My Policy For "Check 6's"

It goes the other way around too.

Sometimes I'll put a helluvalot of bullets into a bad guy and peel off to conserve 'e'.  Sometimes there's no visible damage on the guy whatsoever (this happens a lot when I'm driving the F6F).  A minute later, I'll see the guy with 3 or 4 friendlies on his tail.  They shoot him down and I get the kill.  Maybe there should be an attempt at revamping the scoring system.  I know I've been accused of 'kill stealing' at least 3 times in this scenario in the last month or two.

I know kill stealing can and does happen, but why give a toejam?  Do the scores really matter?  Do you judge yourself by the rank that the HTC webpage assigns you?  I've found that it's more fun to just squelch channel 6, find a wingman, and fly.

geeze... when someone steals my kill I mention it to my squaddies.   To use the six call feature for revenge is childish in the extreme.  What a baby.   you should join a LW squad as serious and chjildish as you are.

Have to agree with muckmaw. Get over it. The 6 calls are just stupid. Had somebody think it was EZLee or something like that accuse me of stealing a kill. I couldn't care less who gets the kill. I was trying to clear another Knit's tail, that's all. He squeaked about it for 5 mins on radio. Shortly after I saw him get jumped by 3-4 bish, I let him go it alone, didn't want to be accused again of stealing his kill. :) Same thing happened again a little while later. Funny really. I'm a team player, can't bomb very good but do when needed and fly goons sometimes. I always try to help a fellow Knit, except for EZLee. :p Guess it works both ways joecrip.

Well, wtf am i supposed to do, when A select few morons decide to follow me around and steal my kills? I have asked them to kindly leave me alone, and stop stealing my kills. Anyway, the check 6 thing has been working. A few people in the MA yestdaerday said...

"Joe is check 6 attacker"
"JoeC is drving me crazy"

When i hear these things, all i think is: A little justice done, for the victim of a kill steal.

As i said, out of every three times i shoot someone down, once it is stolen. That is a very unacceptable rate.

BTW, i am not worried about my score. Check my K/D, i think they are like 1.5 or somthing like that. Trust me, if i were score hounding my K/D woundt be 1.5. I am just very tired of this happeneding.

"...Its not about score as much as some fediddlein pos that cant get a kill on his own....".

Actually it IS about score.  Nobody, including you or Joe would care less about kill stealing if it didn't affect your score.

LOL. Why would I even vent about something I dont remember.
Maybe you shot me while I was giving the tempest a spin. Guess what? I probably didnt even notice it was you. I only read the buffer when its red or purple letters. 1 and 6 are squelched.

You see, thats the problem. You are so pathetic that losing perks or getting kills in a video game is important to you. You have come so low that to feel better about yourself you need recognition from an A.I telling you got a kill in yellow letters. So you think it must also be important to everyone else. You think You shooting my ugly perk ride is an event that I will remember for a month, because you would.

Guess what buddy...

I've done this in the hellcat too... You pump a bunch of .50s into a guy, but don't want to kill your e so you break off. Later, you get the kill (you earned it after all). And the guy who "thought" he should get the kill assumes that you riddled the corpse. It's pretty funny.

Cool!  Do I get some type of award or something?  Maybe a trophy, a plaque, a certificate of some type, or wait maybe one of those little gold starts.  Yeah, I think that’s it one of those little gold stars.  That way I can stick it on my monitor for every kill I steal from you.  By the way you can send it in care of…

You’re still a tool at,
OMG you’re a big tool lane,
The biggest tool I have ever seenville, UTL

Here’s a hint.  Get some sun, air even, read a book, watch TV, give the wife, girlfriend, friend, significant other, or lifetime partner a little tickle instead of playing AH for a while.  I mean my god man; with the stats as of Sunday April 21 at 1115 CDT you have had 106 kills stolen from you in 35 and half hours of play.

Can you get any bigger of a persecution complex?

Your "solution" is nothing better than sinking to their level.  Be the better man and take the high road.  You need to decide if you really want to detract from the community instead of improving it.

Not only that but you're perptuating the myth (IMO) of fake check 6s.  HT worked hard to program this feature in and you are abusing it.

It sounds like you need to take a nice long break from AH if you're taking this game so seriously.  Have fun or don't play.

Ok, so now you’re dense as well as a tool.

My point was…  106 kills stolen in 35 hours of play.  106!  That’s an average of 3 kills taken from you in an hour every hour.

And, if it is bothering you this much in that amount of time you are in the air, I’ll say again.  Take a brake.

So you agree with the persecution complex then.  Whew, good thing we agree on something.

much like killshooter effects mostly spray n pray 50 cal planes (you can tell because almost every killshooter sux threads are from 50 cal guys) they also steal kills almost exclusively. Not only do they continously fire over your shoulder they will chase a plane that is clearly dead all the way to the ground.

If they can ring a bell to get a response from a hungry dog I see no reason why 100 check sixes cant condition a reponse from the 50 cal spray and pray kill stealers.

Some off us only fly ah to get kills. We are not part of "your team" or care anything about strat etc.... We engage and either get killed or kill then move on to the next one. I dont think its too much to ask of anyone to simply not kill steal.

This goes back to that other guys thread about "teamwork" most of you care nothing about doing whats necessary to bring about a sense of teamwork. Check 6s are rare, clearing 6s are even rarer, most dont even now how to properly drag a con that doesnt result in the guy clearing your 6 to bleed all his e. And killstealing happens more and more.

These same types then get on channel 2 and scream about "team work". Well to these types the only thing that keeps me from not shooting them down is killlshooter. If I see a 50 cal plane spraying like made over my shoulder I have and will again forget the nme con at my 12 and fly into their bullet stream.

If you dont want 100 check 6s then then dont kill steal from joe :)

Well Wotan, if you shot out his tail, you killed him didnt you?

Or do you absolutely need the reassuring 'pat in the back' yellow message to announce it for all to witness your prowess?

Go vulch some fields with Joe and be happy.
