Someome post a MOTD in the MA. It seems to me only 50 forum guys believe it, and they're the last to bother to defend it.

Hitech didn't make any altitude restricted areas that I know of. There was no MOTD stating any fields were for 0-10k fights. If you can't be bothered to defend a field, don't whine.

You're just not as special as you want to be.

And neither are the lame tards who want to spoil fun of others.

Otherwise we wouldn't be able to speak to the other teams.

Have a nice day Mr. I'm Special

Actually I changed sides and spent a number of sorties killing C47s when up until the LCA's brilliant plot I was having a blast trying to kill planes that would actually shoot back. It was a complete waste of my time necessitated by a few griefer's insistence on trying to ruin FT for everyone...

I'd love for someone to tell me what the strategic point of attacking that FT base was... Let's see here...

The main target was the Knight airfield...

The Knights were already down to less than 20 (or so) bases.

Probably a good 1/4 to 1/3 of the Knights were having fun in FT, ignoring the defense of the 20 or so other bases.

Of those 1/4 to 1/3, I know I ran into quite a few names who could mount a serious defense against any mission launched at one of those other 20 bases.

So what was the point? Kick those 1/4 to 1/3 outta FT so they have no choice but to defend the other 20 or so bases? No offense, as I'm sure there are exceptions, but the majority of people in these grief raids don't exactly strike me as the sort of people who like a good challenging dogfight...

Basically, from a "win the war" perspective, capturing FT is about as big a blunder as one can make.

This brings me to my earlier thesis that these LCA types are either strategic idiots, or out to ruin people's fun just for the sake of ruining it.

Somehow, "just shoot em down" isn't a sufficient answer for you guys.

Interesting to see this guy posting about the LCA's cover being blown while trying to capture FT fields....since HE is the one that posted it was going to happen a couple of days ago.

Personally, I've never seen the need for personal comms outside country. But hey, HT wants it...so we got it. As for folks trying to capture TT/FT fields...HT specifically did not preclude it. The most he would allow is terrain discouragement (ungodly high mountains). Folks do have to go out of their way to get there and it is an obvious attempt to pee in someone else's pool. The fields have no strategic import. So, you're just griefing....pathetic.

Because until they show up, FT is usually full of people who want to fight... When griefers show up, it's not a simple matter of "just shoot em down" but, climb for 10-15 minutes, then chase the lemming line for the rest of your sortie. I mean, dead six shots are nice, but they get old after awhile.

B@tfinkV · « **Reply #38 on:** June 18, 2006, 11:38:43 PM »

why not disable flight from all fields, just in case we might crash on take off, or be shot down?

how about it we have like a trigger pulling contest, whoever can hold thier ho shot trigger down longest as they sit in the tower wins.

if your team gets 5 wins you win a field.

At figter lake on dohnut we should have a task group of battle ships to launch tactical nukes at the towers with all the trigger pulling contestants in.

when the tower's health bar breaks down we all get discoed, and have to relog.

bombs will be replaced by bananas and pineapples and launched from the towers in similar fashion to the game worms. body armour regenerates every twenty minutes in the map rooms.

the map is reset when someone finds a worthy use for perk points and sucesfully spends some.

And of course to eliminate any cheating whatsoever, the game will have no sound, no text coms to anybody at all, and communication will only be permited through using tuning forks and cheese wire to imitate the mating call of a humming bird.

i think thats reasonable to ask for.

Ya got plenty of other bases, go fluff it up there.

I had NO idea Hitech set "furballers" apart as some special species exempt from the game, sorry. He should give you some little protected area to furball.

Can't you read? The original poster is upset that folks discovered his mission and thus 'his cover was blown'. He didn't go to capture an FT base to 'fight' but to ruin the fun that other were having.

No one is going to waste their play time flying circles around a field at 30k hoping to catch a griefer. Therefore, some folks will warn the other side when they see folks on there own side launching such 'griefer missions' ensuring that the 'griefer mission' gets shot down. Thus FT was 'defended' by the folks who enjoy to fight there.

The original poster didn't want a fight, they just wanted to 'sneak' a capture of an FT base. He and his 'sqwaddies' are nothing but griefers. If they just wanted to organize a 'mission' for 'sqwad night' they could have done it some where else.

HT doesn't have to tell folks not to capture FT bases. FT and the folks that enjoy flying there will take care of themselves. The MOTD doesn't say anything about not turning the table on the griefers either. If he doesn't want people ruining his fun they he should could not attempt to ruin the fun of others.

Blooz, the point is, in this specific situation, there is a group of people (the LCA or whatnot) who are trying to force another group to play THEIR way, while the other group (furballers or whatnot) are pretty darn content to let the LCA play however they want, somewhere else, just so long as the furballers can all play however THEY want, in their own little corner.

It's just common decency not to try and capture FT. Sharing, compromise, all that.

But if people don't want to be decent, the same thing will hopefully happen. All three countries working together to make sure FT stays FT.

Okay, okay, FIRST OF ALL: To sow a seed is to plant it into the ground and nurture it until it grows, where you then reap the fruits of your labor (or the veggies of your labor). To "reap what you sow" is the same as "you made your bed, you lie in it" (or is that "lay in it"??).

SECOND OF ALL: If the Knights, on a 250+ field map, were down to 20 fields, and 1/3 of the tards were screwing around in FT, then that Knit FT field is fair game. Maybe with it gone they might.... oh, I don't know.... Defend their remaining fields? FT is not the only place to find furballs. It's just a gratuitous instant-gratification area. Most of the memorable fights I've had weren't in FT, but around contested airfields.

So 1) It's not "sew" -- that is what you do with needle and thread. [*END SPELLING NAZI MODE*] and 2) If the Knits were so wrapped up in instant gratification that they let their entire map be captured, they brought the FT loss upon themselves.

I believe that FT should be left alone, until the end result is too obvious to argue about -- in this case it seems this criteria was met, and the FT base was fair game.

Once again see my post about HT letting like minded people put a stop to griefing others.

I'm not even a big furball fan. But spoiling the fun of others on the one map in the set where the fuball is easiest .... that's just lame and griefing.

If you can't see that I'm sorry for you. You are just as bad as the guys who want the furball and nothing else. You sir are the epitome of play my way or else crowd.

Have a nice day Mr. I'm Special.
