Very strange encounter.......BEWARE
« on: July 22, 2003, 02:16:40 AM »
I am going to put this guys handle out for everyone to see. I feel I should inform the community about this guy.

I was attempting to capture a145 and after taking out the vh I began my vulching pattern. Well i got about 5 and along comes Mavrik01 over vox telling me I have no honor because I kept vulching him. I basically tell him he should up from another field. He goes on and on then ask me if I was afraid to fight. So I asked if he wanted to go to DA and find out. He accepts so off to DA we go.

After setting the rules we up. The first strange thing I noticed is he heads east instaed of north to meet me. He's talking a little trash. Ok no prob. We merge I loop he dies. He congrats me. I ask if he wanted to go again to give him a sporting chance. He accepts. Again he heads east...hmm interesting.

He begins to make small talk.. Asked where I was from I say cali...
he says "I can tell by your IP address"...HUH????? I wonder how he sees that. Well I ask wheres he going he told me to fly my game and he'll fly his. Ok back to talking trash no prob. We merge go around a few times I shoot him down. Congrats me again. I tell him its been fun but Im going back to MA to vulch. He then tell me that I was on just long enough and that I should check my hard drive.....OKAY!!!!! Now thats strange.....

Those VMF222 guys need to have this dude checked out...

Should I be worried?????

No, I think I shot him down a couple of times in the CT. I know little about the interweb junk, but I don't think you should be worried, sounds like a 12 year old to me.

No need to be worried...

I've met him last night in the MA he helped me end a P51 wich was pretty undamaged ...

The P51 was still having it's left wing , leaking fuel and oil.
I guess he was smoking to hide itself and to egress safely  :p

I was pissed ...
But a lot less than the minute after when I experimented for the 2nd time the 1st wire rollback :D

He was just a lame head trying to scare you, and he managed a little. Well who wouldnt be, thats why I never go to DA after pissing somone off.
They talk all kinda bull****e and lies.
Well you could always check your HD with a antivirus program just in case.

You land a bit too hard (I'm a violent dweeb ya know ;)) and just after catching the 1st wire you are slammed back to the sea :)

The last think you see is the stern of the CV going away :p

Thank God this happens to others..er I mean now I know what the problem is. Never had a problem landing on CVs until recently. Couldn't figure out why I was being thrown off the back. So the idea is to land gently as possible, near the end (rear) of the boat as possible or first couple of trip wires as far back as possible?

Asked about this several months back in the "Help and Training" forum and nobody knew what the problem is. Feel much better now. Thanks straffo! ;)

not exactly, there is allways a possibility that or other way... but not for a kid playing AH from home :)
[don't get me wrong.. playing AH is safe :) way more then playing Quake, Il-2, UT or most of on-line games]
i seriously doubt that guy could do anything to you. IF the guy knew your real IP address he could get your theoratical location - no biggie.

Here is one good thing you should do no matter what - use a firewall. there are a lot of good personal firewalls that you can download and that are a FREEWARE (check a http://www.webattack.com for example). then you coudl add a AV software (to be sure you are not accepting trojan horses) and update your PC with windows update thiong - then you have your 99% that you are safe :)

I guess that's why IRL they go for the 3rd wire ,there are  perhaps other reasons I don't know ...

There's no worry.  Just sounds like someone that got a little bitter about being vulched and tried to put a little fear into you.
