This will probably be the most tackyest, poor taste thing I ever post, but here goes:

You, BulletVI, survived a head on collision....

I for one want to thank you Bullet - for making me feel at home!

Been occasionally lurking on the boards, and noticed again and again how it seems like NOTHING has changed in the time I've been away. Although the names have changed, there are still guys shouting "YOU WANTED TO SEE THE FILM - SO HERE IT IS!!!". Still have complaints about hording and base capturers, still occasional rants about the way the game ought to be played.

But I've noticed so very few collision rants. Made me wonder if the message had finally gotten through, if people finally understood why things have to work the way they do.

But Bullet, you've restored my faith in the universal constancy of the AH BBS. At least we know there's SOMETHING in this world of chaos that we can rely on!

I have been reading about collision attacks since I hve been playing. There is a simple solution to end the complaints. If there is a collision both planes go down no one gets the kill. Sounds simple to me

Simpler solution: Don't crash into the plane flying at you and you won't go down.

I think HTC needs to implement collision stats for each player, so the newbs that whine can see that the vets don't collide that much and maybe there's a reason for that hmmm?

Then I will ask you the same very basic & simple question:



You are the Jug pilot. Picture shows the actual moment of "collision".
You would have no problem dying to this? You think there would be no complaints by anyone? ;)
