I don't know you Titchy, aside from the obvious impressions you are making here via your posts, I never recall running into you in-game over all these years (not saying I never have I just don't recognize your name) I went to look at the scores page and see what kinds of planes you fly, and get a non-emotional impression of "how you play". Then I noticed the recent tour when you flew 47 sorties as a fighter and got 2 kills, and have not recently (I only looked at the last few tours) been able to break above 2 or 3 deaths per kill. Having looked at empirical data it seems to me that, with all due respect, the only "way to play this game" that you have a specific talent for is dying.

very well thought out statement edbert---no--really


 i responded to all the guys in here "crying" about how people were taking undefended bases.

unfortunatly its getting ridiculous at this point.

but anyhow---theres been alot of cryin from both sides in here.

Great points buster, but then if all this action was a result of the change how is it that HT gave you lemons, when in fact he has given you a better way to play.

Dude ... u need to re-read the post again.

They were given lemons (they thought) ... and they made lemonade ... that means they worked with what they had and turned it into something good ... as they discovered in the end.

Wish I was on last night to participate in that mission with the 56th ... BlueKitty is one of the old guard that knows the strat system inside and out ... the fact that he created a mission says alot. The dust on his mission book must have been 6 inches thick.

WTG 56th

So, even you guys telling us to defend, don't actually defend your bases?

Is this "Comedic Irony Friday" or what?

 where in that post did it say that.

 it was in response to :  do you guys fly high cap over bases to defend against sneak attacks (a brilliant question)

jeeeeez you guys just turn answers into whatever you want them to be.

[twitchy]

Well, HT, perhaps I should clairfy. I'll sum it up like this, my 14.95 is base taker money, always has been.

if i can,t get to the base myself, i,ll let those who can know about it.

So you don't feel the need to personally defend it ... let someone else maybe defend it

if it is a strategically important base---i will auger (very rare)

So you will rarely defend a base while already on a sortie

if nobody gets to the base and we lose it? no big deal, we will fight for it later.

Sorry ... I didn't get there to defend

So what you are saying is that your defense has specific parameters ... do ya think that others may have the same parameters and find it hard to defend un-defended bases cause they might already be BUSY like you.

Yeah, I auger alot to go help defend bases or run troops for people. I'm not obsessed with my fighter score to the point where I feel like I need to have all my targets in a barrell for me.

Boner,
Somehow you and Laurie got juxtaposed in that first quote, and when you responded, I missed the switch. I can't tell from any of your other posts whether you're saying to defend or not, merely that you don't.

warmest retards,
furboll

It wasn't crying but see my first post of today regarding why I don't like the new set-up.  This wasn't the reason.

Sorry Quah just using visual imagery with a tad bit of license to weave the tapestry. I like the new direction personaly. Just trying to be inclusive of my audience.....The mission was an excellent bunch of fun.    

I would rather see our community butting heads to make the best of this than attacking each other here on the BBS.  

Change is always hard for communities. But without change the community will stagnate and dissolve. HiTech knows this better than we do. Our $14.95 a month does not make HiTech our COAD slave. It's a gate fee to HiTech so he will allow us to be his guest, and a vote of confidence that he is commited to this endevor for the long term.

Are people complaining because of the change itself or because before the change they had mastered some aspect  in the previous system and looked forward to it each time they logged on as a constant in their life? This may sound silly, but it's how humans emotionally operate. Change causes people to loose things that make them feel good. So for those individuals you can see the $14.95 a month is paid as their fee to keep something unchanged in their lives.

Just out of curiosity HT, how much time do you spend playing the game? I'm not being facetious, and I don't want to know what your id is or anything, but I'm curious as to how much time you actually spend in the game because I wonder if you base your decisions on the game, or this BB.
I don't know how you go about things obviously, but if you created a game id nobody recognised and went into the game to ask opinions you might be surprised at the difference of opinion between the game and the BB.

HiTech never plays.  He just randomly changes the game in the manner he feels can piss off the most people, as that is great for buisness.  He only caters to a small minority of people who send him 12 year old bottles of Scotch.  He definately does not have the best interest of the game at heart.  He and Skuzzy sit around in Grapewhine and just laugh their tulips off at all the comotion they can cause.  

Right, twitchy?

Stang shhsh errr  HiTech errr Stang....stop giving yourself away. Now you gonna have to get another ID again.....
