but.......he berated no one. he offered them an option. he offered them a chance to have a different kind of fight. he's offering them a chance to learn a new skill.
these offers are all just that. offers. nothing more, nothing less.
you and a bunch of others are choosing to do nothing but berate the guy for trying to do something that could be good.
sheesh..........if you don't have anything good to say, then pass the thread by.
Hmmm... lets examine more closely:
as for the no icons thing, well the pilots that want to get better like them.
This clearly meant the people who don't like no icons have no interest in getting better. Only the AvA crew have an interest in getting better.
the pilots that don't like getting killed hate them.
This implies that everyone who doesn't like no icons is a runner or an ack hugger or plays only for score (i.e. they are timid).
most people that like them have better SA and play the game for what it is.
Here he tells us that people in the AvA have better SA that everyone else. Not only that, the players in the AvA play the game "for what it is". This implies they play it as an air to air combat game while no one else in the community has that interest (remeber, others are only playing for scores).
the guys that don't like no icons probably wouldn't have lasted very long in WW2 cause their SA isn't that great.
Once again, the pilots in the AvA's SA is superior to everyone elses because they play with no icons. Also, they would last longer in a "real fight" than everyone else in the game regardless of how skilled some of those who never venture into the AvA are.
its an acquired skill and some like it and some don't.
So here we are discussing skill level again. Only the guys who fly the AvA have what it takes to master this skill, therefore are superior.
as for inviting the DA pilots to try it out, it was just that. a place to try something new and different. maybe increase your skills.
And here we are again. As if telling everyone else more than once already that they don't hold a candle to those in the AvA skill-wise, this time he targets the DA pilots specifically.
I have no issue with him posting asking people to come try out the AvA but as I said in my first post in this thread, his attitude is pretty condescending. He's pretty much told everyone in the community other than the 12 guys who play in the AvA regularly that they suck. And when it was pointed out to him he didn't even care. Sorry, but if those are the types of community members you embrace then this game is going downhill and I've lost respect for you too.
