Excessive AFK in tower

[angelsandair]

So you are whining about ENY because?

In blue, our ENY limit is always 20+ in Orange, Rooks and Knits have less than 5.

[Masherbrum]

Wow, thank you all for the responses (even the sarcastic ones).   

I'll try to clarify a bit.
 1) WHY I CARE:  as i understand it, the intended purpose of ENY is for game balance and it seemed it was not achieving that effect
       under the situation at hand last night.
 2) i usually fly the jug, so the assumption that I always fly perkies or late war is false.
       to be fair, at that time i was considering a late war ride and was disappointed I didn't have the option given the number
       of folks participating on my country.
 3) switching sides does not allow me to fly with my squadmates
       during low numbers conditions (possibly even moderate numbers) if the squad switches, the issue transfers
 4) the time could be 2 hours instead of one... i was just supplying a starting point
 5) the timer counter for "inactivity" could occur at the PC side, not the server side so it doesn't have to cause a server load
       a) in addition, it could reset with any input to the game (move view, open menu, keyboard tap, etc)
       b) if someone comes up with an elaborate way to bypass this idea, then it is obviously important to them and more power to em
           option: buy a drinking bird to tap the keyboard every so often
             (Image removed from quote.)
 6) THANK YOU for the detail on getting perks up to 12 hrs after logged off; I was personally not aware of that, I wonder if some of the
     folks extended AFK were also not aware;
 7) I understand the frustration on not being able to get back into a particular arena; but (I think) excessive inactivity deserves a "boot"
     to allow other players to enter the arena, as a minimum

You "conveniently" skipped over a solution.    1.) your whole squad can change arenas.   But I believe you are one of THREE WINGS of RollingThunder, so it's your own fault, not ours or HTC's.  

Your picture must one of yourself, except there should be tears coming out of it.   (You were attempting to be sarcastic with it's posting, I'm not being sarcastic).   You would have been taken a bit more serius until you posted it.   But, you reap what you sew.  

You DON'T UNDERSTAND the frustration, you just want AH to be played "your way".    I'm sorry but you fail to include "those in the tower" as being shot down at that particular moment.

Wrong.    Show proof.   I have been on the Bish side IN BLUE and flying a 38J or L (20 ENY).   I have NEVER been affected by the ENY, never.   I don't care what side I am on.   

We have a TON of accusations between Jarbo and Yourself, but no proof.   Take SS's of these "numbers" and continue it only then.

Sorry karaya but i think YOU are completely missing the point.

If you are trying to get a big "atta boy" for:

1. flying high eny planes OR
2. jumping countries at will

then ATTA BOY!!!!!  YOU ROCK!!!!

but if you are like the majority of people in here who fly with friends and enjoy flying ANY plane at ANY time then you are posting dumb stuff.

Have fun fighting a noe with your p38j bud...last time corkyjr did it we got to see how successful it is.  Have fun trying to stay alive to kill m3s when you are outnumbered in your p47.

I mean you and steve are posting like newbs that have no concept of the changing situations and dynamics of the game.  You are pretending that even though a country may have a numerical advantage they may have ended up in a a situation where they are flying against similar numbers.

So quit insulting guys who have valid points and actually enjoy a debate that doesn't require insults.

Sorry Falcon.   I have never cared about "getting atta boy's".   Never have, never will, you should know this about me as I have flown with the BoP's on MANY OCCASIONS.   

I offered simple solutions to the problem approached in the first post of this thread.   It resulted in a "picking and choosing" type of response by Jarbo.  I posted no picture, he did.   He responded like a kid, I treated him like a kid. 

In closing, do you see me EVER and I mean ever post on 200 "The Bish have the most numbers!!!"     No, you don't, because it won't change anything, just like the "concept of punting players" won't change anything.   It only opens doors you will never get shut.   

I'll embrace any and all of the blame, but we all know I won't start a whine thread about a damn thing in here.    I will have fun doing what I have been doing for 6+ years, having fun, cracking jokes on 200 and with countrymates (regardless of the chess piece).   I'm not missing anything, I see the Bish on Monday's and Tuesdays have over 160 on the roster, while around 100 of each Rooks and Knights are on.   But, you don't see me coming in here and making a fuss about it?    You don't see me berating anyone on 200 about it? 

<<S>> from your dumb "friend".

What a wuss.... I hope you truly ARE insulted!


Helm ...out

 You don't see me berating anyone on 200 about it? 

But you seem to enjoy doing it to everybody on every thread on the forums.

[morfiend]

P-39D is a great turner with most regular MA turners if you know what you're doing.

 Masher: did you miss this!!! I can't believe you let this slide.....

  Do you know what your doing????...

I'm not.   I offered solutions, as did Steve.   Both of which were glossed over in the hopes "they would just agree with us wanting more perks per kill."   

[angelsandair]

But you made them as rude as you possibility could instead of a slight suggestion.

Wrong.   Now you are hijacking this thread.    Next time, try a little harder.   

[angelsandair]

If I have to go afk for 30 minutes to go to the store, it's MY CHOICE.   Not yours, or anyone else's.   What I am sick to death of, are these plague ridden threads that should not have even been started in the first place.   

You have three choices that you failed to mention.   1.)  Switch Countries or 2.) Switch arenas with your squad (I am eliminating your use of that excuse on #1) or 3.) Log off. 

So this is very very polite?

[Masherbrum]

Yes, so stop hijacking the thread.   

[Banshee7]

All i see on the boards these days is a lot of  over how the game is unfair and unjust and WAAAAAAAH.

But i do agree with Karaya

[angelsandair]

Yes, so stop hijacking the thread.   

It seems you cant even own up to what you're doing. I'd suggest refering back to your posts.
