assuming they knew what I was talking about and commenting on it.

 


Whats with the names again???

No one assumed anything.You just started blurting it out for everyone to hear.

And since your an experten on dragging targets of what to do and  what " NOT " to do, how about hitting the TA and showing some of those new cadets something???

Yes he is...and blowing him away while he was dragging was one of my fondest memories of AW. Of course, we were on the same side at the time....:D

This is sooo funny Cause, I seen the film. I'll have to laugh at this post for awhile. Thanks for making my day a bit cheerful.

If the film ever gets posted i'm sure alot of people will think about the way it was explained here, and have a differnt perspective on this thread.

To be more accurate...

You were chasin' one and towin' one. I was tryin' out my new vid card and flying without icons. Lined up the target...perfect lead...blew the crap outta him. Ooops, it was PH. :D

The only funnier one (from AW) was when I went PNG when I tried to help the squad CO.....and shot him down. :rofl

To be honest I thought hub's first comment was aimed at Rino and his Mustang in the scenario inferring that nice flat scissors would work nicely for hub and his 109:)

Don't worry, he's just an ankle humper and you at the moment have the sexiest ankles in AH.  Last week it was SAPP's turn when he tried to create PIMPS.  It's best just to ignore what TedStryker posts.

after the kill I asked on range "why do you guys HO?"  one southerner told that it was his 15 bucks and that he would play as he pleased, another who probably KS'd himself when his rounds missed the P38 and struck me denied he HO'd and the entire peanut gallery of six dweeblettes called me sundried names.

I invited them all to a friendly round in the DA but the respondant silence was deafening.  I then suggested that I would switch to nits and kill them all even as the hid in ack, they responded with bravado.  I logged off, logged back five minutes later, went to the same base and they had gone.  the place was a ghost town, crickets and tumbleweeds.

these weren't even squeakers either.  

I don't know if it's actually stupidity or just simply that the game is hard to master and frustrating to the noob,  just the same I wish the baby seals would remain forever bish, after all thats where they belong.




i think it's a combination.....i get frustrated too...as i think we all do at times, and say/do things we nromally wouldn't.......and we sometimes tsake this too seriously. what i seem to notice about you though, is that you are very easy going here in the boards, and seem to try to be very helpful sometimes here too. in the arenas you seem to be a very different person........you COULD have offerd the noobs some help/advice, rather than challenging them to DA,,,,,,,,i see your comments on 200 a lot.........i've had them directed at me a few times, and since you seem to tend to change countries, you've even helped me out by clearing enemies off my bombers. there's a LOT of players in ere that are glad to offer help, and after a year and a half i still listen and take advice...ind in 5 years i'll STILL take advice. next time you see noobs like that, try to educate them......look at it this way.......it'll benifit you too, as if you teach them how to actually fight, there's that many more pilots that you'll get good fights from eventually.

A rolling scissors isn't going to help the friendly save my butt, so I would do my best to drag the enemy for the friendly. This includes calling out which way I'm turning (so the friendly can pull lead before the enemy even has started his turn), which way Im going to have to do a break turn and so on. Anything I can do to help clear my butt is a plus.

I think this is what Rino was talking about. He gave a check 6 and instead of getting some help in setting up the enemy, the guy just went into defencive mode. While it may help him to make it tough for the enemy to get a shot, it makes it even tougher for someone to save him.

On the other hand, some people just don't want to be saved, some love fighting at a disadvantage, so maybe that was it.


best i've found when i get a check6........i LISTEN! 9 out of 10 pilots that send me a check, will immediatly follow up with an" i'm comming!"" then they tell me which way to go to help them help me. generally a ""break left!!"" or ""break right!!"" i've found that if i follow through like they want me to, they get their kill, and i get the help i needed.....and i get to try again to kill rather then be killed.

1) go to the top and re-read his original post.  it seems to me that when he's trying to help the guy getting shot up, and that guy wants/needs the help, he needs to do maneuvers that'll set up the bogy for a quick/easy kill....in the instance i interrpret, then the scissors is bad as the guy trying to help you is gonna be way too fast to make that shot then.
you mentioned a climbing turn to rope an nmy for another,,,,,,,,everyone i see do this gets killed beofre the bogy......again like i mentione in another post....when given a check6....the person'll usually tell ya which way ya need to go to help him help you.
just my .02

The key to a scissor is getting slower than your enemy and move in behind him. If your enemy is already faster than u it makes it that much better.

But I also stated in Rinos defense, I was not there for the situation. If there were freindlys set up to kill him then the guy should have stayed strait and narrow and janked a little if the con was over 600 out, however inside of that, and its danger zone and u gotta do what u gotta do.

Thats not what the majority of AH players want.They want kills to land for the WTG's from thier gurlfriends so thier wittle score will be better, and maybe they get on the front page.


The majority will not help the new Cadets because they had to learn the hard way and so should the NEW CADETS is the majoritys motto.
