Skyrock, heres that film of the 'ho'
« Reply #150 on: July 25, 2007, 11:03:05 AM »
Ah yes the SkyRock issue.  There is "Mark" and there is "SkyRock".  I, having never met "Mark" will go with my general assumption of people that Mark is a good person and is generally a nice person to converse with.  I'm sure he has goals in life, honors commitments and so forth.  Then there is the "SkyRock" side, a person in a caricature world, flying caricature planes, taking caricature bases.  From what I have gathered from players that have defended him, he does have skill and is a great pilot.  But his acid and somewhat very discourteous comments to other players on 200 has made a name for himself.  Perhaps that is the purpose, a whimper for recognition and attention. Unfortunately the name "SkyRock" lately has become attached with very little positive remarks.  Calling people cowards, the constant "I own you" seem to me to be a slightly uncalled for.  Well you probably are a better cartoon pilot than I am. Congrats. I think that is great you are good player, but there is someone always better than you.  In my own opinion there is something more than just being a good cartoon stick. Perhaps it’s about being a good sportsman.  Which in my own opinion you have been not been one. But my only concern with “SkyRock” is the negative effects his banter may have on the younger AH generation, and the overall reflection back onto Das Muppets.  I have only heard one other Muppet make comments like you, and that has only started with the last week or so.  In my own opinion I think it makes you and your squad look foolish and idiotic.  I’m sure you or any of the other Muppets could care less what I have to state and I am not trying to demean the rest of the Muppets.  Just remembering what my grandfather once told me and what I remind my squad mates.  “Your actions and statements not only reflect on you, but onto all of us as an entire”.

I wonder now if his creator has created a monster he can't escape from?

Like I have shared with you guys in this thread, I have spent a considerable part of my life on stage and in front of the camera, it is really easy to "clock out" and just go home!  I am very grounded at home anyway with the kids and all!  Don't get me wrong, all characters have qualities of their creator, at least in acting they do, but I don't go pushing the buggy down the isle at Kroger telling folks I own them!   :aok

I think you're wrong here though Karaya, I don't take his banter seriously at all but at times it does detract from my enjoyment of the game. I've never had a problem with you Mark but you surely realize that sometimes you step over the boundaries of good natured ribbing and take it to a level that can upset other players.

If that is what you enjoy doing then great and have fun....but don't be surprised when you get it thrown back at you. Your "DA???" answer to all negative posts about you just makes me, and I'm sure a few others, just laugh.

Many people create an online persona to make the game more enjoyable for them, many can do it without degrading another player. This isn't meant as an attack at you at all Mark, it's just an observation from a player who has been here awhile.

Someone in this thread mentioned that the "vets" should be showing newer players the right way to play since it is the vets that the new players look to for guidance. If belittling and trying to degrade players is the way that we, and HTC,  want this game to evolve then it must be time for me to find a new game :(


Dapup, you do know that just because I am loud, doesn't mean that I am the only one talking smack ingame!  Everything I say ingame is about ingame, yet most of the smack talking you find on 200 involves mothers, sisters, sheep, family references, or perverted sexual positions.  So to place the burden of which direction the game is going directly on my shoulders would be way off base!  You will never see me type anything about anyone's family and I generally try to stay away from perverted sexual comments, although I will try to generate support for a mission with one of my old standard phrases, "Join the mission guys.  Jenna Jamison is providing oral.......err moral support!"   hee hee:aok

And there we have it in black and gray.

I sure I am not the only one to see this, but I see more crap and bravado coming from complete newbs, more than ever before, who must be observing the SR persona and thinking that it is SOP to act that way after getting beat/killed. Constant excuses and insults ... hardly ever see ... "Good shot" ... "Nice move" ... "Great flying" ... or just plain silence after being "picked" or losing a multi v 1 fight.

That is why I said that SR is too good of a pilot to have to result to that type of 200 banter ... he is a vet ... he is a well known pilot ... and he is good ... time for the SR persona to evolve IMHO.

Don't get me wrong ... In the 5+ years that I have been playing, CH200/CH1 was never all roses and lace, but I really don't remember, back in the day, the vast amount of truely mean-spirited dialog that we see now ... this is part of the "slum" behaviour that HT was talking about.

The SR persona is not new ... the orginal "persona" was created by Shane and as far as I am concerned ... Shane owns the "persona".

Shane was a mentor and I did take from him what I could.  But you need not place the burden of how 200 goes on my back.  I am just real fast at typing...ie I am loudest... my content is always and only of ingame material.  200 has always, since I have been playing, full of mother insults  and sister sister insults and sexual insults and beastiality insults, so be careful when you direct a burden at just the loudest in the group!  I do not use any of those type of insults, its all ingame type of stuff!

If anybody takes anything said to them in this game serious then maybe it's time to step away for awhile. Honestly, why would you care about what someone "says" to you in a game that you play for enjoyment (i hope) and also someone who you will probably never meet? If your playing to impress someone else than your playing for the wrong reasons.

People need to relax....If ya don't like what SR types then squelch him its that simple. This-"thank you sir, may i have another" stuff is just dumb. I myself find it  fun to throw a little banter out once in awhile to get things going.:D Doesn't mean I hate the guy...It just seems to help get things going for me. I seem to play a bit better when I'm a tad worked up. I don't dislike ANYONE in this game.

For those of you that haven't DA'd with SR I encourage you to do it because like it or not he's good at this game and you can learn alot by duelling good players. I personally have DA'd SR and he taught me ALOT.

You are kidding, right?  Most of the completely horrific things that I read on 200 come from the youngsters.  The new generation of gamers, some of which have spilled over into AH, come already equipped with material that wont even get past the filters, bud!  Just remember what you just typed the next time you are in range of a squeaker fight, I would post some of the stuff I hear from them but it would just show up as a few lines of asterisks!  

The word I use that really PO's poeple is the word coward, which you brought up in your post here.  Now if I am ingame and a plane jumps me, then bnz's me, then finally runs out of E, but saves just enough to run a full sector back to his base as I follow, only to turn back when 3 of his buds from said base start ganging me;  to me this is cowardly.  I don't know of any other word to describe that type of gameplay!  If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then...............!  Besides, game talk or smack talk, is just that, nothing more!  

Someone posted in this thread that I am an antagonist, they are correct, and without antagonists, there would be no wars, and this is a war game!  I can't tell you how much fun it was to try and shoot Shane down, or ManeTMP when I was a newb.  When someone on country found where they were fighting, many people would auger and go to that base just so they might be the one to shoot them down.  It was extremely exciting and was some of the best of times.  Same can be said for the Ah1 LTAR's.  When they were spotted at a base, it would spread like wildfire across the country channel and immediately you could see hordes of loaded down jugs and hogs and ponies upping in their direction.  If someone got through their most accurate and lethal barrage of 37mm's to actually  get one before they towered, you could hear the excitement in their voice as the yelled on range, "I just killed an LTAR!"  I never hated Shane calling me a castrati, or Mane saying I was lucky, (well I did get bent out of shape at first) but what they said made me want to get better so that I might own them one day.  And like I said, it was some of the best times trying to get them.  So antagonists are usually what makes things spice up a little, turns up the volume a bit, and definitely raises the bar of play rather than to lower it, IMHO!  


PS  I see you on 200 almost everytime I am on, talking smack to or about  me without me ever saying anything to you.  Is this what you are preaching in your post here?

I saw Skyrock in a movie once.

His lines were simple but he said them with such conviction.

Man, he was good.  Brought a tear to my eye.

You know, I was kinda poking fun at Skyrock earlier in this thread but one thing I have noticed repeatedly in his responses to many of the comments made is how he was only beaten because the other guy had an advantage.

All I have to say Skyrock is if your going to whine everytime someone takes you out in the MA's because they had an advantage of some sort you need to stop flying there. There is no such thing as a fair fight in the MA.

I know I have been picked out of the air many a time from someone I never saw coming. Who cares??? I know I have picked people out of the air who never saw me coming. Who cares??? I have lost fights because the other guy was flying a plane that turned better than mine. So what??? I have won fights because I was in a better plane than the other guy. O'well.

That's life in the MA, but there is NO reason to go on 200 and hammer people for taking and using an advantage to kill you unless you ego is so damn fragile that's the only way to build yourself back up. If that's the case go get some professional help.

Now Skyrock you can go ahead and try to hammer on me for saying all this, call me out to the DA, whatever. It doesn't matter to me, just know one thing. I don't care if your a better cartoon pilot than me. I'm not even interested in finding out. I guess that makes me a coward in your eyes. Whatever. I only hope one day in the MA I run across you and pick the living crap out of you just so I can see and listen to the whining. I imagine when that day happens I'll fix myself a nice strong drink and log off with a smile on my face.
