Because he gave the players the necessary tools to do it, it's called 'Defense'.  I know, a novel concept for those that expect everything handed to them without putting forth any effort.

This was nearly one of your worst posts ever.  Nice to see you had the sense to edit out the 37mm comment. :rolleyes:

Don't blame me if the solution is simple.  If there are enemy planes attacking TT town, up some planes to drive them off.  No reason to cry to HTC for them to code it out of the game.  *shrug*

If it's already been taken at 4 in the morning it's a little hard to defend for some of us.   :rolleyes:

HTC gave us a protected TT/FT before, no reason for everyone to get all bent outta shape.

Thats funny cause I'd have to look all over the map to find a Rook who cares about TT. Most of all last night when weren't weren't grabbing bases anywheres. But, I signed off at 2300 CST so who knows what happened overnight?

And who cares? I can remember signing in and seeing every Dar at ever Rook TT base taken down. Which means some mope spent the better part of an hour shooting down every dar on the Island. :huh And with the side switchers who switch sides like socks its kinda stupid to blame Rooks in the first place. In fact it was probably scoe 'ho Bish or Nit side switchers looking for easy perks.

I dont know any regular full time Rook who gives a darn about TT.

Not to refute your entire response, but: I'd say the majority of people who side switch are the LEAST likely to want to ruin TT.  Usually the cartoon real estate types are the ones to grief everyone by taking TT and are also usually the type to take the chess piece country icon more seriously.

Just my 2 cents.

Tank town should be treated as any other base type on the map.  If tank town is important to folks though, I would highly recommend that those who find it important spend time defending it.  It matters little to me one way or another.

best reply in the thread  :aok  :salute that's just how i feel about it. If someone takes something from you......take it back. Bish on a friday nite roll can wipe that island up in two hours. :salute

I brought some gram crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate bars.  S'mores should be done in a minute. ;)

Seriously folks, if it is in the process of being taken, defend it.  If it has already been taken, take it back.  Simple.  Stop :cry  to Hitech about how TT gets rolled by one side, or the other, and defend it or take it back.  Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

Anaxagoras, its like this - the game is all about The Hate. The object of the game is to piss the enema off as much as possible. Once your enema realize you will be pissed off by taking TT, well, you've made your bed.

Unfortunately, The Hate has been weak in this new generation of players, though they are strong in the ways of The Whine.

I don't do it.  I don't condone it.  (Taking TT bases.)  I agree with you, it's pretty lame.




















But I sure do find it funny the same thread shows up every week or two.    :rofl
