I hope the lady reconsiders.  I enjoy the company of women, even in a combat game.  Yes Pepperr makes me nervous....because she is usually behind me and I'm on fire.  All in good fun.

That is horrible and shameful that those 2 behaved that way. 

Better to report them than let them ruin your fun.

If you don't leave and want to fly with a squad, feel free to look us up.  We fly Rook in LW.  In addition, feel free to PM me if you are looking to fly FSO.  We don't tolerate that sort of behavior in our squad.  Fly with us anytime.  Rodent57 is the CO, Mace is the XO.

I'll weigh in. 

What good is a game where teenagers or those who act like them rule the roost?

Come on Dale.  View the clips and bring the hammer down if the logs show it is just to do so.

This thread should have been locked and gotten rid of long ago. Imagine if a male had created a whine post about harassment how would the community have acted? Should the different sexes be treated differently and if so why? Wouldn't treating a female different be kinda sexist in its own right?

A long time ago in AH1, my son was flying and some guy got angry at him for something he was doing, I'm sure he didn't call a bogie or something. I had told my son he could fly but wasn't allowed to talk because I didn't want people harassing him or him annoying people with game talk. He was 8 years old.

So this guy just lights in on him ,swearing at him and denigrating him etc, I came back into the room and he's almost in tears and I hear this guy, I picked up the mic and tried to explain it to him,but he just wasn't gonna have it.

So I called all my squaddies and friends and anyone who would join to come fly around check sixxing this guy until he finally gave in and apologized to my son. A week later he contacted me in game asking for my address, so I thought why not ,let's see this cat. About two weeks later I get a phone call and he's in town wants to meet me and my son, so we load up and go to the designated meeting place. He gets out of his car ,walks to the trunk, pulls out a very nicely build P-51 model, walks up to my son with a big grin and hands it to him, apologizes to me and him ,buys our meal and then I hear his story of life, a sad tale it was and I have often spoke of it to others, so we can appreciate that teammates/squaddies/wingmen/brothers in arms, means more to those who actually served than it can ever mean to those who didn't.

We are still friends to this day!!

It's awesome when someone reads only the first post of a whine thread and thinks they have the whole &$#%ing story.

Tend to agree........... the accusation is one of bullying and harassment.............. if true, then pretty serious.  If untrue equally serious IMO.

View the clips, make a decision, lock the thread stating the matter has been dealt with.
