Whats funny is I dont really have an issue with "score" guys...or shawk keasawwa(sp) and the other "advantage" flyers or bomber guys etc (dont agree with em but so what)...what amazed me is that a guy would bother to look up my "score" and then decide how to treat me...that combined with how fast he and his rumpranger buddies boogied from a semi capped field the moment that the bisquits started to try and up...

A group of Knitwits a few days ago asked for my help in attacking a base, they needed someone to fly CAP to cover their bombers.  So I agreed to help them so when I get there, a couple of bogies up and are promptly killed.  So more bogies up and then all the Knitwits that were attacking the field left for greener pastures at an undefended base a couple of sectors away, leaving me to fend off a horde of rather upset bogies.  I made the comment about how funny it was seeing a group of guys run in panic at the first sign of opposition only to be told that I was a n00b and didn't know squat about tactics or strategy.  

Now I use these guys primarily as bait.  And they never took the undefended field.  They spent too much time porking the base that the town would respawn before their goon got there.

You quit 4 times??? what was it that inspired you to comeback? I quit 1 time, and that was because I hated what the game had become. I still haven't heard of a single improvement to gameplay, which is the ONLY thing that could inspire me to come back.

As far as perk points, I guees my point was that they are a small step above useless, as the perk planes are(when I flew) ridiculously fragile. Which IMO, reduces gameplay as well.  But just a small drop in the bucket. I had thousands of perk points as well when I lost the desire to fly AH, I burned em up in a blaze of glory before I deleted my account.
