hblair,
You can't expect everybody to want to play the land-game. When you start beating on one side, I expect folks to start logging. At a certain point I would log too. I like flying my Jug and I'll do intercepts of raids and such, that's fun. But once it gets to a certain point where I either can't get enough gas or enough clear space to climb safely before I fight, I'm not interested. Some folks love to organize, and some don't. Once the offense has organized, the defense must or be destroyed. For those that don't like to play that way, they'll just log or head to the TA to furball or whatever. That's fine IMHO, and to be expected.
Some folks will love running defense and fighting greatly outnumbered, and some won't. With all due respect, I don't think you should be looking down on others simply because they don't enjoy playing the game that way. If you think the results would be different if the places were reversed, I think you are mistaken.

Well I had fun intercepting a couple of raids. After Cit smacked my Jug down, real life intervened and I didn't get back into the arena as I had hoped. Glad to see you guys had fun.
