It's a FUGGIN' GAME people, now keep both hands where I can see them and step away from the keyboard.
Seriously folks, All of us (yes me too, sorry paintmaw, didn't know I was gonna scar ya for life) need to bear in mind that this ain't real, it's a mere game, a leisure pursuit, And one that, IMHO, does not require the trashtalk imparted by sports to be fun, I for one will never consider another player to be better in real life at anything simply because of their performance in pixel manipulation version aces high, It don't translate to reality. We're good guys, we're bad guys, we're all dweebs, we all suck,(your mileage may vary) but we all do this to have fun, I personally hate Chogs and will needle the guy who shoots me down with one, same for niki's, but in truth, I'm just picking at 'em, I screwed up and they got a kill, fact. I've blown some of the best guys running outta the sky, and had the rankest newbie nail me, refresh your memory, most likely so have you.
Concessions to gameplay are not worth the effort to complain about, rather if you have a better mousetrap, show it. As for the touchstone of this little spat, I don't change countries, Loyalty? honor? roadkill, I'm lazy. I don't care about that crap, I fly, die,protect the green ones, shoot the red ones, and log out if I'm getting pissed off, 'cuz I don't pay anyone to get pissed off (Got married for that, it's free, and yes that's a joke)
Relax, shoot the red guys, and keep the shiny side up

Cyas in the <virtual> air.
