Quoting the Kinks to feel superior?  :aok

You are only paranoid if no one is really after you...

I am all for silliness.  It can better without so much meanness.

Superior? You obviously don't know me, but then you're fairly new. You'll figure things out sooner or later.

My view is if you can't make fun of yourself you have no right to make fun of others. :joystick:

It just shows how weak the gaming community has become the new folks can't comprehend that, like in the arenas, respect is earned. If you don't like the "bullies" disrespecting you....don't post.

Sheesh. At least give stand some credit!! He did learn how to make big letters.  :devil

Not to be a jerk....but for what? He did defend his point of view. Was he right? That depends on who's reading it.  Do you like to watch gladiator movies?
For the record I have no real opinion here, I'm just stirring the pot.

It was self deprecating humor re: our proclivity to congratulate each other incessantly.

I find the Claim Jumpers are great at providing some much needed laughter in the arenas.  Case in point, in the MW arena, I stumbled upon 5 planes that were heading towards a friendly base.  I engage and after a very brief engagement, down all 5 Claim Jumpers and return to base.  Not a second goes by after landing, I get a PM from Cobra45 whining about my kills, think he even called me a n00b (LOL!) but refused to go to the DA with me because he was afraid he was going to 'own' me.  Lucky for me, I just bought RainX for my monitor, otherwise it would have been a pain in the bellybutton cleaning the soda off after I laughed.

Thank you Claim Jumpers for being the comic relief in the MW arena, may your antics bring more laughter.

The claim jumpers are awesome!

you guys sure can sit in a 5" and ruin the fight for everyone else!


Ruining the fight for everyone else?  Get over yourself. 

I guess letting buffs hit the CV would be not ruining it for the buff driver.  Heck, shooting down any enemy by any means ruins the fight for him. 

Not his point I don't think, and I agree with him.... sitting in a 5" gun on the CV and shooting at fighters engaged with other fighters just because one is too lazy scared to up a fighter.... that's lame. Possibly the only thing lamer than ack running at the first sign of a red icon is the guy sitting in the 5" gun trying to bust up a furball.

You wanna defend the CV? GREAT. I hate it when one of our guys sinks the CV anyway, as long as we're not badly outnumbered. As long as we're holding them at bay I say leave it up and let the fight rage for hours. If you wanna keep it from getting Lanc'ed, get in your 5" gun and have at it. You wanna shoot down fighters in a furball? Stop being chickencrap and GET IN A FIGHTER.

But, it's your $15, so by all means do what'cha wanna do. You'll be just super:aok
