Dang WTH Happened to the Numbers???

To show his support?

You mean troll the boards.

[Slade]

Probably more so than with those you take an accusational stance.

Its your $. Fly any way you want.

That is why HT has to control the game..... the players can't. It just turns into a cesspool. The BBS is proof of that.

You're way too fixated on the kills landed message. Probably more so than with those you take an accusational stance. Players know about the rearm pad. Players can surmise how some large kills landed messages came to be without it ruining their AH experience. The number of inconsequential elements of this game that some are willing to attribute toward it's supposed demise is rather amusing. 

I once landed 27 kills in a Pony with 2 bombs and rockets no rearms.

another I dropped bombs on vh just as it respawned, 12 gvs dead. laughed so hard I crashed my pony.

He's implemented very few 'control' measures.

Kill shooter - obviously necessary to keep griefer players from shooting players on the same side.
Perk points - keeps the arena from becoming all 262s 24/7.
ENY - imposes aircraft restrictions on sides that outnumber their opponents by a certain amount.

I can't think of any other 'game control measure' and it seems to me that HT is more of a 'let the players do what the players do' kind of guy. I am too. That doesn't mean I find everything players do palatable. It means I have more respect for leaders than demanders. There's still a few of those in the community.

ENY is another.....  and now removed, return to cesspool.

In the old days when there were less options of games to play that could fly. But not any more. Internet bullys thrive, the "play how you want" gets more and more players frustrated and that leads them to quit. If the game doesnt change it WILL continue to just fade away.

While you look at these posts as complaints or whines those of us that post them look at them as help for a game we love. We are just trying to help keep the game going.

Why are you here?

He is another long time player who hates to see the game he loved playing die is my guess.

Ahh so he is playing and not just trolling the boards.

WTH happened to the numbers??, less than 100 players in three massive countries?

Some stinky mace or was it fighter ace dorks with poor hygiene came over in the first half of the 2010s and stank the place up. We have done run out of Fabreeze, the stains are still on the walls, and the tap water is still brown.

How the heck are the squads doing???

Most are on life support .... Mine due to the aforementioned stinky mace guys that we let use our restroom ... once .... we ended up having to burn the whole old club house down ... couldn't even save the stripper pole as a really Kruel person from the stinky mace gang tried do a sexy dance routine on it and left it smelling like stale beer and day old tuna.

That's tough

Fly the way you want.

Caveat
Should a significant number of paid users routinely find issue with a game feature, that naturally would warrant investigating changing it.

Give the percentage that you perceive.

In many cases the rearm pad is the root cause of folks landing 3-10 kills in a plane per "sortie".

Some fly really careful and keep rearming.  Just say'n.

since wep is no longer replaced when rearming its prob less common than you think.
