country stereotypes ??

Mr. Pot.... I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Kettle.

I flew as a faithful Bish for 7 years, then went to Knights for the last four years.  There is no difference.  But yes, the Rooks are alt-monkeys.

Monkeys are smart!

So you have never flown with those friends. Gotcha, youre absolutely not missing any part of the fun this game offers 

Also the funny thing is, youre just one of "those" individuals 

what makes you think i have never flown with them.  and I'm not like you.  i don't hold grudges because things or players are not the way i want them to be.

As long as I'm not flying on bish. 

I agree! Bish are poo






Oh... wait..

Guessing "i hardly ever switch sides" means that you stay on one side and hardy ever move - guessing, you can wing with players from an other country 
I dont hold grudges either, but rather laughing on you, as youre acting exactly like what youre throwing at me.
 

P.S. done that too. Tongs could tell the story, was fun

I wonder how you wing with friends when you don't play the game.

I've flown Bish and Alchemist for the 3 years I've been here off and on.  Reading on his thread has got me in the mood to do some side jumping to see what the bigger AH world is like.  The thought is similar to stepping on to a foreign planet

Knits smash and forget to grab....they drop everything and then forget why they were doing it and do something else. 15mins later remember what they were doing and try to finish it...but alas they forget this again..... I think this is commonly known as dementia

 

 

Three-up would love to see you come Knit for a tour and drag Nikonguy over here with you.  Would be a blast winging with you gents

well in the past I used to switch every hour, ask some of your squadies, we used to switch together to have some great times.  actually we used to get a lot of people mad too, but what the heck we did have some good times  .

    I keep reading all these threads, and seeing in game comments about 1 country talking smack about the other country(s). It's really starting to get old !  "oohhh the Bish horde" or " the Rooks are Alt monkeys". Are there daily meetings where each country plans their code of conduct that im unaware of ?  are there country specific login messages that tell the players how to play for each country ? 

      C'mon guys, they are freaking chess piece icons. nothing more. All sides HORDE, All sides HO, All sides Climb for advantage. I've played for all 3 sides and heard the same complaints from each. Each chess piece is comprised of players from all over the world. from all different walks of life. no one side is guilty of any specific type of play.

     

The bish mentality spawns from ancient history when every new player was bishop by default. That made them usually the largest country and they learned to use raw numbers to overpower the defences. Even after the assigned country became random for new players, years after that I remember seeing a steady jilt in numbers such as bish 180, knighs 120 and rooks 80. This often lead to both bish and knights targeting rooks in huge hordes, especially closer to the end of the war when only 2-3 fields were remaining. It was totally dumb to play because for a large part of your prime gaming time you couldn't even take off with all fields being vulched constantly.

Thanks M. I’ll talk to the Boss (JR). It would be a hoot. I’m all for it. And your crew are on at some of the times we are. And you’re the sort of pilots I was referring to in the Knights. Top skill, have a go and take a win or loss with manners.

As for Nikon, he is currently in love with War Thunder. He is “backgrounding” on our Facebook page. Apparently there are aimbots in there which you can download. The last post he was flying around in a bi-plane being shot at by Korean War era jets, so it may be a little short in the authenticity department.

But and this is the thing, he did say that there were 50,000 people online with over 1,700 battles going on. Screenshots look awesome too. And he says the flight model is good and much improved. Wrath/Banshee is full on “born again War Thunder” and has cancelled his AH account which is a real shame – good stick, top guy and great squaddie. Didn’t make a sound nor post a self-seeking BBS entry just left. That’s the shame. And that’s one I know.

It’s bit off track, but there’s a few self-proclaimed big fish now and their percentage becomes more when numbers decrease, and that translates to the forum. AH reminds me now of the frog in the pot. Put a frog in boiling water he’ll jump out. Put him in cold water and gradually heat it up, he’ll stay there until he boils.
