first time

[2ADoc]

Well tonight was actually a first for me.  I was in on a town in a Dhog, I saw a spit in the air, I turned in and then offset to let the guy get set.  I really though that I since I offset I would not get HOed.  How wrong I was.  I made a comment on 200 about nice Ho even though I offset, the next thing I get is a PM about how he needed the kill and how I liked the 20mm in the face, and how he would have schooled me anyway old timer.  Personally I have never been blatantly HOed in the MA when it could have been a 1v1.  I should have known better than to give a Spit driver the benefit of the doubt.  In no way is this a piss and moan post, but now I am starting to see the gamey guys getting into it.  What really got me was when he PMed me I haven't seen anything like that since Pluto was here.  The old saying is it takes two to Ho, well i try my best not to Ho folks, I try not to pick, if I am in a fur ball and get HOed no prob.  If I pick it is because I am in Hot, and there is a red guy chasing a green guy, usually I miss and just get the red guy to break off.  In no way am I thinking of leaving the game, but from now on if I have the advantage, if it is a HO, a pick or a vulch, I am taking it.  I love the knife fight, but I have read in the BBS about the GAMEY aspects getting bad, and people complaining about it, I just figured it was one of those things.  So from here on out, If I set my site on a bird, whether it be a HO, a pick or a Vulch, I am taking the shot.

Some people suck.  Don't let them get to you.

The best revenge is when you unknowingly encounter him again from a possition of disadvantage and then kick his arse from here to the other side of the area.


My 110 vs a C.205...... just sayin'  .

Well once i got hoed by a spit16 when i was in an M-jug, came down stallfighting with him... all he was tryin to do is to separate and shoot my face. Then got the same abuse ("youre SCHOOLED RETARD")
Look, i dont mind being killed (heck i knew i had no chance against that spit), still that kind of spineless bastages used to piss me off. I was tryin to give him some 1v1 fun instead of an endless Mjug BnZ, then got this.
He was the well-respected one who just posted the uppage limit by time thread.

Chit happens. Be a heartless dweeb if you want, you only gonna get a good 1v1 in the MA from your friends anyway.

Sorry Doc,

  I know it chafes to have those encounters.  Heck, some days after a long run of bad luck, I have been known to get a lil mean myself    Maybe you can chaulk that up to making that pilot's day.  I know this really doesn't sound very supportive, but the sooner that you are able to get that bad taste from a poor sportsman out of your head, the sooner all the following encounters will be more prominent  and the sooner his dweebery can fade into the file cabinet under, "sometimes a real dick".

Never ever give the benefit of the doubt to a spitfire driver. They're silly.

Never ever give the benefit of the doubt to a spitfire driver.

+ 1 from this Spitfire pilot!

[uptown]

+ 1 from this Spitfire pilot!

see i told ya.  Except the difference with you is, you're good fun to fight and you're cool win or lose.   

[Changeup]

Not all Spit drivers are HOturds.  Let's just get that straight, lol

[Delirium]

So from here on out, If I set my site on a bird, whether it be a HO, a pick or a Vulch, I am taking the shot.

Why? If you do that, that Spitfire pilot is teaching you how to play the game (and not for the better I might add). Instead, avoid the HO and kill him with the better head on your shoulders.

 Then, feel free to PM them and say, "See? I didn't have to HO and your attempted HO even put me in a better position. Thanks!"  It really pisses them off!

Mean people suck.

HOing takes as much skill as required to pull the trigger. Life being about incentives could AH write some code that if you are killed in a HO you have to wait 5 minutes to relaunch? Right now there is no disincentive to HO, other then 200 or PMs. If these little dweeptards (not to insult the Vtard squad) had to sit out for 5 minutes they would see the risk and HOing incidents would drop dramatically.

If we keep the current model, HO after HO after HO after HO, get some kills then die in a HO, reup 2 seconds later...nothing changes. Penalize the HO.

Boo

PS I know, most will moan the loss of 5 minutes but it will only be for a few weeks until the dweeptards get a clue. Besides, moaning about the 5 minutes is the intent. Keep moaning until you stop HOing.

.  Personally I have never been blatantly HOed in the MA when it could have been a 1v1. 

Are you sure you're playing the same game as the rest of us?






Do not give in to the "tardation" shun silly play, take the high road then grief them on 200 for their "skirt wearing"

LoL!!! This has been a raging issue since the first MMO flight sim. Face it folks, people HO, it's just the way it is. Sure, in WWII, an HO meant he could shoot u, u could shoot him, and you could collide, killing both of you.........and they still did so. In fact, one of the tactics most used by 190s on the eastern from was the HO since that big radial tended to stop bullets and the fire power of the 190 would shred any opponent. This is a game!!!! We don't really die!!!!  Get back up there, find him alone at low alt, and play with him like a cat does a mouse until you want to eat his innards!!!
