Yeah I have a lot to offer. Actually I have offered in the past. Once even in an e-mail to you. I doubt you want my help any more now then you did then.
My shots are no cheaper than yours. Since your talking about cheap shots,, this board is nothing but cheap shots. You got a guy who finds a way to take cheap shots at the Allies in every post. Nothing ever gets said to him.
Many cheap shots are made by you, and usually because somebody questions the AVA staff. Just because somebody questions how things are done , or even complains about how things are doesn't mean you need to automatically turn on the sarcasm button. Your on the staff, couldnt you handle it better? You could have replied in a different manner to see if there was a way to see Kevs point or make your point clearer to him. Your response
Why do you care? Pretty much says it all, you ethier don't care , or are of the opinon the AVA staff should never be questioned. Your response is usually like that if anyone has a complaint. So if you want to mention a lack of class,,,, look in the mirror.
I don't always agree with Oldman, but at least he seems to try and understand what the player is talking about, and reason out an answer.
What Kev said isn't the only reason numbers are down, but has a lot to do with it.
You want the numbers up? Run the RPS. Thats when you get the most numbers. Allow the planes in when they should be.
One last thing to remember.
I agree Luftwaffe planes are harder to learn as a whole. So Quote me!
However they are some of the most leathel machines in the game. Once somebody learns to fly them they should be able to handle anybody in anything.Out of necessity except for PTO's every setup will contain 109s,110's and usually 190s. Therefore the guys that love those planes get to fly those planes every setup.
I understand why this has to be. However what you guys are failing to notice is.................They become incredably proficient in them. Yet they get to complain about Allied models , insult Allied players , all while flying their favorite aircraft almost every setup. While the Allies usually fly a limited plane set of whatever the AVA staff decides is fair. Many times after lots of input by the guys flying the 109s and 190s, on this very board. So you have guys flying their favorite rides each setup against guys that have different aircraft be they Brit, US, or Russian. The only time this doesn't happen is when you run an RPS starting with BOB.
The fact that none of you on the staff havent picked up on this yet tells me your not paying attention to why the numbers are down. You can't give one side their favorites each setup, while you limit the other side and expect numbers.
Slash this is not an attack on the staff. Reading this board and seeing what I see , has led me to this opinon. I've given up on the AVA , along with quite a few others. This place has gotten to the point where it's actually more enjoyable to fly in the MA. Thats something I never thought I'd say.
I'm actually rooting for you guys Slash, and I hope you pull it out of the dive.
