INK'S understanding of AH Lingo

I have done that...once   

it is Hilarious

After watching Joach1m's video where he drills that (I believe) P-47 in the face during a spin, I am on my guard when I send someone spiraling down... I have had some close calls especially with A-20s and Me-410s... they are like bullet hoses.

Ink,

Cool post.  I like your definition of "Fighter".  

Pudknocker = someone who sets their type to "Attack"  for n sorties after entering top 100 "Fighter" score.  As I said in an earlier post, it would be very interesting is someone won the high score (or even were a top scoring pilot) who was not a Pudknocker.

This is all about score preservation and maybe in some cases flying very carefully (not engaging unless overwhelming odds in you favor etc.).

when I was noob I was fling the N1k...squeezed the trigger as I was floating down....and killed the guy who just shot me apart....it was one of the funniest things and luckiest I have ever seen here.

"pudknocker" is great

   This is a great thread.  It's funny to read through all the terms that have been made up/used & evolved through out the years.

Good Pony Pilot:  One who slows down enough to get out-turned/accelerated/gunned by almost every other plane in the set

No-Talent-Assclown: Pony pilot who stays fast and is flying within D10k of any other Pony (and is therefore his wingman)

we should just call that...."P-chalenged"

I dunno what is more obnoxious, the guys that make one 550KIAS pass and haul it for home spraying all the way, or the cacophony of pissing and moaning anytime a delta shows up to a fight (and fights)... they are the most lopsided ENY plane in the set (when light) and are therefore delicious.  What I really love is when K4 or Dora pilots cry about Ponies showing up.  Maybe it's because they are easier to evade in an La-5, but I just don't have a whole lot of problems weathering the soon-to-be-passing storm... and if they get slow, YAY PERKS.

Although it's much more fun shooting down Spixteens (imho).  Something about how the wings come off.


What aboot:

LGay/LaLa - La7 and/or its driver.  Usually upped in the same manner a bomb****er does, after gettings ones lunch money taken to chase down anything and everything.  Thankfully its insane engine allows it to close within D37 yards where even a cracked out spider monkey can get hits with the B-20s!

I try to avoid stuff like "LAbweeb" "ponytard" ECT ECT 

for the fact that it is not the plane that is doing the tardly stuff but the stick....

I see the planes as tools....nothing more......

La7's are DEFINITELY tools

You forgot hack and spy......

I don't believe in "hacks" nor do I care about spies

but you can add them

but needs a catchy name

[Midway]

"owned"- when a con with all the advantages gets killed by the plane he attacked.  If the plane getting attacked can only pull a Headon shot to kill the attacker, he can't claim ownage!

Yes he can... it's easy to avoid HOs unless you are really slow speed... and then you were still pwned by being led to said very slow speed.   Not that I have HOed you guns on guns yet, but just saying... someone HO'ed that didn't avoid it can be claimed as owned/pwned, imho.

JunkyII knows of a real toe curler of a HO I pwned him with one evening.  He complimented me on it immediately afterwards and said wow, he hadn't been HO'ed like that in years... ergo he's instantly towerred, I'm undamaged, and I therefore claim pwnage.

I understand we may have a difference of opinion here, and am just providing mine.

[SkyRock]

Yes he can...

Pont 1.   No, one can't claim ownage if all they can do is attain a headon shot... they haven't "owned" the attacker, they just brought it back to even ground.
  

Not that I have HOed you guns on guns yet, but just saying...

Point 2.  Yes, you HO'd at me on the first pass that day when shuff was orbiting, and I avoided it...  Then went vert, I followed you, had to dodge a pass by Shuff on the way up, and you came over the top and HO'd me again,  you can lie about it all day long,  it is what it is, but it doesn't matter one way or the other as you are not worthy, you have an agenda that doesn't include truly testing our skills against one another... you're just a skilless troll.  You started with alt, in a better turning plane, and 2 vs 1 with both you and your friendly attacking me at the same time, and all you could muster was HO first pass, HO second pass... epic, retarded, fail~!

someone HO'ed that didn't avoid it can be claimed as owned/pwned, imho.

Point 3.  Again, until you understand what "owning" means, and usually that only comes by doing it, then you will stay clueless, as evidenced by this statement.

*see point 3.

I understand we may have a difference of understanding here, and am just proving my lack of it.

no point here, I just fixed it for you.


PS.  funny how you stated the situations where a HO cannot be claimed as ownage, but didn't say anything about the only time a HO can be claimed as ownage, and that is when the one being attacked is 1 vs 3 or more, and brings one of the 3 down with a HO, then ownage can be claimed, at no other time can a HO be claimed as ownage... and in your case it would be all you know to do(go for HO) so you have a shot at claiming ownage, u just need to fight 1 vs multiples more often!

 This tells me 2 things, one- you are very defensive about your beloved HO as it is very dear to you(most likely because its all you got to depend on when up against a caliber opponent), and 2- you don't have alot of experience in 1 vs multiples(hence the fact it doesn't enter your mind when talking about HO situations...   seems to be spot on!
