I too have been the recipient of 0DALLASo's insipid VOX rants. And here I thought I was the only one subjected to this sweetheartbag's idiocy.

Actually, it makes me want to hunt him down all the more...

Was funny seeing two of them talk watermelon to RedTop last night. Even funnier seeing them give "advice" on how to fight, considering these guys have yet to see a 1v1 fight they didn't run from.

ack-ack

LMAO, I forgot you were there for that. I think she taunted him for like 30 minutes straight.

I can honestly say I have never had a person tune to my vox after a kill and complain to me, not that it doen't happen I just have not had it happen to me. Usually it is an exchange of or "good fight" or some form of casual to semi sarchastic banter. I find it best not to fly mad, so if someone does get my dander up I usually switch arenas or go afk till I can relax. But hey that is just me.

30 secs later some guy came on and started ranted that "next time u better get some alt". this went on for 3-4 mins at least.

i spoke on vox to a couple of squad members and said that some geezer was going off on one on vox, i didnt say who!!!! the 1st reply was " i bet thats dallas.he done the same to me a few weeks ago".

im fairly new to the game and i think im just about avarage pilot, still got a shed load to learn so im finding the game very frustrating at times and more than once a day i think "sod it ive had enough of the game" (i keep coming back for more though:confused: ).

now the last thing i need is some pratt coming on vox and having a go cuz i got lucky( or he was stupid).im having a hard enough time to learn the game as it is.now if u get a new player just starting out and he gets the same treatment whats the chances of him/her saying "f**k it. im not playing this with people like that".

now the way i see it at best what he is doing is intimidation and at worst verbal abuse. niether is acceptable in my opinion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(bit heavy for a first post but i guess i gotta start somewere)

It's really not that hard. You learn to tune out lamers like him real quick.

Hehehehe....that was funny. I wish I had been filiming during all that.

They are a different bunch that's for sure. Glad you saw that tho.

Whats kind of funny is....these guys were coming in with alt and numbers every time. It was about 2 to 1 at least. So , we were having a time. I had been hoed at least 2 times a run. SO I finally just started hoing back every time I was up. Personally I hate ho's...but when outnumberd like that and getting em most runs , its all bets are off. Ya never know until the fight is done who hoed ya or what.

AFter filling a few faces with some 20mm and the numbers got back to semi even I quit. I got picked a couple of times and decided to take off and grab a bit.....Then when the tables are turned and I shot a few down I became picktard.....

Fight the numbers....best way ya can and with the HO bascially in retaliation and get picked by those guys. Turn the tables and fight thier way and get called a pick tard....

Was definatly a no win for me that morning.

Next time somebody Pm vox's you just play one of those random movie quotes snipits that people use to do prank phone calls, and play that in the background.

I definately agree that the "loudmouths" tend to be far more belligerent to names they don't recognize than those they do. In my first 6 weeks or so here I was subjected to several PM rants and one oMoron0 VOX rant.

Since then, it's been all quiet.

It definately made me feel that AH is an unfriendly place - I'm a veteran flight sim player (7 years) and not terribly thin skinned - but I was beginning to feel uncomfortable with the tirades.

I think that the PM/VOX nonsense should be eliminated by a toggle that prevents cross country coms, which defaults to off for new players. A game that eats it's own young -which is what this one does when it harasses new players, especially those new to the genre - decreases it's own revenue stream and it's chances of survival.

One of the few areas where I feel that HTC takes a stupid risk is letting a few loud egos potentially "ruin" a new player's enjoyment of a what may have been a monumental achievement for them.
