Two Scenarios and a Short Quiz

no honor...no heart.....


I say instead of blood your veins are filled with koolaid.

People who really think this video game relates in any way to honor or heart need to step away and experience their real lives for a bit.

Yes if they become a threat.

Ill just leave this here http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,362970.0.html if ya watch the video you may recognize the 47 who cant shoot looked like i was a massive threat.

Vulching and picking are exactly the same to me, don't try to hold the moral high ground when your as guilty as the vulcher of unsporting play.

Ill admit i pick and i vulch and when heavily outnumbered ill take any shot i can but if i see 3 friendlies on 1 guy ill fly on by.

There have occasionally been situations where nearly every single friendly in my vicinity has been taken up trying to kill a very slippery single bandit, and I have taken it upon myself to execute the poor red guy. Not because I particularly wanted that kill or because I thought of the bandit as a threat, but because I knew numerous other bandits with altitude were probably coming in and that the tactical situation could turn very grim very quickly if I didn't take away their toy and free my own countrymen up to be of some assistance. That was my honest tactical assessment of the situation, and if that makes me a sinner, may cartoon-airplane god have mercy on my soul.

Yeah been there seen that perhaps even done it when i first started playing but now i feel if 3 guys cant kill him he deserves to live to fly home.

mmm wife of 20 years...6 kids.....think I experience plenty in real life....


so by your thinking...it is OK NOT to have Honor.....

interesting...

if you have NO honor ingame you will have no honor in life and Vice versa....

ALL games are played with Honor....

Honor is in every aspect of my life....

it is not something that can be turned off or on at will and if you think it is....then you have NO clue what Honor is.

To me a person can have honor, and class even while playing a video game. If they don't play with honor or class, then all they are is some pimped face kid in his mother basement hiding behind his computer. Just another interweb tough guy.

Completely agree. I think being a good sport rather than sulking is a good characteristic to have as well. Sadly that seems in very short supply with some.

Actually a video game with a certain level of anonymity is a great litmus test for the type of person you really are. It's not how you act when there are consequences for your actions. The true test is how you act when there is no one to police yourself but you.

Your personal honor relates primarily to how you care for and protect them, and meet your other obligations in life. Keeping your word etc. There is not too much much you can do in a video game to help or harm  it.

If you hacked Hitech's code to cheat, I would consider that fairly low, albeit unimportant against all the atrocities that go on in the world. And you would be banned and a non-factor anyway. Same thing if you broke the rules of engagement in a special event.

The problem, dear Ink, is that you and people like you often wish to make a laundry list of game tactics that you find distasteful, things which the creator of the game has explicitly allowed in his Main Arena, and then claim that your taste defines "honor". Dishonor is whatever thing Ink does not like, dishonor is violating some set of rules that no one voted on or agreed to obey. That is fairly narcissistic.

All I know is that once when I picked INK already engaged I heard a crack of thunder, and my house began to shake. Needless to say, I usually avoid his airspace.

   Hush Fugi,nobody likes you and your reputation proceeds you......

   Ok I always thought you were an OK Joe....  I guess I'm a nobody....

The people yammering about honor, courage, guts in a video game where no one ever really dies, in relation to violations of rules that don't actually exist, these are the actual "interweb tough guys".
