A question of respect...
« Reply #60 on: November 13, 2007, 05:08:21 PM »
TC et al.  aren't we taking a cartoon game a bit seriously?  posting evidence?  surely you are joking sir.  who cares?

I don't want to seem like I'm boasting as that isn't my intention and most of you know I'm an average player on my best day and woefully lacking on most days but I had no problem whipping these acolites up to 3v1.  at 5v1 they had me but I didn't give my self cheaply as fugitive has suggested.

maybe we should all just lighten up on the avengers just a bit

rap, fully half of the posters opining here never even enter the arena and if they did and I saw their CPIDs on the roster I would whip their cartoon tulips so thorougly that they would stay out for another two years, and they know it too.

yea,  jusst wanted to nix the thought of "my assumptions" of what actually happen..
is all good, forget the film......is the same as the film I posted of another squad where  it was 8 vs 1 or 7 vs 1........and I did not fly to that fight either. most of the film is me chasing  red dots around on radar. then the P51 trying to vulch me deadstick, the film really is almost to the pin head of  how I described my opening post.

they are new, and they fly as a group. This is not a bad thing at all.  I will try to accomadate them with providing opposition for their missions, if I am bored and got nothing else to do and there are others to work with in putting up a defense.

I know this is a little off subject so I'll keep it short.
Storch - the way you type, spelling/phrases etc. do you happen to be from, are living in, the UK?
Just curious as I'm from the UK. You didn't sound English on the in-game radio the other day.

Sorry to interrupt the mud slinging in here.

Carry on chaps .....

HRDHRD

Edit!
Didn't realise your call sign was based on "The Storch" plane - silly me.
Just checked the green hearts site and the penny dropped.
So, are you from DE? Do the say stunninghunk there not the US spelling - Lol.

My guess is either NY or Pennsylvania.

I'm cuban, born in cuba.  came as a refugee to miami.  we live in miami but have lived in many parts of the planet including the UK, either with my dad who was in international finance for the better part of his young adult life or during my military service.  after my service I came back to my beloved tropics and the only way I'm leaving is horizontally.  frau storch is a new jersey girl so she has northeasternized me a bit but through and through I'm a cuban redneck since I was but a yoke.

mud slinging will resume as soon as I receive some noteworthy hits on my bait.

I am serious guppy, well as serious as one should be when one is discussing a cartoon game with adults.

pffft eagler, the guy with the one person squad.  get out more sir you might make friends, or enemies but for pete's sake go make something son.

the room is not empty 90% of the time.  it has better attendence during east coast primetime than does the early war arena.

the flurry of posts evidenced on this BBS is an indicator of a conflict between participants in the arena.  this is good for the arena because strife is what this type of game is all about.  where there is disagreement between people it is called contention where there is disagreement between countries it is called WAR.  eagler, quit being a pinhead, come and fight.

Without a good debate from time to time, you guys would be nothing more than a cartoon on my 6. Now, at least, I know the people that are killing me.
TC....I did not mean to say you were 100% wrong. I was saying that you may have percieved something that wasnt actually happening.....but I was not there at the time so I dont know. . I just know that there are many times it looks like you are gfetting gang banged, when, in fact there are many friendly's in the area....so it doesnt seem to be a 1 on 1 to an outsider. One thing I can say for sure......If the Avengers were in the middle of a mission at the time, we were not jumping into furballs that had nothing to do with the mission and if we were vulching, it was becuase we were on a mission to take the field in question, and we were supressing the opposition.
I know, I know....this is not what our forefathers envisioned for this arena....but like I said....We will not game the game and we will not jeopardize the integrity of the areana.....but likewise, we will not necessarily abide by the uinwritten rules set up by some of the long time veterans. This being said, we will certainly do waht we can NOT to interfere with your rules.....but if it interferes with our learning curve and our missions, this we cannot help.
Come furball night? You can rest assured that the Avengers will follow the unwriutten rules to the best of our ability.
Finally....give us a little time fellas.....getting skilled in this arena will take many sorties....not just the select few we have flown.

When you go to McDonalds and buy a cheeseburger, it doesn't mean you can go take a crap on the table because you paid for a cheeseburger.  Nor can you take off all your clothes and sing "O Sole Mio" at the top of your lungs in the restaurant just because you paid for your meal... unless we live by your credo of "it's my money I can do what I want".

Now, to the rest of the people who also paid for their food and are eating it peacefully in the restaurant, is this fair?  What do you think?  I'll admit that this scenario goes a little far, but acceptable conduct as a concept only bends so far.


OK... very poor analagy there buddy.  You pay $15 to play a game here.  A game that envolves a few things.

1) the ability to shoot down the enemy planes/gvs
2) the ability to blow up stuff on the ground
3) the ability to caprture a base

Basically they are doign what they payed for.  He is eating his burger, fried, and drinking his shake.  

You are the guy who complains because the people behind you have a 1 year old cutting teeth who is crying and runing your fine dining experience.
