NO!!!!

think about what the new customers of AH are missing. Don't forget that we are in "AirWarrior" syndrome.

That was happening way before the contest started.

I love comments like this.  If one of my teammates is in a 1v3.. or whatever, and diving down to help means I'll just die too, I will not help him unless he specifically asks for a hand. There have been times where I was just plain "caught" and told teammates to "Get outta here, I'm dead anyway." so I expect the same.  Somehow, people that say,"I don't care if I die, I'll jump in anyway." think they are better people.  Really, I don't understand that. What makes them a better person becaue they entered the fray and got killed too?

OTOH I have the very good fortune of flying w/ a squad that is absolutely fantastic for taking care of each other.  As a bonus, I've found myself flying in the area of some terrrifc non-squad pilots.  Guys like Manetmp, gurge, Gryffin, skpg, nuts, and others really make it easy to survive.  Nothing against nits or bish, but the rooks really have some excellent pilots. Just last night me, manetmp, gurge, and some other rooks manhandled a  very numerically superior, and higher group of bad guys.  Manetmp and Gurge, man those two can really get things done.

You have a new guy in this game that finally got up the gumption to make his FIRST post on this board and you promptly try to make him feel like dog sh*t.

There's many ways to accomplish that, you just happened to use the score thing.

He just might never post again, which is a bad thing.

Because my ratio of posts on this board is increased by that amount..

And I tend to drone on..


I dont care if he does post again. I dont care if he does fly the la7 or not. I dont care what your score ore his is.
He has an opinion that he voiced on the la7.  I looked into what it was based on and responded to his post.
All the rest of this is you being an idiot.

Well jeez Pongo it appears it's not me that has a sore spot. Being that you don't care what he flys, what he thinks, and it wasn't a troll for the rest of us to check your score etc. etc...

Why did you post ?? What was the point ?

Seems like a completely wasted 20 seconds from this end..

I'm quite comfortable with the level of my intellegence, though I know deep down in my heart I'll never become President of the United States.

But that is my cross to bear.

I'm also comfortable with the fact that your people skills pretty much blows chunks..

I won't lose sleep over either revelation.

Oh it was not my intention to make him feel bad, and I doubt it was Pongos (although I can't speak for Pongo).  Like it or not, people are judgemental, when we hear someone make a claim about something we seek to find out their credentials.  

For instance if Leviathn or Fester were to speak up on the matter of a certain aircraft's performance, they would be taken seriously.  Why?  Well, because they have a reputation as being very skilled pilots, and generally very skilled pilots know what they are talking about.  However, when someone that I have never heard of speaks his mind on the matter, I feel it is quite natural to check his credentials on the matter.  It isn't a matter of trying to insult anyone, at least not for me.

Urchin I know what your saying. My point is this. There is no reason to jump on a noobie on his first post. Unless of course it's this "Lotech" kid that's trollin the boards.

He had a view based on his experience, and that's all it was. Does he have the experience for everyone to take "notice" of his views ?? Of course not.

I checked his score as soon as read his post, checked back a few months and he's been here a short time.

My reply took his time here into account.

If Beet1e goes off on one of his patented Lag whines,  my replies are quite different.

We all have been around the block, do we have something to prove to a new guy having a first look here ?? I would hope not. But that's obviously not true in all cases.

Once in a great while, it ticks me off enough to say something..

Which pretty much cuts me out of Pongo's will..

I prolly wouldn't have liked what he left me anyway..

you sure about that?  you might have been able to finally change your handle to "haspoop."

:D

fwiw, la7 isn't worth perking; the only impact it has on gameplay is bringing out the whiners w/o a clue on the BBS.
