The diferrences were never in the hundreds. yes maybe 1 hundred during the old RJO's on sundays. But Not on a daily basis. Our squad has rotated through all the countries and Rooks are always Outnumbered. 50 or 30 isnt bad? it is when you only have 70 pilots going up against combined forces of upwards of 220 enemy pilots going for a reset.

I personally dont mind flying on a side with less numbers. Actually makes a better pilot of you since you are constantly fighting 3 or 4 guys. But to say that the numbers are even is laughable.

220 - 70 = 150
These two statements contradict each other.

Honestly, before the ENY limiter the numbers imbalance was an issue.  Are numbers and issue now?

when did 150 become hundreds notice the plural S on the end.... that indicates over 200+ unless you specify that it does not.

I see what you are saying now though but the way you said it is misleading and seemed to be exaggeration.

Enough already.

LOL ... your kidding right ?

If the Knights had had the power that the Rooks posessed when the ENY discussion came up, your statement would have read ...

-----------------------

ENY has been a tremendous success. Since its implementation, for the most part, the arena has been pretty much balanced, hence ENY has no effect. Yes there have been times when it got out of balance and ENY kicks in, but no where near what some are trying to portray here.

Knights got wacked with ENY last Knight. Our squad wanted to make a Tempest run but was unable to do so ... they weren't available.

So ... we all met at A44 and jumped up and down, stamped our feet, screamed, yelled, cried, whined, fell to the floor pounding our feet and hands, held our breath and ... nothing changed ... so we grabbed what was available and still kicked ass. All that angst for nothing.

Some people need to get a grip and move on.

Bah ... you were the worst (outside of Levi) ... the screaming and nashing of teeth was like something I have never witnessed before.

Perception is subjective, however reality is not.  He is entitled to whatever perceptions he may want to have, including believing he is always outnumbered 3 and 4 to 1.   He probably flys with a tin foil hat on his head too, but until it effects the price of beer - who cares?

Yeah rgr raider, I was speaking in context understanding we all know that it wasn't 300 vs 50.  But you get what I am saying and that is good enough for me.

You strat guys want everything to be easy.  Make it easy to stop the fight by letting me pork all the fuel at a base with one P51 and make it take 10 trips to resupply 25%.

Please line up all the hangers so we can stop the fighting in one drop from one box of bombers, God forbid I have to line up more than once.

You guys whine about it being to hard to do this or to hard to do that.  Furballers whine about there not being any fights.  There is a big difference.

Then guys like you try to make some absurd idea stick as if we dont want bombers or strat players.  That is not the case.  Do we want intelligent bombers and tool shedders?  Yes.  Ones that can enter an area read the situation and do what is needed?  Yes.  Do we want stratters that just see a fight then think they have to stop that fight at all costs, FK NO.  

When I go to a field hoping for a furball and notice that it is really concerted base capture effort, I help the base capture.  I don't try to stop the base capture.  When stratters come to a field and see a furball they stop the furball.  They could go take some other base and let the furballers be, but no they have to come in and fk it up.  That is where the problems lie.  That is where this game sucks the most.


Marsie, sit down.  Are you sitting?  'Cause I don't want you to faint and fall down and split your head open on the corner of a table or something when I say this.

Are you ready?  OK.




The game is not all about you, or me, or any one other person.  Are you sure you're sitting down?

Neither you nor I have any material effect on the overall game.  In other words, our individual feelings/needs/thoughts/desires are not impacting the game in any meaningful way.  And to be honest, I probably care less about your fun than you care about mine.  

The only reason we even have these little talks is because of your CONSTANT WHINING about how your fun is being ruined by all those other kiddies in the sandbox that keep taking your sand away and playing with your bucket.

Every time I log on to this BBS there is a new post by one of you children about how you're being victimized by the mean old people who break your toys, and somehow have an advantage over you in numbers or ordnance or ease of killing your stuff or some other BS reason.

Are you still sitting down?

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OWN OUTCOMES.  If somebody does something to you, do something back.  But don't whine about how the game is "ruined" or "there aren't any skilled players" or "it's all beneath my ability level" or "it's boring".  Get a pair, man.  

You don't like what I do?  Stop me.  I can be shot down.  My bases are as vulnerable as yours.  Last night you should have learned that missions (no, we're not a horde, we are acually organized) can be stopped in their tracks.  Your friends did it.

I don't whine about how "hard" it is to take a base.  I revel in the challenge, and think of new ways to overcome the difficulties.  In fact, I agree that the simple mode bombing and aligned hangars are not challenging enough.   Very few Strat players complain about the strat--they complain about YOU and your playmates trying to change the conditions to suit you.  Again, grow a pair.  Learn to overcome difficulties, and win against the odds.

Shubie you have no clue nor do I think you will get one.  You probably believe the crap you post.  I steer away from morons like you in real life cause you cant shine or reason with cheese and life is too short, so I plan on avoiding you like the plague.  Your a moron and that is that.  That is the last word I have to post to you, so save your dribble for those that buy it.

Beet I apologize for ever comparing you to this Ahole, because honestly you are a decent guy.

That's right, marsie.  Always point to the other guy.  That way you can feel better about yourself.  And I guess you need it.
