Funny to hear about what each country is or isn't, or what it does or doesn't do. Especially humorous to hear some think the Bish give more 6 calls than the Knits after I just verbally spanked about 12-15 bish (almost all with names I've never seen before) defending a base for not saying a single word for almost ten minutes. Seems I'm saying more often to the Bish "Anyone there?", "radio check", "Hey, do you guys even own mics?" LOL
I guess all types of behavior happens on all sides, but occurs to different degrees in some kind of cycle, hence the different perceptions of, and by, each country at any one point in time.
From my general observation of the Bish's reaction to the other two countries, it seems their general perspective is the Knits are less of a threat. Not trying to insult anyone, and it's not really said outright, but I think the Bish are rarely even concerned with what the Knits do in the long run since they don't do it very well (as they used to, and I'm not talking about individuals).
The Rooks are seen as dangerous only if we let them get up a head of steam and don't respond quickly enough. Even then, I would concur they have less stamina than they used to, as depicted with the anology of a snowball that melts away on it's own.
Certainly there are great sticks, squads and missions on all sides, and eventually the cycle will shift, the perspective change. However, I'm inclined to believe the recent changes to the game have caused this, and some permanent and detrimental impact to the player community.
Certainly, seeing the same (dam*) arenas over and over and over and over again, ad nauseum, is not helping. Nor is having to endure the now ever more lopsided ENY. In the old MA structure I hated the ENY then, but I never, ever saw an ENY of 29 reached, and rarely one that reached 20. I can remember at least 3 times in the past few weeks when the Bish were flying bicycles with rubber band props because ENY reached 29. HiTech get a clue, it ain't working.
