Twizzty,

Please don't let these three bone heads chase you away. You are one of the many great players who has helped grow the AvA into the quality place it has become.  

These three are akin to gnats at a picnic.  Ignore them.




They have pretty pathetic lives if the have to shade themselves.  But, it is tough living the life of a coward.

Sorry, Gents, I don't have much patience for cowards, cheats, liars, etc.  Must be all those years as a volunteer, doing the right thing.

Yeah...you guys are right and I shouldn't let it get to me, but last night my frustration level was high to say the least.

My time ingame has been very limited and I really do enjoy it when I can get into the AvA with several of you on. The fights in here are some of the best in the game anymore IMO, but it's not very fun when your fighting 5 guys and 3 of them are pulling as hard as they can just to shoot you in the face.

Oh well, that's enough squeaking from me. I do respect the hell out of you guys that offer great fights and only want great fights in return. You know who you are(most of the guys on this thread for instance) and it's you guys that'll keep me coming back.

It's not a whine thread in my opinion, Molsman.  We've got what amounts to a speck of cancer in the AVA with the three stooges.  It's worth discussing and hopefully encouraging newer AVAers to stay on because we've got a great bunch of guys in here on a regular basis.  I, for one, am not going to let the cancer spread nor push me away.   :salute

I stayed until most of the regulars had left and just watched for the alt monkey coming to pick me.  Once the quality of fights had diminished I logged and enjoyed my time at home    :D

Well, one way around it is to simply do something else. In my case, I upped a Sherman and drove around for awhile. Perhaps, since we talked about it in previous threads, that we start using Skype in the background, or perhaps an unposted all-talk radio channel to discuss amongst ourselves where we can take the fight to avoid dealing with Huey Duey and Louie.

The other option - is that we leave them to their devices and play their game. I'll switch sides along with everyone else until they get the hint.

I'll fly neutral-country border patrols (gimme a '51 or 109 in Swiss markings!!) if it means that I avoid dealing with them.

I don't know what's to gain - their kills don't change their scores - we certainly don't give them less opposition than the MA, and at least last night - no one was smack talking that I could see. So what's the benefit? Being ranked #1 in a group of less than 100 active players? I don't get it.

What I would like everyone to do is to simply keep a log of any bad behavior. When it warrants it, we'll complain to HTC as a community.

It's gotten to me in the past as well. It may yet in the future you never know. There's enough decent types flying in the AvA to overcome 2 or 3 guys out to just get under your skin though. Glad you reconsidered.
