Just gonna drop this here...

[Animl-AW]

I get the occasional urge to log on early mornings when the odds are 28 vs 5 vs 3. I have to wipe the idea out of my head that I will stop the horde myself. Never mind the map, I just look to kill a million of them as many times possible.

These folks flying in day in, day out with the same ol, same ol hording gives me the perception that they are not having fun but just do what they do to grief everyone. Shame we cant get 10 more each day on each side to put up resistence.

THIS!!! ^^^^^^^***

+5

What a miserable life to enjoy ruining fun of others every damn day. Hey can therefore they will. Such a selfish mindset

Here’s why AWACS sucks. If I’m on the team with three. I can disrupt and harass the side with 28 and have some fun doing it. I’m gonna die…a lot…but I’m gonna take some with me and have fun with the challenge. AWACS allows all 28 to either avoid me or dog pile me every time and every place I show up.

When I see these numbers now, I know anything I do is a waste of time and therefore I’m more inclined to just go read a book. Stop punishing me for wanting to keep things interesting.

I don’t punish you. We all obsess over something. Some obsess over me for god sakes.

But ya, I’m at that point too. As long as we remain under critical mass it can only get worse. They chase off critical mass, catch 22. I’m not angry when I do other things. I’m not angry I wasted my weekend when I do. The only ones who debate is are the ones doing it. Shocker a robber never admits to stealing the money, they borrowed it

HT did something because there IS a problem.

You don’t punish me. HT does. For some reason, people don’t seem to understand how bad this one setting is for all of what ails us right now. It’s not the sole reason but so many issues are exacerbated by it.

ENY
Offense
Defense
Plane selection
SA
Player exodus
…On and on and on

I obsess over it because there’s a thread or two about ENY and suddenly there’s code to address it. Meanwhile there’s a setting that might take 10 minutes to change/test to something that worked for over a decade and…nothing. Not even an acknowledgment. No PM. No “I’ll consider it.” No “Shut up LiMak”. AWACS went too far and absolutely broke the balance of the air game in favor of hordes. So people seek green darbars instead of red ones. They run at the first second of danger because they can see it from the other side of a grid. Entire evenly matched foes wait for idiots like me to cross imaginary lines in the air because no one wants to be the first one swatted or used as bait. It’s made this a combat game where people are afraid of combat unless they have guaranteed overwhelming advantage dished up to them on their clipboard.

Well it’s not first on the list of needs to be done, yet, that I know of. Never say never

All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.

  I love being a Knight but will say I do and am enjoying the auto side switch.   Still meeting/flying will cool people.   And getting to fly fun planes is a perk.

I wish there was a who's screen name = callsign.   I don't recognize most of these people are by screen name.


<S> 

[mERv]

BTW, knits pay $15 to have fun too.
Your fun should not impede the fun of others to the magnitude you do it.
You left Knits 3 bases to fly from tonight. It’s become habitual and sad. You really don’t care how much harm you cause the game or players who log off. Life is all about you.

Tje one who talk about numbers do it the most. Whatsumatter you?

Has it become that bad since I disappeared back in June? Dont think I will be playing enough to counter that everyday but I will keep this in mind when I do. Who was the guilty party?

It got stupid.
Used to be weekend GBs on knits like a religion.
Summer numbers at prime time were still not bad.
But oh no, that wasn’t enough, they started doing it almost every night.
That’s when we started having trouble getting above 100.
They did it anyway. They just excused it away…, and laughed of course.

HT plans to limit how many bases a country can take from another.

If he has to set limits ya know it got bad enough, he’s not willy-nilly with settings.

BTW HT is back to updating.

Just a drive-by reply to avoid acid drips.

Never understood all the crying about getting beat up.  So what if you have less bases to fly from, you still have a base to attack.  Start taking your land back, regardless of where the front line is.  Enjoy the game, just because you are losing doesnt mean you have to be broken.

exactly. crybabies. Catering to crybabies is what ruins games.

[Animl-AW]

Ask those that log off because of it. I still play, I also watch the numbers dump. So you might be Tarzan with air pumped chest on the winning side, but you have less targets

Less numbers breeds less numbers. You’re now not even hitting critical mass.

So, it kinda depends on your POV. The tough guy act doesn’t mean crap to the 15+ that log off.

They aren’t so much crybabies as the two countries are just Ah**s

I get it  “life is all about you”

Nothing like crybabies cryin about crybabies. Lol

Why should ENY cater to late night logins who cry snout ENY?

Some player cries about my flyin.

Kleenex must be s good stock investment

I don’t switch sides to a GB side for easy kills with 15 wingmen against 5. Which is what point mongers  do

I’m more or less with you on this sentiment. But getting land back when it’s 40 (two teams) on 10 (single team) is just not likely to happen.

I also don’t agree that any team is being picked on in particular.

I honestly want to go up against the side with numbers. They’re going to win but I can try to make them pay. What I despise is being converged on or outright avoided by members of the horde before I can even close the distance with the first contact. This is what ruins it for me. Not that I’m outnumbered. Not that my team is losing. Not taking territory. It’s that I’m not fighting on even footing. I have the disadvantage of being outnumbered but I’m also being singled out trying to do so.

Intil recently nits have been the target 5-6 nights out of 7

Dar nor ENY doesn’t bother me. Therefore they are crybabies. Lol

Number drop bothers me. That should bother everyone. You have no buffer.

150-200 in the arena GB wouldn’t happen like that
