Instead HTC selected players that are incompetent or perhaps even dishonest or in some instances just aren't around enough to be of much help to the arena.


Well why dont you take over the whoopee thing then? Then you can make up for the great injustice done to whatshisface.

I do believe the gloves are now off.  I suspected it for a while but now its reality.

whatsisface received an overwhelming amount of support from the players.  It was just plain wrong on the part of HTC to dump on him like that.  The result is his whole squad is gone, maybe even from the game who knows, I ain't seen any of them.  Have you?

Storch in a few weeks I am coming to Miami for some business. A little while before that you and I need to get together and set a time to go grab a few ice cold beers and single malt scotch on the rocks. I will talk to you about it then since I was the "CT Chairperson" during the election time.

For now lets give this whole thing a rest since you guys need to quit focusing on the past. The start moving forward to make sure the great arena wrecking ball won't smash the few years hard work by you the players and the staffer/players as well.

Seems to me that it was more than just planes being porked.  During my course of CT experience it seemed to me the comradarie declined into something ugly.  Can't put my finger on exactly when where or who but it went from cordial 's to middle fingers flying.  I don't know.  Doesn't really matter now does it.

Part of the lack of appeal for me is this.  It's 2130 EST, pretty near primetime for the CT and we are still with that very popular PAC set up.  If the staffers would change those maps in a timely manner (0000 every Friday) it would go a long way for me.

Secondly return the Japanese planeset to it's previous performance parameters. whether or not some of the allied players believe this is now the "correct" modelling (little wonder) it clearly is having a detrimental affect on the game.  The A6Ms are now hanger queens in the CT and in the MA.  Couple that with the incorrect modelling on all the Axis weapons and you have a game that will surely suffer.

Then we can discuss HTC's outright rejection of TheBug's election to the CT staff because of personality issues.  That was a critical mistake that flew in the face of the CT players.  Instead HTC selected players that are incompetent or perhaps even dishonest or in some instances just aren't around enough to be of much help to the arena.

Perhaps HTC would send TheBug an apology for their short sighted decision and install him on the CT staff?  

Then again we may sooner see bananas growing wild in the arctic.  

:D

I agree they should have gone with the people WE voted for regardless, but to lump all CM's into that catagory ain't right. Some of the ones we did vote for aren't doing their job, but there are some that are trying.

Need some help Slash? I'm online almost every night, other than shooting down HiTech the other day I don't think anyone really hates me. I've got lots of computer background, I doubt there is anything in the CM handbag that will stump me. Make me a CM and I'll do setups each week that will keep the player base happy.

"Try? There is no try.  There is do, or do not."  Master Yoda

If it's a trying task and any of the volunteers aren't up to it then vacate and allow others a chance.  I for one believe TheBug would have stepped up to the plate and delivered as advertised.

VWE just volunteered,  why not give him memnon's place?
