Btw "landing bonus pts" was a player requested item that the FSO Team implemented. You guys asked for it. Just saying.  ;)
So landing bonus points is a legitimate reason to avoid combat altogether?

It's an incentive to try and fly a little more like you would in actual combat and place value on the pilots.

Heck no it's an incentive to not just "throw away" your plane, that's all. Fight but rtb...unless you were Kamikaze...that was the idea.

Is it just me, or wasn't Viper on a soapbox this summer about culling the number of FSO targets to get MORE fighting in an area???

When it's obvious a group will take it in the shorts because of the rides. And that group is willing to show up in force and gut it out for the rest of us. Find some way to reward them for their sportsmanship even if it's only a big round of applause and thank you as a post from the Host's of this establishment. Even make up some signature stickers like "I took it like an FSO Hero!!" FSO has a lot of unsung hero's who care about FSO enough to saddle up and make the evening bright for others.

And have a big bucket of monster barff for the snowfalkes who can't man up. If SFO was really about score and winning, no fun people would show up.

I can attest over the years I've taken it a few times like an FSO hero, and in the face of all my good ride bad ride grumbling, I'm here for my fun friends.

Yall's establishment throws a good hoootinnanny... :salute  :huh :O ;) :D
