Oh & by the by, all ack guns have NG in the title on the objects list, and since there is only one ammo factory it was right at the top of the list.So thanks for pointing that out, it would have taken under 2 minutes to find them and not the original 5 as i had typed before.

I think the reason ROC answered you in that way was the way you posted your suggestion. You came off as(no offense by this) kinda a dick in your post. You could have posted your suggestion in a little more respectful way.

Well Sweet2th, (I assume that's what your boy friend calls you)

wrong, at the time I (we) didn't know that, but then again you don't know what you are talking about either. (but you are close)

The ACK guns at the ammo fact. at A12, are not CO3AMF000NG. As a mater of fact that particular code is not on the destroy objects list. If you want to destroy the ACK guns at that location on that map, you will need to destroy objects:

C03GNG000
C03GNG001
C03GNG002
C03GNG003
C03GNG004

C03AMF000 (i don't see any "NG" attachment) is one of the many ammo factory buildings, and destroying it will do nothing for the ACK. But, you already knew that...... right?

suggestion...... If you are going to come off like a S-A. make sure you have your facts straight. Or else you look like a D-A.

Sorry i didn't get the lettering exactly right.But atleast it was another option.Pretty sad that " I " have to be the one pointing out yer mistakes huh?

Some folks just don't like being put out on front street with thier lack of ability to properly run an arena.

SLED is starting to show his true colors though, keep up the good werk buddy.Your really showing us all how a SEA CM is really suppose to act,ROC made an excellent choice on that 1

And uh it's not my problem your taking what i type the wrong way, but it does let me know that your bothered by someone else pointing out the obvious.Maybe next FSO you'll have all yout T's crossed and your I's dotted Buddy:aok

Sweet2th, what you just did on the boards is a clear example of what we go through on last minute glitches.

You had ample time to correctly look up the numbers, and got them wrong, and the next day realized your mistake.

Again, we had a couple minutes and many other things going on at the time.

So, please, sometimes you make valid arguments and other times, like I said, you are showboating. Don't do this, please, you aren't accomplishing anything constructive.

trax1 · « **Reply #36 on:** July 22, 2007, 10:54:59 AM »

Sweet2th I really don't think you should be criticizing the CM's, they do what they do for us to have special events for free. They put all this time and effort into the game to make it more fun for the rest of us and they don't even get paid for it. Mistakes happen, it's a fact of life, no ones perfect. If you have such a problem with the way they handle things then just don't play. I think they do an excellent job and do make this game more enjoyable for the rest of us.

So I'd just like to say ~~to the CM team for putting these events together for us each week.~~

What Filth said. At this point no one is looking pretty.

Back to the topic in general...

Quote

Maybe not patient enough. Instead of towering and logging perhaps I should have requested a new plane from command. In circumstances such as these, would I have been allowed a fresh plane? I'm thinking perhaps I would and my hot-headedness kept me grounded.... You get so used to the "one plane - one life" end of it I guess.

It is always easy to look back and see your mistakes. The hard part is doing it on the fly. My squad once lost about 2/3 going off the deck of a CV in a Pacific Squad Ops. We had about 14 pilots and 3 or 4 made it up. Reason was the CV was going downwind and the winds were pretty strong. At that time I did not let my guys reup as I was running FSO at the time. Hind sight is 20/20, I think I should have.

Another time a squad loaded with rockets were sitting on the runway and one of them by accident let loose with his rockets. Killed just about everyone in his squad. They were (if I recall) allowed to reup. Mistakes happen and sometimes to the whole squad. Each one should be looked at by the hosting CM carefully and make the call. After that rocket incident the CM’s turned on killshooter for the first few minutes of FSO, but then turn it back off after about 10 minutes. Solves that problem.

Agreed. This was never meant to become a critique of the Campaign Managers, it was just me venting out loud.

Please gents. this matter is resolved. Let us let it go.

Actually your wrong on that ROC.When ever i was in a AH Scenario i hosted the same map in H2H and went over the orders to a T, so that any glitch or miscalculation could be corrected.

Hosting a H2H room is where you learn how to play with the settings and what they need to be at, and what those settings are.It's really easy to change settings actually.

I was pointing out A 3rd option that you may have taken on Friday night.I can see how you and the Chump would take offense to that(any way it was typed) and i understand.Maybe you guys can learn from this.Does a person really have to come onto these boards and type a certain way to others as SLED does?He even responded to Tinman with a little to much arogance i thought, which is what tempted me to type anything in the first place.Maybe SLED need's a wittle bit more practice before you give him the controls ROC.Maybe he needs to tone it down a notch and learn to take some constructive advice once in a while, funny i think i remember you telling me that on TS once before...........

Anything good on TV this morning?

This will be my last post on this subject, I don't owe sweet2th an explanation, but I do owe the FSO community one.

it started with this.....

Then the response......

Quote

Why Thank You !!

With that response you were saying........ "Yes, I am trying to be a D**k, I like being a D**k, I want to be a D**k on this BB."

Then I realize that his information is wrong, and decided to call him on it. I did go over the top, and I should have tempered my response a little. I acted like a D**k, and I am not proud of it.

So my apologies to the FSO population.

I apologized publicly on this BB (look it up) to sweet2th, once for a wrong assumption, I won't be this time.

Even though it was wrong for me to slam him, he did deserve it.

That is strange. As I remember there is no more Puffy ACK at air bases like A12, correct?

so I don't know why the ammo fact. would be firing at allied planes.

Husky01 · « **Reply #43 on:** July 22, 2007, 02:50:27 PM »

Does Puffy ack have the ability to kill shot? Could the ack have been aiming at the axis planes around you but a stray shot hit you and took out your bird? Just a thought.

REP0MAN · « **Reply #44 on:** July 22, 2007, 03:14:38 PM »

Friendly ack has been know to kill friendly planes too, in cases where many enemy planes are in the area being fought by many friendly plane. Puffy goes up, you get a small piece of shrapnel in your oil. It's happened to me several times in the MA.

As far A-12 and the ammo puffy, it was shooting at the AXIS planes defending A-12. Unfortunatly, some of the ALLIED planes may have taken damage due to their proximity to the AXIS planes in the area.
