Well, you also gotta consider that HT positioned the .45 wrong for this kinda thing.  He should know that the weapon should be turned over on it's side - isn't that how the real "Homie's" shoot them?
How we supposed to hit anything with the .45 if it doesn't look "cool" while doing so?

LOL Maybe HT would consider adding a new dot command. ------> .gangsta45angle

Well, unlike the others, I would attempt to answer your question honestly if I kinew it myself.  Was always curious how someone with bad scores in all areas end up having a good overall score.  Seeing the posted replies here is also my basic attitude about the scoring system.  If this is a good representation of the importance/attitude of the score system, we should ask HTC to get rid of it.  I personally think this takes some of the fun out the game if, say, someone is great at tank fighting, and is bad at fighter, he would probably not up fighters very much in worries of porking his(ok, and/or hers) score.  Whereas if the score system is no longer an issue, we might see more people flying fighters that wouldn't have before.

Yeah, I still have some questions about how rank is derived; but, more importantly, what bet did cooley lose that he had to pay up his jet for?

I would still like to see the same statistics that we currently get on the scores page, but with no rank attached at the bottom and scores done away with. Stats are not important to me in the respect that I dont strive to get a certain stat to a certain level, but I find them interesting for some odd reason. Scores I dont see much need for, we all know who is better than each one of us and who is not without looking at stats.

 Pride?  Well, if you do score high, and if it does your pride good..wtg.
Now flip the coin over..  if there are many others like you that get pride from scores, there are an equal amount of people that score bad.  This must hurt their pride.. Im guessing those people get frustrated and leave because of it.  Hence relating to another thread mentioning a gap between skill levels of players.  Dang good pilots against newbs all night.
   I agree with another reply here.  Instead of killing scoring all together, just post percentages etc (not rank) so at least people can have something to judge their individual progress in skill.  Maybe newbs will stick around longer

Well, this is for all you badarses!   STFU!  being sarcastic is funny the first time then you just become a sarcastic dweeb D ck! The guy comes on and asks a question, and all he gets is insulting sarcastic remarks from a bunch of burnouts!  Dmn guys take some pride, swallow it, and answer the man's question.  In reguards to your question sir, there is a glitch that allows a guy who has one or no fighter sorties to be ranked #1 in fighters.  This usually only lasts for 24 hour duration.  This is due to the fact that much of what a pilot is doing to keep rank down is curtailing mistakes.  Hence the system sometimes calculates the lack of sorties with lack of mistakes. It is much more complex than that but that is it in a nutshell.  As far as all these guys trying to make you feel stupid for asking,  just ignore them.  They are either to immature to be polite when it is necessary, or plain and simply *******s!       ;)
