Face it RankTardlings will be just that... Its all they have to make themselves feel all nice and fuzzy inside to know they have a nice high shiney rank...


lol...

Many of that guys you name do only have a "lower" rank because they just fly fighters. Would any of them care to fly bombers an do GV sorties from time to time, they would been ranked top 10 too. But wait, that would prove they do suck... ;)

And let's face it, the only people constantly talking about (other peoples) rank are the ones pretending not to care about it :)


Fact is: You don't need to be the best pilot to get into the top ranks. But being one of the worst ones won't get you there either.

K/D can be a good indicator, but dont trust it. Someone with a K/D of 5 can very well be flying mostly lalas, spixteens etc, while one with K/D of say 3 may fly more challenging planes... That does not make the 5 K/D fella a "better cartoon pilot" than the one with 3.

Overall rank can mean that the player is fairly good at, and enjoys all aspects of the game, or it can mean that he is only playing for score. Both are fairly easy to spot (unless they hide in EW/MW all day).

The ONLY good thing about the rank/score thing is that it may prevent atleast alittle bit of the suicide attacks and mindless pork-n-running by atleast some players.

Agree but the guy with 3 K/D in more challenging planes is scoring higher on each kill.  There have been times I've had the same # of kills as squad-mates but twice the kill points.

I will back you up on Dogg being able to put up a good fight.  I watch him fly into a group of nme and he comes out alive and they all have to relaunch.  :D   Alot of those guys in the top scores are the ones who sit in the EW/MW and milk it and then they whine when you shoot them down.  The ones that get me are the guys with 4 or 5 guys in thier "squad" and milk it to have one of the best ranking squads... oh well I guess they must be aces at this game then! :rolleyes:

And here's the current top 10 ranked fighter pilots, 3 of which were on your list of better sticks and only 1 of whom is in the top 10 overall.

364565
Fester
wETRAT
BearKats
Fringe
Steve
SHawk  
81524352
SkatSr
SkyRock

Don't confuse overall rank with fighter rank.

The one numbers guy doesn't count. Its a glitch in the system.

You only see two fighting?  Wow you might need glasses.

Only 1 is a Milker.

One of those muppets I've seen fly pretty timid at times.
