Title: Reasonable proposals for a better AH
Post by: Lusche on June 21, 2013, 09:30:15 AM
- Get rid of the vehicles. It's a FLIGHT SIM for god's sake!
- Fix the cannons!
- Fix the bombers. Remove the drones .. ONE MAN ONE PLANE.  And force them to fly at historical speeds. Take away the EZ mode bombsight. They shouldn't be able to hit anything smaller than a city from 30K feet JUST LIKE IN REAL WAR
- Fix the .50 cal guns!
- Delete the ability to switch countries or to "chat" with the enemy. That's just wrong.  Did you ever hear about brave American pilots to fly for the US today and the Nazis tomorrow? That's treason in real life, son, and so it should be here
- Where there "rooks" or "knights" in WWII? No, it was Allies vs Axis. The current "countries" are a travesty, make it like the REAL THING - Axis vs Allies, and with a rolling plane set.
- Get the dam collisions right. BOTH have to take damage, just like in real life. Don't tell me about "lag", that's just an excuse for crappy programming
- Tanks are no AA vehicles. Tank rounds should not damage planes at all!
- Fuel burn should always be 1.0
- Get the price up, to at least 50$. Preferably more.  HTC will make more money while the riff raff will be driven away. Those skilless foulmouthed welfare people are very detriment to the game, a higher percentage of successful upper class people will bring back class to the game as well.
- WWII planes had no neaon signs hover above them! NO icons and NO inflight dar! If you wanna have dar, have someone sitting in tower and give you updates.
- Fix the Spixteen and the magic Brewster! They are a parody of the real planes, they should not be able to accelerate to 400mph while going straight up!
- PERK everything but a few ENY 40 planes. Wanna fly something better than a P-40C? EARN IT!
- Killshooter is retarded. There was friendly fire in WW2, so it should be here. This one should definitely improve combat!
- B-25's did take off from CV's and B-29's did carry atomic bombs! So they should do both in this WW2 SIMULAtION as well!
- BAN squeakers. This is an ADULT game. No one under 21 has any business being here.
- Stop the silly filtering and moderation. it's a COMBAT game, and men in combat ain't polite all the time. If you can't bear it, go play some FB farm games, you %!!&§&%" ! Toughen up!

Wish list?

GVs are fun and good practice for pilots to straif and precision bomb moving targets, aeroplanes had bombs for this purpose so use them, this is a flight sim for our and HTC's sake, kids like to play games too, this is not real combat and just a form of spatial reasoning skills contest, and shouldn't you post these on the wish list? :headscratch:

 He got it right about tanks hitting planes with the main gun. Never in the history of the world did a tank hit a flying plane except by accident and the crew never knew it or never reported it. I do not except any claims of this by the Red army.

$50 a month? LOL. The reason us successful few have the money we do is because we know how to manage it, barter, and save. I won't spend a penny more if the price per month goes up. If I see an increase of 1 single penny, I am out of here.

- While I am not 21 years old yet, I think that age is a bit absurd. It isn't like we are going to play the game and go drive and not be safe driving. The legal age for drinking in America is 21, with standards so high it just makes teens want to drink that much more. Whilst the age is younger in other countries it isn't here. So taking a video game away from the kids who actually stay away from drinking with this game would just be dumb. How would you monitor this anyways?

[ Scenario ] :
 SYSTEM: Ohhh my , he isn't 21 !!! Everyone report him. ( MASS REPORTfrom AHII Players )
 Pyro : Fixed he is now banned
 SYSTEM : Ohhh Another One !! Report Him  { 10 - 20 minutes later }
 Pyro : Fixed he is now banned
 
I am sure Pyro or Skuzzy would get tired of banning those who aren't 21. It would DEFINITELY just make squeekers, if anything, not talk on range vox but on a vox with friends they could trust. There are a lot of squeekers that don't talk on range for that reason, because of the insane amount of rude people who chew them out for giving a simple 6 call to help a comrade. I know when I was 13 and flying the game there was a vox JUST for squeekers and there were maybe 9-10 of us on a vox at once. Hell, we felt at home with each other because we didn't have to worry about getting yelled at by some old fart who doesn't have a wife so he plays the game all day and gets angry when a kid is on and not in school because it is "squeeker" season.

Get over yourself, let kids play. Just because everyone doesn't wish to be miserable whilst you are doesn't mean you have to take it out on the kids of game.

(I am 18 just in case you were wondering)


- Limiting one to a specific force, Allied or Axis wouldn't exactly be a smart decision either. I don't know the ratio of Axis to Allied pilots but I am guessing that the Allied out weigh the Axis because the Allied have the easiest planes to fly for ex. Spitfire , P51 , Hurri2 , etc. etc. While Axis is a harder plane set to use and Axis would have the only jet. Just wouldn't seem exactly fair.

- Why stop people from switching countries? What if someone has friends or family on a different country and they wish to fly with them for the day or even the evening. The 12 hour thing suck but if you really want to fly with a friend or family member then feel free to switch but you are forced to stay with that country all day.

- $50 is outrageous, this isn't an xbox game. Not even close. The graphics of the game don't even deserve $50. I run War Thunder full graphics for FREE up to Tier 8 and the graphics in that game are just plain godly compared to Aces High. The flight model of Aces High II may be worth a little more than $15 a month but the graphics are holding the game back.



Those are the only really major things I had a problem with in the post, I am not the GOD of AH but just feel like you should maybe reset your standards.

Lusche has some points.

The mass report game still exists.  People twist what you text or say so they can mass report others on a friday/weekend and people can't get it reversed from Skuzzy as an invalid report until you call him on Monday. 

THAT needs to be eliminated.  For Pete's Sake get some more volunteers who have a skin thicker that .005 mylar to be the moderators instead of letting the psychos run the asylum. 

The general public doesn't know their backside from a hole in the ground...so why put the Regular Joe on the street (simply put: the regular players) in the reporting driver seat?   :rolleyes:

Stop letting people use the mass report as a weapon.

No pilot in the real war was stupid enough to fly right down the barrel of a gun that can only elevate 23 degrees.

If you get hit by the main gun, you are doing it all wrong.

- PERK everything but a few ENY 40 planes. Wanna fly something better than a P-40C? EARN IT!
- Killshooter is retarded. There was friendly fire in WW2, so it should be here. This one should definitely improve combat!
- B-25's did take off from CV's and B-29's did carry atomic bombs! So they should do both in this WW2 SIMULAtION as well!
- BAN squeakers. This is an ADULT game. No one under 21 has any business being here.

I work while injured and barely make the money I do. I don't get food stamps or any other kind of welfare, but I highly enjoy this game. I dedicate my time working on our squad site including "granted it's incomplete" a up-to-date resource index and donate my time to the AvA in hopes of building it up.

Granted I am pretty much the bottom of the social ladder, and can even be called scum... But am I really riff raff? I don't deserve to play the game?

This is a good start, but I would like to add some important things that have so far been left out.

We should get rid of the planes altogether.  Flying airplanes is only a lead up to arguing (based on unresearched notions of aerodynamics, engineering, and history) about what planes can and cannot do.  We need to cut out the irrelevant preparatory material and skip right to the meat.

The age limit should be at least 50.  We shouldn't have any of those "wet behind the ears" 40 year olds wandering around, tripping over their sagging, befouled diapers.

Change the game to run on 1990's-vintage computers so that we don't have to hear any more complaints about not getting 60 fps on a Pentium II machine with built-in graphics.

Start running HTC based on suggestions from whatever portion of the player base has no experience in business, marketing, software development, and game design -- as that is bound to be where there are ideas not yet spoiled by the constraints of the real world.

Probably not, but there isn't a single actual good idea in the lot.  All of these things have been asked for over the years, often multiple times by different people, yet they are all ill informed and would be bad for the game.

Which was Lusche's point of course.  He just compiled a disparate group of bad ideas into a single list of horribleness.

^^^ This. ^^^

There isn't a single original thought in my original post. I just remembered some of the worst ideas that popped up repeatedly over the years and put it in a single post.
I expected the occasional laugh and then other players to add other "fixes" for AH they have heard of. I'm rather perplexed by the fact that anybody who has followed the BBS and my post history in particular could take it seriously  :huh


Bored? A tad attention-starved?  :D

16,644 posts in ~8 years... obviously I suffer from chronic boredom and attention starvation  :P

- don't let Germans try and have a sense of humour.  

A man can't just do charts all the time ... cut me some slack!  :old:

I am not the GOD of AH but just feel like you should maybe reset your standards.

You wouldn't believe how low my standards are.
Losers can't be chosers...  :uhoh

The one thing that would overwhelming change my AH experience is if the chat channels were not full of ego/trash talking/negativity.  It's a small game, and in small games the community makes a huge impact on the impressions that new and returning players get.  Right now, most nights, that is a pretty poor impression.

- Get rid of the vehicles. It's a FLIGHT SIM for god's sake!
- Fix the cannons!
- Fix the bombers. Remove the drones .. ONE MAN ONE PLANE.  And force them to fly at historical speeds. Take away the EZ mode bombsight. They shouldn't be able to hit anything smaller than a city from 30K feet JUST LIKE IN REAL WAR
- Fix the .50 cal guns!
- Delete the ability to switch countries or to "chat" with the enemy. That's just wrong.  Did you ever hear about brave American pilots to fly for the US today and the Nazis tomorrow? That's treason in real life, son, and so it should be here
- Where there "rooks" or "knights" in WWII? No, it was Allies vs Axis. The current "countries" are a travesty, make it like the REAL THING - Axis vs Allies, and with a rolling plane set.
- Get the dam collisions right. BOTH have to take damage, just like in real life. Don't tell me about "lag", that's just an excuse for crappy programming
- Tanks are no AA vehicles. Tank rounds should not damage planes at all!
- Fuel burn should always be 1.0
- Get the price up, to at least 50$. Preferably more.  HTC will make more money while the riff raff will be driven away. Those skilless foulmouthed welfare people are very detriment to the game, a higher percentage of successful upper class people will bring back class to the game as well.
- WWII planes had no neaon signs hover above them! NO icons and NO inflight dar! If you wanna have dar, have someone sitting in tower and give you updates.
- Fix the Spixteen and the magic Brewster! They are a parody of the real planes, they should not be able to accelerate to 400mph while going straight up!

You of course forgot to address Hoing, obviously never done in historically. 
- Bullet proof tanks.  It is unbelievable that a M475 can shoot a tiger2 like 50 times! and does not destroy it.  Absolute nonsense! I saw a picture of a tiger2 knocked out on the internet.
- All German planes are under modeled. It's true! Someone told me on ch200 that HTC hates german planes and under modeled all of them. Again totally true, I got shot down while flying a FW190A8, never would have happened if the plane performed like it should.
- The sun is too bright!  That needs an immediate fix.  When I look into the sun it is really bright and makes it hard to see stuff.  Totally over modeled.
- Which is why we need night time! No Mr. Sun to get in the way!  Totally historical too. There WAS nighttime back in WWII.  Sure everyone would get frustrated and log off, but again this isn't a game it is a simulation! Fun has nothing to do with it.
- Fires should never destroy an aircraft.  I saw it in the movie "Memphis Belle" which is totally a documentary and nota Warner Bro's hollywood film.  They dove a B17 to put out a fire.  It worked there and it should work here. Every. Single. Time.
- Rearming an airplane should also repair the plane.  Here is irrefutable proof of that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_tape
- Aircraft should experience in flight mechanical problems. Totally historical.  I want to know that when I up a perked plane (especially a 262 with those all so crazy turbojets)  That at ANY time something could go wrong. That added realism will really make me more worried about flying into enemy territory, Which again is 100% accurate to history.

- BAN squeakers. This is an ADULT game. No one under 21 has any business being here.
i became a war vet at the young age of 18.  Old enough to die for my country, old enough to fight for it too. So you're saying at that 18 year olds are not mature enough for this game?

Point in fact my great uncle died on a Corvette that was torpedoed by a U-Boat.  He was 15 - lied about his age to serve with his brother (my grandfather). So young players can't play because they're not mature enough for you?

So Fester, i could say go stuff yourself with your Machiavellian ideas, but no.  I have a better idea - War Thunder has no vehicles. Right up your alley and players cannot smack-talk from the other side. That's your game. Not Ace High.  And I've think you've outgrown us. Time to move on.

With a single hand I would sign the statement lusche made about improving the game. All, except the trash about the Brewster. One thing that I always have been ashamed to tell a potential new comers is the fact that this is not an actual WWII game. No. Its a kind of a mashup. Very gently I have always had to tell my friends that all countries have the same plane setups. And after that, tried to explain it off - as why it doesnt really matter.

well... it does. That is, I believe, the single most essential point of a fact that keeps the history enthusiasts away from this game (and playing most likely IL-2 with its marvelous mods). I have fought many battles against IL-2 gamers in some of our meetings, and this has always been the point I can not argue against.

The problem with doing Axis vs Allies in sandbox game is that people will sometimes just switch to the side with the best plane at a given time if in a rolling planeset or in a static planeset, particularly a 1945 one, they favor the side likely to win, which means the Allies due to their better offensive power.  The only way you can avoid that is by fantasy adjustments unit abilities or by adding historically less significant or almost made it units to one side or the other such as the M-26 Pershing for the Allies and the He177A-5 and G8N 'Rita' for the Axis.

For someone who wants to "elevate" the game by eliminating the "squeakers" and "riff raff", the comments made in and the general tone of your post screams that you may be part of some of the problems you wish to fix.   Physician, heal thyself.....just sayin'.

FYI - I would not personally mind paying more per month....but I have a feeling that would only drive off many good players who are not so fortunate financially.   You should also take into account that AH's newly emerging "competition" tout their games as "free-to-play".  One could argue they are anything but free but I will not digress or derail the conversation by exploring that further.

Hard to observe when you can't enter the arena. There's more to observation
than reading the limited stats that are made available on the website.


After spending more than 11,000 hours in the LW alone in 8 years, having been a tainer and doing the stats stuff for ~5 years (and much deeper than I have shown so far) while constantly cross checking all sources of information (including in game),
I doubt that most of my observations and conclusions I have made recently have been made totally invalid by not playing for 1.5 months now. In which no gameplay mechanism was changed by the way.

So ...    :P

What is he planning?  :noid

 :rofl  :aok

The prosaic reality:

No stats to be seen anywhere in this room with 2 large windows (well, the view utterly sucks, but there are windows neverthenless), I just came back from a visit at the opera house (having watched the operetta "Die Csardasfürstin") and I only plan to fire up my virtual drum machine and to maltreat my Ibanez for some time.

So believe it or not, my life ain't all about AH.  :old:

Think about how someone who's only recently been exposed to the game might think after initially reading your post....like my 13 year old son who read it and then asked me what you have against people on welfare, was AH really going to go to 50 dollars a month, etc.  etc.

Again, just sayin'....

- Get rid of the vehicles. It's a FLIGHT SIM for god's sake! Variety Keeps Interest.  If vehicles were removed the player base would drop and there would be a lot of people who'd move on due to lack of interest.
- Fix the bombers. Remove the drones .. ONE MAN ONE PLANE.  And force them to fly at historical speeds. Take away the EZ mode bombsight. They shouldn't be able to hit anything smaller than a city from 30K feet JUST LIKE IN REAL WARAs a person who can routinely take HQ's down in one pass, I think this might be a good point, but I still like it haha.
- Delete the ability to switch countries or to "chat" with the enemy. That's just wrong.  Did you ever hear about brave American pilots to fly for the US today and the Nazis tomorrow? That's treason in real life, son, and so it should be hereObsessive.  This is a "game"
- Where there "rooks" or "knights" in WWII? No, it was Allies vs Axis. The current "countries" are a travesty, make it like the REAL THING - Axis vs Allies, and with a rolling plane set.Like the two country thing, it's not possible to create balance AND historical preservation with this plan.
- Get the dam collisions right. BOTH have to take damage, just like in real life. Don't tell me about "lag", that's just an excuse for crappy programmingAgree totally with the first half, low blow on the second.
- Tanks are no AA vehicles. Tank rounds should not damage planes at all!So theoretically a Sherman couldn't damage a plane with it's guns?  No matter how statistically improbable???
- Fuel burn should always be 1.0Logical
- Get the price up, to at least 50$. Preferably more.  HTC will make more money while the riff raff will be driven away. Those skilless foulmouthed welfare people are very detriment to the game, a higher percentage of successful upper class people will bring back class to the game as well.This is why no one should take this seriously.  If you really think this, then you aren't as smart as I think you are.  50 people would be active subscribers and you know it.  If wealthy people don't play this game in a recession, what in the reasonable WORLD makes you think it would bring ANY benefit to this game to drive away 75% of the players.  I have more to add, but See Rule #4.
- WWII planes had no neaon signs hover above them! NO icons and NO inflight dar! If you wanna have dar, have someone sitting in tower and give you updates.It's a game, and since all countries can fly the same plane, how could you possibly decide WHICH P51 to shoot at.  Related to the point above, I get that but again, you cannot guarantee balance AND historical accuracy
- Fix the Spixteen and the magic Brewster! They are a parody of the real planes, they should not be able to accelerate to 400mph while going straight up!Couldn't agree more, they need to plug holes before making the boat bigger.
- PERK everything but a few ENY 40 planes. Wanna fly something better than a P-40C? EARN IT!I would tend to agree with this very much so, but I think the ENY system AND perks system needs a real long redevelopment.  This could be a GINORMOUS fix to the game
- Killshooter is retarded. There was friendly fire in WW2, so it should be here. This one should definitely improve combat!You really ok with holding kills and flying for an hour for some D-bag to ruin it just cause he's bored???
- B-25's did take off from CV's and B-29's did carry atomic bombs! So they should do both in this WW2 SIMULAtION as well!Logical.  Make A-bombs cost about 2,000 perks lol
- BAN squeakers. This is an ADULT game. No one under 21 has any business being here. Obviously an attempt at a joke...
- Stop the silly filtering and moderation. it's a COMBAT game, and men in combat ain't polite all the time. If you can't bear it, go play some FB farm games, you %!!&§&%" ! Toughen up!+1
Being who you are, I can't believe that you believe in all of these points, nonetheless, some are good points.  Doubt you'll see traction on a single one of them...

There isn't a single original thought in my original post. I just remembered some of the worst ideas that popped up repeatedly over the years and put it in a single post.
I expected the occasional laugh and then other players to add other "fixes" for AH they have heard of. I'm rather perplexed by the fact that anybody who has followed the BBS and my post history in particular could take it seriously  :huh

I don't agree, lusche's behaviourial pattern suggests he is trying to root out some issue or problem within the community, wether it be perceptions or plain ol' personal rot on account of many here.

I say that because I do the same, but by dissecting people's reason or showing them inline obvious redundancies in situations; like such:

Hitech seems to forget that he is taking joy in this by responding to it and reveals he is actually part troll himself deep down (must be all the years of staring at the screen, boyo).

And at the same time luche's blatantly obvious "whistleing" emoticon is an attempt at making this light-hearted so that he does not avoid the hammer, while serving his wholesome purpose.

My own personal qualm is that he is getting away with it because of all the previous "work" he has done in this regard, which has bought him "credit" with HTC, and rightly so: I wish HTC would admit to such situations occuring and be open about it as to provoke good behaviour among the community. But also I do not think number four should be slapped onto someone so lightly because of another's lack of perceptive ability for lightheartedness as a way of finding solace from his own worries (Hitech).

Jealous much?   HTC doesn't have a problem with it.   What I find interesting is, if all of these things would've gotten you banned, then what happened to the original posters?  As Lusche said, none of this 'wishes' were originally his, just a compliation of failed/misguided wishes in a light-hearted joke.  Sadly, some of the responders either didn't take this into consideration or missed it entirely.    I for one found it hilarious, and it showed the colors of quite a few of the members of this BBS, HiTech included.  Showing that HiTech has a sense of humor.

You cannot be serious.  To me it sounds like in the past you may have been slapped by HiTech for a post or series of post.

I know its less wise to let the owner be blind to the way things are sometimes. Some of the greatest things were ruined due to lack of vigilance and fear of reprisal on behalf of the part of the community. I understand the desire for high quality players and interaction, which ironcically is one of the "joke" items on the original post but being pushed around by rules that can seemingly be bent at the slightest cross of mental perspective is something I am willing to give my virtual avatar up for. Even if it be my last one.

See rule #5

See rule #4 .

Don't forget rule #15 - You own it.

The first was in a question form without the question mark.

See rule #11 and/or #12

The second was a positive contribution to the thread, if you wish to pick out how it is not please reason it otherwise, instead of hearsay. The fact that you were able to invoke the above "yes man" typical responses further reveals the generalities in your approach.

See rule #4 (the first half, in regards to your question about missunderstanding it's later half, IE: "If you cannot make a positive contribution to the thread, then just stay out of it.")
Your original complaint should of incurred a rule #8, and the post itself was a violation of rule #2.
And your most recent accusation should have incurred a rule #7

In the end of all things, you should really remember rule #15.


*exits stage right for violating rule #13 earlier and #5 presently.*   :banana:

This entire thread really isn't anything that brings to the front any change, other than the humiliation and out-casting of people who like those 'sinful' ideas.  The great thing about this community is that it is completely run as a class system.  If you are in the self-proclaimed elite group that steers the opinions and decisions made for the community through humiliation and bully tactics, then you basically can do as you please (What is being suggested about Lusche, of course MUCH more politely).  

If you happen to be in that group of people who are told, "play don't talk" by the upper class, then so long as you know your role then you are seen as "cool".  Step outside those boundaries and it's your turn at the pillory.

Then there's that class of "newb", you've only been here 2 years so what could you possibly know about this game.  It's amazing to see a bunch of cartoon bullies circle these people like piranhas would circle a cow.  We stress the importance of no tolerance for bully's in our schools but as adults we do it so frequently, some are experts at it.  You treat these people like crap, and you shouldn't.

It really is soooo high school, only for people who are absolute maniacs about air warfare.  (I use maniacs in a very positive connotation, I'm literally constantly amazed by some of these guys)

I bet $5 it has more to do with the fact that nobody has even hit the report to moderator button on this thread's OP than it does with your explanation... although it is likely now beyond 156 hours, 11-pages, and an established conversation (within the rules of this board) too futile at this point.

But, I agree with your post at heart, there is indeed a good lesson to be had here in regards to humility.

It was blatantly obvious by the 2nd item on the list that the only intent of the post was to make people laugh. I was LOL when I read the post. I found it so funny, I got up and went across the hall said to skuzzy, go read this post. Not long after I hear laughter coming from his office.

Trolls are written to try suck people into getting angry.

Hence this is  not a troll.

Now it may be that I find it funny simply because I have heard so many ideas in the last 20 years that are  completely not thought threw. Just as every item on the list was not thought out very well.

I also finding amazing to the point of being speechless on some posts,  that anyone could have thought Lusche was serious.

- Fix the bombers. Remove the drones .. ONE MAN ONE PLANE.  And force them to fly at historical speeds. Take away the EZ mode bombsight. They shouldn't be able to hit anything smaller than a city from 30K feet JUST LIKE IN REAL WAR
- Fix the .50 cal guns!
- Delete the ability to switch countries or to "chat" with the enemy. That's just wrong.  Did you ever hear about brave American pilots to fly for the US today and the Nazis tomorrow? That's treason in real life, son, and so it should be here
- Where there "rooks" or "knights" in WWII? No, it was Allies vs Axis. The current "countries" are a travesty, make it like the REAL THING - Axis vs Allies, and with a rolling plane set.
- Get the dam collisions right. BOTH have to take damage, just like in real life. Don't tell me about "lag", that's just an excuse for crappy programming
- Tanks are no AA vehicles. Tank rounds should not damage planes at all!
- Fuel burn should always be 1.0
- Get the price up, to at least 50$. Preferably more.  HTC will make more money while the riff raff will be driven away. Those skilless foulmouthed welfare people are very detriment to the game, a higher percentage of successful upper class people will bring back class to the game as well.
- WWII planes had no neaon signs hover above them! NO icons and NO inflight dar! If you wanna have dar, have someone sitting in tower and give you updates.
- Fix the Spixteen and the magic Brewster! They are a parody of the real planes, they should not be able to accelerate to 400mph while going straight up!
- PERK everything but a few ENY 40 planes. Wanna fly something better than a P-40C? EARN IT!
- Killshooter is retarded. There was friendly fire in WW2, so it should be here. This one should definitely improve combat!

Lusche's post was intended to be nothing more than making a joke and getting people to laugh, just like a thread that SAPP made a couple of years ago (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,255725.0.html) in a similar fashion.  It wasn't intended to make fun of any player or group of players, it was only meant to have fun and create some laughs.  A sign of a healthy community is one that can laugh at itself from time to time.

I think the team HiTech has assembled has done a great job. On any given night or any given terrain there is always something to do in the LWA. I started up for the second time when the WW1 arena began. I love those old biplanes ( and triplane ), but when the numbers diminished I started driving GV's and have been enjoying them ever since. I up a fighter occasionally and take a bomber out on a mission as well when there are no GV battles. I have GV'ed in all three counties and I have found there is a great community in all three countries. The cooperation and comradery among the GV'ers is outstanding. The thing about being successful is you have to be patient. It takes a long time to learn. I have received allot help when flying too,  but I have not spent enough time to get to know the flying community.  It may indeed be a flight sim but the GV community is pretty big now and when you look at overall numbers GV's help keep the sim fresh. I am looking forward to the three new tanks in the next update. If the LWA is no longer your thing, try out the MWA because it is smaller and more personal. You can chat with your opponent and carry on a friendly conversation.......which is a little harder to do in the LWA. The MWA is much more relaxed.

My two cents.

I would respectfully like to make a suggestion:  Change the forum rules so that postings such as this (i.e. made in good fun and jest) be clearly marked as such so new or potential players are not confused e.g. my son. 

How much more clearly marked do you want it? It was a joke in my eyes. Jumped right out.

Maybe this needs to be added to help those no in on the in joke.

I don't agree, lusche's behaviourial pattern suggests he is trying to root out some issue or problem within the community, wether it be perceptions or plain ol' personal rot on account of many here.

I say that because I do the same, but by dissecting people's reason or showing them inline obvious redundancies in situations; like such:

Hitech seems to forget that he is taking joy in this by responding to it and reveals he is actually part troll himself deep down (must be all the years of staring at the screen, boyo).

And at the same time luche's blatantly obvious "whistleing" emoticon is an attempt at making this light-hearted so that he does not avoid the hammer, while serving his wholesome purpose.

My own personal qualm is that he is getting away with it because of all the previous "work" he has done in this regard, which has bought him "credit" with HTC, and rightly so: I wish HTC would admit to such situations occuring and be open about it as to provoke good behaviour among the community. But also I do not think number four should be slapped onto someone so lightly because of another's lack of perceptive ability for lightheartedness as a way of finding solace from his own worries (Hitech).

1.)Quite the little Sociologist aren't we

2.)  :confused: Am I the only one who has no idea where MyG is going with this one?

3.) HiTech how many times we gots to tell you that you ain't allowed to have no sense of humor!? Now gets back to that coading you sposed to be doin before we get the rubber hose!   :D

Now I shall spit out the hook that I pray is there, because if there isn't one, I'm just going to feel sad and confused for awhile.  :lol

I'm deeply touched...  Eight years of AH for me, and no one ever called my a 'cartoon game god'. 

Until now  :rock



I will mail that to my mom, put it on my resume... And who knows? Maybe that title will finally get me laid!?! (Need to make me a 'Cartoon Game God' shirt for that purpose) :x

Hey if it gets you some, then you are welcome.  If not....meh.........

Funniest thread I have ever seen here in 12 years  :cheers: i think "Game God" should be a title for Avatars

This chart shows what I have learned in my time here.

It really does show how some here take things WAY to seriously!! 
Now back to the cartoon skies !!!   :airplane:

Thanks Snail
