No, what sucks is when you actually come down to ground level and let them know that they won't be vulched, and your the only con in the sector, and instead of upping for a fight, they sit in field guns trying to kill you. And then when they see a friendly up, THEN they up so they can gang you. Then you ask yourself why are you even bothering.

I hear that.  Have experienced that so many times when taking a P-40 or some other third tier plane to make a slow circle at 3k, far away from an enemy field.  Most times, nobody ups at all.  That wasn't the case here.  The bad guys had a cap going.  I chose to shoot at vulchers looking for easy kills, as opposed to being an easy kill.

People are going to gang, vulch and everything else - and in late war monsters, to boot.  They get mad when instead of getting their name in lights, they get a complimentary 37mm enema.  Killing vulchers is the real sport of Kings.  :aok
"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

"they did it in WWII..." is lame because they was life and death. This is fun. The game simulates the mechanics of war so we can have fun "playing" it as a competative sport.

vulching is like hitting the other boxer with a chair as walks out of his dressing room on the way to the ring. It mis-interprets why you are there, and what a "fight" means, and why it's fought.

No, vulching of fighters on rearm pad is, a favourite pasttime of mine. No other target yells more "SHOOT ME" to me, particularly when hangars and ords are up and there is no reason to ream but one...  :noid  :devil

What about if you enjoy the landing, taxiing and re arm as part of the immersion of the game

Vulching is fun, rocket vulching double so. Killing vuchers fun too, although I prefer to come from the next base with cannons.

Field guns bleh, though I might feel different if I could actually hit anything.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
