Kruel being compared to Redbull, okay too far.

Redbull was very motivated to learn and get better, Kruel is also the same way. How is that comparison anyway too far or disrespectful to either pilot. They fight different fights but to say they are similar in that they want to learn isn't wrong and shouldn't be frowned upon...helps build the community up.

What's wrong with 5K?
Nothing DramaBoy. I'm asking if it's ok with him and Kruel...alt really doesn't matter to me but I know some would rather it be higher for more realistic altitudes which is fine.

Stop looking so hard at everyones comments, it's got to be stressful.

5K?

I'm fine with 5k, or whatever altitude everyone agrees on. This probably isn't the best place to hash out the details; I'll send a group PM to Kruel, you, and Krupnski and we can go from there.

Kruel was easily one of the top 5 pilots skill-wise during his time in FA. Heck, he outflew Bruv with his (then) 40-some odd Aces and then let him go to continue on to 50. Kruel's the single reason that Bruv even reached 50 Aces. If you think he's good now, he'll still be 20x better once he's at full capacity. And it's not a matter of learning, it's simply adjusting tactics to this game.

I don't frequent the MA much, but I have never understood why anyone would be afraid or hesitant about entering into a 1 vs 1 with anybody. It's just a game! I haven't been in the DA in a very long time, but even when I lost a duel, which was most of the time, it was still fun.

 :lol  To me it did look like you were questioning 5K rather than suggesting. My bad!

I wasn't attacking you...I asked what concerns you had with 5K.  I honestly do like to get everyone's perspectives on these things.  Some duelists seem to have a concern with anything above deck merge.  I was curious if you were one and your opinions....

Calm down, dude...I don't bite all the time!  :lol

Kruel's a good stick and a fun guy to fly with.  Very motivated to learn, compete and excel.  And I for one did understand where you were coming from on this one....I do not see it as disrespectful in any way.

Now if only Kruel would get out of the girly man LA and fly the 110 he'd be perfect!   :aok

;)

Ah I thought you were comparing their skill. Was completely my miscomprehension.

This is Aces High, no disrespect meant to be tossed at all. Although you have adjusted quickly to the game and have adapted as fast as you have doesn't mean he will or ever will. I am not saying he won't because he has learned a lot since the first time I dueled him back when he first started. Even then, he could tell you, I was trying to recruit him because of the potential I saw in him.

But there is a wicked learning plateau in this game, although there is always something to learn sometimes it could take awhile to get that knowledge perfected or even near decency. I've been flying forever and I still suck at everything except trash talking, hell I even suck at that. I really fly the game to get a laugh out of people on 200 and country chat. Probably wouldn't fly if 200 channel didn't exist.

BTW...I don't think Junky or Bat were throwing out flamebait, but rather were responding to what they believed was flamebait from me. 

No harm no foul.  :aok
