I was also absent for the mass reporting and some of the silliness involved in recent FSO's.
To that end, all I ask is this: Please do not paint all Claim Jumpers with the same brush. Just look at the sheer number of players in the squad. We are evidently very diverse in both our skill levels and opinions.
To me, this is like when people complain about being bombed when they're in tank town. Sure it sucks to get bombed when you're trying to worry about enemy tanks, but it is all a part of the game. The game is called "Aces High", not "tank commander" or some such.
I can see both sides of the argument here and both have valid points. Unless anyone is violating any terms of use for the game, all I have to say is this:
All points brought up in this thread (mass missions, NOE runs, base steamrolling) are a part of the game. No one is cheating or using game mechanics in an inappropriate manner by doing these things. IMO, It is up to players to find a way to counter these different strategies. We all cannot be winning all the time. It just doesn't work that way.
Btw, if you see us coming NOE, nothing makes me soil my underpants quite like a half dozen wirbles waiting.... doesn't take much to counter someone's plans.
You win some, you lose some. Carry on.
