Allegations

[FLS]

TA kills don't show in your stats. The bug is just on the list of last killed/killed by.

[SIK1]

Appears to me as you are flying an offline mission...    That's the only time I've noticed the 'invisible planes'
Never seen them in the MA.

Coogan

He's flying in a main arena. He lit up the friendly Brew that you see in his screen shot on page three.

Skuzzy already commented on it on page two.

Indeed, this looks like it was a death by killshooter, as per the logs.

[Soulyss]

I could be wrong but the way I read some of the comments it sounds like there is some confusion about the different arena settings.  If you're in the early, mid, or late war main arenas then killshooter is ON, any hits on a friendly aircraft will double back and inflict damage on the shooter.  But it is an arena variable that can be turned off, so it is disabled in the training arena as well as some custom arenas and special events. 

if you don't have web space to host the film I will offer to take a look and see if I can see anything that might explain it.  I don't have access to any of the logs or anything like HTC does but I'm happy to take a few minutes and see I can see anything and discuss it with you via PM.  Feel free to send me a private message here on the boards and I will send you my email address. 

W/out looking at film we're all just sort of guessing.

[Skuzzy]

In the attached image, from your film, you will see a view looking back from in front of Max (the Brewster).  Your plane is in the background, and you see your fire hitting Max on the wing.  From this point, you continued to hit Max's plane across the entire wing and fuselage.  I did not bother counting the hits, but it was numerous.

Once you did that, your plane was damaged beyond salvation and your tail broke off when you tried to pull up from the stall you suffered almost immediately after this.

This is the result of the 'killshooter' flag in the arena.  It is also fair to note, not all arenas have this flag set.  The Training arena does not have this flag set.

Common guys.  You all were new to this game at one time or another.  Cut him some slack.

[Max]

I knew somehow I'd get blamed for this one way or another.

Well, I started in AW at the age of 35. I reckon I was much less rash, excitable and paranold both then and when I transitioned to AH. I realize some of the new customer base apparently requires a great deal more patience and understanding than they, themselves, are capable of. I have a 14 yr old stepson. It's much the same.

Take away the Alt-F4 ritual of initiation, and this is what you get.

Yap.  He has paid a round of dues on this one.

I have to agree, not all players start at 30+ years old.  Seeing how evening and weekends numbers are down, I think it's important that we help new players.  To the op if you ever need help with something, look me up in the MA (Callsign Coprhead; make sure you spell it rights as there is another Copperhed in the MA).

Badangel has patience. Me and angel tangled with him and some other chap fo a good 10min in the TA.

The host now notifies you when you shoot a friendly and damage yourself with killshooter.

YES! 

[Ack-Ack]

There is no message if you die due to 'killshooter', but that is a good idea.  I have passed that on to HiTech.

Can you ask him if the message can be, "LOOK WHERE YOU'RE SHOOTING AT YOU DOLT!"?
