I respectfully disagree with you.  Games may start out fair but then change.  Ever get your butt kicked at Chess?  Every play football?   Your opponent isn't going to give your Queen back because it wouldn't be fair that he has one and you don't.  Get 3 touchdowns ahead and the rules don't change limiting you to fieldgoals only.  

It all balances out. One arena may have more rooks but another may have more bishops.  Another more knights.

Olds was just saying something that many of us feel.  ENY does not ensure "fairness".

So when horde monkeys have better odds they get high eny AC.

So whats a more fair fight for your average player?

3 LA7 vs 1 spit XVI

or

3 P47d11 vs 1 spit XVI

Your average MA player stands a better chance against the second scenario.

So if you don't like eny you have some choices.

1. jump to the low number side.
2. change arena
3. fly high eny ac
4. go to the bbs and whine

Sadly you and aaolds have chosen 4.


Bronk


 Bronk your good dude,
 but with the arens split, every arena every night has one side or another outnumbered, thus eny kicks in, its not a horde thing its an eny thing, some switch some don't, most don't cause they fly with their friends, some get very frustrated and vent in here, thats ok, thats what venting is all about.
 I don't think eny is the answer, those claiming to look for a fair fight, well, those are hard to come by when eny kicks in, your either outnumberd or your racking up kills on tbm's, not much fun either way.
 if they wanna balance sides, they need a better incentive then eny, but i do understand AAOLDS frustration, he's not quiting, just venting.

My hats off to those who were my allies and friends.

See ya around.


AAolds, if you're REALLY leaving can i have your stuff?  I've REALLY been coveting that new self-inflating sheep you got...  just asking, no pressure...

Chess, you don't get 3 queens to the other guys 1.
Football, you don't play with uneven sides.


Rules don't change in AH.
You want to play horde monkey, no problem you fly high eny AC.
I know it's been that way since I started playing in Dec '04.
Thats the RULE.

What you want is a rule change, that isn't happening.

Bronk

EDIT: IF people are coming to the boards to whine about it......

ENY is working.:D

AAolds, glad you're satisfied for the time being... I understand your frustration at things that are done or in some cases overdone in this game.  The best thing is to remember it is just a game and as such there are other choices, including hanging it up for awhile. Never allow things that go on in the virtual world spill over into and spoil the fun of the the real one you have to live in every day!

Thankfully for us, you did however know where to end; which was, by the way, immediately after cobbling together a single sentence. Surely mister Bailey you are capable of better than that.

When you eventually quit from your limited capacity return, I suggest you use the search function to research the form and content of a proper departure message.


You are peronsaly attacking AAOLDs for his post. hmmmmm This is wierd.

A quick recap for those who may have been attending to the various necessities of a real life:

1. "Hey! Over here! Look at me! My feelings are hurt." (Note: This was not attention whoring. Saying attention potato is not nice and we will tell your mommy or cry about it).

2. 2 pages of witty insults.

3.  "I'm back with my new holier than thou attitude, accept me."

I miss anything?

Um...it's called a whine.  And whiners deserve to be taunted.  Where do I 'peronsaly' attack him?  He said he was quitting (original post...he edited it) and blamed HTC for a bunch of the usual whines.

Use the search function for:  collision, ENY, uncapturable, damage model and "GD squealing maps" to see how these things are gone over again and again.

Get your facts in order before you open your trap sir:t You odviously have a problem with my squad still being up and running and actually growing as yours took a nose dive so you must regain some dignity by trying to belittle people.That's really genuine sir wtg .
