Enough all ready with people complaining that other players are ruining their gameplay because someone takes down a hanger. Some guys understand that the town is best to kill first, and hangers second if the cap isnt there. Others are new and just like to bomb stuff. Its just the way it is.

This arena is'nt setup for one type of player. Learn to play with eachother, bite your tongue and move to another field. Its not like you have to walk there.

Channel 200 looks like a romper room. Its embarrassing to be part of it.
What if you were on a baseball team and the 3rd and 2nd basemen decide they dont like the regular game part of it, and just want to play catch, all the while dumping on the other players?

On the subject of the LCA, alot of them are new guys who maybe just recently found the game. They are excited about it like we once were. Let them have their fun. Chasing them away only hurts the game. One day you guys will find yourself wishing there was something to shoot at.

Respect the player for his subscription, if nothing else. He has the right to do whatever he wants, even if its not what you want. It takes years of conditioning to be as geektafied as we are over a flightsim...don't chase others away before it has a chance to take on them.

Too bad the toolshedders have to deal with people being unhappy.

i would accept the whole noob thing, except for the fact that i lost count of the times at a base with 20 freindlies over it, few town buildings up, few strafing them, when a buff guy comes on range and says he is heavy, he is dropping the FHs....then about 10 guys tell him, just hit the town, goon is here, field is capped, then boom, there goes FHs. so the didnt no better doesnt always work.

Well said Filth...

Had a guy this weekend go all ballistic cause myself and another player dove down to help out. He was all worried we were going to steal his kill... Kept yelling "stop shooting stop shooting". Told him we were just trying to help, he made it quite clear he didn't want our help and complained about us shooting at "his kill" cause it was on fire. I've seen flaming planes shoot people down. Anyway, since he was being quite rude I told him I didn't care if it was a chute I was gonna shoot it. The other pilot who dove in with me said if it's in the air it's fair game. We both told him that he was on his own cause were NOT going to cover his six.... Like Dude, chill out... He flew off ALONE never to be seen again.

I'm with ya Filth

Blowing stuff up = fun
Shooting planes down = fun
Getting shot down = ok, not so fun...but it make the other two more fun

CC bigsky. I had some guy the other day zoom in front of me firing at the Zeke I was after and then start crying and calling me names for killstealing.

People REALLY need to lighten up in the MA a little. I do believe the field-hospital in the TA has a stick-from-anus remover...

Wouldnt matter to me also if they didnt hunt out the furballs and kill them by dropping FHs.

It does sort of *suck* when you work your butt off & flame the enemy ( who now only has a matter of seconds to live ) only to have someone come screaming in & try to take the kill. I have also seen flaming planes kill someone before going down, but not more than once or twice in a year & a half. Maybe he shouldn't have been rude about it...but he probably thought what you did was rude. I will not even fire on an enemy plane if I see one of my comrades in a good position to make the kill; most of the time I'll ask first if they have it under control or if they need help, ( I'm not much help but I try ) There are times however when things happen & I "kill-steal" without intending too, I usually give a " sorry about that" & usually I am forgiven. Being respectful to other players & posters is sadly lacking for the majority of people.

Seeing the crying on channel 200 from a successful bomb drop on fighter hangars carries more applause than anything else I can imagine.

If they dont like it, they are welcome to c'mon up and challenge me at 12k. But I'm pretty sure most of the Spit16/La7/N1K fellas would get a nosebleed up above 2k

MA on Squad nights, jump on 200 to say Hi, tune it out, then spend most of my time building or participating in a scenario.

No stress, all pleasure

I have been at this game for 4-5 years now. I have respect for the furballers and the toolshedders. If the BT's Blue Thunders are going to take down a base we stay away from the furballers so they can keep their game play. If a pilot takes your kill let him no about it without offending. Usually it is newbes and need to be shown the ropes. Lastly it is a game, when you get that upset walk away, kiss the wife, hug the kids, and pet the dog.

Exactly! This mornig we were trying to take A6 ,some bomber guys come in and take out the FH and leave the VH alone,about 30 gv's came pouring out of it,then they complained cause gv's were in town and they couldnt take it.Long story short we finnally go it ,but after about another 2 hrs of fighting.

First rule is always to take out VH/ACK then proceed from there.If 30 friendlies are there ,it should be capped,but leaving the VH standing just stops them from upping fighters, as they get gv's out to stop the vulching which is already stopped by the FH's being down.

I fully understand that most are new guys ,but there's almost always a vet or seasoned player close enough to help steer the newer players in the right direction.Over all though I still like the game and it doesnt bother me how people prefer to play their game.I'll just go attack another field to draw enemy away.

this statement speaks volumes.

actually we could eliminate channel 200 and all the smack goes with it, if you need to "talk" to the other country then do a PM.

I cry alot on 200 but it is just a bad habit like smoking (just quit that in Dec after 40years of 3 packs a day).

The funny thing is that guys say stuff on 200 in the heat of the moment that they would never say otherwise.

As far as "toolshedders vs Furballers" it's all in the eye of the beholder and will NEVER change until this game is changed (Tour of Duty anyone)
