not scoring kills in bombers

[AHLongri]

Had two instances now--one was a gun kill in the air --radio log said I shot him down--and today he had just landed and my bombs got him--said I shot him down--It never scored either kill on my score--Second one may not be a prob as he was on the ground--but the first one should have scored--sorry wasn't filming either time

Kills in bombers do not count towards score.

Kills in bombers do not count towards score.

But it still registers the kill in stats, don't it?

Correct, you can go to the statistics page: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/scores/players.php and it will show your kills in a bomber.

*kills towards fighters don't count in bombers

Just to clarify:

No kill whatsoever, be it of a GV or a plane, will influence the bomber score(rank) in any way. There is no such thing like K/D or K/S, and there are no kill points.

The confusion mostly  comes from two different ways the score can be displayed : On the score page on the website, and in in game by the .score command.

When you have killed another plane, it is not shown on the score info in game (kills will stay 0). But on the webpage score sheet, it will. With killed GV, it's the other way round.
But no matter where and if the kill is being displayed, it's just statistical information only. And as already mentioned, all kills always appear on the pilot stats page.
