Some guys are just to much

Sorry to hear this too.

I have tried to go into the MA a bit lately (my ACM really has suffered after 3 months), and missed the call for the TA. I wouldn't let any one person stop me from doing anything I wanted to do, even your "friend".

Another thing that will help you is to get your student on private and get him to put you on private- this will keep anyone from hearing your comms and eliminate the unwanted assistance. Better still, Roger Wilco allows voice transmission (though I hope your student speaks "Swedish Cook"  ).

Hope this helps!

Crabofix: I can empathize with the feeling of trying to make somthing fun, only to have critics show up and tell you how much your screwing up, and that you should do stuff differently.

BTW What type of lockup are you getting. I.E. Does it require a hard reset? If so disable agp support in directx.

 Ive had quite a bit of success with lockups by running disc cleanup before I signe on. I have 64megs of ram and I dont think it is enough. So I clean out temp memory before I play. I still get on now and then, but they are not constant like they were before.

Crabo,

Dont let the know-it-all get to you.  I have also gone into the TA and helped a few people despite not being an official trainer.  The knowledge that I was able to bring someone up a notch on the AH skill ladder is all I need to keep doing this "unofficial" training.  

Although I have never run into this situation myself (I typically either get the other individual on RW or tutor on a private channel) Im sure this person meant well.  

If you are a man (as I know you are), let it slide like water off a ducks back.  If you are a compulsive, egocentric and take things personally (like I am   ), hunt them down and kill them repeatedly and mercilessly in the MA!  LOL.

On second thought...just let it go!  

-Ding

Thank you for helping out.  We Trainers can't always be there, and any help regular folks are willing to give is MORE than appreciated.  You don't have to be some uber-pilot (I'm certainly not!) to be able to help new-comers.  A willingness to help and a good attitude are the main requirements to be an effective trainer.  I expect Pyro to be looking for trainers for this new tour soon, so if you like training, please apply!

If someone is acting in-apropriately in the TA, a private note to me or Pyro is the best way to deal with it.  You don't have an email registered, so I can't contact you directly.  If you wouldn't mind, please drop me an email so I can get a few more details.

Again, thanks for helping out.

Crab, I am surprised someone didnt remind you of the one thing that will quickly deal with an issue like this.  Squelch the guy and have your "student" do likewise.  Then the dweeb can make all the dumb and unwanted comments he wants and it will only waste his time and not bother you.
