Based on who he says he is, he's been around off and on since maybe 2003 or 2006.

Most times just a big <S> and moving on is the best way to have fun.

Hang in there we like having you in the game.

I don't get this.  If you love the game, there's gotta be better ways to handle your discontent than quitting.  AH needs more people playing, not fewer.

When I have all of 2 hours to play the game, and that 2 hours is ruined by someone circumventing the spirit of the game to "troll" individual people, yeah the game isn't fun. Not worth my time and money to battle with someone who's sole purpose in the environment is based on ruining someone else's enjoyment of the game. 

I understand the difference between whining that i got killed in a game, and having my experience as a whole ruined by the actions of single player who's enjoyment is based purely on greifing other players.  BIG difference between players who are just darn good pilots and someone who's life force is rejuvenated from the frustrations of others.

He can support the game by himself for all i care. He can have 30 accounts and be perfect all by himself, him and cybro can have a jeep race around the bomber hanger. Not fun for those around him/her.

I'd switch countries, but once again this means that players AROUND the griefer must change to experience the intended joy of the game.

This person is not a griever. You make him/her a griever by letting anyone in a GAME under your skin. Yes you still have to change.... but the only change is not to have such thin skin. Some folks will feed off you if you let them. If you act as if it does not bother you, they will find someone else who does get bothered.

Oh and <S> it's a game.

indeed. I do enjoy when it exists as it was intended, and not abused. So you're right it is a game, but rules also make the game fair and enjoyable for all.  :cheers:

If its true that he is a griefer and gets off causing frustrations in other players, then aren't you giving him huge sense of validation by quitting, just because of him?

skyrr/starfox is the reason I'll be cancelling my sub. whomever it is, he/she is an infection on this game and community. period.

It's sad to see so much hard work and the great strides in AH3 to be ruined by a single player. And he IS ruining the game experience.

You could choose to ignore his antics.  I do.  He's hunted me several times when I kill him or if he dies trying to kill me.  Seems he does not like dying at all and requires you die as payback.  Rather childish, but why let that ruin the game for you?  Do you want to look back and remember you left the game because an overgrown child drove you away?

Whoever he is, it is easy to see he craves attention.  Want to get him to go away?  It is simple.

Ignore him. 

Don't threaten to quit the game. 

Don't PM him.

If he PMs you, don't respond.

Don't salute him. 

If he kills you, runs from you or to ack, don't go off about it on comms or text.

If you kill him, don't crow about it.

STOP posting about him on the forum. 

If he makes the #1 ranking, congratulate the guy who made #2.

If others start going off about him publicly, take them aside nicely and tell them the same thing I'm telling you here.

He's a gnat.  A nothing.  He isn't a legend.  He isn't even a folktale. He doesn't exist. He never did.

If you and others do this, you kill his only reason for being here.  For guys like him, it eats them up inside.

Just ignore him.  It works.

Good advise.
Take away what keeps them coming back and they will soon leave.

It's absurd to think that starfox is not skyrr.

Anyone can stop running their mouth at any moment. I mean look at me! I was a very very mouthy one for a bit, but for the most part now? I don't even talk, that is unless it's sawzaw. He's too fun to pick on.

what is funny is how grown men think that a single player can spoil their fun in this game. does that single player has that much power on you?  if you think he does, then you have bigger problems in life.  so ho ahead and quit, see a therapist.  really get help.

Well I am pretty sure that Starfox IS NOT skyr. I have heard Skyr on voice and was obviously not using a Modulator. Sure, he flies the same plane sets, more than a few also fly those same fighters. He has Always shown class, with me anyway! Several times he has killed me! Asked him where I screwed up (other than taking off), and he was pretty quick on the information. Then again, Skyr was almost as good at answering that situation, . Face it guys, we all have our favorite players to slaughter. In my opinion, why is ch 200 set for on default, as I have heard a few newer players that get kills on  old timer and then get practically abused about it. They had 200 selected and had to witness the rants. One towards him but he could see how prevalent that sort of "rant" is. Yup, he called BS and didn't get the full 2 weeks even. Can we not use PM's to jig folk?  Just saying, most rant about n

In practice a player can systematically ruin the gameplay of another. The ones that need to do that need the help imho.
