Look, I really have no problem with the BK's, or anyone else for that matter, switching sides, whatever the reason was.  The bottom line was that MegaDud shot me down and was on my range 5 mins later to help with FT, to you sir.I flew with Morph and Mega for a while and they were a great help to the Knights.  So, whether the switched for the Knights good or because they had more fun, who cares.  Bottom line is that more Rooks died when they came over, so thanks anyway.

Oldman, they think if you switch you're gathering precious intel that can be sent to the other side to help plot against their map rooms and towns. :D

ROFL  FOMWAG!  That is t3h aw3s0m3.

Anyway, switching sides is an aspect of the game.  HTC rewards the switching of countries to even out the unfair numbers.  I would honestly say that if you are loyal to a certain country, but when you log in you notice that your side outnumbers everyone else by 40 people you could do one of two things:  1) Smile and be happy that you and your buddies are going to roll fields without resistance and it will be an easy night for you.  2) Switch to one of the sides with the lowest numbers and try to stop the infidels with no concern about your personal, virtual well-being.

I would contend that option 2 actually will work to make the game exponentially better.  Seems that is the goal of most people here, or so they say...  So how come it doesn't happen more often?

No sir, we are missionaries.  Squads pay us to change countries and help them win the war.  We get payed huge amounts of money to sell information to the enemy about where the map rooms are located, destroy radar instalations so the NOE lancs cannot be seen:huh and where the VH are hiden.  How do you think we can afford to have all those shade acounts for vulching and scorewhoring?  Trators?  maybe, but I could not afford a Viper till we started this business.

Email Levi for pricing.

I switch almost every night. Log in and see where the fights are and who has the least amount of players on. I also enjoy the spy remarks so that is an added benifit of switching sides.

A "tactic" would usually imply that we do it as a means to an end.  In this case we are only helping the outnumbered teams, we have never done it for any other reason (besides the CV incident)....  What exactly are you referring to when you say this?

My point is, don't pretend that you switched just for them and they should then thank you.

Then again, they shouldn't say anything.

Spies are the worst.  But side switchers aren't exactly spies.  Some people get confused.


I switch when someone is crazy outnumbered, and I do it because I will have more fun, you are correct. I also think its the right thing to do so its both a fun and a personal ethics choice. I dont expect anyone to slap me on the back and tell me what a great guy I am (even though I am) but I sure dont want anyone to whine about it either.

Spies are lame, but so is loyalty to a chess peice in a video game. (hey...that rhymed)
