oh c'on coomz you didn't think the comic was funny?

[coombz]

I hadn't really looked - I guess it's kinda funny, is there a context behind it's appearance in this thread that I'm missing or is it just a random insertion of humour into an otherwise terribly serious thread?

I am really keen to know what The Few did to piss off the 71st so much    It must be something pretty bad. Notwithstanding Biggles ranting I have seen other evidence that there is a huge grudge held for some reason and I think for the entertainment value of the community all the drama should be out in the open

Well I wanted an excuse to show it, and Joac1m gave me an opportunity.  I figured a little jokes to derail the o-so-serious thread would prevent the potential onslaught of nasty PMs I'm guessing is flying behind the scene..

hmm I didn't see what JockyM did, and I'm not falling for your cunning trick to try and get me to go back and read more of the bile and rage that is overflowing from this thread ;>

I think until I see these famous films of KoTH cheating I'm going to assume that this 'beef' is just nerd rage prompted by some 71st dudes being beaten by some of the younger members of the Few (like the mouthy colonials with the AoM ® custom cockpits).  I can dig it. No one likes a bad winner...

and they have bad grammar and punctuation too   which is an even worse crime to my mind.

Someone writing massive whine post about the Few

We are a bunch of Bott boys would suffice  

[pervert]

You're right, it's all coming back to me.........

There I was, low, slow and outnumbered, but holding my own against wave after wave of dweebs, when low and behold the skies darkened above me, 5, no 7, no 12 tempests all diving down to gang me! <claps>.

God you guys are so awesome. Can I PLEASE be a fewtard, a fewb, a fewbie or whatever you awesome doods refer to your majestic knightly order as?

In all seriousness although I do like the 71st and I would consider Bat a friend, I have to say its pointless trying to make out your squad is any different to any other in the game or point out others flaws.

Most in 71st fly around in hoing ganging, setting up bases to vulch for score etc. I have personally been ganged by 5+ of your squad finishing with a good old HO this happens frequently enough for me to consider it a prefared style of gameplay within your squad, so why come on here and denouce another squad for things your own squad does? 

We don't really know who you are or why you are so angry? What happened that you wrote this thread Biggles? 

[Bruv119]

what perv said really,  

I wouldn't throw stones in glass houses.   Or listen to Batfink's conspiracies whilst smoking and drinking.    

Now for leadership I can't fix another players squadron but get in game,  get them to do something TOGETHER and try and put a  British - American slant on it.

I have films of the 71st playing soggy biscuit

I'm going to mention this in every thread they post in (but never provide the actual film)

[Bruv119]

biggles also made some disparaging remarks about some stuff that I would like to clarify,  

Steffk, Buffer and pooface (biggles)   did help answer several of my noobish questions when I first came to AH,   I never asked to join their squadron and vice versa.   There was one day when Some of the 71st guys were on the ground in GV's attempting to capture a base when a long standing member asked for a spitfire V sweep.   He was very displeased when he was told that they were capturing a base.  This must have caused some sort of internal strife that we weren't aware of and we must have been identified as the root of the problem.  My memory is a little hazy but I think we thought that we had better leave them to it and swap out of knightland.  

Since then the only times we have butt heads is over British recruits and Kazaa's virtuoso flying displays.   I'm sure Bat would love to add to that summary but I do get tired of a one way dialogue that always puts us in a bad light when all we have done is built a squad that apparently tries too hard.   We laugh and joke just like any other and this portrayal of us being spotty, unemployed nerds with bad teeth really is in your imagination.

I knew all those times I HO-ed people in my B25, bombed towns and FH's in my B17, and dive bombed tanks with a B29 would come back to haunt me.

Oh by the way it's 71 Squadron not the 71st, some of my squaddies tend to get bit irate if you say 71st Squadron. 


In all seriousness I don't think most of the 71 Sqn really care about what's going on here so please don't assume everyone has a grudge or is mad at The Few. Don't get me wrong I'll stand up for my squad mate but it's just that this thread has REALLY gone off the rails and into territory that I don't like to get involved in.

Personally I have nothing against The Few and I've enjoyed flying along side them in scenarios and in MA battles and have no problems doing so in the future. I'm just in it to have fun....and be a dweeb.

I wholeheartedly agree with you beefcake and I don't hold anything against one group of individuals on the say so of one or two mis-informed people.   That goes for everyone, even the muppets!

[SunBat]

You and your ilk are what's wrong with this game...

Nice use of "ilk."
