It looks like HiTech did take care of it.  I haven't seen the little guy since that night he blew up on Channel 1.  Thanks for sending the film in Mw007

Please don't misunderstand the comment I'm about to make. I do commend your concern about the issue involved, and compliment you for taking the time to send the e-mail with film.

I am a tad concerned, though, to see you come back here and post a quote from the e-mail reply you received. I would hate to think that perhaps they might be reluctant to reply e-mails of this nature in future because they don't want to see those replies posted in public.

Just saying (and don't forget, I do commend you for helping in the first place!)

That kid didn't mean anything by it - to him was just some german thing he had seen somewhere.  He wasn't saying bad things on the "radio", as far as i saw he was behaving himself otherwise.  

That whole deal was handled very badly and needlessly ran a player off from the game.  If it had been handled properly (descretely) everyone could have been made happy.

I can't comment on the specific incident you cited here, but I will say I agree wholeheartedly that a little tolerance and discretion could often prevent things turning ugly needlessly. Its very easy to do or say something that offends someone else without meaning any offense. Rather than assume someone meant to offend, why not give a little benefit of the doubt?

IMO the tendency many players have to want to SQUAWK! loudly and indignantly about anything that irks them is an aggravating factor to a situation that could be resolved easily and with no hassle.

IMO, either a quiet, polite & private chat with someone who's done or said something that upsets you, or a quiet e-mail to HTC, are both preferable actions to running here and complaining.

Just saying, FWIW ;)

Hey Culero....hows the Rio Grande Valley doing?  :D

I think I told you once before in a post somewhere that I was originally from Harlingen.  Anyway, I will be in the area for Christmas visiting the folks.  If you want to get together for a beer or maybe join my friends and I for golf, let me know.  Email in my profile should be valid.

Folks.... I have to agree that what DeathPig did was horrendous!

I have a story about a little kid named Dlamba....you guys remember him?  The 10 year old with the mouth of SATAN and actions to boot.

I made the mistake of allowing him to join the TIGER Squadron and all he wanted to do was attack our website and tear up vox.

He went so far as to keep hitting Join messages while I was dogfighting, swearing on private channel, etc.  I called HTC.  They politely said email the film.

Caught it on tape..mailed it in...30 min later...NO PROBLEMS with that kid anylonger.

Keep sending gross abuses to HTC...but dont innundate them with minor stuff.....we should police the arena and make it better for others.
