Pooface:
"yeah, only new guys really think rank is an indicator of pilot skill, the whole score thing does annoy me, maybe it would be better to just have player stats on the score page, instead of an actual rrank, saying that you are 1583rd most skilled in the game"

That is fine and dandy, but what is "who's" definition of skilled?

Someone that spends countless hours in whatever fighter cherry picking and vulching then running home is in terms "skilled"  ?  

I don't know

Woha, the "You MUST Play My Style" party is getting stronger and stronger ... no wonder: 90% is flying Ufofires MkVIII, MkXVI, Lalas, Ki-84s, Nikis at 3K biting each own tail ... :rolleyes:

I'd like the most vocal about how easy it is to get a low rank (although they never have one) go out one month and show us top 25 performance.

Once done, I will have to oblige their denigration of rank.

This challenge isn't for someone who has posted a low rank - I know you know what it takes.

With any luck once CT comes out that will be scores we see on the home page....

I think then, we will come to see, some that of a new definition of skill. As I understand it CT is is going to be mission based, following the mission profile and staying alive are going to become a new skill....

We all, mudmovers & furballers alike, are going to have to rethink how we play the game.

I can see it now....

CAVALRY is flying along. The mission is to cover B-17's...
I look below me... a lone FW-190, low on "E" trying to get up to the buffs.

I think... I can get this guy, he has no clue I am here.....

But over the VOX comes the buff crew.....

Don't do it you SOB!... Stay with us to the target.. @#$%^&
