That's a good idea, but sadly some people can't think above a 3rd grade level.

and they then instill these 3rd grade level tactics on new guys and it's a never ending cycle that will only be solved with the implementation of subs.

So lets talk.   Lameness?  alternatives ?  Dedalos had a good Idea. Talk alternatives to the Gamey attittude here.
It's gamey because it is a game.  A real CV did not carry an infinite amount of fighters in ten different flavors. There are many aspects of real life that are left out because of the un-fun factor.  Horrible, firey death being the leading un-fun aspect of the reality of air combat. HTC does a generally good job keeping the fun in, and the un-fun out.

Personally, I agree with "send them to the front" crowd. 

Alternatives? I think it was Greens that suggested to remove CV's from the base count for victory.  Dedalos' shell game is another good idea, with no coding required.

how about appreciating that different players play the game from an individual up to a global, strategic level. some like to win 1v1s, others like to win a map reset. what you consider "gaming" the game, others consider "playing" the game.


btw whats your ingame callsign?

As far as the original post, I'm on your side here. As for hiding, it happens all the time. Many people will come on the boards and mouth off about something, and then turn around and do worst in the game. Other come here and voice their opinions and haven't played the game in months/years.

A LOT of people don't like what I say a LOT of the time, but I hold true to it both here and in the game. I think everyones BBS name and call sign in the game should be the same. That way you can't hide behind a BBS persona, and people could be some what held accountable for what they type.
