I'll finish this with a comment.
Try thinking about everyones enjoyment NUKE and not just your own.

Good luck.

Thats nearly pointless since the limiter is based on instantaneous ratios instead of over time.  You just make folks switch back and forth endlessly just to chase a plane?  What point, beyond breaking up friends, does this really serve?

YAWN

[MaddogJoe]

ya know, if enough of these "cry babies" stop whining about the ENY thing and really leave..... the ENY thing will never come into effect for anyone

NUKE, you're being a salamander.

You think that your $14.95 entitles you to fly the plane of your choice unconditionally. It does not.  Your subscription entitles you to access the HTC arenas, according to the terms of service agreed when you signed up. In the terms of service, where does it say that HTC guarantees to provide you with a P51, wherever and whenever you want one?

You think your $14.95 subscription is the only one that counts? Let me tell you something. You're not the only subscriber paying $14.95.  Those poor guys trying to up from a steamrolled base have paid their $14.95 too. That ENY limiter is designed to give those guys a chance, instead of being vulched/steamrolled by guys like YOU in P51/LA7.

Claiming that the fact you have paid to play entitles you to do whatever you like in the arena is a nonsense. Imagine if I were to go down to the local Chess club, and tell the club secretary that I wanted all my pawns to count as queens whenever I played. The club would probably tell me to piss off...

...which is what you should do, out of this thread.

If they stop being your friends because you switched sides when they wouldn't ....

And how's it pointless when you get your ride back? Or are you alluding that numbers shift hourly, now? If so ... well good!

you mean they are forced to stay in their country? I wasn't aware of that, poor guys.

And I never said I was entitled to special treatment. I suggested that when one country has too many numbers, ALL countries lose the planes until the numbers balance. That sounds fair to me.

[SlapShot]

One should be able to switch to the country that has the LEAST amount of players instantly ... no time limit should be imposed.

Now if one wants to switch back to a country that enjoys greater numbers than the one that they are currently in, then they must wait the 6 hour period.

All in all, I cannot believe the amount of "foot stamping", "lie on the floor kickin' and screamin'" temper tantrums that have evolved within the past 2 weeks.

To me, it's imcomprehensible that adults can, and do carry on like this. Just goes to show you what some people are really made of ... shocking to say the least.

nuke... Am I reading you right?  you are mad because you can't fly the best plane while in the country with the largest overpowering numbers?

you can still fly the 51 or still fly with the overpowering number... just not both at the same time now.   How is this "unfair" to you?

Oh, well they could change up a gear by joining the steamrolling side, but Kev367th has you covered on that one when he said

Under your idea NUKE, everyone would end up on one side. Lets all switch to the high numbered country then just flying around admiring the view.

Is that scenario better than the current ENY balancing? Erm, no...

It is immpossible to predict what the numbers balance will be hour to hour on most any side other than saying the side with the highest total numbers will tend to be higher more often.   I fly with lots of folks and enjoy their company.  If I go jumping around randomly to chase various planes then I'm deprived of that option which is 90 percent of why I fly.  IMO , it is foolhardy to regulate the moment to moment numbers in the MA since it has little bearing on gameplay and there are much better ways of evening things out.

Lazs, it's not that I'm mad about not being able to fly a Pony in a country with numbers, it's the whole concept of punishment and coerced country balancing. I couldn't care less about numbers.

When I play, I fly alone about 95% of the time and I pick out spots on the map with no "hoard". I am often at a disadvantage where I choose to fly.

And I answered that this has never happened on the history of the game.
