Okay... I've waited long enough

I made a thread about this very same problem years ago. You would be surprised about how many "furballers" came along and said crap like "oh another thread trying to tell people how to play the game". Game is full of hypocritical SOBs.

I concur. No fighter hangars means no vulches.  Makes me unhappy...

Must get my vulch fix!

Many years ago a wise pilot once said the goal of the game is to piss the other guy off.  Vulching is the quickest way to achieve that aim.

the problem with this thread is that you guys dont want fights, you want kills. when you do get a fight, you gang the guy with as many ppl as you can. just look at the 3 comments before mine for proof of not wanting a fight, but only kills. the game is not the problem, the players are.

The purpose of a fighter is to be a hunter--to kill the other guy.   Period.

You do realize that if one invests time into learning how to fight and then operates in a sector with a few of the same background against many who invest no time into getting better, the natural outcome is that sooner or later the sheep will be locally outnumbered by the wolves, right?

In other words, are they really ganging that one con or did he have friends a few minutes earlier?

You are familiar with humor, no?

...well...it works...

Vulching is lame.  I can understand...sort of...if you have a friend motoring into the town in a goon, and you're trying to protect him.  Otherwise, vulching is like picking the wings off flies, squashing toads, kicking dogs.  It might boost your kill score, but it doesn't contribute to the fight, and your kill score impresses only you.

vulching  lol  my voice is small in this matter for it was me who got vulched about 40 times straight. to me its only for a base take (capping the field when troops are on the way)

Nobody forces anyone to get vulched.  I don't see how it's even an argument.  LONG ago, a single CHog could de-ack a field, then hang around and vulch.   In the context of the MA, that would be called, being a noodle.  However, still completely "fair".  Now though, not so much.  I'm sure it happens, but not often.  Hell, it's next to impossible to get 2 or 3 out of 10 buzzing a field to actually try and kill ack.  Sure, some people will take advantage of a field take and vulch for no other reason than to vulch, but it's no different than using other's as bait or cherry picking a furball... exact same thing.  This is NOT the DA we're talking about. 

In the MA, if you're red, you're fair game, end of story.  Anyone and everyone is free to THINK otherwise... but they would be wrong.

agreed-I think--if you don't up-you don't get vulched
