Monday Night Madness

***NO HOING!!!***


You should know by now if I start HOing it's for a reason, I took several tonite.  This one from BSB which I felt was fairly blatant and set me on a HO path hoping to get your attention (you did remark earlier about some others HOing but I guess it didn't register):




And BSB is frequent with those kind of sketchy ho/front quarter shots. I call him out almost every week. It may be his connection, but these are still shots that should be held off on a regular basis.

So, sorry, but not particularly sorry.

I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.

Now that is what I call Clobber College!

Its almost impossible not to HO in a 110. One of the best planes for HOs in the game. While I did get HOd a couple of times, I thought overall people were doing a decent job of showing discipline and not firing. Its always extremely tough to tell if a plane thats turning infront of you is trying to line up for the HO. If I can see them get nose on, ill pull off and avoid it, if I see that they cannot get a nose on me before I have a shot solution, than I have no choice but to shoot. In situations like this where its not technically allowed, I always make sure to get nose on nose to avoid any confusion. If you arnt nose on nose than chances are they might take a ahot. In any case, then you can call them out if they shoot.

or you couldve just typed it out and i wouldve told him to knock it off. i repeated it a bunch of times albeit via vox. im pretty good about putting out warnings and even calling out people by name. maybe after I stop running these kinds of events will people have an appreciation for not only what i did, but what i had to put up with as well.

Yo Jaeger!  You should know better than to think that!

Just keep doing what you're doing, and don't worry about complaints.  There will always be complaints.

Yeah Jeager don't stop! These furballs are super fun and actionable. My only wish is that you or someone could host it on Saturays between like 4-7 est. That would be a lot of fun for people on the weekends who cant always make it on Mondays and may not be able to find action in the MA during those times.

Simple solution: discontinue making changes to accommodate complainers.  They are the small minority of players.  It’s common knowledge about the most frequent HO complainer.  Seems it’s rarely an issue unless he’s in the arena.  What’s the worst thing that could happen?  He goes away or doesn’t show up next time and the arena is instantly more peaceful.

You’ve got a popular, weekly thing going on here, Gary.  It’d be a shame to shut it down because of one whiny HO complainer who basically amounts to background static on the radio. Don’t let it discourage you.  :aok :salute

 :salute all,
Agree with others. You shouldn't stop running these events, Jaeger. I believe a verbal warning to stop during HO is enough. During events, I occasionally get HO from a player or "semi" HO but understand mistakes happen,  no need for more actions.
Keep all participating in these events and for sure will improve our combat skills and define a fair MNM game...

I don't have the timeframe to make this most Mondays, but when I did it was fun.

You might consider running this in a player hosted arena, and maybe some non paying customers would get the hook set again.

Don't let the attitude of 1 ruin it for 15+- others.

The clear solution here is to remove the problem if it persists.

It's persistence has been around for the 25+ years I've been here.... so the answer obvious.

There is usually some type of drama revolving around this individual.

I think many think a HO is only a ho if ot is straight head on..12 to 12..

In MNM many call a ho anything forward of the 3 to 9 line..Shane is one of them..

He means well imo

The difference with you and most others, ZE, is a quick apology for an unintentional HO vs an instant whining rant.

sigh, been there, done that, do I need to do it again?  I'm perfectly capable of taking the very shots I call out.  Imagine how many more kills I'll get.  :evil:

kind of hard to type when the .rpt function is being abused again.   :rolleyes:

And enough people thank you for doing this, myself included.
