I gotta admit that I would like a newbie beacon that they can turn off. I would love to help and having it on would be a "Help me please" sign. Default to on, when they are comfortable, turn if off whenever they feel like it.
why does the beacon have to show to the enemy, why not just to friendlies?
They can do the same thing by tuning the training channel on the radio, and you can help by tuning it also. Systems are there, but if nobody uses them they still don't help.
Fuzeman, can you do me/us a favor, or atleast go with it to see. Allow us to form a RAG and help support it with a couple drop down links. Maybe even allow a symbol next to the callsign of a newbie, maybe up to 6 months. Let's just see what happens.I have no doubt we can staff the RAG with great volunteers and with even an "*" next to the name we can know when and who to help. I know, bad idea and all but let us try it out. I think it can be done with very little effort on the part of HT and could pay some serious dividends. If we keep 100 players over the course of a year, that's $1,500/mo revenue for HT. Having run small businesses before, that is likely a big chunk of your utility bill each month.What do you say?Boo
Why ask Fuse? He doesn't work for HTC. There is a training corps in aces High already full of very skilled players.
and .....It's fuZeman
I'M SORRY !!! I told you it's a blackberry and I have very big fingers !!!
Wow, you guys need help.
