I never give hub a check 6.  Not that it would help him much anyway.

The opposite is also just as annoying, I was in a 2 vs 2 the the other day and the friendly with me was giving me chk 6s like every 5 seconds. Its like ya cripes I see them dude, put a sock in it. ;)

I get and give checks all the time, and the difference I notice from the checks I get are the vets let me know before something is on my bellybutton while the newbies are giving me checks when tracers are already flying past

FX1, I noticed in your stats most of your kills are the in spit16 - kind of stands to reason that you probably have tunnel vision and your SA is  99.9% on yourself.

I have flown through a furball with 25 knits in it and the radio was dead.....silent...nothing.... in my book if I am the only one talking then I probably need to find a different area to fly in.

I agree, no one should get chewed out for not checking another guys six but I am also having a hard time figuring out why its soooo hard for people to use thier mics??!?!

Holy fricking crapballs. He flies a Spit XVI that much, and he complains about people getting on his bellybutton for not giving six calls?

I give six calls to whoever I can when they need them. It's called being a good wingmate. Obviously some people are too pigheaded to see that (especially those who find it enjoyable to fly such easy aircraft).

Geeze Louise ... why do you guys keep quoting me.

FX1 wasn't complaining about NOT getting a check6 call ... he was venting cause some guy went ape watermelon on him for not giving him a check6 call.

I was only funning with FX1 on him flying the Spit 16 ... and I think he knows it.

I have run into FX1 more than once and believe me when I tell you that FX1 is more than capable when flying ANY plane in this game and his SA is far above average. It is not an easy task to "get on his ass" ... you will know what I mean if you run into him.

He doesn't fly the Spit16 as a "crutch" ... he flies it cause he LIKES it and has FUN in it and finds no need to PROVE anything to anybody. More people should have the same attitude and drop the bullchit ... "you fly a ez-mode plane".

You mean people give check six's in this game?

Geez I thought the norm here was...

1) If you see a friendly 200 ft behind a bad guy, blazing away, its COOL if you fly in front of his tracers and attempt to steal the kill.

2) If you see a flaming hulk with no wings or tail falling to Earth on fire, you should immediately follow it down and put as many rounds as you can in it

:cool:  ;)

I have a simple rule: I give a check 6 whenever I see the need. However, I do not expect one, because I watch my own six. But if I get one, it's appreciated and the giver's handle is noted.

Now, for the habitual whiners, complainers and ill-mannered tarts... They're on their own.

My regards,

Please correct your numerous grammatical errors in your sig, autopilot. My poor languange can't defend itself. And it takes any credence away from any of your statements. Not that there would be any if you fixed them but it would give you more of a chance not to look like an uneducated hillbilly.

Next thing I know, the friendly takes it in the face and as he flys by me (a smoking wreck) he says over vox ...

"Slapshot ... they guy was in front of me you jerk"

I guess when he got the check6 he looked behind him, which caused him to take his eye off the guy infront of him ... ergo ... the HO.

MY BAD !!! ... :rofl


I dont understand the complaint.
IT takes me all of about 1/10th of a second to check my 6 view and see if someone is there before Im looking forward again
