Then I guess gv kills should be taken off.

that is because when sortied as "bomber" any GV kills don't count. those count as "missed" bombs because they did not hit a structure.

bomber "kills" only count air-air kills

Bombers do get credit for kills when they land. Be it fighters or GVs. To try to post everything they hit would look ugly. Perhaps
"SYSTEM: FiLtH successfully landed 3 kills and had 40% bombing efficiency"

What type of "reward" are you looking for? You get the same as everyone else( player killed X amount of bad guys). As for the toolshed hero bashing, Ack and hub pretty much expressed my feelings. Nothing like a good fight being broken up b/c we gotta capture tha base:rolleyes:

As the saying does, "Fighter pilots make movies, bomber pilots make history" so to recognize their efforts, a I think it's only fitting they do get some type of recognition.

So I propose for those bombers that have shown significant skill  and determination to seek that that undefended base and bomb the vile tool sheds to oblivion should be eligible for a special reward.  It can't be just any special reward either like those system messages those "fighter jocks" get, no, it must be far more than that.  They need their own flag to mount on their planes, to let the others know that "there is an elite bomber pilot in this plane."   A flag they can wave proudly to show that they're "Loud, bombers and here." and I can think of no better flag than this.

This way it will inspire the bombers to achieve greater heights as they keep reaching for that rainbow.

Bring back calibrated bombing and buffs that wont release unless certain speeds, altitudes, and aoa are met and let them have there building bashing rewards..than we will know who toolshedders are and target them..seems fair to me

Might as well be flying an FA-18. Your speed is slower but the bombing accuracy is on par...or better than, guided munitions on single structures.  :rolleyes:
