Just because you lack the common sense to help them does not mean you can come on here and chastise them.



I believe he is saying, why help someone who doesn't take the time to help him/her self. If they don't take time to get the minimal basics..... then come online.... doubtful they'll stay long. One question is not bad... but step by step questions, not even knowing hardly one control in the game..... well they're out of luck where I stand. I am in the main arenas to fly, drive, float, kill and be killed and have no time for hand holding. Now if I am in the TA and they ask for help, I'll gladly spend all the time needed to answer any question one might have. There I am not saddled with the SA and such that is required in the MAs.

In short, if they don't care... why should I.

Heh... had one of these moments a couple of weeks ago in the MW.  My new player was on channel 1 doing the Napoleon thing.  You know...

I was already up in a P38J with tanks ... hmmm, he's not on my side.  Just out of curiosity, "Where are you heading?"

"I'm going to bomb A9!!"

Well, I had just upped from A9... isn't that special... "Where are you coming from?"  Note:  other Bish were in the process of explaining radio channels etc.

"I'm coming from A60!  I'm going to hit A9!!"

Sure enough, tiny dar bar a sector away.  "Give me your exact position and altitude, I'll come and meet you."  Note:  other Bish were now being adamant trying to explain the use of proper radio channels.  Alas, without success.

"I'm about halfway there!!  Anyone wanna help?"

"Don't worry... I see you, I'll be there in a second."  

As he spiraled in, I too felt the pangs of a guilt ridden conscience.  Therefore, I changed countries to try and help his fellow Bishops educate this individual.  Alas, he still would not listen and soon logged.  Nine year olds... who gives them a credit card in the first place? :D

Heh, the only thing I asked for was how to turn VOIP off. Thank you for answering that whoever you were.

Seriously. I often wonder that. Im 14, but I had to make a freiking powerpoint to my parents about the positive aspects to convince, and THEN I still have to pay for my own account, which makes sense, but all these kids arent even paying for it themselves! Their parents pay $15 a month for them to fly around in a La-7 and annoy people. At least by paying for it myself and actually having to work to get my parents to LET me pay for it, I dont take Aces High for granted.

How in all H**l can someone have over 2000 posts and have joined AH in 2006?  Don't your parents know you are never in school?

I have never ditched or cut class. Look at the times of most posts. Its in the middle of the night. Im an insomniac. And at night, I cant play AH so I read all of the stuff here. I am also very vocal. Hey I pay $15 a month, and I fly honorably. So I like to post here a lot... :D


(BTW bronk, I dont fly La-7s and I dont vulch, so this is the only place you get that kind of fun)

Actually, I tend to recommend the site:

http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/

more than any other.  IIRC, it also links to both Dok Gonzo's fighter comparison site  and Soda's  fine aircraft website.   Probably should also link to Hammer's Netaces.org, or at least accesses much of the smae information.

It also has a downloadable AHII Quick Reference (version 2.03 last I saw) sheet.


Shuffler really hit on it though.  I have little use for people unable to make use of any small part of the resources available to them by showing some small bit of intiative, especially while still sitting down.   People that need spoon fed.
