I hate to burst your bubbles, but... it was I who invented the term PoopyHead©.  I coined the phrase while taunting Brian Duffy during a heated dodge ball match in the third grade.  Feel free to contact me directly if you'd like to work out usage rights for my word.

I guess so.  But I am also having alot, and I do mean ALOT, more fun.

I don't give a crap about the a5's deck speed anymore, I don't give a crap about d9's diving capability anymore.  I just fly em.  It's fun.



It's kinda like SOB.  He is an evil incarnate.  But as soon as I stopped caring whether he lived or died, I found I enjoyed the squad forum much much more.



Bitterness in game is sorta silly.

Did caring about A5 speed or D9 diving make you uptight, or was it the attacks if you asked about them?

You have arrived. You have made it. You are one with the cosmic AH all.

Seems hard to understand and even believe your former existence now, doesn't it?

and welcome to the promised land.

Let me pose a question. I'm guessing that when IL2 FB comes out that there will be a lot of crying about P51 and P47 not being done done right, will that then be the birth of the allied whiner? And why wont you guys just shut up and fly them then? :)

Well, Grun, I guess we'll have to wait and see. Well, you will. As I'm not in the habit of frequenting the boards of games I don't play.

There may well be some "allied whining". There's been some here. But I will wager this: It will never equal the volume or vitriol of the LW stalwarts.

There seems, to me at least, to be a distinct difference between the two groups of complainers. One group always seems to embrace and espouse the X-Files type conspiracy aspect.  :D

I have never hear of any conspiracy talk from LW types- in fact the only people who mention it are those making fun og LW guys, why?

And I think there will be much crying and squeaking and quiting for any mistake however minor in the P51 or P47 in the FB game - that will be fun but then I'm sure none of you will notice....

what can you do or say... nothing


There ya go. Just one quick example in this very thread.

As far as IL2, so far it hasn't much to offer the dedicated Allied flyer, so I doubt there's many that will quit in disgust over any problems there. Of course, maybe they can quit and come back 16 times. It's been done, hasn't it? But not by allied yet.  :D

But you're right; I'll be here as long as I'm having fun. With the advent of IL2/FB, I expect this place will be even more fun. In a funny sort of way, I can't wait for IL2/FB.

WTG Furious!!! Welcome to the cutting edge of the center of the universe:)

What a wild concept eh? Just relax and have some fun.

Ya know...what most don't get is that relaxing and having fun does not mean you don't take what your doing seriously. No one wants a kill worse than I do....the difference being, is I place the blame where it's due...square on my own shoulders and not the FM of the ride I'm drivin.

Keep Smilin!:)
