Shades and CV control
« on: April 13, 2009, 02:16:25 PM »
I don't normally post about BS, but this was just beyond stupid. Today around 245 pm EST we had TG120 off P113 engaging the P113 CV at point blank range. The CV group had been decimated - no cruiser left, ALL guns on the CV destroyed - and we were in a tail chase finishing the job. Some sweetheart takes control of our CV, turns it 180* in the opposite direction, knowing full well what the intent of the CV being placed in that position was to begin with.

Seriously guys, if you got 2 accounts - who are you kidding? Its a game - play it fairly.

And how do you know the sweetheart wasn't just a sweetheart but a shade?

It's getting out of hand isn't it?

The other night, my CO popped in to find 4 CV's in a tight group way off in the upper corner of the map....next to a base.....where bombers were upping en masse.

Yeah buddy, good plan.  :aok

seeing the CV usage leads me to believe a lot of people are sitting in front of their computer wearing a football helmet or some other protective head gear.

It was a shade with a high enough rank to take command of the cv....

Seems like a lot of work for just a shade.

Actually, if you think about it, anyone can start up a new shade on a 2 weeker--come in with an initial score of 0 and take command of any cv they want.  Then, chuck the shade and start a new one the next weekend.  Not exactly rocket science.   :lol

In cases like these, it is best to ask SHawk or some of the higher ranking fellows very nicely to take control of the cvs and keep control until it is out of danger. Of course, this only really works with the rooks.

True enough. But for those of us who were there, it was twittle'd up enough to warrant this post.

Once came on and almost every bish cv was being controlled by some one with a rank of 0. All I did for about 2 hours was take one cv away from these guys after another. Like others have said, you have to have some one with any rank at all hold the cv.

Is this....

A. Less ghey than someone with a good rank switching sides to move a CV so a base can be taken.
B. More ghey than someone with a good rank switching sides to move a CV so a base can be taken.
C. 42
D. Equally ghey to someone with a good rank switching sides to move a CV so a base can be taken.
To each their pwn.

First off rank should start at some arbitrary number, like 10,000, not zero.

Anyone caught doing such games should be virtually tarred and feathered.
The problem is that doing so just leads to more of the same, and more shades.
