Is there a CT forum for a reason?
« Reply #30 on: February 12, 2002, 11:23:55 AM »
Heheh Hblair, looks like we really need to be taught how to fly our LW planes - apparently we aren't flying 'em boringly enough :D.

Was in CT yesterday: best time I've had in AH in the last year. Not that many there, but me, Hajo, hazed and Saw barely had time to grab to 6k before the enem swarmed over us. Historical setups, no Golly-geened AWACS dweebery - gotta keep SA up.

MA is for those who cannot handle the CT :D

Blah blah, whatever Lazs.  The CT is another arena and some enjoy flying there.  Some don't, including you.  That about sums it up nicely.

Your trolling is becoming less entertaining.  I understand that you're doing it a lot lately, and being a card carrying member of the AARP like you are means you tire easily.  Perhaps you should take a rest for a while and start fresh in a week or so with renewed energy?

I know I haven't payed a lot for the ticket, but I at least want to be entertained when I click on that thread link to see you antagonizing more willing fish...err, victims.

So I was in the CT the other day as it was my only choice.  My road runner service is out and the crappy dial up I was able to find only works for a hand full of minutes before it locks up.  I had no chance in the MA but it was stable to at least get airborne in the CT.

Come off it!  I was worried about the CT types trying to turn the MA into something that it’s not.  That didn’t happen.  There is a whole other arena for it.  So why the heartache?  If it gets pimped in the MA or on the general discussion on the BB what harm is in that?

I wasn’t able to get my full fix in the CT but it was my connection not the arena.  If you don’t want it don’t go.  Saying “it’s not gonna work because, or you all are trying to do this and not that” is pointless.

If you don’t like it, don’t fly it.  Quit being so concerned over someone else’s style of gaming.

look... you guys aren't gonna make many points by singing the praises of the "complex" 109/190 FM or the action packed nature of the CT.  Nor, can you expect any other reaction than polite, embarassed looks when you explain the complex and everchanging nature of "allied vs axis"   for those who have fought in allied vs axis arenas more than a couple of months it is blindingly obvious.

If you wish to get any respect for your views you should have a little intelectual honesty.

Look... if allied vs axis is the only thing that floats your boat or if you simply get more out of reduced icon/radar that't fine but be aware that most are aware that it is no more realistic and that it is very limited.

lazs is going to tell us how to be respected and intellectual.

And that "area arena" works how lazs?

I love you man. Too retarded to even know you're retarded. If I was gonna be a retard, I'd wanna be like you.

Bah that sounded mean, but you say some ignorant things lasz.

If you think all 190's and 109's fly the same, you are more ignorant than I thought. They might to you in your world, but there's more to it than that.

Suppose you set up the "Area Arena" concept of your's, what would be where?, what would seperate them? Would the planes be divided by year or competitiveness? Please post your "area" idea here in detail. I want to see exactly what you're talking about. :) You're always speaking critically of everything in an arena you don't even fly in, how would it be set up if you had the keys?

[edit]
BTW, I flew the warbirds HA for a year or so while you still played that game. Don't recall seeing you there one time. Don't you have to actually *fly there* to claim you have experience? Was it because you had trouble seeing out the back of the F6F or F4U? [/edit]

what don't you like about an area arena?    What about the CT would be better than it?    How would the CT offer more "choice"?  How would CT fights be more varied than "area arena" fights?  How are you going to work the early war planes into your "anything goes" CT setup?   Only the new guys hafta fly em?  Are they the "punitive" rides or would you have to go back to an RPS?  And if you did go back to it.... even you could see the limitations.   Those who like early war will be stuck in an endless BOB scenario that those who hate early war will shun.   Wait till you try to do an early war allied vs axis PAC!   LOL

still... I wouldn't worry too much about the retarded thing tho.   your allmost there.   A little hard work...  some turtoring..   special classes...  I'm sure something can be done.  And gosh darn it... who cares?  People like you anyway!  And I'm not just saying that.

Jeeez lepaul who peepee'd in your cherios this morning?  You would have really loved my failed attempt at an HA  a couple of years ago.   Anybody remember that?  NO icons (well that was on the honor system) and NO radar, mid war European setting.  We had a few days of good fights but only about 15-20 would show up so I gave up :D  made for some tense action though.....

I remember that. Was a lot of fun. Very nerve racking and tough environment  too :)

But imo you did not fail. It was the lack of official support and where AH was in it's development point.

...and this has what to do with the lovely *area arena*  ?


Does this mean you're NOT going to explain in detail the "area arena" idea? Pretty obvious you don't want to have to give proposals, only criticize. Who would've expected this out of you?

Where would you play? 20 players or 450?

I would take the 20 LePaul. Lots of great folks in the MA, but not my cup of tea.

But the CT staff/folks are clicky.

Cheap shot LePaul.  You owe them an apology. You big enough to do that?
