What to do ?
« on: August 17, 2006, 01:18:01 PM »
Heya all,  here lately I have come under some fire for my aircrafts display on the OTHER  end of this game.  It seems some people think I jig my plane around, or and I quote "stop pulling your F****** cord out" :furious   JEEEZ  Is this a common practice for some people?  Hell, I have enough to do learning the fighter biz.  Adding cord jerking and stick whipping to mix = Otter-stroke.  I have a loaner PC that is not really up to this game (mine fried in a storm).  So I realize I must warp, everyone on my end does.  However, theres not much I can do about it.  Any suggestions?   I really dig AH and the community, and the only real trouble  I seem cause is the drop in my squads score.  Hey, I neither have the desire, the reason or the multitasking skills for this kinda thing.   Otterpop

Well I can't help you much with the technical things...  I can say if someone accuses you of pulling your cord just explain the situation and if they still call you a cheater or what not, just remember the world is full of stupid people, and try to not let it get to you.

Once explained if they persist, please feel free to take a screenshot of the text buffer and email it to support@hitchcreations.com.

As a general rule of thumb, anything you cannot directly effect in the game, but is taking away from the fun of it all, should be directed to us via private communication (email, PM's...).

Try going through the tech support stickies. to improve your PCs performance.

And post your specs (dxdiag) here or mail it to Skuzzy and ask what hed recommend as ingame video and graphics system.


And yes, unfortunatly for some people it has become common practice to call each other names and cheaters. (I wont say more here, ive already had my "daily meltdown" in another thread. ;)). Vudak and Skuzzy gave very good advice on how to handle it in game.

Well, alternatively you could take a screenie and post in on the BBS to start the which burning :t...

... but then again, i do not think thats your style either :).



If people get really abusive and out of line on pvt, dont feel bad about "turning them in" - its deserved. But i understand. The most important thing is to stay true to your own rules of conduct. And theres always the .squelch command :).

That is your choice, but do not make the mistake of trying to take care of problematic players by using the bulletin board.  It is not the proper place to handle those situations.

Skuzzy, im sorry if my post sounded encouraging in that way. It wasnt meant to. Its supposed to make everyone slip on the sarcasm thats dropping from it.
