Yes, its pretty obvious after watching 200 today that rank and k/d are being using as statistical evidence of skill.  Its laughable.  Having proxies count at all must be a generational thing.  Free, unearned "stuff" is better than "stuff" I worked for.  Even making an argument for it is embarrassing to watch.

Well said  :aok

Been on a cruise for over a week. Get back today and what do I find as I log into the forum? This thread... Still going strong.

well i will admit i have bailed but then again i am a weak player and most on here are not. the 1 thing i do is pm the proxy and let them know why. sometimes i am needed somewhere else after a bombing run its just flying back time consuming. or there are times im just bored with the flight but still i always pm the proxy and apologize. i know a lot of players are only score hungry and i understand their reasoning.. but keep in mind you skilled players us newbies sometimes get tired of feeling like target practice for you. so take your proxies and my humble apologies and if you dont get a proxy then you were to late to respond anyways
1 Of these days you will regret shooting me down.

Oh no man.  You can't do that...your score will get hurt

Not really.  Depends entirely on how you fly it and how successful you are at doing so.  The key here is the game allows the flexibility for each individual to define what success is.

i.e. If Vraciu wants to value proxies, let him do so.  If you want to value slow ACM waltz at treetop level, by all means do so!

Wrong answer champ as even the Hitech agrees with Changeup.    You must have some dreams that would have made Timothy Leary proud.

Yes, because Hitech is ALWAYS right.    

I forgot that he was infallible.  One would think you consider him Jesus.  

 :rolleyes:

And as a pilot I know that most of us think Jesus is only our FO, but I am fairly certain even HT doesn't think he is perfect, "champ".

(Where do I go to join the "If I didn't think of it/agree with it then it must suck" club?  Oh never mind.  I found the FOUNDER.  You might be the VP.)

A problem has been identified.  A solution has been offered.  It is like the death penalty.  It certainly deters the one you put in the chair.  That's victory enough.  Bombing and bailing is a plague.  At least those who try to fight against it deserve SOMETHING other than frustration for their efforts.

Now go back to burying your head in the sand and pretending there is no problem.
