I find myself not using my ACM skills and running head on into muti cons. I think its because my play time has diminished and i have a hard time sitting down for a nice long night of AH. Does anyone else have these problems?

I got burnt out and just started taking up 110s/IL2s and HOing. It's great to hear some of the whines. I'm now on a very extended break.

L0L I have those nights when I'm in the mood to fly wreckless....

I'll up a p-47 and not get any Alt watsoever and dive into 8v2 furball just too see how many people I can make overshoot and auger....basically just to see how long I can last...

Those nights when I could give two S***'s about "working on the town" or "lets take out the ack".... or anyother S*** that involves team play...

I'll HO a couple of people jus to hear them say "nice ho"  in which I'll sarcastically say thank you, or just to hear them say "ya Dweeb" in which I'll say" I know ",and jus because I can ho them cuz I have 8 .50cals and they don't :D

I'll ho Bombers, LaLa's, Hurri's, 110's IL2's (mayb not IL2's but...) and anything that flies in front of me, just to hear them pissed of on ch 200...

I get a kick out of it :lol

It's my in flight entertainment :D

yup but gradually (very gradually for me) I live longer per session.  I now look for the biggest red dar bar with the smallest green.  it get's the fix I need quickly then I go and do other things.

:lol I think that was like last Sunday I believe....

I was in no mood to care for my own well being. Even squaddies were telling me I was crazy. I said "i know ". I was jus flying around Hoing, Vulching, PIcking, basically being the ultimate Four Cannon Hizooka Dweeb :D ... but yea I dont do those sorties very often but when I do I get a kick out of it....

BTW did you manage to shoot me down in the scissors?

My KD isn't that bad for being vulched in attack for the first week of the camp. I just haven't been rtbing and landing kills our running people down that dont engage just to be picked by 3 of his friends. Good thing about those runners they never live even if i die(:

I wonder if an "advanced arena" concept might help.  Maybe charge double the subscription.....$39.95  This would clearly have a seperating effect and provide for a more challenging experience on line.

I would pay it! Maybe not every month but the months that i know i am going to playing because work is slow. I think a $25 gold account with qualifications to become a member would be great. This would be a great place for vets to have some fun and dont need to worry about hoing La7 every run.
