Respect is treating people the way you yourself would like to be treated and accepting the differences without trying to impose your will on them.

You can be the best pilot in the game but if you don't respect yourself or others, no one really gives a damn how good you are.

Only explanation can be that he is leading our newbies by example. I'm wondering by what criteria this player was allowed to become a trainer in the first place.

I'm comptemplating spending an entire tour just sitting 20k above friendly bases with furballs nearby and picking the fun police when they show up to battle the hangers. All this bull**** about respecting other groups enjoyment just doesn't stand up when they get their enjoyment by spoiling yours.

Hmmm....

I'll have to think on that for a while.

I used to do that allot... problem is it's no fun between the bomber gunner [Dr Evil Voice]Lazuuurrz[/Dr Evil Voice] and switching tactics to suicide-horde-building-battling-dive-kamikazee-dork-lawn-darting.

Easier to up something fast with lots of range and fuel and hang out in unsuspecting routes of ingressl.

rolling planeset.....


i totaly agree, as well as country specific sides, tho i doubt this will ever meet ma since its manly a relaxed do as you please waiting area in between sea events and CT, tho its different for everyone and unfortunately there are alot of ppl who just want a game where they can come home and escape from the wife by shooting planes. Cant say i disagree with that, but i would like some realism and i guess realism just isnt populare these days.

I agree with eilif. ^

The central problem is that the fuel pork/hangar killing horders represent the vast majority. Asking HTC to create the conditions whereby *your* style of gameplay triumphs over *theirs* is like asking HTC to get rid of 90% of their customers. RPS? I enjoyed that in WB, even though it meant I sucked in TNB planes in the first few days, and my favourite ride (F6F) was missing for half the tour. After the ENY whining I saw on this board last August, and the fact that so many players naturally choose from a tiny subset of the available aircraft - the ones in which they think they can "win", there is no doubt in my mind that HTC would not risk pissing off the huge swathe of mediocrity in the AH populace. For that reason, RPS will never happen.

The time and will to train them to do what?

He has advocated bailing out at the edge of icon range in order to avoid "giving away a kill".

He is now conducting himself in the way I would chastise my 7 year old for behaving.

He has yet to add anything constructive to this discussion, all he is doing is calling other folks names.

He is an advocate of pork-and-auger tactics since it allows you to return and kill the next toolshed even faster since you don't have to RTB for more ordinance.

He has suggested that the quickest way to disrupt the furball (those horrible things that so many players enjoy engaging in) is to kill the FHs thereby denting those players access to the very part of the game they enjoy.

While I appreciate his apparent willingness to help and train new members I simply have to wonder exactly what kind of new player we are getting out of his sessions.
