Yup, refugees many of you are, involuntarily displaced. The point is, this is not the old country, so don't expect AH to be like AW or to become like AW; and behavior that was acceptable over in AW isn't here, and vice versa. That doesn't mean that you can't be proud of yer AW heritage, or integrate elements from it into your play here.
And don't give us the historical origins crap. AW lost its way long before AH was born. Those seeking innovation, realism or gameplay left years ago; the latest wave includes many who clung to an idea and a community for 13 years. It sucks, but that idea and that community are dead. The people survive.

yada yada yada (turns off lecturing idiot)

I Can't hear you.......

I'm sorry Otter, I forgot to translate my messages in terms comprehensible to the target audience. Permit me:

To all former Air Warriors:
Sorry about your noodle.

Log in .squelch 6 , .squelch 1, say g'day to Kniggits then .squelch 2 .

Works great...the only other people in the game that I can 'hear' are my squadmates, the rest of 'em are just drones......the most unpredictable, sometimes uber, sometimes dweebish drones there are to be found anywhere.

Then again there are times when I get a real laugh out of the radio bar, and have even learnt a thing or two in the past from comments/facts people have put into text.

If you cant bare to hear it, squelch the lot of 'em, but if you are in a more tollerant frame of mind, and are prepared to sift through the crap to find the gems, listen in.

HTC have given us a wonderful option, that being the .squelch # command.

Freedom of speech, freedom of choice....here, we have both.

The notion "let the players fly any plane they want" I find the most limiting of all. It means that in the MA only a handful of mission profiles are going to be effective.
I like to fly the 202, for example, but the plane doesn't have a chance against late-war cannonbirds.

Keep your bad ideas from Warbirds out of AH.

The Big Pac had got into full swing, and the game was never the same after they got rid of the central, neutral cities concept.

Trust me, there were a LOT of Air Warrior players who thought that the game was lacking for this change. I never liked AW as much once they made all the fields capturable.

Geeeesshhhhhh

What a wall of text...

My Eyeballs Hurt...

This has been one of the most interesting threads I have had the pleasure of reading on these great UBB boards...
I mean this has made me slow down and smell the roses today... If all this eloquence would have been posted NNTP, I would have blasted thru this thread like an Otter thru calm water. Or an Animal on a rampage when out of his cage... But no... I spent about a half hour s l o w l y browsing and enjoying my reading... I even read about guys taking dumps and talking to their turds... Pretty soon other fellows were talking about his turd... Then others started to psychoanalyze his turd...
I read about how much better FR was than RR, along with how FR was inferior to RR.
Seek and ye shall find... thats my motto.
Didn't Arlo Guthrie write some lyrics to that affect ? Or was that just some bard ?

Earlier in another thread I read about how angry some people were about a squad coming in from AW that had a similar squad name... How uncoothe it was to use the same name they had used for years in AW... How dare they? Just a case of no class rude behavior.
After all, they had moved onto someone elses property. I mean since the existing squad had been in existence in AH first.. No one should have the right to use a squad name that was remotely similar to thiers...
People that are the first ones across a bridge do develope loyalty to the land they bravely claim to be their own and...
Oh wait this is a game isn't it ?
This made as much sense to me as the kind of logic that decided how elementary history classes should teach about how zealots had to come into what is now the United States and murder and starve all of the savage people that lived here so they could civilize it.
Is that whats called an Oxymaroons ???

Now this is a great database of knowlege at our fingertips... Lets not get carried away with petty anal tendencies that cause us to come to odds with each other.

The beginning of this thread reminds me of that old Beatles song...
Hazed and Confused

Yeah... everything about AH is just the best. I mean there couldn't have been any part of the AW community, that even held a candle next to the deeply entrenched community <cough> that was here when I arrived from another flight sim about 6 months ago.

I do hope we can all get along and grow together.
