Fix .ef from chutes !

When I bail, I enjoy shooting my .45 at the planes. I actually got a kill once. That was a hoot.

I shoot every chute I see. Woe to the pilot who bails into my guns.

Not sure if anyone posted this ... but I bet the reason it was done is many players were hitting alt-f4 instead of wasteing time floating in a chute.

If I bailed at 20k on accident I'd alt-f4 before waiting.

Was floating down in my chute last night and some guy in his/her spit opens up on me.  I unloaded the 45 at them.  There were no winners.

I have 21 confirmed lifetime kills while in my chute and have been killed 4 times by chutes.

Errr.... I still dont really get it. But that might just me being blonde, so bear with me for a second please :). Why have them "fix" it over 2.5 years after the fact? Kinda baffles me.....



Any ways: I never really cared what someone did after getting shot out of his plane... so to chute or not to chute.... I dont mind :D.


     The only time I bail is when someone wants help somewhere else and
it's always in a undamaged aircraft.  I like .ef as it saves time from falling
into the ground :D

     That aside, I'm still trying to picture Schatzi's blondness :D
