Your last message is ripe with homoerotic references. You may want to take that shiny silver thing out of your backside, it could be cutting off circulation to your brain.


That would be "autoerotic".  I didn't make any inference to any activity involving more than one inDUHvidual.  And, by the way, the word is spelled "sophisticated", with only one A.

The spelling flame. Last refuge for the lame.

And I don't type too goodly in the morning anyway.

I don't know, I just find it hilarious that somebody who accused someone of a lack of sophistication couldn't even spell the word.  That's called irony.  I immediately thought of Minnie Pearl running around in a nice hat with the price tag hanging off it.

I think we should have 4 barracks at each base.   No one would put all their troops in a bunker that could be straffed flat, killing everyone.   Heck, you'd think they'd go to an air raid shelter and survive the solo fighter suicide attack.

4 Barracks.  Still porkable, but not so ridiculously easy.

A bit over the top, aren't we?  Are you taking this personally?  Perhaps I have pushed one of your buttons?  Maybe you are a bit agitated?

That means I win, by the way.

That's not even close to over the top for me.

That is how it is now :)

Those downtimes are the maximum downtimes with no resupply (i.e. the corresponding resupplv strat dead and city dead same zone).  With fully functional strat and city the downtime is much less (for some reason I am thinking 45 minutes).

People on the bishop team drive scores of M3's and c47's - this reduces downtime quite a bit more.


That being said troops (and fighter hangars too) are too easy for one player in one pass to kill.

Yeh I had seen the downtimes but had assumed that they were the minimum downtimes.

I can't say if I have noticed that with full strats that the downtime has been reduced to as little as 45 mins, taking into account that each full resupply from convoys etc.. reduce downtime by 30 mins.

As a Bish also and member of Dustoff we spend quite a bit of time re-supplying if needed. We will generally re-supply a base that has just been captured so it's usable rather than just running off to find something a little more exciting.  The problem is though you'd be guaranteed that five minutes later some gimp in a 190/typh/lala etc.. will barrel in at +400 on a suicide run.



Troops definately need to be made tougher to pork, hangers just need to be spread around a bit more so you can't take them all out in one pass. Have a look at the change FH placement thread if you haven't already.

Then perhaps you should take a look at having some professional intervention with those issues of yours.

I mean, really.  First you go after people's playing style.  Then you make remarks about some supposed sexual orientation issue.  When that fails, you feel the need to exert some sense of superiority over their BBS posting style.  What's next?  Are we going for poo-poo references?  Are we going to compare pets?  Is your girlfriend prettier than my wife?

If spelling references are the last reference of the lame, surely these recent attack postings are the last refuge of the neurotic.

The psycho-babble is more Intardnet 101 flame tactics. Lord that stuff is tired. Folks have been dragging the same lame techniques across the ether now for almost 30 damn years.

Sadly, you probably think you're being clever - oblivious to the fact that you have no skills, style, or wit.

I love the way you use those same "intardnet" flame styles to completely ignore the substance of my posts.  It shows a complete lack of validity in your argument.  Remember, if you can't win on substance, go after the person!  Right out of the liberal playbook!

Now I'm beginning to think you're a closet commie, too.

DoK, Shubie, do us a favour will you and pack it in.  This "you are!" "no I'm not you are!" argument is getting stale.

The restraining order said "No"

His eyes said "Yes"
