A Public Apology to Badboy

[nrshida]

In a recent thread I made what I still think was a decent leap of extrapolation to smoke out a particularly nasty weevil which has been griefing AH players for at least three years. Most especially during weekends at the furbal lake by flying a Tempest, with a second account used to dot wingman his victims and with that second account in God Mode so he could determine your altitude and which exact plane you are flying etcetera.

I identified ACM which was unmistakable connecting this player to a set of instructional films presented in Badboy's "Don't Get In a Flap" thread:

Ironically enough a gap in my reasoning was suggested by Midway's insistance that I was wrong, he made me think of one possibility I had not considered: That the pilot in Badboy's thread might not actually be Badboy himself. I thank Midway for his well constructed post, and standing by his conviction.

It has now been explained to me that this is the case, the pilot in Badboy's thread, and THEREFORE the DA lake Tempest griefer is this other pilot and not Badboy.

I have been informed via PM by numerous long-time players that the pilot in those films is actually TequilaChaser, apparently a friend and former squadmate? (<-not sure about that part, a squadron called The Damned? Before my time), and also an official Aces High Trainer.

Therefore, I apologize to Badboy for incorrectly accusing him of being said griefing pilot. I do not know if Badboy is aware of this person's activities or if he approves or not, nor the extent to which he would go to to protect his friend, it is irrelevant.

I have met Badboy in game and he was always civil to me and has of course contributed a great deal of resources to this game's community.

I am sorry Badboy, I apologize.

I hope enough people see this to undo the reputational damage of your false impugnations and disparagements that this outstanding Aces High contributor's character has had to endure.  


False accusations lacking factual evidence is no way to justify your means to accomplish your ends.
May Badboy's awesome reputation remain untarnished in the minds of all.
Thank you, Nrshida, for considering your way.

Zack1234, Nrshida is now all yours.

Guys flying around furball lake in a tempest, picking fights, should just go by an X-box or return to "Quake."

I'm sorry, I don't buy this.  I didn't buy the allegation that Badboy (a/k/a Badz for oldtimers) was the perp, and I don't buy the notion that it's TC, either.  Not without a lot more proof than what I've seen here.

Hopefully Nrshida has learned from the experience and backs off TC pending irrefutable fact based proof.

From Midways link Badboy is awesome, Shida should fall on someones sword

Hopefully it was but a moment(s) of weakness, more than offset by all the good that is in Nrshida.

Your skepticism comes with the profession

for what it's worth, all everyone flys in there are spit 14's/16's,-1C/-4's and other uber rides and fly even more cowardly than in the MA a times. I think some Planes should be slightly perked, but no perks can be earned in the DA.

Hmmm... TequilaChaser.. was it?
I remember some dude that always showed up in a Tempest in DA and clobbered everything flying around him, but I struggle to remember the name.. TequilaChaser kinda sounds right, but no.. I must be thinking of another one.. Was a shorter name..  

This is years ago now anyway, I just got reminded when I read nrshidas description of flying style. This dude could handle the Tempest like nobody I've seen for sure, and he was not a regular in DA. He could show up, do 5-6 sorties just to scoop up a bag of kills and leave. Irritating bloke, because he would let nobody come near him.

The ominose tempest picktard had a new name every day, thats why you cant remember him. Also he was jumping into private duels even after being asked to stay out.

The other one was called DikTater, and he actually fought in that tempon.

Zorro? <Z>  

If him, he was fun to fight...very very serious guy.  I liked Zorro and DA Cobra too, always fun.

I wish they'd show up again.  I miss them greatly.
