Since you love him so much you take him up on his 'offer.'   :aok
Wow great sidestep. :rolleyes:
I do not think Ack Ack is a timid pilot. You do. . I can not understand why you will not take him up on his offer. Unless your fragile ego can't handle the thought of losing.
Ohh well just confirms the opinions I guess. :aok

Ohh and this has zero to do with fighting styles or preferences.  It just takes a different set of skill sets to do either successfully.

Right, you can't beat Ack Ack so you wont duel because it's not your fighting style.
Thanks suspicion confirmed.

I suppose you rather duel 999000 in the DA at 30k... it's more your style. :aok

I dont have a need to prove anything in dueling and it wouldnt prove anything anyway.

Nice how you whiners jumped in here to hijack the thread when it wasnt going your way. You boys should start flying together and quickly.

what does this line mean? We were discussing your "wish".

You don't really thing HTC would consider recoding the game so you can get your proxies from a bit farther out do you?

Your refusal is all the proof we need on who is most likely the more timid flier.

Thanks for playing. :aok

Well Fug and Bronk and the rest of you noobs should know by now that even though you try to monopolize the direction of the game you have little or no effect since you primarily like things the way they are without change. HTC at least has class (which obviously none of the bailers do) and I have to put the four of you in the same class since you condone this action.

The original wish was for the proxy range on bombers to go to 6k. The reason is because there has been a large number of bombers (since the latest changes) bail when approached. At 6k they cant tell if a dot is friendly or not and quite possibly in the time it takes him to see a dot and check his clipboard the dot would be an icon. The wish was not for more proxy kills but TO STOP BOMBERS FROM BAILING.

Somehow the four of you took that and thought 'oh gee Chalenge just wants more proxies' but NO the idea is to stop the bailers. WHY should anyone even think about launching a fighter or bomber or GV in this game and think for one instant that they could play in the main arena and not ever get shot at? Why would you condone that? If thats what they want they can have the TA or offline.

Why you would condone that? I think I need to expand my definition of the word moron because your minds go in directions only a mother could love.

Poor attempt at trying to twist things but Fugative, myself and others weren't commenting on your wish we were just refuting your lame assertion that the only good fight in the game can be found at 30,000ft.  I'm sure it can, if you're timid and all you can do is cherry pick and run at the first sign of trouble. 

If you're going to expand the definition of moron, make sure that you expand it enough to include yourself in the definition because the only moron, noob and/or dweeb in this thread is the timid guy that flies at 30,000ft trying to *cough* save fuel.

Snip
I don't care one way or the other on the proxy settings. Find a place where i did.
I just find it amusing you call Ack Ack timid and yet will not duel him.

Merriam-Webster
timid
1 : lacking in courage or self-confidence <a timid person>
2 : lacking in boldness or determination <a timid policy>

Challenge, you lack the self confidence and determination to duel Ack Ack.
There is no real loss at losing to him , so the only reason one can deduce would be you lack the self confidence to keep your pride intact.... Timidity.

Ack Ack on the other hand appears to be quite assured of the outcome. Weather he is actually the better cartoon pilot or not, he believes he is.  That is self confidence and would indeed demonstrate a lack of timidity.


Again... thanks for playing. :neener:

Well, admittedly I haven't read all these posts and I don't know where this turned against Challenge but I do think it's dweeby that buff guys can bomb and bail without consequence other than a small loss of points especially after someone spent all that time climbing to get to them.

I've climbed to 20-30K to have buff guys bail before I get within the magic 2000 yard mark and this behavior will eventually keep everyone from trying to stop high buffs.  Who's going to climb after them if they are just going to bail when you start getting close?

I don't know what the answer is but there has to be some solution to this.  I liked the idea of increasing the buff proxie range to icon range.  That seemed reasonable.  At least the buffs will have to bail when they first see a dot otherwise risk that dot getting into icon range.  As it is now they have 4000 yards with a positive ID on the bogie to decide if they are going to bail or not.  And if they do bail when they see a dot then at least it will save the fighter some amount of time climbing to a worthless target.

OK... proceed with the previous cat fight.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.
