Yup, my feelings too. I'm no ace, but I at least try to out up a good fight.
They are forced to be timid to achieve their "rank" because they lack the ability to put up a good fight.
However, not all who rank high are what I would call score potatos. Some are just damn good sticks who do everything well, and consequently they have a high rank. You will not see these pilots zooming down the runway in a dorka or la7 on repeated 500mph passes looking for vulches. You will see the timid score potatos doing this all the time though, then crying to mommy for help on vox if someone manages to give chase.
