Give me a stuka and a fresh, untouched strat with no enemy fields nearby, I'll give you #1 in bombers (don't even think of asking me to prove that - that's how I did it in my rank whoring days --- ie when I was a newb --- and I don't care to repeat it.) Give me a whole bunch of fields with untouched towns and lots of low sissyfires (like every field in AH) and I'll give you #1 in attack. It isn't hard, it isn't fun, it isn't for me, but I've been there, done that. It doesn't matter what country you're on... 99% of the people on every country suck, so don't try to say otherwise.


LOL ... ahhh ... yes ... the good ole Stuka bomber run and the P-38 or P-47 attack run on undefended out of the way strats.

JFMJ ... a real score potato WILL switch countries when undefended strats and towns are needed to milk, and hordes to be flown with.

Take our word for it ... it's EASY !!!

Harrisburg is a small town we had to give up our english & typing class budgets so we could afford.....hmmm what did they do with all that money.

Where you from bobby you sure seem to know the area?  You aren't that sheep farmer they had on the front page with........nevermind.

You stated yourself you don't like to fly for rank, cause it's no fun, or just not for you, that's fine no prob there.  But why try to take away from someone who show's they can concistently do what you can't, the reason why you can't doesn't really matter you don't, won't, don't want to DOESN'T MATTER, the fact remains that someone else can, will, and is able.  Why try to steal someone elses thunder for an accomplishment.

When someone kills me I take it like a man, if someone talks crap about it I talk it back as much as anyone.  But when Awsomo edges me out for the #1 spot in GV's this month i'll give him a pat on the back, and work on how to get him next month.  Not go to my squadies and talk crap about him or try to make other players in the game dislike him.  Or generally post on this forum negativity about him cause I technically got more kills them him he beat me by blowing up all of the factories, and driving tigers all month etc....  Cause that's lame If I want to beat him then I got to blow up just as many factories, and drive just as many tigers.  And if that side of the game is boring for me then, at no point am I going to start in on him, his abilities, or how GV scores mean squat.  I would respect him for doing something I can't, don't want to, or just flat out don't have the patience to do.

What don't you understand about ... been there ... done that ... got the freakin' T-Shirt ?

Those of us that HAVE DONE IT .. KNOW how easy it is ... and hold no stock in rank ... simple as that. Nothing more, nothing less ... if you choose to idolize those with high ranks ... knock yourself out. Those of us that don't ... well thats our opinion and were stickin' to it ... LOL.

i would wager that this, a fight between friends with nothing to proove, is the best type of DA fight possible.  

a long fight might not only mean poor gunnery, it could simply be the enjoyment of the fight and not taking shots you would against someone else.


its the love of the 1 on 1 fight with someone you have experience fighting, and nothing to argue with about.

I used to work at the D-H, lived in Creswell. Sweet Home's excitement for the year, mud bogs, and taking your cousin to the prom.

Slapshot-if i had your group to fly with I'm sure it would be alot funner when you got a large horde of the top sticks all piled into one squad, switchin countries to find the good brawl of a fight w/numbers slightly in my favor.

by the way I didn't say idolize (refer to 2nd paragraph of my post zazen highlighted 2 posts down), I said I would give them a pat on the back.  Rather than cut them down like a school yard bully.  You don't have to give them a pat on the back any more than you have to go out of your way to cut someone down.

Next time someone wants to post the "did it done been there got the t-shirt" jive, name the tour or don't bother.

Lazer read this thread, you will find to your dismay being excellent in the MA means nothing. Your worth is judged soley by 'the powers that be' by how well you ho-merge co-alt/E Spit5's at 5k in the DA. ;) Yea, I know that doesn't take much gunnery or any SA etc. but it's the judge and jury !!!! ;)

All you flamers, flame away these are my oppinions, but at least they are well thought out oppinions, but please do use comprehensive reading and please read in FULL what I wrote.  So irritating have someone argue something out of context with what I said or trying to imply I said something that was the complete opposite of what I posted.

Just a head's up from bitter experience, most of these 'anti-smart' flying adrenalin freaks only have enough attention span in their A.D.D crippled brains for one paragraph. More than one paragraph and their physical stimulus starved brains shut down and their eyes roll back into their head. The only way to resucitate them is to hold their eyelids open and show them pictures of Spitfires close to the ground while playing metallica tunes REALLY LOUD! :aok

JMFJ:(


Watch what ya wish for ... they are nothing but a bunch of lame-arse kill-stealin' bastages ... ya gotta make 'em explode or forget getting the kill.

Another thing about our squad ... funny ... but none of us are concerned about rank ... if anybody is concerned about rank ... that is one sure way not to get invited into our squad.
