Some of the best fights ive had, were against  people i flew with the day before, and then the day after......flew with again....no one butt hurt, no hard feelings....dear lord its just a game    :aok

Started out Rook years ago and never thought of side switching.....joined the 80th and it was like someone switched on a light....there are 2/3rds more people here that i can laugh with and fly with (and can watch me crash in flames  :D)....I regret to this day staying country loyal so long.  Low numbers and the best fight, thats what its all about (for me)  I actually get bummed when i see certain fellow non country loyal person on my side in green.....then i know that I wont get to tangle with him.....But in the same breath, its usually me and him defending alone against the hordes...so it all works out in the end  :aok

I would disallow anyone with less than 2 stars to control a CV group.

Anyone with less than 1 star would not be allowed to see their team's noe positions.

I am plagued sometimes by people who have no stars, but are hungry for information about my altitude, direction, load, target. Some of these guys tell me not to bomb a factory because they will do it, or will offer to gun but on inspection these guys are missing the enemy 100%. Interestingly, these no-star players are often re-routing CVs as well.

 :rofl :rofl :rofl........didn't take long....did it...... :old:

Why is that?  How does gaming the system to get the stars make me not a spy?

Heh.  Well, I guess that might explain why I turned off the stars thing.
