Do a search and you will be reading for days.  For gods sake just read my first post in this thread. :rolleyes:

Eh, just would be nice if everyone who has an opinion could get it outta them in the first of these threads each month instead of starting a new one a few days later just so everyone has to start all over.

I agree, hence my original post for Rip to do a search.  But honestly to come in every couple of days and ( people in general ) and whine about reading another post on topic is just as bad as the original regurgitation.  If people in general really are that sick of it they don't have to click the link, let alone come into the thread and add nothing but "Whaaaa not this again." LOL  When they do this all it tells me is they just like jumping in these threads and whining. LOLH

There seems to constantly be complaints about furballers and there lack of support of their fellow countrymen in base capturing/defending. Since the “MAIN ARENA” is geared for “TEAM” type play since there are bases with towns to capture and vehicle bases etc etc. Here’s a possible solution to the problem.

Create a separate arena and call it furball arena, that way those individual who want to do nothing but furball can all go into that arena and furball all day long and not have to listen to people whine that they are not helping their country.  After all, the Furballers do pay their $14.95 a month to have fun.  


HTC could create this new arena at little expense I would think since all you would need are two bases (one friendly one enemy) with a single hangar and a tower each (non-destructable of course). There would be no need for trees, water or any of the other ground graphics, after all they would be spending all their time in the air anyway. No need for towns, shore batteries, strat or vehicle bases, no need for ammo bunkers, fuel bunkers, ack or anything else that would normally be bombed, after all a furballer only needs a couple of things like a plane of his choice, a base to land and take off from, an enemy to fight and most importantly (at least in that individuals mind) “HIMSELF”.  All you would need is just a plain green ground, and blue sky (maybe a cloud or two). No complicated scoring system that included bombing scores, attack scores or vehicle/boat scores would be needed, just the usual fighter scores. The furballers could furball all day long without worrying about someone whining about them.

With that being said, the rest of us that enjoy “team effort” with actual goals and would no longer have to worry about the 1/3 of our country furballing at one base all day long while we lose bases. We would all be able to utilize all the wonderful tools and graphics HTC has provided us with, such as troops to capture bases, bombers to bomb bases and towns, attack aircraft, vehicles and killer trees.

Just my opinion

the reason furballers and toolshed diving fluffers don't get along and play together is that the furballers are fun lovers and the toolsheders are the enemies of fun.

If you enjoy a good fight you don't want to be in the same area with the enemies of fun.  They either spoil the fight or die like little girls.  they destroy the FH and then leave a field full of flakpanzers....  

The reason an "area" is better than a seperate arena is the ability to see an entire arena on the map and seamlessly go from one "area" of the map to another if you see something interesting... take off from a fightertown base for a couple then see a good cv fight and next sortie.... go for that.  I can see how that would be tooooo much excietment for the horde warriors tho.

Ignore the complainers, no problem.

A text file AH'ers can set, and add to, a perminant squelch... would be nice.

I dont listen much anyway, ask my sqaddies, if they can scream louder than Jello Biafra I might hear em.

Bottomline, the MA is is a free form arena. Play the game the way you want to play it......and don't rag on others for chosing to not play YOUR way.

If you REALLY want to do the teamwork thing, getcherlbutt outta the MA and into a scenerio. Personally, I find both the lil generals and the guys with furryballs to be rather amusing. :)

Yeah, I got ya.  I generally don't complain about people complaining about this stuff, but it just seems like lately there's been a ton of same topic threads in a short period.  Probably just me though.

And besides, I can't ignore the threads.  Someone usually says something that makes me lose my soda.  Unfortunately it's usually funnier if you've read the posts before it.

Now I understand. You're not so much interested in having your own area, just your own style of play.  Where ever you go in the Main, everyone should play as you play. If they don't, you'll just come in here to deride them and whine like a little girl.
