This often means expending 20 planes to chute into the tower for some fun.

Heck, I've fought u!  I certainly cant remember ever beating you.  I'd say you're right where I put 6 year people Latrobe...at least from my view. 

My current skill level is dead on what you listed for a sophomore player. I have 3 aircraft that I'm pretty ok at (109, P47, P38), I have a good understanding of how well they can fly, and there are plenty of other players who are far superior to me and kick my butt every time I fight them. I only say I'm between sophomore and junior because I've been playing for 6+ years. That has to count for something!

Been playing this game forever and my complaint isn't the folks who won't fight, but the boring amount of time it now takes to fly to a fight. I rarely play anymore because it's become a job to commute to a fight . I spend enough boring time in the car and don't want to spend the same boring time flying through some virtual landscape. I can see why folks, once they get close enough to the enemy, are hesitant about commiting to anything but a guaranteed win. I say move the bases closer, let the folks who want quick, fun fights get them while the folks who want to take the time to climb to alt can still do it if they want to. It might be my imagination, but this game seemed to have a lot more players when you didn't have to fly five minutes to find a fight.

I agree....And if you want to bomb you'll still have the option of taking off from a few bases away.

There are fights out there. Agreed they are hard to find sometimes, but they are there. This "group" of players are of the younger generation of game players. They have been brought up on WoW, CoD and now WoT. Games were spawning and running around with guns blazing until you die only to re-spawn and do it all over again. This type of player also breeds hordes and the horde style attack for base captures. They lack any real skills and have really no intention of gaining those skills. They are perfectly happy to die a million times to capture a base or get their name in lights once in a while.

It's their folks $15 so they can do what they want. For those of us looking for a good fight, we have to wallow through the crap some times, but if you look long enough, and hard enough, you'll find them.
