Who do you respect?
« Reply #60 on: September 15, 2007, 02:19:37 AM »
Is it ok to still post a real answer?

Assuming so, my answer is this after about 4 months in:

1.  Stoney74.  Stoney's the CO of my squad, but more than that, he certainly instills a sense of what I think this game is about for me- taking these computer planes up and flying them in a historical and realistic manner, and have fun doing it.

2.  MWL (Mole).  Also a member of the squad, but I have never, ever heard MWL get in a bad mood on vox or on 200, never bad mouth, never do anything but have fun.

3.  Trotter.  Absolutely lethal.  I get alot more kills when he's not on!

4.  Widewing.  Never had any interaction with Widewing, but he seems so genuinely into helping other folks online and in game.  I really respect that because it's alot easier to just log on and shoot folks down without the whole 'work' aspect of it.

5.  Krusty, Greebo, others.  Who in their right mind takes time out of their busy day when they could be flying, and builds a skin?  WTFG guys, you take the game up that much higher a level.

6.  Skuzzy.  I know, this sounds like a total kiss-ass, but I appreciate some guy who takes time out of his busy day to police a bunch of knucklehead 'adults' who can't refrain from insulting one another on an internet forum.

2) To busy with organising things involving a capture.

3)  Your a scum bucket Ho runner reengaging when I turn away from the never ending chase.  Skilless little twerps that don't deserve any kind of recognition.

4) Just plain missed it as the text buffer rolls like a telex machine.

5) Not every fight deserves a salute.  (Ever had a proxy kill salute you? :rolleyes:

6) Every fight isn't a mandatory salute...recognising skill is a different matter.

End of my input :D



                                 I forgot to mention that of course I understand if a guy doesnt back. Obviously if I was the one shot down he/she is probably still fighting. I know for myself its hard to get to my keyboard cause my stick and controls are right in front of me and I have everything mapped to them. And also obvious if someone kills me while Im trying to land a shot to pieces B-17 I probably wouldnt them.

                            I agree. The staff, trainers, and many highly rated sticks are all very helpful and polite. There are many, many fine people in this community. I must say its strange to be, so late in life, so infatuated with an on-line game. But I love playing this game, the first on-line game I ever played.

                          And Ive received much helpful input from AH folks and senior sticks. Thank you to all.

3. Warspawn (He taught me how to fight!!!)

WOW! Thank you, Mako, I've never thought I could be on someone's list! :)

As Batfink said, I respect everyone on the game until they prove themselves not worthy of respect.

Among the others, though, I respect the most the ones who want to fight and give me a good fight... hell, no, any kind of fight! :) and they're not necessarily vets, sometimes I ran into newer players who didn't run and gave me some seconds of fun.

And, on the same level of the formers, I respect everyone who takes the time to help new players, being they trainers or not.

The list of the people is really huge, I don't want to write it down, I could forget someone and it'd not be right. You know who you are, I always have a good word for you in game. ;)

<> Mako and thank you again, you're on my list, too! :)
