Unofficial Trainers - Read This Please

[Ranger45]

Hey, back on track, thanks Battfink.

Hopefully them other guys will take there bull else where.

[BaldEagl]

For the record I'm always willing to help someone out although I'm probably not much of a teacher.  Been flying since '96 and I don't lose too many 1 on 1's regardless of plane match-up but I'm not one of the elite.

About all I'll offer is that we can go to the DA, you can record and if I beat you you can watch the film to see how it happened.

PM me in the MA as I've tried scheduling these things before and I never seem to remember or something comes up or...

I do like to 1 on 1 in the DA just for fun though so maybe this would be a way to get me there more often.  In fact, if any of you elite guys want to DA with me I'd appreciate that as well.  Maybe I'd pick up a few things.

[Bosco123]

Dude you stated earlier that you sent your videos in to prove that you didn't need help from your squadies, I am sure those videos will suffice.

No from KOTH, I don't send my MA films to fuzeman
<S>
BK, your going to tell me somthing that I do, when that all you do in KOTH, I had to try and beat you picking me in the Yak9-U that we had. Course I got lucky and you ran out of feul.
Sorry guys, I am nothing like TonyJoey or Cmustard, I like Tony, but me and him are just about equal, and I thought that someone said somthing that those two are "Advanced".
BldEagle, that one is from last month, if you read the topic it says "June KOTH results" I won July KOTH.
Like I said I didn't want to Gloat at all, and I knew that this would turn up in my face just like the it is now. Too late to change it now, shoulda never posted it. I just wanted to help people, Like I always have done.

Bighorn domin and batfink taught me how to fly nuff said

You must have me mixed up with someone else.  I never said anything about KOTH.

[TonyJoey]

Roflmao If Bosco toots his own horn in here any more its gonna crap out and he will need to by a new one. As far as I'm concerned Cmustard/F4Ujunky TonyJoey and Bosco all fly the same timid BnZ style that they call "E" fighting. Each one of them are dog meat on the deck in an actual turn fight.

On a different note, winning KOTH means jack snot lol all it shows for some one of Mustards or Boscos skill level is that they know how to skirt the edges of the fight and manipulate the rules. The logs from the last Friday KOTH aren't posted yet but Im willing to bet I had more kills then both Bosco and Cmustard had because I was actually fighting and hunting the cocky squeakers down instead of trying to win, I even missed I think 2 or 3 rounds of the event. I do feel bad for Fuze though, Friday KOTH has turned into a baby sitting job instead of a hosting job.

lol You've fought me twice..in KOTH and you already assume how I fly, and you know what assumpions make out of you...and me for that matter.     Would love to have a 1v1 with ya as I think it would be a fun fight.

[TonyJoey]

Bosco123 is telling us before it is posted officially in the KOTH forums that he is the winner of last Fridays KOTH. that has to be the only KOTH I can think of him winning.
Is TonyJoey a Bosco123 anklehumper? I heard through the Grapevine that TonyJoey was possibly a up and coming good stick that might make some of the older vet flyers proud. I hope he does not go down the wrong road here.
Bosco123, it looks like TC offered you a chance to let him take you in to the Dueling Arena and give you your "Check Ride" to see if you could teach anything. That is what I get by reading it.
You say you will "PAWN"  me , I would be intrigued to see if you can stand behind your claims of teaching energy Fighting and your claim of "PAWNING" me.

If you beat me, I will change my username to "KickedByBosco"  if I beat you you have to change your name to "Mighty01's Number1 anklehumper"    you go the cahauna's Bro?
I fyou teach me anything, I promise to come here and tell all without shame. If I teach you some things, you promise to do the same.


oh look, Husky01 has showed up, the one who taught Bosco123 how to do KOTH

Again someone assuming something just because I like flying with a certain person. I even wear a badge saying "I am humble"   . Please don't stereotype me because I befriend a certain person and like to wing up together.

And a Huge to batfink and TC as I have had some of the longest and most fun fights ever against them. I don't consider myself advanced as I have been mopped all over the floor by some truly "advanced" sticks, but I almost always will give them a good fight, and improve from every fight.

salute back at you joey always enjoy our fights. Oh and i think you can definitely put that as 'begginer to advanced'. Intemediate for me would be able to do a clean rolling scissors and learning to handle the planes below stall speed. Advanced is being able to link what you have learned into one fluid fighting style that defines you. Expert is learning other people's styles to beef up your own.

Maybe, but Tonyjoey is much different that cmouseturd. I am not real sure of his flying skills but Tonyjoey rode along with me on a flight and I found the kid to be pleasant and enjoyable to be around. He tagged along as a wing for a couple of flights after that and I experienced more of the same.

Husky, I'd fly with 10 TonyJoeys before I'd fly w/ one cmouseturd, even if mouseturd was the kingpoop of AHII.

[Husky01]

Completely agree 100% with you.

Always a pleasure to cartoon plane fight against you TonyJoey.....~SALUTE~...........I was not sure the first time we ran into each other in koth....I was assuming it was a new shade account,    then we fought and I was very satisfied and happy to have found another player who fights for the fight and not for the name in lights.......  I think fuzeman told me or maybe AKDogg that you was a youngster ( in your teens perhaps )  if this is so....then the future looks a little bit brighter for Aces High ........

heya batfink,  I don't mean to hijack this thread, but someone asked for that film to be hosted again  in the following thread, sir.
http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,211375.50.html
if you don't mind  ....if you get it hosted, Thank You in advance, bat


~SALUTE~

[fuzeman]

I'm 99% sure I uploaded July FriKOTH log as I have top killers on my paper to list when results are posted.
Bosc0123 did win July FriKOTH and BearKats did have the most kills of anyone in that KOTH with 11.
Although I don't frequent the TA as much as usual, when I'm there and not pointing out the rules to the clueless, I'm most willing to help anyone who asks. By no means am I elite or way above average but I have my days and with the Trainer experience I find helping people a habit I can't seem to break. Mostly its easy stuff, such as telling them certain commands and where to find the printable list of them, showing a manual takeoff or a landing or two.

I remember this idea coming up way back when Schatzi was still flying and just before she was invited to be an official Trainer. Just how to make them semiofficial was tough regarding what powers they should have etc. Believe me without full Trainer privileges, training at times can be tough and frustrating in there when you come across a band of malcontents who try to break every rule in the book and cause problems. Just pointing out the rules to some folk make you a BIG target for their abuse.
I'm sure Murdr shudders at times when he sees another email from me

As TC indicated, HTC and the Trainers have been communicating for awhile about the direction of future plans for training.  I think we're ok in that regard.

Something that could really help in the way of disseminating information about BFM, game mechanics, and aircraft, is getting more knowledgeable contributors involved in AHWiki.  I basically stopped flying for awhile to make time for contributing in the pre-launch setup.  We just don't have the extra time as a group to take advantage of its capibilities.  Actually, there is even potential to provide the kind of player information that was asked for via the ahwiki user pages. 

I was trainer for a very long time both formally and informally. I'm not sure I'd have the patience for it anymore in my old age. But, I do enjoy doing writeups, especially for the intermediate to advanced level. Several of my "guides" are floating around out there. If there's a need for one on a particular topic I'm probably going to be up for it...I've always given blanket permission to HTC to use my stuff however they please as my contribution to the community.

[Masherbrum]

I have too much self-respect to get into pissing matches.   As Steve said a few pages ago, this was a good idea and it was ruined by some egotistical "I'm better than some of you because I won KOTH or what else allows some folks to sleep at night.)   Bosco123, before you post or reply, I'm not just talking about yourself, you're just one of the examples.   KOTH doesn't mean a damn thing in this game.   

I've always said that this Community fractured around the Summer of 2005.   I'm correct and it is a damn shame that some cannot even enter an intellectual discussion on equal terms.   One always has "to be the sierra hotel stick".   It is so cookie cutter lately.   The ONLY time I'll get sarcastic if someone "wants the B-29, another duplicate ride added, help us lower ENY that we wanted in the first place, but now all we do is post threads whining about it", type crap you see polluting the BBS.   

I'm blunt, to the point and can get so precise in a discussion, that some cannot handle it.   I have no horn to toot because I despise hypocrisy and/or someone who is morally bankrupt.   

I could name "sticks" that would be above Advanced above 97% of those who play this game and some who posted in this thread, wouldn't even come close to them.   Even relative "unknowns" like Vati66, Duedel (who is still the best I've ever seen in a 109 of any type), Ripsnort, MiG, and many others could hand everyone their arse before they even realized what happened.   The only one I've seen on in the last year is MiG.  The others stay locked in my memory as some of the best fights I've ever had in over 6 years of playing this game.

For those wondering about F4uJunky, he IS CMustard and should never have even come up in this thread.
