now deja... don't get all defensive on me here... My comment applied to all stats in general.
Oh really.. even this one?:
drex jumped in the la7 and had a 5 kill sortie first time out... drex is not listed as a top la7 stick
Seems like a direct reference to the top 10 killers by plane stats to me. But I must just be reading into things again.. just as the 10 people posting after me did.
Looking at the stats you would see one pilot with a very good K/D ratio and another with a worse K/D in the same plane. Who is better in that plane?
Wow.. I thought this wasn't about the stats I generated. There is a listing of killers by plane somewhere else? Of course, this has been discussed at length elsewhere prior to the stats even coming out.
But feel free to tout the prowess of your squadie whenever you want. Just don't get too upset when people point out you are doing it. I know I've never seen Drex on the forums doing it, so can I assume he appointed you as his media lackey?
The truth is, people's abbilities are evident withouth any stats. I know drex is awesome in a D25 because I've faught him in it and he kicked my bellybutton (well.. maybe not kicked but he did win). Those actions speak louder than any words or numbers. They also speak louder than you coming in here and tooting his horn.
Stats don't mean anything except to the person who is making em.
Oh.. come on lazs, who is getting defensive/offensive here. The truth is, they mean exactly what they were presented as. They mean that those pilots scored the most kills in those aircraft.
You're the one that seems to have a problem with that. I can't help but wonder why. Coming in and saying "Drex woulda lead in a cheesy plane like the La-7 if he woulda flown it" is insulting to everyone on the La-7 list (yes I know you were there too) and it is using a classy pilot's name to do it. That is both petty and in bad taste.
By the way, as mentioned in another reply, Drex would have lead (or been close to it) in virtually any plane he chose to fly. Nobody doubts that. What is in doubt is why you would chose to bring it up.
I do find it kinda amusing tho when someone trys to figure out another players skill level by looking at his score or a particular stat.
And I'm trying to see where that was done. To be honest, I don't. So, what I find amusing is when someone says something like this without it having occured. Once again, a term like "defensive" comes to mind.
