I've flown with Ack Ack since he began flying, and I can't recall a single time EVER hearing him speak, to the point of pestering him about it, and offering him old mics etc.  He's told me various things over the years, he doesn't have a mic, his mic is broken, he's waiting on a new one...probably just to get me to stop bothering him about it.  Being in the gaming industry I'm sure Ack Ack could sort out the whole mic issue if he truly wanted to in about as long a period of time it takes to form the thought.  It's simple - He just doesn't use vox, and I can't really blame him considering how some act on it.

So I call BS on the accusation of him tuning to you and insulting you.  I think a retraction and apology is in order, especially since there is no film to back up the accusation.

I used to use vox on squad channel when the Raiders still flew but since I've been the only active and flying member for the last 5 years or so, no need to use vox on squad channel.  I use vox for other games that require voice communication for coordination but in AH, there is really no need.

Nope, it was him. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Been here since 2001 I have never heard one word from Ack Ack on vox.

I haven't heard ack ack speak and Ive.been playing since '09.  If he does ever talk I imagine he sounds like Ricardo Montoban.

Nah I hear him speak all the time, he's always saying "Stay thirsty my friends".   :D

All the Best...

This is one of the things we don't approve of in the squad, higheye strikes down hard on those who curse or talk smack on squad vox. No matter what their age is. But when it comes to pm's it is something the squad can not control.
It is sad that these things happen, but this is something we all know happens. I know that is no excuse, same as age is really no excuse for that matter.
Some players might think a cartoon name in a cartoon game gives them rights to do whatever they want, not saying that is the case in this particular incident but it is however the truth in many cases. I have personally never heard a bad word of any kind from phoenix myself, but I guess in the heat of frustration we all can do some bad things that don't put ourselves in the brightest light?!   :noid

I guess we'll have to do another round addressing these kind of things among ourselves within the squad, and hopefully in the future our squaddies will show everyone else the same kind of respect that we all want back in return.  :aok

I can certainly attest to this.....Higheye is one of those that always shows respect ingame win or lose......always puts up a fight..... even when he knows my KI84 is gonna shred his 51 :devil....he fights and does not talk smack or send Nasty PM's... I have had a lot of PMs back and forth with him....not one has ever been negative..........definitely one I respect.

And each sentence should be started with a capital letter, as well as commas in the appropriate places. Oh, and you spelled "addressing" incorrectly also.   :devil
