HOW we could handle Shade Accounts

[Zacherof]

But .... does it ruin the fun?

No. I play the same way as in AH. Harder and smarter.

Geez, three posts await my attention. You feel I'm 'adding to the problem?' Meh. I'm feeling the 'problem'
is blown out of proportion. If feelings are getting hurt over such and the best you can muster is a
troll whine .... then I'm not seeing me being the problem with your thread. 

Fun .... is what most of us here experience playing Aces High. Mine's not being hurt. Apparently that's
not the case for everyone. But then, some just plain look for a reason to whine in public. 

You sir make me smile. No I'm not suggesting you are a problem or adding to the problem. I am suggesting you have sunk my battleship

Meh. Your percieved intent that perks are about kills... period is just silly.  There's nothing you can point to that says HTC intended for people to create alternate accounts for the sole purpose of shooting them down to gain perk points.  At least my perceived intent has some basis in the common way in which the game is played.  As for what HTC does or doesn't do... well, as I said in God knows which thread about this same subject... the historical course of action was to wipe perks and scores.  If that was the case... history says you're just being obtuse and shade vulching is lame enough to discourage.   

I think we can put this topic to bed.  I honestly feel like those of you attacking the anti-shade position are on some other planet.  As much as I enjoy arguing when I know damn well I'm right, I don't think further discussion serves any purpose.

Sukov... come on in here and get the last word bro. 

 

Hey I was just answering a question.

I will say this Arlo.... At least you made me lol sir.

I wonder how many farm trucks it takes to earn a 262.

Back to reality. The perk system is, plainly and simply, a control factor. Players must garner perks in order to fly the higher end
rides. This prevents the LWMA arena from becoming the 'ten thousand dweebs in 262s arena.' There's nothing either of us can
point to where HTC considers whatever method a player uses to 'earn' perks (short of an outright game hack) a TOS violation
or concern. Nor is the behavior you suspect something HTC can confirm. Perhaps if a majority cried out in pain and frustration
then HTC would take this as seriously as you and a few others do. Good luck with that. Apparently the concern doesn't run
that deep ... or wide ... yet.  While separating player perks in each of the mains may be possible, has anyone stopped to
consider if any of the other arenas (outside the mains) earn perks at all ... or why?

if HTC is going to allow vulching a second account in a vacant arena for perk points that can be used in the populated arena, they should just sell perk points directly. save everyone time.

the only question is the price of perks.

I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to pay for a second account, and then charge someone else to vulch it for perks..

I could swear HTC said they didn't want a "secondary economy"

I could swear HTC said they didn't want a "secondary economy"

Nor are they demanding one. This suspicion involves desperate players.

All you guys talking about is perk farming... padding scores/rank..... What about achievements? getting achievements either using shade accounts, or getting your squaddie to help you get the achivements... i haven't seen anyone up at SDKfz 251 for quite a while now... last kill for the GV achievement... kinda like a thorn in the side dun you think...if time was esstential in getting that achievement, how long do i need to wait to get that achievement? i live in ASIA... by the time i get back from work to get on aces, usually there isn't anyone on.. maybe 100 players if i'm lucky.. weekends are dedicated to my GF( i do intend to marry her), do couplely stuff.. so i dun get much time on aces as much as i would like to.. so achievements are kinda like good for me.. at least i have something to look forward to instead of trying to get kills in a sparsely populated arena..well.. you can bring out the torches and pitchforks for all i care... i got someone to help me get my achievements...FYI... i didn't earn no perkies... cos i never landed them.. The only problem i had was because my rank went up due to those kills.. and that kinda set the torches and pitchforks going... i like stars to my name... cos thats all i want and can get from the game at the moment....So if you think i did wrong... please get skuzzy to take my perks away... BTW... i jsut returned to the game so i have any about 300 plus fighter perkies... 200 plus bomber perkies and 300 plus gv perkies... so take them away if you think that will make you feel better... but i can tell you...nothing is solved.. to me its just back to square one... do you really think that will actually help stop? you guys have absolutely no idea how many of these people are out there.. actually doing it for perkies in MW or EW.

  If I thought it mattered Id have 3 accounts and do alot of those things. Why not? Paying 45 bucks a month should entitle you the right to.
