I can't tell if Agent is being serious or mocking.

I'll simply say: The customer is not always right. That is a fallacy.

Where did he say the customer is always right?

They did it because you jerks wont pick a side, because you jerks like to spy on other teams, because you jerks are jerks!
Honestly, i would have people register to ONE side,forever....period.

Know why? because im not a side changing "its all about me and my game, i wanna win win win!!" jerk.

The only time people should be allowed to "change sides" is if they are sent a invite from someone on the other team (Squad leader .ect .ect), like how some squads like to change sides to fly with other squads, and that's fine.


Pick a side and stick with it! Knights forever, ya jerks!

Notice how as a member of the Committee yells loudly decrying any individual citizen, thus changing  the mobs direction, the rest of the Committee starts another side show within the show.

Still even Agent does not, nor has found a way to answer why HiTech has chozen 12 hours for the side change rule. I guess it's a stretch but, vitrolic passion can substitute in the void of any reason.

This certaintly is an excellent tipping point for various players to speak their real feelings about the games creator and with crystal candor how much they detest those of the game's community not privelged to their olympian circle.

If you read the memoirs of the real Committee of Public Safety they had similar atttiudes and feelings in 1793. Unlike today, in the 1700's there was no Internet hiding the targets of their passions and directing the mobs to castigate them roughly. Some historians beleive a quarter million innocent french citizens died at the hands of Committee aimed mobs.

In revolutions on a state scale or in teapots in the dark. The hearts of the actors and scenes in this play never change. Robespierre and the Committee under different names at different times are the vocal elites and heart of the discord. Only how the "body afflicted" being exterminated or bullied by them changes as the last act of this play when ever it is presented.

I've seen people state whether they like the new rules or they don't like it. I've seen people state their reason for their point of view. There seem to be others who's only purpose is to antagonize others. Is this the norm on this BBS? Frankly, I think they are making themselves look foolish. Especially if they have nothing more to contribute to the thread than that.

Fujita, I like you sir.  :salute

I used to be a Knight "forever", until I realized how dumb rabid country loyalty is.  Nothing wrong with sticking with one side and your friends, but there are cool people on the other two sides that you will never know by not switching.  Oh and by the way, some of the people on the nits (maybe even some of your friends) probably do the same stuff that pisses you off when the other sides do it.  :D

I'm sure what you consider "a fight", I and many others consider a boring EZ mode green horde.  Now we are forced to partake in it or log off.

Foolish.  The numbers have already been on the steady decline for the past year or so now.  How will your gaming experience be any better if there are even less players online flying?  Or do you actually think the net result of this change will be positive player growth?  If so, how?

Yep, and until he does, I will just have to assume certain things that will get me Rule 4'd if I elaborate upon.



This whle thread can be summed up and finished with his post. "The one that go through" :)

Agent360, if you are paying 14.95 a month you only have one right.

Stop paying 14.95 a month.




Exercising that right means you wont be able to play however.





I am not suggesting that anyone should stop playing or stop paying.

Just a little heads up, not everyone plays to "win the war." Personally, I couldn't care less if people want to spy on the other side, locate CV's and point out NOE missions, that has little effect on my game. I play to dogfight, not to bomb or take bases, therefore, when people spy it goes unnoticed by me because I just don't care about that aspect of the game. With that said, even though I switch sides frequently I won't relay any info, I respect that some people do play to win the war, and that's fine with me.

Sir, you have that right whether you pay or not. 

Paying 14.95 gives you no more rights than you had before.  It may seem I am arguing semantics here but the English language is fairly well suited to illuminate an idea properly with "it's" correct usage.  I generally choose my words and sentence structure carefully to avoid ambiguity.  Sometimes I fail.

the last few responses...  :noid

you're right in that there are no "first amendment rights" on this BBS... however, just as a customer can vote with their wallet, they can also opine about their purchase <edit: whether allowed to here, or elsewhere; wherever /edit> (sheesh don't even have to buy something to have an opinion about it.)

so both sides are "right."

just sayin'   :banana:

on topic: meh... still don't care much for it, but neither do i limit myself in having other options.
