That's not what HT was saying (yes I sound like a cheerleader but entertain what I'm suggesting for a sec). He's saying that what they ask and what they want aren't always the same thing.  Knowing the workings of the game arguably by heart, it's not hard to solve for the rest of the equation: what the players' demands are really getting at. 
Whether his interpretation and judgement is more or less perfect, and whether it's feasible or possible to have it all under control is another story.

My god!  Moot is really Robert Gibbs, the White House Press Secretary!  He's been answering questions the exact same way for the past five months and nobody has figured out what he's said yet.

"What you want isn't what we want you to have. Or knowing about the birds and bees, arguably by heart, running the auto industry is something we can do.  Whether the President's interpretation and judgement is more or less perfect in his mind, and whether it's feasible to declare himself the supreme leader is another story."

Hey HT himself said the object is to piss the other guy off right? Giving a milk runner cause to run back home pointless is a good way to do that,and I was hoping for a fight.

Well, I would argue that anyone "LOOKING FOR A FIGHT" realistically knows they won't find it with toolshedders, so my point is you were just trolling looking to put a burr under someones saddle :aok And then seeking comunity VALIDATION for it  :aok  I suspect your fun meter will increase if you stop seeking out these one sided encounters, and just let them do what they want. At the very least, it was a very poor place to try and find a fair fight! Might even smell of "hunting easy kills"   :rofl :rofl    :uhoh

Sad thing is, Mid-War is actually  the most balanced and most enjoyable period from an aircraft standpoint.

SOAR have been called out numerous times. On top of their actions is their deplorable behavior. I've heard the same from most folks that have commented on it to me. Pluto is a joke for his constant ignorance of how the game works, calling folks hackers for not understanding how he died, how they didn't die (when he never hit them) making up facts such as "I shot off half your surfaces and you killed me!" [when in fact he scored a glancing hit with no damage]. Some of his squadmates are equally as abusive, and have intimated folks can leave the arena if they have a problem with the way SOAR run things there.

EWA should be shut down. I used to think MWA as well, but have since come to believe it can/should be retained.

back when i used to fly ew a lot, i fought with, and against pluto. i've won and lost against him. never once had a problem with the guy.

When this whole "Arena Split" happened.   A lot of us stayed in the EW arena for about 5-6 months, until the Scorepotatos came in.   Some of the best fights happened at that time.   

Oh well. 

was some good fights back then now just score hores

I flew in the EW arena last night and I had a blast. It was one of the best times I have had playing this game. The EW needs just a few more regulars...After a while there is just no one flying in there at all.
This is a test

No.  They don't.  They have an Early Milk arena.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

yaknow, if ya go in there, and try to fight them, and teach em, rather than just belittle them, you might just have a little fun.

I find a lot of enjoyment in hunting down players who are doing their best to avoid combat.  Don't you see the irony?  The one thing they fear most is going out of its way to find them.  Nothing tops it off though without a great PM rant.

It worked for me.  Instead of ragging on them for milk running, I took off to fight them and had a blast.  The only downside was xlaks earlier in the day but I resolved that by beating the crap out of him.

The irony I see is just the opposite! The folks who consistently chime in about wanting fights, while hunting those that don't want to fight  :rolleyes:  <----Now that is IRONIC  :aok
