That's not ever happening. All the griefers on the net would flock to AHII for free two weeks accounts and sit on the fields popping everyone who tried to lift. Or they'd cherry pick their own side's players prior to trying to kill the enemy plane that was in front of him. It would be a lawless free for all.
Could you imagine the carnage of the 8 on 1 conga line with everyone shooting at the lead plane?
I think this is in part an indirect result of 4 War arenas with population caps. It has divided some of the organized squads for one reason or another. Less organized play than what was even seen under the old MA.
No simple solution. Avoid furballs and vulches, as they attract kill-stealers probably the best way to avoid this situation. With various shades and milkrunners in game, that score doesn't mean very much. If name in lights is important, you'll need to work harder at it.... multiple sorties per plane, prowl the ant-line approaches to a fight or edges of a furball, wing up with a few others for effective fighter sweeps, follow your kill down (maybe the kill stealer will killshoot himself).
You can vent over Country, Local, or Channel 200, within reason. Certain kill stealers will gain a bad rep for themselves in time. Note which ones are a problem and leave an area you find them in, or switch sides and hunt them down (maybe bring friends along?).
Find something other than getting mad or upset. If you are playing a game and it is making you upset, it is time to walk away from it for a while.
