For some reason or another, every time I go AFK for an extended period of time I'm usually disco'd anyway.
same here. One day GumNuts left his tank half way between two contested bases for about 12 hours. Surprised he didn't get killed.
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.

You are over analyzing the game rod (and your insults are ridiculous too). Most of those guys in the tower are waiting for the ENY to come down (probably) or just reading the BBS while the ENY is too high for their favorite planes. Waiting in the tower for reset? Thats reading a little too much into it I think. Probably if it ever was changed the same guys would just log back in right away. This has been asked for before by the way (next time try doing a search) and never has it been added.

lol donk your talking about something u have no clue on. knights reset midwar every day. so some rooks and bish just log on as nit and never fly. not 1 sortie ever.  and 3 of said people never flown sortie in midwar in 3 tods. they just in tower hoping for reset 25perks. and its not just 1 day its everyday. LTnoob who flys bish in every arena can be found afk in midar knight side. when hes not playing. and many others to.

What's the benefit of being able to sit in the tower doing nothing? I mean NOTHING. Even VOX transmissions could be used to show activity and not boot them.

The difference here is that someone remaining logged on but not actively playing affects other people. For me personally, it fits in the "I don't care" category, but I certainly understand where it comes from. I would be interested in hearing why some of those who are opposed to it take that position.

Perhaps what you're really trying to say is 29.

In all, almost 20 switched, sending the ENY IIRC, to around 30.   

This is a good wish and I am one of those afk'ers.

So what rod is saying is that the noobs go to the team that is about to reset the map just for the perks? And rod is whining that he cant win the map and get his perks? Its not about perks guys... remember? When the eny goes high just move to another country.

This is all about failure to perform and you know I am right or rod would not be resorting to insults. Customers that get booted offline usually stop playing altogether.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Karaya, I think the ENY limit is 29, sir.  :)

ENY should stay.  It does exactly what it was designed to do


Hey that's real classy, , people are gaming it.
Knowing Karaya very well, I believe his motive for doing such was to piss people like yourself off.  Apparently, whether you were there or not, he succeeded.  Way to go on the loss!
