I remember telling you to quit bellyaching and play the game.

Shame you didn't take my advice, looks like you got your butt shot out from under you.

And BTW, If this is the Frwy I've known since early AW, formed and ran multiple scenarios with, your lucky he didn't shoot you Twice in that same flight.  He normally kills the dweebs after they fall out of the plane.

 A cheater AND a chute shooter?!  I'm not sure which is worse.  This horrible bastard should be banned for sure!  Now, come with me Mad0Max...we'll take a nice quiet walk on the beach to calm you down.

C'mon guys.. tell him the truth.

There's almost no doubt that the dreaded GEOMETRY CHEAT[/color] was used on his poor defenseless 262.

Oh yeah, the Geometry Cheat.

It's out there. It's very deadly.


and not that many know the secrets of the guild anymore.

Good luck. Try potions and incantations; some say that helps.
