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?
