Excessive AFK in tower

[Masherbrum]

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

No need, you've lost all ground for your "argument".   The next step in the manual would be to "deflect attention from the original purpose of the thread and start personal attacks."   This was already done by Jarbo and another poster.

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 can fly any plane, ANY time.  Switch sides. You'll make even more friends and always have someone to wing with, on a low ENY country. If you are limiting your flying because certain freinds or squads only fly on one team, ENY isn't the problem, your narrow scope of friends is. 

I fly the 51D because(insert your insulting reason here, but I've heard them all)  and I NEVER deal with ENY.

I fly for the team with the lowest numbers, whomever they are.  I don't do this because I'm some morally superior guy who wants to help the underdog. I do this because if you fly on the team with the lowest numbers, you can always find a fight with plenty of targets and you won't find yourself squabbling with 3 or 4 other guys for one gang kill.  Also, I never saw the thrill of orbiting a base with a horde of friends, then diving on some brave upper w/ 8 others to hope for a kill.

This is "slot camping" and is a direct result
of the arena split and lower arena player limits.

Players are tired of not being able to enter
the arena that their squads and friends operate
in so they camp the slot they have in that arena.

Problem solved.

I have to agree in some respects to this. I feel bad for the new guy who is just trying to learn in his 5 eny plane of choice, but then i again i have sat in the tower just chatting with squadies havin a good time. I mostly fly 109's anyways so this doesnt really affect me too much anyways unless its over 20 and i cant up B24's to kill with my lazer 50 cals(that is rare tho). Just my opinion tho.

It seems you are loosing yours. My argument is still the same, keeping people who are just trying to get extra perkies from making the ENY higher.

Maybe if you cussed less and spelled words correctly, you'd be taken a bit more serious.   Go play pick-up-stix with your younger brother.

Rude and as immature as his post.


It seems that you are just proving my point every time you speak up. Do everybody a favor and just quit trying to flame on this thread.

That's definitely not rude.  It's truthful.

If they are sitting in a tower waiting on perkies that would imply they think a reset is imminent. Your country is winning, probably by having higher numbers. And no body is sitting in the towers of the opponent countries.

As there is always a certain percentage of people not "In flight" even in countries getting their butts kicked, and ENY is kicking in for you meaning a your country population is unbalanced in your favor...............Your excuses don't wash. You want the bestest with the mostest. You got your favorite toy taken away and come in here and cry about the unfairness of it all. Take your squad and move to a different country that hardly ever has to deal with ENY. Your ENY problem will be solved.

Iove watching the forum HTC fanboy  hord in action..

always the same ashholes, using the same excuses.. but yet can apply it to any subject at will.. be it a suggestion for adding a plane, or make a change to the game. the same gaggle of nitwits and dickheads crawl out of the woodwork and start the basing...
its like being a biologist watching aemoeba split.

There really should be an award for people like you 

Starting one just for you would prolly set the bar too high for anyone else to ever have a shot at it so it would be a one time thing

Take things less serious and you will live longer

I didn't read all the posts so forgive me if someone's alread pointed this out but, lets say the average sortie is 15 minutes.  Afterward, the guy who just ended that sortie looks around the map to see what he wants to do next, goes and grabs a beer and makes a stop in the bathroom, then looks around the map again before he goes to the hanger to change planes, check ord, check convergences, etc. and takes back off.  It's reasonable to expect he was not "in flight" for 5 minutes.  If this were true of everyone, then 25% (5 of 20 minutes) of all players would not be in flight at any given moment.

5 minutes might be stretching it but you get the point.

And has been pointed out (but has probably been lost in the shuffle of insults volleying back and forth) if HTC were to set up an auto-logout feature, then anyone who is inclined to hang around in the tower for any length of time now will simply launch a vehicle at some VERY out of the way place. 

So your "fix" for the problem would just drive it a little further underground, without "fixing" anything.

I never noticed the %Waiting on the country status page.  It's 0 in all of Lusche's screen shots.  What is this "%Waiting"?
