Wrong, I've posted MANY times about SHawk's Tour.   He wasn't selfish.   Do a search.   Arm yourself with FACTS before spewing drivel to "speak up with the incorrect masses."

With regard to Shawk, I certainly wouldn't call him timid, I'd call him a good shot.  He does fight smart and doesn't appear to dive into the middle of a situation where he doesn't have the ability to disengage.  Some would call this timid, I don't and he certainly does have skills.  

Look at any "successful" pilot's percentages and you can usually spot a factor that's outstanding.  In his case it appears to be his shooting where his hit percentage is consistently in the mid to high teens.  That's outstanding.  He also likes the cannon (typically with a C-Hog attached).  Combine gunnery skills with effective guns and a smart fighting style and you earn a good score.

Note that I said "earn".  Just because he doesn't fight the way you'd necessarily fight you still have to respect his skills.  There is a lot to be said for fangs-out furball flying but that doesn't make it "better" or more legit than other forms.

What a rediculous statement.

Each person is responible for his/her enjoyment only. Tell you what, you start paying my $15.00 per month and I'll worry about your  fun a little.
No-one plays the game for someone else's enjoyment.  I've never had someone tell me:  " Hi Steve, I logged on so you could have fun."

Irrespective of SHawk or any others, one flying style requires one level of skill, while other style requires another. Fly above 5 bandits and pick them one after one need some skill without doubt, but run into middle of band and kill them all in cruel close fight against all five at once needs a lot more.

well judging by your statement, I care ALOT about other people's fun and very little about my own....yet I really don't care. I fly I die repeat...it's all for the benefit of the masses.

Isnīt that a big exaggeration?

Certainly 5.472 KPH is not not top-notch, but still better than 85% of all AH players.

He's only got 4 KpD if you add up all the "attack" stats. Most score-potatos only fly as "fighter" for a while, get bored or (*gasp*) die a couple of times, then fly "attack" until the next tour, so as not to damage their "rank" with the numerous deaths they encounter.
