Why bail when gun turrets are as powerful as they are?

Following graph has no particular point beyond the fact that I just haven't posted a pie for a long time  :D

I love this guy. Really. You save a ton of ammo when you run into him. There you are at 30k with his Lancs (almost always Lancs). You do the right thing to show him an historical matchup and go out front... but as soon as you get 3.0k from him he bails. 414 sorties this month alone and more than half of those he bailed. If you stay behind him but climb he dives and bails.

Why fly for more than an hour and bail?  :headscratch:

It never made sense to me how a guy who flew F-16's for the CIA while battling scorpions in the cockpit had time to develop a flight sim, either...

Which means, you are not going to agree with him even though you feel the same way because you think he might possibly be a guy you don't like?

Yeah, good job on that, except for the good job part.

I often wonder why people do things in this game or play a certain way..... Its kind of funny actually. This guy is at 30k. He just waits for people to climb all the way up to him, and then he bails...Hilarious.

Apparently comprehension and inference aren't two of your strong suits... I hope school is back in session.

Because for him the fun is annoying you. I'm sure he chuckles to himself everytime he does it. It's called poor sportsmanship. It ruins any game. But hey he's an anonymous-internet-account-holder so Karma does not apply to him. Shaming him on the boards seems like the only recourse doesn't it?  But, alas, shame has no affect on the AIAH.
