Man acks are no different from other parts of the game, some people fly bombers at 35k so noone will catch them, some fly their C-hog 5k above all else and uses his friends as baits so he can pick easy kills.
This game is nothing about fair fights, its about the easy kills.

When I shoot down the bombers at 35k, I get him on my killboard and on his killboard it says: Killed by Zoney

When I shoot down the high alt C-Hog, I get him on my killboard and on his killboard it says: Killed by Zoney

If you want to tank, go ahead.
If you want to use manned guns, go ahead.
If you want to climb to 35k every flight, go ahead.

I log in to find a fight in the least amount of time I possibly can. Who the heck has time to sit around all day? I don't and even if I did, I hate foreplay and the above reeks of time being wasted. I know, I know, don't complain as the game has changed.

You're probably right, and that is probably the reason I haven't played at all this year. Excessive foreplay in a game sucks!

When the P47-N was first released I dueled a G10 at 42K who was up there looking for bombers his unhappy PM pointed out. The next PM as he waited for his wreckage to hit the ground, was something about I wouldn't have won that HO if he had remembered the MK108 load out. The G10 flew like a dump truck at 42k while the P47-N flew like a spit9. His only strategy narrowed down to HOing on each merge.

The only problem Del, is that if someone or something does not spark a conflict, like a base capture or strat target, the fights would be even harder to find.  I am not saying that you need to participate in the initiative, but it does really take all types.  Well, actually it doesn't but not enough folks that simply want to just go at head to head action in the MA.  Last few times that I was there, I found that even seems to be true in the DA strange enough.
