Yep, sure is......I have a life...and evidently you don't. Sucks to be you. Keep trying hard and you might win the big Aces Highs Jackpot they give to the highest ranked person each tour!!

Here's a post you'll never see, subtract 1:

"Congratulations to the top 100 ranked AH players.   Too bad we didn't have you Aces around in WWII :D Some players will say you don't have a life, you cheat, you manipulate and you fight in all four major food groups (and of course they don't have time because they have meetings with large public figures in expensive places), but rest assured that the fox DID want the grapes ;)  Hats off "

I fail to see how "I AM RANKED HIGHER THAN YOU SO I'M BETTER" is any better or worse than "MOMMY, THE KIDS AT SCHOOL SAID THEY WERE RANKED HIGHER THAN ME!"

Throwing your "rank" around like it means something is silly.  So is coming to be board looking for confirmation when soeone does it to you.

Don't know about you all but I worked rather hard at getting a good rank this tour.  I spent more time then I normally do and well it was fun as hell.  Some of these guys are in teh top 5 every tour and to displace them is an honor.    I agree with Deja though.  Tisk Tisk

not sure but it seems like some people misinterpreted raubvogel's post. what i think he was trying to say was that rank doesn't matter that much coz as many of us who have taken the time to look at other players ranks have seen, some players fly only fighters others fly only bombers. others fly mainly fighters etc etc. that's why rank doesn't mean much. if anything matters it's not the rank but the kills to death and to a lesser extent the kills per sortie ratio for fighters but that's just my opinion.

p.s. some highly skilled fighter pilots look for the most challenging fights either against single opponents at a time or multiple opponents all at once so their rank may not show it but if u meet them 1 to 1 u might be in for a big surprise.

Raub's post was in reference to someone who tried to prove they were the better pilot by refering Raub to thier higher rank.

If someone needs to use a rank to display their skill (let alone VERBALIZE how good they are) then they are obviously insecure and lacking in other areas.  That is sad.
