An considered analysis of AH. By an Ultra Dweeb.

kamel, ispar:

Every BBS community has it's village idiots, and Akdejavu fills the job nicely here at AH (Ram fills in on his days off).  
Kamel, if you fly WBs, you know AGW has it's share of these types, but that wouldn't stop me flying WBs if I chose to do so.
To slam AH because of one individual's idiocy, isn't being fair to the majority, who share your disdain for these types.

On both this board and the arena.. it never ceases to amaze me how many people love to jump on the 6 of a wounded plane.. no matter how many others are already there.  Yeah.. its me that is ruining things.

I wonder how many village idiots actually believe it to be someone else in the village.

Let me ask you this question Bowser... what if RAM had written this post?  How do you know he didn't?  Would it matter that it was him?

You know, I didn't say you were an amazinhunk AK. I did say that your attitude defies a better description at this time. I'm sorry to have said what I did. I really am not adding anything more to this topic, but the this discussion disgusts me. If indeed buzz is being dishonest, it won't affect anything, either the game or you personally. I personally think that your approach to buzz was groundlessly accusatory and abysmally disrespectful. No matter our opinions, we all really should have shut the hell up before this topic degenerated into name calling and accusatory state it is in.

Oh... if anyone wants the last word, go ahead. I'm not going to try to refute anything. It would really be a lot better if this topic were just to die, wouldn't it?

I think it is abysmally disrespectful to the entire community to come in and do any of these things:

1. Create misconceptions about your identity for the sake of supporting your argument.
2. Suggest changes be made to things without actually trying them.

This individual did one of the two above.  That's a given.

I've never respected anyone who's lied in the first sentance of his first post.

I would liken it to a manouever kill, we didn't have to do anything, you flew yourself into the ground.

I promise...that's it from me also.

Methinks AK's recent posts are a perfect example of the aphorism, "There are no defensive moves, only increasingly desperate offensive ones".  

Finished with the insults now AK?  BTW congrats WRT Kamel.  A good flier, a member of one of the largest squads in WB.  You done real good AK.

Of course.. this is more accurate than I'd like to admit.  But then.. it doesn't stop you from getting that last kick in does it?

Actually.. its AKDejaVu.  My view is mine and mine alone.  I haven't seen anyone else from the AKs chime in here to make it an official stanse.

As for Kamel.. well.. I'm sorry that he is so light-skinned as to believe that one person dictates the entire course of actions for a community.  I really wonder who are the "too many amazinhunks like me" he was reffering too?

Gotta say.. that was just a bit too contrived.

Buzzbait, your observations are the same as those that most of us have when they first start AH . And I agree with them, sadly AH is full of Akdejavus .

[Nath-BDP]

Woah, I had no idea I was being spoken about behind me back, I never bothered to read this thread, but I was bored so I thought I'd look it over. I see people are still obsessed with 'uncovering' my identity--how flattering. I would have never thought I'd be this important to someone over the net, but for people like DejaVu, who, this may be harsh--suck at Aces High and come here to try and gain some attention they couldn't possibly obtain through being good at the game. Keep up the worship Deja, I loath in it.

You should know if I were to make another handle I certainly wouldn't use such a
tastless one such as 'BuzzBait'. You ought to know better than that, sonny.

Animal... you still have a problem with me? I thought you were the better person by not talking about someone behind their back, but now you're just the same as deja.

This will do it for me on this one... so those that want to get the last kicks in will be kicking a lifeless corpse.. but don't let that stop you.

 

 

Newbies coming to this game, forum and community...

You are all welcome participants.  If any of you have asked questions on-line or otherwise (and I've seen it) I've answered your questions each and every time.  As a rule, in the MA there is a race to handle most questions.  3 or 4 replies each time.

When you do come here, you are amongst people that have hundreds to thousands of hours of stick time on this game.  Guess what.. that is in combination with many other flight sims.  One of the funniest (and most common) things we hear from newbies is "I'll get it.. I have x years of flight sim experience".  A large majority of the players here have that kind of experience.  A large majority have more experience than that.

There is no need to try to dazzle us with your insightfulness.  There is no need to prove your aircraft performance knowledge whenever possible.  There is no need to try to impress us with your flight time in sims.  Simply participate.  No need to take control here or in the arena.  No need to scream "DO WHAT I SAY" when flying.  No need to come in here and give a full-blown game evaluation based on things you haven't really tried yet.

You'll find the community extremely receptive to those that aren't trying to force themselves in.  You'll find the majority of the people both here and on-line are good people that love the game and are more than willing to help you out... providing you aren't forcing yourself on them.  Basically, be nice and the sentiment will bee returned in spades.

Does the game have problems?  Yes it does.  Are these problems that you are going to come in here and solve in your first week?  No they aren't.  Ease in.. go slow.. enjoy the ride.

Some good points.
Perhaps some will be looked at more closely by HT.

To me it is irrelevant whether Buzz is who he says he is, or that he has only summed up points others has made. My only interest was what he had to say. If you are like AK, and can't seem to get around it..please build a bridge and get over it.

akdeja... you are welcome to post in any thread i am involved in.... you seem to divert a lot of fire.   In that spirit.... you would make a great wingman for me.

Look, If the guy is a "two week wonder" then he is misrepresenting himself as he later shows... If, as he says, he has lurked for a long time on the board then, his "observations" are not really observations so much as, at best, parroting and distilling what he has read or... at worst, pontificating.   Harmless enough in any case.  I will go further and say that in "two weeks" he has not, can not have, seen the kinds of things he claims to have observed like B17 wing problems and niki and hog energy retention problems.  especially to the detail and exaggerated extent he claims.

I don't care who he is.   I don't care who anyone is but it is interesting to find that I have played in other sims with someone who now has a different handle.   I think changing your handle in the middle of a sim (a la ram) because you have made such a complete fool of yourself is.... womanly.  I think I probly have a right to speak in this regard?  I think "leaving forever" in a huff posts are the funniest posts on these boards.  I think worrying about your score or anyone elses is laughable since you have no idea what that person is trying to do.

Oh, kamel is not a shy man.   For instance, he has never had any problem standing up to mean ol lazs... I don't think akdeja scarred him off.  If he isn't playing he has his own reasons.

And at the risk of being a hypocrite... pontificating pisses me off.

S! Buzz. Thks for your post. Really lack of constructive non-whining posts around here lately. Besides that, It was enlightening about some of the characters around here.

I am of the opinion that a vast majority of players are not so rude and ill mannered.

Pepe.

P.S.: (Just to return to the scheduled CHog whineing season   pzvg ) DEATH TO QUAKEGIRLS!

I'm all for realism but wonder how many would stay around if any of the following were modeled 100%

1. Torque factor of Corsairs
2. Stall/Spin characteristics of 190's
3. Landing instability of 109's

Any of these factors are well documented as being features which regularly killed many pilots during WWII and yet almost everybone in here is able to pretty much handle any of these after an hour or so.  Let's not fool ourselves, this is a game and there a limits as to the realism due I suppose by the desire to keep it commercially viable.  If they make it so that the minute you apply power in a corsair the sucka kills you the only people able to handle flying in here will be real world pilots with lots of complex airplane experience.
