Hazed,
You harped on vulching 3+ times at the BEGINNING of your original post.
It sure sounds to me like there's more to it than mentioning it "on behalf" of some other players. Especially when your major gripe was the plane-set.
Spin it however you like.
About the only normal situations that I won't shoot at an enemy are:
* When he is airborne and missing a essential part to maintain controlled flight. I.E. an entire wing, tail or horizontal stab.
* When he is in a chute. The longer he is in a chute, the longer it takes him to become an effective threat again.
Other than that, I ruthlessly and mercilessly kill everything I see.
Chivalry is BS and only for those who are either trying to make others happy or trying to portray themselves as some kind of noble-gentleman-hero-wannabe, when in-fact they're just another dork playing on a computer (as am I).
In the exact situation that you described above, it would depend.
If a squadmate or countryman was approaching in a goon, no way would I let them up.
Otherwise, probably.

eskimo read it how YOU like.YOU are totally wrong.its your misinterpretation more than its my poor explanation.The vulch comments i made originally:
'Not allowing players the chance to launch even when no capture is in progress'
'NO vulching just for kills!!!but for a capture only'
couldnt have been any clearer and was just one comment amonst many i considered more important. call it whatever you like YOU ARE WRONG.It doesnt matter how many times i explain things to you you interpret it totally different to anyone else in this post.Do me a favour and stick to your own posts.I dont post in yours because i dont agree.If i agree i post an agreement.I dont post 5 bloody times telling YOU what YOU meant by what you said.
if you actually realised the original post is FIRST A LIST and then an explanation or comment on what each meant.ALL of them were mentioned TWICE minumum! YOU CHOSE to latch onto the vulch aspect alone not me.i also said
'A lack of interest in any organisation or missions etc.' AND
Squadron flying and tactics? Large bomber formations making the attack clear rather than solo milkrun behaviour in order to allow the few enemy on to have a chance of attack?'
also:
'Same kill no matter what attitude' AND
'allowing a severly damaged aircraft to ditch rather than totally destroy them as they scrape to a stop? do we want to piss off the few people we have in the CT?'
It couldnt be any clearer what my veiw was.I dont vulch people unless im on a capture.YOU just said the SAME BLOODY THING.stop pissing me off with your inane interpretations.spin? you dont know the meaning of it.I couldnt give a toejam what you THINK i meant.Im fed up with trying to drum it into your thick skull.
Ill make sure if youre online that i dont tell anyone to up safe. youre obviously one of these types who jump in and kill them regardless.Just the sort of MA mentality i despise.
When numbers are low in CT i tend to relax the kill or be killed attitude in order to get decent fights.I will allow people to get alt.I have had several fights in the ct with people where ive left 2 to fight alone until im requested to help.
You've never had this in CT?
Why dont we ask the others if they have done this?
Im 100% sure im not alone in doing this because ive talked to them on radio whilst its happening.1 on 1's allowing players to get off the ground even allowing an advantage when axis have 8 on and allies 4 in the BOB i organised a pure bomber mission with no escort and we TOLD the allies where we were going to attack, the 8 to 4 odds seemed fair bombers vs fighters and it worked really well,Everyone enjoyed it.Sure they died getting us one by one but they could climb back to us without fighter attacks.WE even kept the manifold at 40 so we didnt leave them behind!.when numbers are so low as they were theres not much point in capture as its uncontested.Uncontested capture is milkrunning.I dont do it unless im in there totally alone and theres nothing else to do, which i think has happened once!.
call this spin do you? i call it an explanation of how i like to play the game with a fairer ballance.
do you now understand the MEANING of the original post now? finally? Its not any one indiviadual thing or comment i want to be dragged up over and over, its the general lack of enthusiasm for any realistic behaviour or re-enactment.There seems to be no interest in it and yet on you come teling me youre doing exactly this with your squadron!!and at the same time berating me for wishing for it.WELL what do you know...you enjoy it too???? well this is what i want to see MORE of in the CT.Squadron flying etc but if we havent got the numbers its damn wrong to bring huge squads in and POUND the few guys trying to have fun who DONT have a squadron to fly with. I think you have just played the typical BB part of picking a single quote, taking it out of context and winding up the person who posted it by bringing it up over and over and adding your own interpretation.Well way to go.really productive and positively fun for me explaining myself over and over.
sheesh. what a waste of my time.
