Why do strat players seem so threatened by furballers?

[Stang]

In every thread about the two camps, this is the common theme I have observed.  

I'd like to hear from the strat guys, and please, lets keep it civil, at least for the first couple posts  

Discuss...

I don't think it's threatened so much as frustrated. I'm basically a furballer, and the theme I seem to get on the text buffer is any furball in any location is not supporting the "strategic" objective of land-grab.

I always figure that any enemy I tie up in a furball is one who is not defending against the base capture so I don't worry too much about it... I will make the offer to fly anywhere that anybody who will pay my monthly bill would like me to!

well maybe with all the furballers landing kills and gettng "wtg's" and faux 's and stuff, the strat guys feel their mad building battling skillz are being overlooked?

has it been a couple yet?

It is kind of funny. The whole strat system including base capture etc is only for generating furballs.

Maybe strat guys need some credit messages.

Like :-

HOST: Milkrunner has killed 22 toolsheds, 3 nissen huts, a house and an ack gun

so they can all eachother and bask in their greatness?

Maybe strat players get tired of something like bozos placing CVs 3 miles in front of an enemy base for sake of a furball, when in reality placing a CV there is the best and fastest way to kill the furball itself. CV based planes are quickly overmatched by land based planes, and soon the CV is gonna die. This kind of stupidity is usually inherent in furballers.

 So, strat players aren't really threatened by anything. Its usually the strat players who reach out and pull out the furballers from the pile of shi* they've gotten themselves into.

 Its no wonder the strat players get cranky - wiping furballer prettythang is usually a very thankless job.

Seems the other way around to me.

But then what do I know.

Oh now that's funny. Seems to me not to long ago, the furballers complained about the strat killers took all their precious fuel away. Who was threatened by who?
I consider myself neither, I just do what I think needs to be done at the time. If troops need to be taken out, I'll go do that. If a sector needs to be swept out, I'll do that.

Disagree...there cant be a furball when a steady stream of bomber forms keeps the hangers dead.

Here's a good one I heard on Ndisles not to long ago. Some guy says on range vox that the best way to keep the cv alive is to kill the BH's and FH's  I tryed to tell him that killing the ammo bunkers took far less ordinance and had a longer lasting effect and that they also needed to kill the shore batteries and the VH to keep tanks from lining up on the shore and firing at the cv, but he was adamant that it was the BH's and FH's that needed to die.

Not long after our conversation Tiger tanks and a shore battery combined there efforts and sank our cv. (all aircraft hangers were down at the time of the sinking)

I play both ways depending on my mood. One thing that is obvious is you look: hardcore furballers are lone-wolf players who rarely if ever really get involved in teamwork; the strat players tend to prefer playing as a team.
As for who is threatened by whom: I've always thought it was the furballers who feel the most threatened. They seem to always be the ones starting the furballer/strat player conflict threads. Personally I think the extreme players on both sides of the equation are on the fringes of the game and are maintaining equally ridiculous positions.
Children, please! It's just a game.

Help me out here... the strat players save the furballers by destroying the ability to furball?

Or what are you trying to say?
