Dead Pilot no longer on line?

[Chalenge]

Its hard to salute when your dead.

[Getback]

Might just have been a simple case of "Wife Ack"

Skyrock owns wife ack! Hey wait that didn't sound good. 

[ColKLink]

I can speak for just myself on this issue. When I'm thinking........  "ya know "I oughtta do something today"......I like to land a few kills then check out,....but if I get killed, thats usually the way I end up the session. Kilt....log.....on to something constructive around here. I believe that is a little more accurate than the "plug pulling".

Besides, only the winner gives a salute. 

Thats not true Del.  You and Pawz shoot me down all the time.   I always salute when it's a good fight....win or lose.

[Scca]

Another possibility is the spelling.  For example if you are trying to <S> "pielet" it could be spelled p1elet, piel1t or p1e1et.  The number 1 and the lower case L's and lower case I's all look the same in the radio text bar..

Gixer?   

Very astute observation.

[Zazen13]

I sometimes log-off immediately to watch the film, particularly if it was a memorable fight against someone I know or if there was a move performed I want to dissect. If I wait I forget to watch it usually.

I do the oposite. I salute those who shoot me down (if it was a clean fight). I ofcourse salute back if the guy i kill salutes me. I feel that it is up to the victim to salute me if he feels i flew well.

I agree.

I'll salute for a good fight/effort win or lose, I realise it may look like rubbing it in if I win but I'm saluting for the fight not the result. probably better to type gf on 200 but I hardly ever tune it, chances are the other guy isnt tuned either.

[SHawk]

I really hate it when some twit Salutes me after Bombing me in a GV or killing me with a manned ack or some other really challenging effort on his or her part.(usually 2,3,4 or more on 1) Of course it's rare that I'll get a Salute from someone that just got their butt kicked with Alt, E, spixteen,LaLa or 5 friends.

I only salue if I win!

Same here. (I'm usually the victim anyway). I do send salutes though to victims if it's obvious they're beginners. Not gloating, just telling the new guy I salute his effort.

Of course it's rare that I'll get a Salute from someone that just got their butt kicked with Alt, E, spixteen,LaLa or 5 friends.

Been down that road too many times to count  , and everytime it's <S> SHawk.

(except for the last time when you HO'd my 262 with your CHog. Couldn't see the keyboard for the tears )

[SkyRock]

Lately I have shot down several pilots and wanted to send a  only to receive the popup "YADA YADA is no longer online" This a new tactic? Pull the plug so you don't suffer the pangs of death? Maybe it was a freak but last night(early this morning) I shot down a pielet - good stick and great fight, IMO, sent an immediate and poof, not online.  I know I type slow but jeez...
Just asking if anyone else has seen this... ?

maybe you misspelled their name.

[crims]

I know for me, If its my last ride I die then Log. No need to hang around.
