Yes the 190s roll fast but so do many other planes.

190 roll rate is reduced from RL in AH FFS!

This seems to me that old AH aces are pissed of because some newbies are learning things and getting better.

Someone accused me for stick stirring once in MA and I was sure I dont use that technique. Later I noticed that my stick has weird problem and it was getting worse all the time. It became too sensitive and finally it was impossible to fly with it. After reboot it came back normal.

Yesterday I shot down stick stirring 109 but I think that was even easier to kill because target stayed in direct flight path. But it looked funny..

I agree also. When I read the thread on this topic last week I hadn't seen it, or knew enough about it to recognize it. But, over the past several days I see it for what it is. It usually occurs when an nme is in dire straits with an nme close on him. Instead of using typical evasion tactics they will wobble, flop and do crazy unusual turns, which I take as a stall. They may drop suddenly out of control for a few thousand feet then recover below and behind.
I don't know if this is simply because they are new and don't know how to use evasive tactics or, are doing it purposely. I can say now though that it does happen a lot more now.
I don't agree with JoeCrips estimation that it usually happens according to ...ahem...rank in the arena (under 500 ranking), thats ridiculous and not a little bit snobbish

Human nature being what it is, would include those types who would do anything to win at all costs, regardless of ....ahem...rank
