With respect... What's your reaction if someone calls you arrogant and describes your opinion as 'garbage talk'? Most people dig in and defend their point of view to the death. I've done it and only later reluctantly admitted that the other guy had a point. Is it not enough to say that you personally disagree and give the reasons why? IMHO, you will win a lot more people over to your point by persuasion than abuse.
Just saying...

AH is not AW and as soon as AW'ers like myself discover it, we'll stop asking for things that were in AW and get about to figuring what this game is all about and taking over ;)  In the meantime, all you *oldhead* Aces need to just tune out the whining and stop adding to it with your own whining.

HTC knows what they're doing. They know what their vision for the game is and, to a certain extent, they're willing to let us all contribute ideas on how to make the game better. Just figure this out, and soon; YOU don't get to choose who belongs to the community, *IT* does.



Leave it to a rotor-head to make the most sense :p

Along with that huge influx we've also saw a similar increase in idiots and jack asses....

Most accurately fits my thoughts.

Aces High is a competitive game there is always going to be some junk on channel 1. Some guys do it to get in your head, some just because they're stupid. There is no need for a new arena to try and seperate the "nice" players from the "mean" ones.

Yes, there are a lot of amazinhunks in the arena at $14.95. There were also a lot of amazinhunks in the arena at $30. We could dig up some real choices threads on this BBS of some "vets" totally losing their $h!t.

The real question is; do you have to like everyone you're flying with? I would argue that you do not.  

No ranks or perk points can equate to killing a major league a-hole, especially when you know he hates dying to your guns.

Sure its the missions with squadmates and such that leave us with the nice memories and other warm fuzzy stuff. But without the amazinhunk contigent to fight against the game loses its edge.  

Aces High is built on virtually killing someone else, and human nature hates losing. Whatever you do to the arena is never going to completely remove that tension. Even removing channel 1 will just force the junk to spill onto the BBS.

I've seen this kind of crap more times than I care to count, and there is NO point in it other than to be devisive and cause trouble. To come out and accuse AW players of causing the problem, and to suggest a price increase to weed out the undesirable poor trash doesn't deserve any persuasion, but a squeak slap upside the head.
