Greatest Myths of AH...
« on: August 13, 2002, 01:40:47 PM »
Here are some of the greatest myths that I have read on this board and seen/heard in the MA

-The guns on the F6F are/were "different" than the ones on other .50cal armed planes

-The N1K2 is an absurd plane that is unbeatable (if it is unbeatable, how come they get shot down?)

-Guns on the top of a B-17 actually shoot planes below it (this has been explained so many times it isn't even funny)

-Country A, B, or C is the best country (if people switch sides, what makes A, B, or C the best?)

-Typhoons shoot backwards (one of the funniest and best threads I have ever read)

-Stall limiter and Combat trim make the game too easy and are an unfair advantage to those that use them

-You can quit this game anytime you want (well you can actually quit the game, but not truly cancel your account - though there are exceptions like real world problems intervening)

-RAM has quit the game (he really just wanted a new handle)

-Drex is good

-Furballers are mindless

-Buffers are out to get furballers

Feel free to add your own or comment

"You'll find more sportmanship and better overall conduct in the Combat Theatre"

Limited experience here, but let's just say my first experience was not a positive one.

- Stats have any meaning.

- cluttersheep add to the game.

- ponys only run.

- 3+ on 1 is fun for everyone involved.
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are.
