Perk refund?
« on: August 26, 2010, 12:07:12 AM »
I was wondering if this is even possible? I hear people asking if they can get there perks back if they disco in a 262 or something like that, and I was wondering if HTC even has the capability of doing so? I know they can make a way, but I'm just asking if they already have a way they can do that?

No.   We've all had it happen to us at one time.

No, and this is why.  A disco just means an interruption in the communication between your computer and the server, the game can't identify where that occurred, not that that matters.  If that happened, people would just pull the plug (literally pull out their internet cord.) whenever someone got on their six so they would disco.

Folks, play nice.

Just to clarify, I am not asking for any perks back, I am just asking if it is even possible for HTC to do this.

The primary problem is this, someone ups a perk ride, they get in trouble, they just pull the plug.  No. HiTech will NOT do perk refunds for disco's.  Not in a million years.  :lol

Again, I'm not asking if they will, but asking if they are able to.

I must have close to 20.000 perk points over all categories combined but never use them anyway.

This is really a non-issue.

Try flying older planes. Find one you like and learn it well. You'll enjoy it more. Then on the rare occassion you get the itch for a jet you'll have plenty of perks.

I fly a 262 maybe once a month just for kicks. I have better than 30,000 perks in the bank.

perks are just like the points on "whose line is it anyway?"
