I asked said player.

He said JU was for Junker, as in JU-88/87 etc.

Just because he reports what he's been told, doesn't mean he believes it.

JUKiller as a name I'd give the player the benefit of the doubt, as it COULD (and does) stand for Junker.  I have a squaddie that goes by DieAZ, and to someone that didn't play Air Warrior, that could be considered DieAsians.

It's all about the context.

Granted, I wouldn't want that as a bumper sticker anymore than I would want "Hog Rider" when I park my car near a Jenny Craig, as both can be misunderstood by those that don't play "airplane" like we do.

Then I recall that "someone" has already said that "pissing people off" is one of the primary goals of the game community in AH2.

I am sure that that certain "someone" will not allow "hate" people/groups to thrive in Aces High, nor was the context of that statement, when it was made, condoning this type of behavior.

This issue should really have been handled via email to support@hitechcreations.com.

There is really no point in debate.  What is done with questionable ID's is purely up to the disgression of HTC.  All a player has the ability do is bring an ID to HTC's attention via email/phone, and/or use the .report tool.

You know, I agree that some of these names really are offensive and have no place here in AH2....  Then I recall that "someone" has already said that "pissing people off" is one of the primary goals of the game community in AH2.

Is it just me, or are the two concepts difficult to separate?

Yes...it's just you. Since the intent of the 2nd is to pissoff people within the rules of the game. The 1st is obviously outside the rules.

It is interesting that you would take a statement totally out of context and attempt to apply it to a totally unrelated situation. Are you a news reporter? :D

Well, it hasn't done so in the last 18. I can remember folks doing the same in AW on Genie back in 1990. They could create an account on Friday night and not be charged for it until Monday morning. Dweebs used to love to come in and do this kind of tripe.

Not sure guys, help me out here. Doesn't a CPID have to be approved by the folks at HT first?? So shouldn't they have shot these down before they ever reached the community?

Ok, I'll bite. Why not?

Business.
Download the game on Friday night, then wait till your CPID gets approved on Monday without being able to play during the whole weekend is hardly a good idea to get new customers.
Or HTC would have to pay someone to check new CPID's 24/7. Considering how little abuse like the one mentioned in this thread is actually done, it's not worth the effort (&money!).

Your a dope. I stick with my original statement to you on this subject.


Until recently, I've rode for many years and I bet the bumper sticker Hog Rider would sell and get you laid.
