There is a squad on the rook side that says:
"We don't defend bases, we just capture undefended ones".
Honest, I was on the map at one point and was winging with them. I saw bases getting taken one by one and I'm like hey guys!!! They're coming to (insert number here) base!! We just took it, looks like it's going to be a great fight. Let's defend it! The leader of the 'group' then came on the channel vox explaining to me that they will do no such thing, as they are an ('aggressive' or 'on the offense type' grouping - read 'we take undefended bases because we don't know how to fly).
I liked flying with them because I do like missions and such sometimes, but that was just too much. And I have known that said person for quite a while. He's by no means a rookie.
Seems like the squad that this guy is in is similar. Nothing wrong with that thought, just not my cup of tea.
