Being able to move it is ok as is. The ability to take control, ie Command it, is the issue. As discussed in many other threads, having to be connected to the cv either in gun or plane is a good way to remedy the situation.

I like that idea.  You can control a cv without being attached to it,  but to take it away, or retain control over someone's attempt to control it, you have to be attached to it.  That would deliver the best of both worlds.

I said it before when someone takes control of the cv they should be restricted to the bridge with F3 or F5 modes to look around for threats. If the person jumps in any vehicle plane, LVT, PT whatever he automaticaly loses command. Unless someone can give me an occurance when "Bull Halsey" said ..............(squeeeker voice) "IM BORED" and jumped in the nearest F4 and flew away to battle the japanese??

People who pay for this online experience should not have to put up with this guy pushing us over the fun cliff, to boost his twisted ego. This guy will make you want to cancel your subscription. Paying customers need protection from his childish antics. I vote for Throw The Bum Out on grounds of Unreasonable Behavior.  I call it Control Freak - ism and I for one don't come to Aces High for that type of experience. This is not a small matter to me this dude is way way out of line consistently. No one should abuse CV control and hit the brakes on fun like he's a Rock Star CV God Hero. I'm not buying It. Who ever is in command of the Fleet if gets SUNK, the Captain should "GO DOWN WITH THE SHIP". In this case the CV and not be able to leave the fleet until it respawns. After all with COMMAND comes RESPONSIBILITY. aka dBrose of Kung Fu Flying

While this is true, as evidenced by my own rank. I'm more interested in creating a solution for an obvious problem, not debating the merrits of the ranking system. Maybe a timeout system could be put into place where if you didnt fire the gun within X amount of time, you where automatically thrown out of it.

Kostic

not to hijack, but from what i've seen of your flying, your good rank is due to good flying.

lmao@(Image removed from quote.)  :rofl

Im partial to this one

Anyway, making somebody stay attached to the cv will in some cases stop this kind of behavior but whats to say the guy stays in the tower on the cv then just goes afk for 6 hours. Maybe a time limit or something!

Indeed. It shouldn't be too hard to code so that Player X has to be attached to or in flight from CV XYZ to have command of it.

Why do you think it's mostly Rooks who ask for it on here? :P
