Talking of personal experience here, you'd better run and search for cover, man.

the storm you just have called on you is bigger than you may ever imagine

Agreed RAM. However , you cant deny that there are some pilots out there that have an amazing ability to warp on demand... especially when you are on their 6. They usually fly N1ks and Spits, which enables them to warp on demand and use those planes amazing twists to get in your tail or out of the way in the 1/2 a second that warp takes to have effect on your end.

I can understand net lag and other evils, but when the old saying

"If it happens once its an accident, twice its a coincidence, thrice is a conspiracy".

applies to pilots that DO warp more than twice during the same dogfight and those warps happen at sssssooo conveninient times for them...well, you know how ugly it is.

Tac, I am completely sure that he is right. But I know what will happen when **some guys** read this message.

I was shot down by a backwards firing typhoon just one week before leaving AH. I posted it here and I was called everything, but "handsome" by the peolpe here.

Curious that some days after that, there were similar reports...curious that the other day talking on the MA with a friend, he told me of a similar happening. Curious isnt it?

I know that people cheats in this game. I'm sure of it. I only say that Razor has digged his own tomb in this so-called community writing what he has wrote.

Forget the posts, just send the film to HTC and let them deal with it.

As for how to send the film, if you use outlook express or most other email clients, it's easy.  Get Pyro's email address, and start an email to him.  In the message of the body, briefly explain what you want him to look at.  Then find the "attach file" option in the email program's menus or buttons.  Click that, and then browse to the folder where the film file is.  Select the file and hit ok.  It should attach the file to the email.  Hit send, and off it goes.  If you want to get fancy, use pkzip or winzip to compress the file first, but it's not really necessary unless your film file is huge.

A post to the forums isn't really necessary IMHO, and it really does get people all pissed off for little reason.  Unless of course you LIKE sparking pointless flamewars, then go ahead and call people cheaters in here.

"I lit your N1K up at 800 and stayed on you til you past and pulled up."

Curious, would that be 800 feet, 800 yards, or 800 meters?

If 800 feet cool! Excellent flying!

But the other two? Lighting up somebody at that range shouldn`t do much damage, if any. Quite far actually. Was very uncommon in WWII, I wouldn`t want to think it was a common thing in AH.

Like the Vets always said, don`t shoot untill he fills your windscreen. Try getting in tight at a range of under 300 yards before you open fire. More of a chance to do damage at that range, and much more realistic.

Posting the guys handle here is just in bad taste IMO, particularly with the possibility of net lag and the like.  That being said, you did the smart thing...filmed it, and are gonna email it to HTC.  If there's a problem that they can identify, they'll fix it.  If they have conclusive proof that he was cheating, he'll be done flying, simple as that.  

And RAM...don't lump Razor into the same spot you've made for yourself...the responce that you get to a post like this has everything to do with the picture you've painted of yourself with other posts, and less to do with the post itself.  I've been pretty impressed at not seeing a daily RAM rant...just give up this little grudge you have, and maybe people will stop thinking the worst when they start reading a post or a responce from you.

Lol skybax.  This isn't Warbirds you know    In AH, if you wait until he fills your windscreen you are probably already dead.

Buffs can easily hit out to 800yds, and kill at that range.  If a buff is being attacked by a Nik, and waits until the guy is close before firing, well, he'll never get a chance to fire at all.

not to be rude or anything but I have my convergance set at 650. And if its a fighter Ide still be lucky if i hit it past 500. unless its a buff I wount even try for it past 650. I can normally hit some very wicket angled snap shots on people so its not my aim. there not warping or using any evil anti damage cheats. its just a simple fact that ingame as you go out your bullet spreed gets bigger. try it in a n1k2 you might if your lucky get one little ping at 700 as you blast a few hundred rounds. those type 99 cannons have poor grouping. If your shooting at some one at 800 your getting desprate becuase you have little chance of landing a killing blow. bringing up names and accusations like that on this forum is really bad form.
