Well, let's examine the evidence.  We can throw all other evidence out except for the fact that the film ended with him staring out of the window of the tower, forlornly.  Well, that and I smelled bacon...

Your right Sunbat , I missed the tower part at the end... :salute

Now my question's to you are.....Is it necessary to have 7-9 guys jumping one plane? How many should be needed? What makes people think they need to do this? and How can we stop such douchbaggery from happening in this game?


 :salute

  Just think of it this way:  All by yourself, you took 7-9 enemy fighters out of position.   :aok

  Think how long they had to fly to get back to the rest of their flight.

Absolutely bad idea...for those who play for rank and score. 

Pretend I'm one of the score/rank guys:
I'm fighting with a guy, a friendly ignores my "I'm good please stay out".  Then another, and another...soon I've got 5-6 "helpers" and now my hard-earned kill (if I'm even awarded the kill) is worth 1/6?  WTF?  How's that fair?

it would teach you to kill faster.

You are assuming they are all trying to kill him for score which is simply not true.  Most of those guys just want to record a kill.

They would only get a partial credit for a kill, the more guys on the one the smaller the bit of credit. Oh and the rest of the kill credit isn't spread amongst the other helpers, they still only get assists.

may as well try to take 1 o two of them with you. . . or hit the deck and run.

I thought I saw a BRD at the end  there but you nosed up and got shot up. . .  was that an early 109?

That would be a detriment to business.

You have to give new players lots of carrots.

You don't need to remove scoring just switch on friendly collisons!  :devil

Modify this to switch on Friendly Collision except within 400 yards of runway and it might work.

Firstly -your plane's engine sounds like an alarm and makes my ears bleed.

Secondly - blame yourself for trying to defeat 7-9 guys without a single advantage. They looked like they had nothing else to shoot down in that sector until your came along rambo style.

All seriousness me and Debrody got pushed down by some high rooks over this Bish field. Scared them off then we were trying to make a break but G6s can't do a whole lot with LAs and KI84s all over you. Not to mention that 190 coming from 20k right when  we started getting everyone else roped out. Just got caught in a bad spot and didn't get out.


I think a plane that has more then 3 people doing damage on it before it goes down...nobody should get the perks for killing that plane.

Ur post needs to be edited and u should be banned right now. If everyone finally gets the realization that there is no point to posting on this BBS, then it  will vanish and CAP1 will have no place to spam the AvA and may actually show up on our doorsteps with pamphlets. And Ack-Ack may actually have to get his aholedness out of his system in real life which would undoubtedly get him curb stomped and frequent visits to the ICU.
