Have tuned to 200 channel exactly twice in the better part of five years.  Both times, it was back off inside of two minutes.  Nothing but bragging, taunting, whining, sycophantic attaboys and conversations best not seen while trying to enjoy my game time.  I can get all that on country channel and the text bar moves at a much nicer pace with 200 off.

Hmm, I've had it on the entire time and would disagree with you.  Looks like you managed to hit a couple of bad spots on those 4 minutes you been on it :)

Best advice for you Sir.  Detune the cesspool.  I am now at 4 years untuned to the channel of crap slinging.  Makes for a happier game! :aok

If nothing gets to you, I could see your point.  Quickly felt my blood pressure rising when tuned in - and I wasn't even involved in the tirades - err polite discussions going on.  Seemed like the "nice fight" compliments I heard about were on hold for those brief interludes.  Same BS both times.

wow,  someone hurt his feelings   :lol

Nope.  You missed the mark.  Nice try though.  You see, I'd actually have to repect them in order to care enough about what they say to take it personally.

My point was mainly that I have no interest in reading the wall of moronic text that scrolls by from the people who abuse 200 in that fashion.  That is exactly what many others have stated here.

Given your comment, you seem more on their level, so I don't expect you to understand.

Atta boys are just fine.  Nice to have a good fight and have a way to show some appreciation for it.  There is nothing wrong with the idea of 200.  Just the folks who use it sometimes need to be squelched.  What is the squelch limit?  10?

I don't have time for 200.  This is war, not Oprah. 

My squad has a complex rank based structure.  Orders can change at any moment.  Someone could get called to dinner in R/L, or have a thunderstorm at their house.  It's happened before.  We need all channels to be accessible at all times.  Without proper communication, an entire wing could be lost, easily jeopardizing the mission.  If I were to tune to 200, I might not get the message that the town is down and I could get killed holding onto troops when I could have let them go.  I feel that it is unacceptable to let down my brothers in arms. 

"Loose lips sink ships."  Yeah, I've heard it.  It inspired another little saying in our squad..."Channel 200 or victory"

I don't even have the TV or radio on when I fight in Aces High.  It has to be a really cold night for me to even let the dog in the house when I'm serving.  One Squirrel or rabbit outside could have her barking, and me missing crucial Intel.

Chitchat about sports, women, or current events has no place in total war.  Some of you may think this is a joke.  That's the problem with the world today.  Everyone is trying to be a clown instead of getting things done.  Well, I am the exception.  I get things done.  I win warz.

If you love your country and your freedom, detune 200.

This is just an apology from me to all of us on 200. I have had so much going on in "Real Life" lol, that I have let it affect the way I approach playing AH. And, I tend to a lot of times complain on 200 and that is wrong. Sure, sometimes there may be a bogus pick, or a bomber, etc, but thats their perogative and its just a game. I played last night tellin myself that its all in good fun and I must say that it was the most enjoyable night ive had in awhile playing, especially 200....lots of jokes, some stories, and overall just great time. Thanks guys and I myself am cutting down the unnecessary BS on 200 because 85% of the time I get myself into that situation lol. So, again, my apologies to those who I have called out or been overall just a male member to lol...wel, excet Midway lol<S>

OK when did BigR get stupid?  He's been around a long time.  Seems fairly coherent to me :)

Everytime I tune to 200, I lose my text privaleges :bhead

Yup I made the mistake of calling someone a "colliding turd" 4 days ago, turns out that person had moderator privaleges so I didnt get muted, I had my whole chat privalege revoked   :uhoh

I tried tuning to him to apologise and just got another chat revoked message :bhead

I can deal with that, but what irked me was one of his countrymen calle me a C--t on text a few days earlier (and without the gaps, It was the actual spelling) but pretty sure no action taken there.

Anyhoo to the wonderful, awesome, well endowed moderator who didint at all abuse his power, could I please have my chat privaleges returned? i have learnt my lesson, scouts honor  :salute

Oh and 200 is now well and truely tuned out on my radio
I didn't auger! It was mechanical failure :p
