Thanks Slo, that's really nice of you and the Hornets. I appreciate your compassion, especially considering how whiny my original post is.

I don't like the fact that you don't enjoy this wonderful game we have...thats a shame

my squaddies make it fun for me when I feel the same as you...usually we'll do something stupid like capture a base using only p40's:rofl

I dunno,
I use to be a rook and their are some great guys over there. On the other hand i was just in AH2 lol and every rook i ran into just wanted to HO. Im not complain'n but seems like somethings have changed over there?

Either way, no big deal and S! to those awesome ACM.

Haha SLo P40s are so much fun man!

The other day we were winging in P40s near the dreded A44:eek: For a while it was XJ and myself there in slow P40s! I went to rope a zeek and he climbed right up to me like i was flying in reverse! lol Thank god for luck tho, I managed to get out of that. It was a great flight though, and I broke my record for most kills in that thing with no rearms.

I too lost my sanity tonight. Urchin I think you were there to witness it. Granted I've only been here 18 months or so but I have never seen such poor players on the rook team. With the obvious exceptions, rooks are just plain awful... I'm talking REALLY bad.
They think drag has something to do w/ how they dress on the weekends. They think rope is something they bring on their dates while dressed in drag. They think setup is a blind date that they can tie up with their ropes while dressed in drag.
I'm not talking about noobs. The run of the mill rook just doesn't have a clue about working together......nothing. I remember that, while I believed all sides had some good pilots, rooks were the better bunch overall. IMHO. No more. I am belabouring the point but they are just...... terrible.

3 and the final, examples:

I dragged Bloodnut's F4U past the noses of 4 rooks tonight, 3 of the names I recognized as having been around for a while. Not one of them had the sense to drop on his 6, even after I gave them an angle. To a man, with the exception of one guy, who sort of just wandered off, they all went for the HO, leaving me stuck w/ Bloodnut spraying like mad at 700, as I had started him in a gentle climb to set him.

#2

A rook pony was fighting a nik. Both of these planes were right over me. I was just close enough to worry the nik. The nik reverses down to HO me, leaving a perfect shot opportunity for the high rook pony, my teammate. I watch as the nik slowy goes over the top, a cherry to be plucked from the sky for my high teammate. To my horror, my teammate literally wanders off aimlessly. End result, I'm Ho'd by the nik.

The reason my high teammate meandered off: He was adjusting the gamma setting on his monitor. Forget the gamey tardness of this. He actually decided to do this in the middle of that fight.

Rooks have become so lax at giving check 6's that I don't give them anymore either. In fact, to prevent myself from an old habit, I deleted my check 6 button.

Anyway, since Stang and my muppet friends aren't always on, I'm done w/ rooks. Right now I just don't think I could stand another flight with these idiots without punching my fist thru my monitor.

Well, Steve, don't include me in that gross generalization. I actually enjoy flying around you cause you are such great bait. I know you've roped plenty for me in the past. Keep on setting 'em up if you see me around, it won't be wasted...I promise

Zazen, I like a good setup more than a kill. Somehow it always gets me snickering.
