I thought you have to be playing for a side quite a long time to get the points from a reset. Like a kind of buffer period.

I reckon it needs to be half a day.

That's right Dowding. There is a significant time period one must be a member of a country in which to get those points. I beleive it is 12 hrs. A major fact which Swoop and a few others seems to have over looked.

Yep. And I think it's damn funny that those who changed sides in order to get perk points didnt actually get any.

Fact is that now in my time-zone the roster usually looks like 70 rooks and both Bish and Knight 45 and That shows in gameplay. Guess we all should go to rooks if it helps ?

Strikes me ironic that Swoop might be concerned with the possibility that someone might change sides for points, but seems to have no problem with someone intruding and spying on a private RW channel/conversation.

I find this practice much more offensive then someone trying to get some easy points.

Dago, before you accuse somebody of spying, why not check your rw list to see who is on that ch, I have been on a ch and had others show up and start using it with out knowing I was there. untill I gave a might check.
as for my self, I take a look at the rw list to see who is on ther ch.

I didnt accuse anyone of spying, I am just acknowledging something he said himself, with no indication of indignation at the practice.

Change at the start of a tour......not 10 minutes before a reset to get the perk points. And here's how I know.......a certain squadron were discussing this on an RW channel just before they moved (and the reset). Someone else was on that RW channel......and no-one noticed."

Obviously he is aware of spying. He said so.
What he didnt say was he found this as appalling as I would have.

Interesting set of standards.

LOL.

How is it spying to be on a RW channel all by yourself and suddenly have YOUR OWN COUNTRYMEN drop on channel and start talking?

Spying is changing countries and reporting back all you see/hear to someone who cares.

If that is how it happened, it would be easy to understand. It would be tempting to be a silent participant, if they dropped in on you and not the other way around.
