GPreddy, I am extremely disappointed to hear you say that.  :(  As a former Air Warrior myself, I strongly object to us being called degenerates.... every game has its "bad apples", and I'm sure AW had no more than any other.  I have lots of friends here, including many former AWrs, and resent us being grouped together in this way.

AW died well over a year ago now, and I was one who stayed right to the bitter end.  It broke my heart when the game I had been playing for the previous 3.5 years, and had grown to love, was taken from me.... and I know I was not alone.  

However, I had already been playing AH for eight months before this happened, so the transition between games was not so difficult for me and, like many others, I soon made Aces High my new home.  This kind of sweeping statement against Air Warriors really hurts.  :(

Bah, Helen, don't give him the satisfaction. We all know who the degenerate here is (the twerp that posted this thread) and why he has a grudge against AW.

Ignore his BS, and let him stew in his own juice.

Flossy,
Remember, this is coming from Voss.
Most folks know better than to make such childish assumptions about any group of people.  You have great respect from this community (even though you're British :) ).

Despite being told in no uncertain terms by my Warbirds friends that all the ex AW types in Aces High eat their children, I have found them to be a good bunch :)

I agree on the ch .1 stuff though, it can get bad, which is why I squelch it.

Also, its not just the language, its the anger, and the general unfriendliness that permeates it that makes me squelch 1, in the MA and the CT both. Some folks apparently play AH to fly some and talk trash a lot, they need an angry peoples chat room or something. I guess I can dream. In the meantime .squelch 1

The tone of nastiness was set here right from the beginning and has gotten steadily worse from then on. Do a search for a thread tiltled "Where's the hate" which was posted here before gameplay even began...you'll see what I mean.

AW'ers, pls stop killing GPreddy. It seems you are interfering with his vulching skills. Even worse, you might be affecting his score!  :D

Every community has it's bad apples AW/AH/WB/FA or WW2OL and it's almost a full time job itself to track these players and take the appropriate steps and Hitech Creations has done just a good job at this as any other company behind the online sims I've played. I have not encountered much language at all in my time online in Aces High.

Flossy don't be upset by the moronic ramblings of GPreddy/Voss he's hardly led a life of virtue true himself and I for one am glad that someone of such good character like yourself is part of this community you have done so much yet ask for nothing in return but gained the respect of so many

There are too many politicians and agitators in this game.
Get rid of Ch1 or put a 3-5min time-limit so ppl can't spam that ch.

Yeah AW FR was the community to beat.
AH has much more trashtalk that AW FR ever did. But the influx of
the RR community did bring a buncha macro peeling, raving,
teenage blabbermouths to AH. of course no all the RR community
had big mouths, just half of them and that was enuff...

P.S. if your tired of VOSS killing you just learn a lil SA.

I think to steer this thread toward a constructive end, instead of focusing on the obvious; how mean everyone is to gpreddy, we should brainstorm reasons to be nice....

The main problem with this thread seems to be the influx of ex TAS players.

Had anymore letters? You will.

Its disgusting.


I don't believe the death of AW has any bearing on the matter at ALL, and to imply that "any" influx of degenerates was due to AW closing is your own twisted imagination.  The player base at AW was/is no different from what it is here, or in WBs.

 You will get players who always push the the envelope of accepted behaviour in any mulitplayer game, and it is up to the game supervisors to advise, and educate players (especially new players) on the "norms" acceptable in "their" game, and if necessary ban those who continually breach the rules. How they apply those rules is entirely up to the Game owners.  

There were considerable differences of what was considered the "norm" even between different arenas on AW, and probably that applies to AH too.

I have had a "little" experience on those issues.  Personally I find AH in general less supervised than AW, whether that is good or bad I'm still mulling that over, but as I rarely pay attention to Chan 1 it don't bother me unduly, though the whining seems a much higher volume than I remember in AW. :)
