Title: The Blue Knights and you.
Post by: hubsonfire on April 06, 2006, 12:31:00 PM
After reading some rather unflattering remarks directed at my squad, I started wondering, "What does the community as a group think of us? What are you experiences with the BKs? Would you recommend this product/service to friend? Would you consider us helpful?"

I know a lot of the guys have been playing for ages, many starting in AW, or WB, and have been flying, interacting, and drinking with perhaps hundreds or thousands of people in the communities of this genre of games over that period of time. Surely we can't be all that bad.

So, anyway, what do you really think of the BKs?

In my experience it takes 1 to make a smart bellybutton remark on the BBS, 3 to follow up, and 3 more to start a mini flame war between themselves, all in good fun mind you, and then the topic has a 60% probability of being hijacked into a BKs suck thread or just locked.  

I don't run across BKs much in the arenas but from what I've heard....they are all talk:p



P.S. Surprised you haven'tbeen sued by the corporation for using their initials....unless one of you owns Burger King....:noid

I was actually hoping for honest feedback on this troubling issue. I do a little bit of everything in the game, I help when I can, I answer questions, I try to make light of bad situations, and offer some semblence of entertainment in exchange for the enjoyment I get from this game and community.

I'm troubled by the idea that anyone from HTC would say that I am what is wrong with the community.

with the exception of Dale himself perma-banning the BK's unless they change this or that (which i doubt would even do anything), every one of the BK's will say, act, and do how they choose.

You guys act like I would imagine a real crack Fighter squadron in WW2 probably acted. BK's are good and they know it. Virtual fighter jocks, just like the real ones, knowing and believing you're good, maybe even the best is half the battle. In fighter combat you have to really believe that, whether it's true or not depends on the opponent and the situation, but the psychological advantage of believing in your prowess can be the difference. On the BBS the BKs are alot of things at once,  prontificators, practical jokers, chest thumpers, elitists and just generally active and interesting members of the community...

One thing that irks me, and likely others,  as one who likes to go on lone crusades here on the BBS on topics I truly believe in, is you can't just debate with one BK, all of them will jump in and get their fingers in the pie even if what they are adding is irrelevant or off-topic to the discussion...But, I guess that's just natural as you guys behave like a close-knit squadron on the BBS just like you do in a furball...

Of course I care. I'm as much a member of the community as anyone else, and I like to think I'm helping, not hurting.

That's interesting Zazen, but I hadn't drawn a parallel between our actions in game and on the boards. I guess that's likely due to our generally similar personalities and interests, and also due partly to, for want of a better word, witchhunting, or maybe headhunting. Some of the things that have been said to us via PMs on the board, or private text/vox is absolutely shocking. It seems certain groups really carry a deep hatred toward us, and I just don't understand why. However, they still hate us, and they tend to look for us, in here or in game, and I suppose that puts us on the defensive a lot more, and therefore probably prone to stick together.

Hey hubs,
I'm just joking here but I couldn't resist
posting this for Lazs.  

Lazs, I'm just jokin' with ya man!
I just couldn't resist!

Hey hubs, was wondering.
Any cops on your squad?

Been a cop  for the last 22 years (this month) and am always
interested in saying hello to brother officers in the game.
Just thought the name was a giveaway.  :)

Is there really something wrong with the community? The BBS kind of sucks with all the Furballer vs Toolshedder bull****. I think any good points made by either side get lost in flames and personel grudges. I didnt buy in to the " BK's are the reason its this way" comment. Its hard to take you seriously on this Hub, because you're Hub. And you honestly being "troubled" by any of it is hard to buy. I don't 100% agree with everything I read from a BK on the state of the game but I don't aree with everything in my squad forum either.

 I dont know all the BK's but I do like the one's I know for the most part. I really enjoy getting my bellybutton kicked by Lev. I think it makes me a better pilot. Same with Morph and Stang. Wadke and Slapshot were cool as hell the few times I've been able to fly with them. Superdud cracks me up and he's a good stick to boot. I've had some good times winging with Dedalos in the old CT and in th MA with Jaxxo. Grits and I go back a ways now and I like being able to beat the hell out of atleast one BK:D  You I liked better before you were a BK. I kind of miss the Baba salutes. The rest of the guys I don't know that well, but I'm not seeing where you guys are bad for this community. My 2 cents.

You guys are like an exclusive club. People watch you thru the fence but aren't allowed in. Whats more is they see, thru the fence, how much fun you are having often at their expense. That's going to, at least sub-consciously, cause some folks, especially those yearning for your hitherto unattainable type and calibre of fun, to become envious, contemptuous and develop irrational animosity towards you. It's just human nature.

I think you'll find that people and squadrons able to attain something approaching your level of prowess in-game tend to develop a sense of respect and comraderie toward you. In many ways there are the 'haves' and the 'have-nots' of AH in terms of skill & talent, the BKs are archetypically representative of the 'haves' so naturally the archetypical examples of the 'have nots' on the other end of the spectrum are going to feel threatened even without direct cause to do so...

Post by: Mustaine on April 06, 2006, 01:22:49 PM
ok, if you want it I won't be sarcastic.

I am a slow dim-witted oaf myself. when it comes to here, and boards in general even after 4+ years I am a n00b. I can't tell a troll from a real post 90% of the time.

It is because of the actions of the BK's over these 4 years I have learned a serious dis-trust to anything i read on the intardnet. when are you serious, and when are you joking, i personally have no clue.

now there are a bunch of AHer's i have meet in person, but i haven't got to "know" them well enough to say i can read them. the few that i have, i can see what they are saying. slapshot and icer are great examples. they are cool, and i enjoyed meeting / hanging out with them at the last con, but i would not even come close to say i "know" them as a person.

now this is just me personally, but i am a distrustful person by nature.

I think there are 2 parts to the BK's. the "core" guys, and then the ones folded in from the 13th TAS thing. i can spot a difference in the way they act in-game and on the board.

all that said, as a majority my view of the BK's is they are flight sim elitists. they are really talented, they know it, and they are not afraid to show it. there are exceptions to every rule, and that is why i said majority instead of all.

zanzen just made a good point about the fence thing.

i looked at your website once and there was this funnay about "you are not allowed to join, we don't like you" or something. it made me chuckle. there are times like the birdo-nath film i laughed my bellybutton off. but that doesn't make you any better or any worse than any other group in AH.

Amen to that...Squads like BKs and the 475th go a long way in making being a fighter jock 'cool' to the noobs and vets alike. For every tard squad like the LCA we need a non-tard squad of air to air combat pursists to keep the universe in balance...Otherwise AH will simply devolve into a festering cesspool of toolshedding anarchy where good, protracted fights are as rare as an Lgay7 driver that doesn't always go for the HO...

Post by: Mustaine on April 06, 2006, 01:32:48 PM
a few other things...

for a minute a year ago, i wanted to be a BK. i wanted to learn how to dogfight that good.

then i realised the whole other side to it. i think you get tooooooo wrapped up in the "furballers VS toolshedders" thing. someone pays their money, they can fly how they want. they want to bomb your toolsheds, don't come here and cry about it, it's old and tired.

at first it seemed you (as a group) were trying to open people up to a different type of gameplay. in fact it was even stated in a post just like that. you (as a group) wanted the toolshedders to learn abotu dogfighting, as a style of gameplay. there were and will be bomber guys who just don't knwo how to fly a fighter, and without people trying to show them other paths they will never know.

there are also dedicated toolshedders. i have met them in game. they never have and never will have the desire to furball. no matter how loud you yell they will not listen. there's nothing wrong with them or their gameplay. it is just as bad as trying to force you guys to up heavy ponies and kill FH's all night.

i think the "argument" has drifted from you (as a group) trying to show people possibilities of different gameplay, to being the dedicated spokesperson for a fundamental change in the nature of the MA.

3 years ago you guys weren't so "hardcore" about having a fightertown as an example.

Delta, Badboy58 is a police officer, up in the northeast somewheres.

Slash, our particular salute, while amusing to some of those in the know no longer gets past the filter. I got tired of automuting myself trying to say "hi".  ;)

I don't know that there's anything particularly wrong with the community, other than the arguing over what's wrong with the community. It seems a lot of the long term players have specialized in various aspects of the game, and there seems to be an excess of friction between these groups.

It's just cartoon airplanes, as I often say, and I think tensions run a little too high at times. I've probably been guilty of less-than-flattering remarks and opinions at times, but I've tried to be honest, and look for solutions, not scapegoats.  To say that we, as people, are flawed, and have somehow ruined the game... that's so blatantly offensive that I thought I'd see what the community itself, and not some self-appointed spokesman, had to say about us.

Interesting feedback so far.

Probably half of which, if not more, are replies in the squad forums. I don't recognize your ID, and have no clue who you are ingame, so that means we probably haven't had any interaction, which would make you one of the guys just looking for a post by one of us to start stirring the pot.

Thanks for not contributing anything.

As far as the fence and elitist remarks, I don't see it that way. Granted, we have several well-regarded sticks in the group, but there are many capable pilots in the MA, and we have but a few. I'd say the personalities and interests of our squad have resulted in the current lineup, and not just relative skill at cartoon piloting. Anyone can become dangerous in a furball when that's how they spend 95% of their time in game.

The problem as has been stated about a billion times is a handfull of these 'dedicated toolshedders' can keep fights killed to a point where there is basically no protracted fights of any kind at all for hours and even days on end. The moment a fight starts to heat up, here they come with 25-35k b24/Lancs or screaming down in heavy jugs to *womp* the FHs down. There's really no way to stop them with bombing as simple as it is, so long as they are either willing to die or climb over 20k to kill FHs/CVs...

So, it's not like the BKs and other air to air purists dislike them personally or in some abstract way because of their dichotomous view of the game. It's simply that the toolshedders can and do quite often completely prevent us from playing the game we enjoy and having fun. What makes this worse is a sizable portion only toolshed specifically for the intent purpose of preventing furballers from furballing, Fightertown killers are a prime example, but they manifest themselves on every map. These folks deliberately and methodically seek out the best fights on the map and toolshed them dead, if the fight picks up elsewhere they follow to repeat the process...I can't tell you how many times an irrate toolshedder has said something to the effect, "You guys need to stop furballing you are wasting valuable resources, if you don't stop and help me with base XXX I will drop the FHs at the enemy base you are furballing at"...and of course they do...So, be carefull when you say who is telling who how to play...

Post by: Mustaine on April 06, 2006, 01:53:39 PM
see zazen i don't want to take this off topic and all, but i disagree. a buff pilot flying "too high to intercept" had to take the time to get there. the fighter should take time to climb to intercept too. there is no excuse it "takes to long" to intercept bombers. if you want to ensure a certian type of gameplay you should have to make a sacrifice sometimes too. fly up and do air patrol. if you are soo good killing things, bombers are easy to kill. take up a 190 and you should kill at least 2 boxes before you run out of ammo, at least. with the hit% some of the furballers have they should get 9 kills.

is someone wants to reset the arena, and you expect them to work the whole rest of the map, leaving a highly concentrated area for the end when the "enemy" can stage counter attacks from you are asking them to make a sacrifice in their style of gameplay. it may not seem that way to you, but it is the same thing.


who makes the sacrifice?

Post by: Schatzi on April 06, 2006, 01:53:51 PM
I reaspect the BKs as a squad. They are good virtual fighter pilots and usually good wingmen/opponents.

I dont like some of the actions/words some members of the BKs have taken/take on the boards and in game, but thats THEIR cup of tea, not mine. They are just simply ignored by me.

The few BKs i know better i get along with well. BK or not ;).
To me its not a matter of the squad, but the individual.

As I think hub said before, the only thing more boring than being a toolshedder is fighting them, sure we could spend  an hour chasing a 25k B24 around, but that's not fun, nor is it practical when it's never just one it's a steady stream of them.

Ignoring the fact that climbing to 25-30k to chase pretty fast and extremely well gunned b24's is extremely boring, doing so successfully is a royal pita and anything but a forgone conclusion. Furballing skill means nothing when you're struggling to keep up to a 25k B24 only to be pilot wounded 1k out by its turbo lasers. By the time you corner and 'maybe' shoot down his entire formation your FHs are long gone...

So, assuming you do all this, not only have you wasted your lengthy flight time in almost certain vein, you're still not able to just fight in air to air combat vs. other fighters so the result is the same, whether they end up dropping the FHs or not...No thanks, we're not going to let the tail wag the dog...

Post by: hubsonfire on April 06, 2006, 02:43:31 PM
Okay, this is one of the things that pisses me off. While I haven't always been a shining example of taking cartoon planes seriously, the fact that no matter what we post, or say, or offer, it's immediately labelled as a troll, and then people start taking offense at that, and then we're the subject of multiple emails to Skuzzy, complaining about how we're making fun of them on the boards.

I'll use fewer words.
 
I'm curious to see if a majority of the community thinks we're the problem, or that we're just like everybody else- some vocal, some not vocal, all enthusiasts and players of the same game.

I started this post because a person who has more influence on new players than we do, has identified us, by name, as the culprit for all negative aspects of the game. He's implanted in the next generation of players (who hadn't even heard of us) an animosity that will carry itself into the game, and onto the boards, further inciting more of the behaviors that he's claimed we've introduced, and that have ruined the game.

I never saw the BKs in this light; I never saw any particular squad as being this sort of menace. I wanted to know if this point of view was unique, or if most thought it was true.

i find the most fun thing about BK's is that they can see humour in themselves.  if someone takes the piss out of us, generally we will join in and laugh at our own expense. (if we are already not having banter with one another)

99% of the people here cannot see humour in themselves and take the game far too seriously. the BK attitude is almost Britishlike.

those that "get it" like us.  it is a game that is supposed to be fun after all.

From my longtime experience in AH I've not noticed a thing different about the BKs then anyone else here.   I really don't know what the fuss is about.  Guess those who have none or are just getting some experience in the game venting frustration.  Most Squads have good sticks and some who are fairly new to the game.  

"Much Ado about nothing"

Personally I've not seen a BK go ballistic when I've been on.  And rarely run into them when I am on.  Always courteous to me when I do have the opportunity to tangle or chat with them.

honest reply.  (yeah, ok fine ya' hooked me)

I like many/most of the BK's.  They are fun to fight, and most are talented sticks.  I find alot of their humor hillarious, and I agree w/ NB that they add a certain "charm" to this game.

Here is where I agree w/ Ren tho'.

I think that many/most of the new players see how y'all act, and because you ARE such good pilots, they will emulate you.  So the end result is that we now have a crop of noobs chest thumping, insult tossing, and trash talking.  The noobs don't understand the humor in it.  They don't get the inside jokes.  They have not flown with y'as for years, and "get it".   All they see is trash talk, insults and chest thumping, so they in turn do the same, no quite knowing the humor in it.    

I seriously don't think the BK's understand the influence they have on new players.  And over time, because of that influence, we now have a large chunk of pilots smack talking, chest thumping, insult tossing and being disruptive.  Think of it.  Just how many players in AH now act BK'ish when flying, or on the BBS?  

Tons.

The new pilots have not read countless thousands of posts by BK's and understand the humor.  They have not fought y'all hundreds of times and "get" the ch200 banter y'all toss out after a fight.  All they see are some of the best pilots in the game, and how they act, and figure that's how the "cool" people act.

Ok, dont rambling.  my 2 cents.

I can't give an opinion one way or the other as I can't remember running into any of you guys. There are so many who talk childish trash on 200 unless someone P.M.'s me or just goes over the top I don't note their game ID & I sure don't go look up the squad they belong to. On the other hand, if I run into guys that are just really great about being friendly I don't make it a point to remember them either, but they are usually nice in discussions later & I remember THAT.....sometimes.:(

Okay, now I'm really stumped. Who are the good BKs, and how do they act in game? I never see the BKs chest thumping, I never see the smack talking, I don't see any banter that is on par with anything else you'd commonly see on 200.  We don't get personal, we don't talk **** about familiies, or handicapped people, etc. We don't fill the buffer with talk about homosexual acts, or degrade women.

Were I to post, in here, the things that I or any of the BKs receive via PM or private vox in game, my post would immediately be edited, if I could even find ways to spell those words without tipping off the filter.

I just don't get it. I can understand that there were always be rivalries and conflicting personalities, but nothing near the scale that's being suggest, and I just don't see how we could have ruined the game.

Anyone have a story to share, or in some way prove any of their statements about us? With the exception of lute, I don't recognize any of the IDs who've said we are the problem, so I'm curious as to what it is that turned you against us.

Post by: forHIM on April 06, 2006, 04:02:48 PM
The BKs on the board have seemed to change slightly, or I have.  I remember nopoop's posts and relish the older posts he put up.  The 13th TAS and BKs were great squad, still are in their combined format.  Its just either my inability to laugh at the BBS trolls or just the percieved slights members of the BKs appear to make that make me rethink the squad in general.  

This is not to say that in game they are any different than they were.  They still kick my tail or if I'm lucky enough clear it.  I know that if I'm in the neighborhood of the BKs, I have to be quick about my kills or all I get is assists :)

My recent reflection on the BKs as a squad is mostly tarnished by the BBS stuff.  It probably relates back to the MOAT thread and the subsequent heightened awareness of the BKs postings.  I wouldn't say they're the bane of HTC's community.

I see the threads on A2A vs A2G fighting stills that are rampant and think back to the days when the MAW had 3+ squadrons and were very into the land capture element of this game.  I see the very same thing happening now, as the game gets new blood in, "new" ideas are rinsed and repeated.  This is by no means a slam toward the MAW squad.  If you take it that way, please accept my apology, your squad was used just as an example as to what I've seen.

After all that, the BKs are part of the community.  We'd be lacking without their input.  No single squad should be targeted as being the bane of a community.  Certain squads will be more vocal than others and stand out in peoples mind, but there are countless numbers of people who are the silent majority.  Just because they are vocal they will be more likely to have strong opinions formed about them.


Just in case you're thinking who's this noob, my old BBSID was dfl8rms and I have been a noob since 2001 :)

ok, let me explain further.

hmm...

Ok, have you ever someone famous wears an outfit that looks great on them, but then you see someone in public wearing the same thing and it's horrible?  (go back to the spandex craze many years ago.  Looked good on the movie stars, BAD on that 300lbs grandma walking the mall)

Or better yet.  When I was a young lad, Steve Martin had a comedy album out called King Tut.  (yeah i'm old).  At on point, he stops the joke he was doing, and suddenly yells out "grandpa..... bought a rubber".  And it was funny.  It was the way he said it, and the reaction from the crowd was good, so my 6yr old (or however old I was, maybe 7 or 8) mind thought it was funny too.  I had NO clue what it meant, but it was funny sounding, so I would say it too.  Here I was walking around at age 6-8 spontaniously shouting "Grandpa... bought a rubber" to my parents horror.  I just didn't understand what I was saying.  

It's like that.  

I never said the BK's were over the top per. se on the chest thumping etc.  They are infact (in the MA at least) fairly "mild" compared to some of the stuff you see typed there.  The point I was making is that alot of the over the top, crossing the line stuff you DO see in the MA, are pilots trying to be "cool" like some of the "elite" pilots in the game.  The problem is they don't "get it" and end up just being offensive and rude.

Say some noob sees Jaxxo say something particularly offensive to me on ch200.  They don't understand I know it's a joke.  They just see Jaxxo tell Lute he's a (insert random insult here) and figure that's how it's done.  So the next time they die, the start spouting mean crud on ch200, thinking that is what should happen.

Y'all do have an affect on the new pilots.  Y'all ARE very vocal, and have a pretty large presence both in the MA and here on the BBS.  The new pilots will emulate ya's.  It's that whole "butterfly flapping his wings causes a tidal wave on the other side of the world" bit.

Lute: okay, presumably my bias as "one of them" prevents me from seeing it exactly that way, but I undertand what you're driving at. I still think our occasional outbursts are anemic compared to much of what is said, but then again, 200 is pretty mild compared to open chat in other games I played, while it's garbage to the smaller fraction of the community who remembers the days when they could look at a roster and identify every name. Suppose it's mostly perspective.

I was talking to him last night and he said something about his meds running out and his breakup with Jaxxo.  Not sure if it has anything to do with this.

I won't deny that any BK is capable, and has at times carried on as described, but I fail to believe that it is consistent enough for anyone to believe that this is a trait of the BK squad and thats what "cool" people do.

I have seen CH 200 hatefull diatribes, by the same unsaid individuals, on a consistent basis, who seem to get away with it constantly. These are the ones that I think cause more damage and set a bad precedent for the newer players.

Smack talking, chest thumping, insult tossing and being disruptive ... everyone will cross these barriers sometime during their tenure in AH, but the real question is ... is it consistent. I challange anyone to show that the BKs exhibit these actions/emotions on a consistent basis within the MA.

What I typically see is friendly banter or friendly finger poking by BK pilots. The friendly finger poking is more than likely understood by who is getting poked, but may be mis-understood by those who don't know the history of the two individuals or intent of the poking when they see it in the text buffer.

We made fools out of people. Clapped ourselves on the back for it.  The people that didn't think it was funny, they were Morons and 'tards and needed to get a life because the BKs had fun at others expense and that was all that counted.

Worked before..........Post a sincere sounding thread, wait for people to respond, then poke them with sticks for being fools to respond to a nice sounding BK thread.

Most of my dealings with your crew have been in the BBS or during the running of Rangoon. For the latter, some of the best footage I got was from guys like Furball. And I think I ran into SlapShot on occasion in the MA and he pwned me in his F6F (at least that's my recollection ... it was like a year ago). So from a skill perspective I give them a lot of credit.

In the BBS I've always enjoyed the debates I've had with the BK's. We don't always agree, but even then we always seem to "agree to disagree" without descending too deep into acrimony. They don't just spout off opinions without some kind of basis in fact or logic to support them. The BK's never crossed any lines with me, anyway, that made me think less of them.

Recently, though, to be totally honest, a lot of the things said and positions taken by variouos BK's have been very out of character.

Even being a toolshedder and a gv dweeb I find myself respecting the BK's arguments and their skills. No doubt that I think the BKs as one of the best group of sticks in the MA. I know a few of the BKs from ebing ex squadies and elsewhere. I know they are a extremely intelligent and skilled group. But I agree with some of the others on this board in saying that anytime I see a BK post the first thing that comes to mind is its a troll. I usually hold back for a few posts to see if others fall into a trap before I do. I think the BKs as a squad have a huge amount of potential to lead this game and new players into a great direction. Right now its seems that their intelligence and skills are going to no use. But thats their choice and thats how they choose to play.

One could make a case for the BKs being "the root of all evil" on the BBS, but only in the context of "toolshedders vs furballers".  

I don't think they are the cause of all incivility on the board... there were flames when I got here, which predates the BK "exploding" (population-wise).  LW vs the world flame threads probably date from 1946, I imagine...

While I agree that most of the group is very intelligent, they most certainly aren't putting any sort of mental effort into the game, and  also, I don't think anyone should really have to lead another group with regards to gameplay (even in the name of promoting gameplay that tolerates the fun and interests of all, without griefing or radically changing the game, the majority isn't really interested in what we're selling). This is a group that isn't fit to lead itself, let alone hundreds or thousands of players.

Perhaps one of the key differences between us and some groups is that fun is the only objective. The war, points, rank, K/d runs, strategic and tactical strikes meant to disable or cripple the enemy's ability to fight... all old hat. Most of us have been playing for years, many since AW, and we've been through all the usual stuff. The fights are the only truly dynamic aspect of the game (the noobs I used to take lunch money from are now problems, not easy perks; the guys I held my own against often shoot me down), and I think that, and our own bizarre sense of comaraderie are what have kept the game interesting for us.

Anyway, the whole point of this is that Ren, in the LCA thread, stated that it is fact that we have ruined the game, and I found this claim to be utterly preposterous. However, being an accomplice in the death of innocence, I figured I would be slightly biased, and thought I would leave it to the percentage of the community which posts here to respond honestly, as we've really no guage for how the community sees us. There are those more vocal who enjoy harassing us, but I don't consider them to be a good representation of the community at large, being part of the problem themselves.

So, there's your "troll", lye-el. Exactly what I stated it was initially.

I, personally, do not see where the Blue Knight's have ruined anything or are ruining anything......with that said I could invision Lute's perception on the situation and see how it could be feasable maybe.......

I have flown against and along side just about every single Blue Knight, and it is a pleasure either way, against them, you get some of the best fights you will ever have, alongside them you couldn't have any better wingmen, except from someone from your OWN  personal Squad......

there have at times been FEUDS, and prob will be others, maybe/maybe not......

but that is just how things go in this world........

as for saying:
Quote
I think the BKs as a squad have a huge amount of potential to lead this game and new players into a great direction. Right now its seems that their intelligence and skills are going to no use. But thats their choice and thats how they choose to play.


I do not buy into this!  The BK's ( most of them ) are always willing to lend a hand helping, teaching, showing a new comer as well as a long timer a maneuver, a series of BFM/ACM, and work with people.........  They do not go around like some, "Chest Thumping" about how good they are and they can help you get good too..., they do not draw attention to themselves in this instance,  but if you ask them , they will 99% of the time be more than willing to work with a person.

for the many who have been here forever, you should know why Ren feels the way he does, rivalry/feud  who knows, but this one isn't just skin deep  ROFL......

outside of all that:  the original Blue Knights ---> were low key
the BK's (with 13TAS mixed in) are more openly vocal and then the others that came in to their fold........were even more vocal, so that is why the BK's of present seem to be always posting every where, before if you go back to say 2001/2000  the BK's were not like this,  is my take on all of it anyway.

and I am not biting on anything!!!:aok

My fault, my conclusion was under-developed.
My point was not that they go around chest thumping. I hardly think any of them do this. They do help out players in need.

Your first paragraph is evidence of a troll hub.  Think on that one awhile bud.


The occasional, "hey, u got a minute?" PMs are nothing.
The kind of thing I'm talking about I don't dare post; suffice to say, it is material of the caliber that will immediately get one's chat privs removed, and maybe one's account deleted as well.

It's not a troll at all. It's exactly what I've said it is.

Honestly guys, this isn't a troll. At first even I thought it was. That or hub had stopped taking his meds. But after reading this thread and thinking on it, I think it's an excellent question. It does seem that just having ++Teh Blew Nite++ affiliation automatically gets hostility and "furball" label.

Any friends of Bojo's is a friend of mine.  Honestly, the Blue Knights are nothing more than a bunch of guys that like to have fun in game and on the boards.  If what they say or do get people's panties in such a bunch then maybe it's time those people take a step away from the game until the realize it's just a game.

Every flight sim game I've played has had squadrons like this.  In AW there were squads like The Damned, The Shills, +Nomads, 479th FG...in WB it was squads like The Flying Pigs or MOL.  Squadrons like those and the BK don't detract from the game but make the game more colorful and the community as well.

BK's :aok

BK's.

not to many like em, when you they show up in the MA, you've got a fight on your hands.  they are a lot of fun to fly with and against.  

at times i would say you guys are a bit outspoken on the BBS and 200.  on the other hand i feel like you "call them the way they see them."  sometimes BK's fan the flames and nudge threads in different directions.

from my pov, i don't see how this is that much different from everyone else here on the BBS, it's just they have very active members here.  many times i think the BK's are not as "serious" as some other posters about certain subjects, then again we are talking about cartoon planes here:)

like i said earlier, i love flying around the BK's on either side.  they keep nme off your tail on one side, and give you a great fight on the other....what's not to like:)

Hmmm...

You know, I've never run into a BK who wasn't willing to drop everything to take me into the DA and show me some tricks.  I've never run into one who made fun of me when I messed up in there, and I've never run into one who wasn't completely cool with it when I held my own or beat them.  Basically, for all the flak you guys get for having big egos, I've never run into a BK member who, at least 1 on 1 in the DA, actually did.

Same goes for the AoM crew.  Maybe a year or two ago, this whole thread could have been about them, yet I've drawn the same conclusion.

That said, how many people really give you guys a shot like that?  I mean, how many of your detractors actually spend some 1 on 1 time in the DA with you?  I'd bet not many.  Heck, if they did, they wouldn't be detractors anymore.

Despite this, I do have to say I can see where Lute is coming from.  If only because of my own experience breaking into flight sims with AW3 when I was 14.  Look, I know this sounds stupid, and as one gets older they think the idea is truly embarrasing, but young kids that are starting this game really do look up to you guys.  I know I used to look up to the acknowledged good sticks - want to tag along, or emulate them, etc.

And you know, the good sticks back then were the same as the good sticks now.  They'd have the same inside jokes and smacktalk, and kids like me wouldn't get them, so we'd go running our mouths and basically be annoying brats.  Same process happens today.

I'm not saying the BKs are exclusively to blame, anyone who "gets it" is, to some extent, probably guilty.  Still, I certainly think Lute's idea is plausible.

I dunno.  I know it can be fun to fan a flame for awhile, but maybe when you all get someone who's obviously new all worked up, you should try and fill him in that you're just kidding afterward.  The whole thought that if they're going to get upset about it they should remember it's just a game is a good point.  However, I don't necessarily think that attitude (from anyone) will really help the community. Shrug.

S!

Hub

I have to say, in the game I have never had a problem with any BK.  I have flown along side and against you.  They have all been fun (even when I go down in flames).  :aok

Now, on the BBS, that is a different story.  People play the game differently and have many different views on things.  Some of these things seem to get on the nerves of some members of the BKs.  So to stop the tread, they seem to try and hijack it or make comments out of line to the subject.  THIS, I think is wrong, but then that is only my opinion, and we all know what those are worth.

I guess you could say the game and the BBS are two sides of a coin, just as furballers and toolshedders are.  They both serve the community and can/should be able to stand side by side.  

In short, you can say the BKs are "the good, the bad and the ugly".  But then any squad worth anything is, to some extent.

I hope what I have said makes sense to you.  I must say, I didn't read the entire tread and may have missed a point or two, but I get very tired of the "Us V. Them" tirades when that is not the subject at hand.

This from a non furballer, at least most of the time.  lol

I just don't see how we could have ruined the game.

Anyone have a story to share, or in some way prove any of their statements about us? With the exception of lute, I don't recognize any of the IDs who've said we are the problem, so I'm curious as to what it is that turned you against us.
First, my observation about this thread:  I notice that most people who have responded that have interacted with you in the game say they "get" you, you're great guys, etc.  I will have to take them at their words, because I don't believe I have ever had the pleasure.

But as for the boards, just take a look at this thread.  You have (presumably) posted a serious question.  Others have posted serious replies.  What have your squaddies done?  In most cases, tried to turn the whole thing into a joke.  They post, contribute nothing, and yet attempt to demean others.  In this particular thread, they are "attacking" only you and each other.  This is not always the case.  I have seen plenty of threads where a BK is given the old #4.  Being the only contact I and I am sure many others have ever had with any of them, it is natural to assume they conduct themselves the same way in the game.

Since most of you use the same avatar, it is far too easy to confuse you all with each other.  Wasn't too long ago I think all of you had the blue heart only.  Recently some have switched to other things, but except for Dedalos you really have two themes going even today.  Therefore, when one of you steps out of line or offends on the BBs, it is easy to paint all of you with the same broad brush.  I plead guilty to my own intellectual lazyness in this respect.  I see the avatar, not the name.  (One of those darn blue-heart trash talkers posting again.  What kind of drivel are they spewing this time?)

My "story to share":  I played this game quite a while before even finding out the boards were here, let alone actually checking them out.  When I did, one of the first threads I posted in was when someone asked about the strat system, i.e. did hitting strategic targets, i.e. the city, factories, training camps, etc, have any impact on the game.  Several helpful folks were trying to answer the question.  

Then this post comes out of nowhere, complaining about "strateeeegerists ruining the game".  Then another one right after saying something to the effect that all the bomber pilots should quit ruining everyone's fun by dropping fighter hangers.  No one anywhere until that point had said a single word about hangers.  Some, myself included, tried to get the thread back on topic by explaining that we were talking about the strat system, not the hangers, and that bombing the strategic targets had nothing to do with furballing, and could not impact them in any way.  All that came back was that all the "Strateegerists" should basically go to H E Double toothpicks, that bomber pilots were skill-less dweebs, etc., and quit ruining "everyone's fun".

The thread was at that point totally hijacked into a furballer vs toolshedder debate.  No amount of prodding, no logical argument, could bring it back.  You couldn't make a logical argument, because the argument itself was illogical.  At least one, and I believe both initial hijackers were BKs.  But before the thread had run its course, it seemed every BK had come on at some point with some demeaning comment toward someone, generally running in the line of "fighters=good, bombers=dweebs".

You never get a second chance to make a first impression.  Your squad left a doozy with me.  I am sure you left a simliar poor impression to the new player who asked his first question on the boards only to get flamed.  Ditto any new player who reads the boards for the first time to see the flaming begin.  Fairly or unfairly, every little whine and rant about furballing, any polk at another player (even if meant in jest), every pile-on, every #4 received by a BK since then has only added to that impression.  And I have observed precious little to move the needle in the other direction.

Thats as honest as I can make it.  Take it for what its worth.

Ok, my 2 pennies.

I would just like to let the "community" or whatever you call yourself today, think of all this.

Personaly, I dont care what you think. "The Blue Knights and you" doesnt mean a thing to me. I consider myself an individual and intend on keeping it that way. I think most if not all of the BK's will agree with me 110%. Infact I think; I may be wrong, but I think that's where hub was going with this thread. The fact that we are all individuals and are allowed to, and do infact, do what we want, when we want, how we want, is the reason I joined the BK's in the first place.

If you like me, if you like what I fly, how I fly it, where I fly it, fine. If you do not, then that's too bad.

I speak for myself when I say, I dont care what you think about me.

Not to belittle anyone, especially my squad, but despite their intelligence, it's difficult at times to know how to take someone, whether they are serious, or mocking, or sarcastic. The more we act the latter, the less we're taken seriously when we are, in fact, being serious. Factor in that most of them have the attention span of a

Brauno, if it was the thread from just a week or so ago, a few of those posts weren't barbs aimed at porkers, but barbs aimed at porkers who ignore the strat system, ie pork only troops or ord on the field, ignoring trains, convoys, and the factories. That's a longer story, but not knowing it, I fully understand how you could draw the conclusions you have.

I just stole the avatard from another BK, so they would all be the same in long threads. The new recruits after me (howitzer, megadud, superdud, dedalos, skuzzy, etc) all copied mine, so it was like a little mook cloning festival. My apologies.

Vudak, you have now run into that BK. ;)

There is a misconception that all we do, or have done, is furball, and that we have nothing but contempt for the rest of the community. Quite the opposite is true. While we may have been a little vocal about certain aspects of the game, I think you'll find that we've settled to simply seeking compromise, and a respite from griefing. Lots of harsh words in the past, perhaps, but if everyone's happy in the end, and no one died, I'll consider that a fair exchange.

Anyway, I'm itching to shoot cartoon planes down, so I'll wrap this up and log in. and thanks for the feedback.

E25280 I remember that thread and where it went. Toad made an off color comment or rib to the strat system and some shedders piled on like flies to cheese.

Toad was also correct and some didn't like it. Your recollection is not totally correct and your impression could not be more incorrect.


To the rest of you, piss off. LOL Just kidding. These boards are a fun place to mentally spar at times, do a whole lot of joking around with people who don't take themselves too seriously, tweak a few who do and once in a while discuss the game.

Personally I don't drag the BBS into the MA, it is not fair to the people who don't give a rats arse about the BBS and are there to just play the game.

As far as the Furb VS Toolshedder wars - I have nothing against guys that like to play the war game. Heck I love killing bombers although it is almost as easy as vulching if you know where to shoot them and I started in one of the premiere War squads the MAW. But back then we didn't go out looking to kill furballs. We went out to take bases. We didn't kill FHrs we killed cities and suppressed airfields. We always had a goon and never flattened a field because we expected to take it fully functional.

Today the WAR camp always seems to be killing the furball. They always seem to be leveling fields and never have a goon. They rarely cap a field anymore despite a large number of fighters hovering over the top. They not only are playing their game but they are killing the game for those of us who come here for the fights. As long as that is the mentality these boards will echo the strife it creates. BKs or not.

As for most BKs in this thread not adding a serious tone, well the friking thing is about us, what else are we supposed to do but point out how ghey (Not that there is anything wrong with that) hub is for starting it in the first place :D LOLH

Post by: Guppy35 on April 06, 2006, 11:27:09 PM
The key to all of this is simple.  There are WAY TOO MANY people who take this game seriously.  Throw a bunch of guys who don't take it seriously into that mix and it's gonna be trouble :)

AKAK said it right.  It's nothing new to see a squad that approaches the game that way, and it's nothing new to have those who take it seriously not know what to do with that.

Back in AW when a few of us started the Nomads it was basically to thumb our noses at the silliness we saw in the seriousness of folks in Airwarrior.

Despite being very open about how we didn't take it seriously, folks were insistant that we did take it seriously.  They'd then get really mad at us for whatever reason they could manufacture.  Regardless of what we said or did, folks were gonna be ticked off for what they believed they saw in us.

BK's aren't doing anything differently.  They don't take it seriously.  Folks who are wound way too tight in AH can't understand it and it makes them mad.

I can't for the life of me figure out why.  It's still just a game :)

Thankfully I fly with a bunch with that same attitude.  It's the only way to play.

No, it wasn't the one from a week ago.  I guess it would have been back in January, since thats when it says I registered on the boards.  I didn't see a point in actually digging it up -- your question was essentially how people's opinions formed, so my recollection sufficed.

just saw Mars01's post.  Our recollections of the sequence of events obviously differ.  I do recall a couple people rising to the bait -- but the bait was laid.  And it is the baiting that is the "worst offense" in my opinion.  I am not trying to dig up old bodies, so I will just drop it.

"The problem as has been stated about a billion times is a handfull of these 'dedicated toolshedders' can keep fights killed to a point where there is basically no protracted fights of any kind at all for hours and even days on end. The moment a fight starts to heat up, here they come with 25-35k b24/Lancs or screaming down in heavy jugs to *womp* the FHs down. There's really no way to stop them with bombing as simple as it is, so long as they are either willing to die or climb over 20k to kill FHs/CVs"

  This is such total BS.  It's amazing how he continualy tells BS lies about the planes that are flown and such.  First it was 15K, now we're up to 25 and 35K...lol...keep going zazen, we'll soon be 50K....


"It's simply that the toolshedders can and do quite often completely prevent us from playing the game we enjoy and having fun. What makes this worse is a sizable portion only toolshed specifically for the intent purpose of preventing furballers from furballing, Fightertown killers are a prime example, but they manifest themselves on every map"

  It's simply that the furballers are nothing but a waste of bandwidth, they contribute nothing to the intent of the overall game in the MA.  Their numbers distract from strategic planning, and they can not be counted on for team play.  Instead they prefer to use revisionism ideas of how "their" personal fun needs to be accomodated in an arena that is clearly not designed for such.  They conveniently ignore the arena(s) that are, citing still more ridiculously ego-centric reasons for not using them and instead prefer to whine vehemontly here in the BBS about it.

They persistently attempt to tell the rest of us how the game should be played and insist on specific tactics or manner of play "they" think is fitting.  They, of course, don't like it when many others don't play that way.  

They are too lazy to fly 5-10 minutes to seek a fight, or to engage in fights anywhere else on the map....evidently having to look at the map to find them is too stressing for them or the particulars are not to their personal liking.  Alternatives for them already exist, as mentioned, but they refuse to use them, and instead prefer to engage in BS in the forums with attempts to denegrate anyone that doesn't play the way they want them to.  They make claims that everyone else is infringing on "their" fun, when in fact it is they who are trying to hijack the arena to fit their personal whims.

They often make ridiculous statements about what actually occurs in the MA concerning aircraft types and numbers and who is doing what.  The truth is every team in the game has toolshedders and hordes and everyone of them "does their thing" everyday.  Apparently the LCA has just been a bit more effective over recent times and this has garnered certain attention by the whiners.  And to be sure, this is nothing new.  This has been happening day-in and day-out since AH first came online.  It's a typical response.  It's interesting how hypocritical they are when a team or group begins to get the best of them.  Since many have switched sides, they are seen daily now providing fighter support to their team's hording.  So much for the "all we want is our little FT"....

Of course, none of them whine about the Bish taking tank town (or attempting to) twice this last week, but of course not, they fly fighters only and could care less about anyone else that is into GVing....why am I not surprised?  So much for their BS "community" spirit....it's all about them only, so don't let them fool you.

FT or TT bases will get taken.  It has happened since the very first day the maps were created.  No one is out to ruin anything for anyone intentionally (no matter how upset you get over it and want to villainize someone).  "Toolshedding" is a viable strategic option considering the manner in which the game was designed.  Taking down FH's or any hangars or any base resources is a tactic used as needed.  Honestly, we'd prefer to take a base intact, but if that isn't viable, then you take down the hangars too.  It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.  

I have never done anyhting intentionally to ruin anything for anyone (no matter how misguided your feelings are).  Some people just have a hard time accepting defeat, on any front.  Some players just can't accept that the game isn't setup to their personal liking.  Some players PM you with insults when you kill them, regardless of the situation, some insult you for shooting them down when they are landing (especially when they are trying to land a lot of kills), etc, etc.   The funny part is, those same people have done the same thing to me and others, so they have nothing to whine about.  Apparently some people take great pride in their score, k/d, rank, etc, etc.  Great, go for it, it's your $$$$ and you have every right to work as hard as you want on that score.  I personally could care less about my score, or rank or any of that, and I will play the game accordingly.

Hub, i disagree. He contributed a LOT. You just dont seem to get what.

Due to behaviour of your squad (im generalising here, even though i realise its certainly not all 32 individuals having the same opinion/thoughts) on this BBS in the past (MOAT; other trolls - dont make me dig up links ;)) its hard to take what ANY of you guys post at face value. Youve proven you cant be trusted at first sight in your posts. You dont like that image? Though luck, because its what youve created.

You want to see yourself as a fun group, thats humorous and doesnt take itself too serious. OK, fine with me, but then live with it when WE dont take you serious (on that regard) either.


And no, you guys still havent convinced me this isnt a troll either.




Edit: and dont take that in a BK-bashing way. I might not agree with some of what you guys say/do, but as you, i dont take this game serious in that way. You do what you want to do and live with its consequences, I do what I do. We get along. - Now youve asked what i think about it, i told you.

And I fully agree on the BKs helping out whenever you ask. Sometimes you dont even have to ask! >>S<< and a big thank you!

lol Zazen you crack me up. I genuinely want to read your posts but keep finding my forehead slamming against the keyboard. Guess you'd call that a quintessential dichotomy ;)

Cant contribute much more except anyone who regularly private messages me after getting shot down to share their feelings on how I'm a lucky/warping/cheating/gangbanging/hording/I was afk/vulching POS shirt lifting homo tends to reflect badly on their squad.

I'm just glad this thread is starting to turn into a "bashing" thread(sorry Zazen but it's nessicary)! Using/involving the BKs and no dirt being stirred just didn't feel right.

All I see is... "they are good but.."

As probly the worst stick and oldest member of the BK's.... We really don't care about "good"..   We look for the fun fights, and no... that isn't the exicietment of climbing for an hour to shoot at some fluffer controlling 3 fluffs with his mouse and a gods view of the world.

some of us help others and go to the DA or whatever and some don't.  I have never gone... even if I had any skills I really don't know what they are or how to teach em... don't really learn except in the MA either... Drex used to try to teach me stuff but it was hopeless.. I only learned by fighting him.  Don't be offended if I don't go into the DA with you...  I am not picking on you nor do I think you are special... plenty of BK's will if you ask tho.   If you want to fight me I am probly the easiest guy in the game to find.   FM2 (how mnany of those do you see?).... never over about 2 or 3 k.

In the arena we call sixes for anyone.... mostly... depends on which of us or what the situation is...  

We probly allready have the best 2 or 3 sticks in the game.   If not... it doesn't matter and if you think you are the best stick you probly will never be a BK anyway... We don't recruit for talent...

We have no rules save one.... if even one BK doesn't want you in then you don't get in.... We don't care about skill.... only that you have the right attitude and gameplay.   That does not mean being a good stick or being obnoxious....  I would vote for the guy who was barely able to hold his own but was allways fighting us at low alt over any guy who had ever "won" the whatever it is called (tour?)

It is fun for us to steal each others kills.

We have allways felt that the toolsheders and little generals ruin the game and are beyond contempt.  griefers and nutjobs.   No fun to be around or to fight.   We exist to avoid them not to fight em.

I don't monitor ch200 so I can't comment on that, in the game no problem. Individuals may send private messages when killed but that should never be considered a trait of any squad. A person that's inclined to do that will do it in whatever squad they are in. The worst that can be said of them as a squad is they tend to be forum bullies - but that's not a big issue, just seems a little childish at times. A good group of pilots that like to have fun.

Opinion of the BKs? Pretty good actually. Always down for a fight & don't toolsheed. Some with a really high skill level... watching the videos, it's like I'm playing a different game or something. Never been cherry picked by one either, so that's a bonus. Nopoop has written some of the funniest stuff I've ever read. I feel his pain with the "wittle guys", having a 1/28th scale warhammer 40k army that people make fun of (to hell with them, I spent hundreds of hours painting & kitbashing my orks, and damnit they look good). Furball & Lazs have both gotten me to shoot coke out of my nose at least once.

I even have a picture of Furball somewhere around here... ahh, here it is...

So, anyway, what do you really think of the BKs?

Schatzi, I respect your opinion, but I disagree that posting "it's a troll. who are you making fun of this time" repeatedly is any sort of a contribution. In the infamous 'BK trollz', I don't think I've even been a part of them.

 I have posted none of these infamous BK trolls, nor did I post in them.  To say that I always troll, and therefore cannot be taken seriously... that doesn't hold water.

If anyone wants to be bothered to confirm that this isn't a troll, look at Ren's posts in the now epicly pointless LCA thread(or Ghosth's remarks in Filth's thread). The whole point of this thread, whether anyone wishes to accept it or not, is that we were identified as the root cause of all that's wrong with the game, from someone who's interaction with us is slim to none. Since I like to consider myself above just saying "your a retard, you suck", I thought I'd post in this fashion, and let the community speak for us.

While I respect that trainers provide a service for the community, attacking squads and identifying people with whom they have no interaction as the fundamental problems in the game is just a load of ****, in my opinion, and using the access both to HTC and to the newer player base to further a personal grudge is anything but respectful, or positive, and serves the community in no manner whatsoever. At that point, it's grown men acting as petulant children, and no one participating in such nonsense is a fit representive for the community's opinion.

Thank you.

Hub- You asked so please don't be upset with my response

Majority of the BK's are good sticks and generally helpful.

But there is a few most notably ones that post in this forum that are arrogant, and close minded to others opinions.  Not to mention if you retort there righteous opinions you will be tag teamed by every one of these extreme BK's.

But there is more upstanding, constructive BK's then not.

I knew it! I've never seen Hub post so many and lenghty posts. Obviously Hub has been forced into sobriety in a 12 step program. I guess we'll have to endure it until he has his inevitable relapse.:D I have to admit to viewing this with a bit of skepticism. We have been duped before. In the event you are serious, I will respond. I have seen several posts by some BK's that came off arrogant and somewhat condesending. I've flown with and against several and never had any problems in game.

Obviously! You guys let me in and I'm the only member Hub has a chance against in a 1v1.


More seriously...I think there have been many enlightened opinions expressed here, particularly those of Lute who made me see us in a new light. I think it is true that we are as a whole over respresented here on the GD forum, the avatards have much to do with that as well. I also think we tend to get painted with a broad brush, where one member may be a bit more...ummmm...abrasive, than the rest, it is that one member's words that get remembered. But since we are very tight-knit there will not be any public distancing, I speak for no other BK and none speak for me.

I've been paying to play these games for over a decade and with very few exceptions always try to give respect to other paying players. I post in the public forums only rarely, over 75% of my posts in the last 6.5 years are in private forums, and when I do post here (O' club is a little different) I try hard to not cross the lines of decorum. The recent comments by a HTC representative that the BKs are the sole source of all that is wrong with the community did touch a nerve with me though.

The BKs are as diverse a group of guys as you can have. There are members who are barely 20 and others who are nearly 60 years old. We have highly (over) educated members, we have techies, we have mechanics, we have police officers and gun-toting whackos, we have real-life pilots (some are becoming instructors and others compete in aerobatic contests)...no names...we have among the best sticks in the game as well as those who are solidly average. The one thing we all share is that we do not take ourselves or the game too seriously, we are here just to have fun, nothing more nothing less. We really are pretty simple (minded) folk.

Ok  I have held off posting about this in fear of another MOAT, but here goes.

When I wanted some private training I wanted to learn from Nomak.
At that particular time he was on a break from ah . I also learned that Levi/Todd might have his email. I gave a PM to levi and got a fast  reply that he would pass on my request. I got my training and all was good.
During a few of my training sessions a couple of BK's would find us and up.
Being only familiar with them through the BBS i was a bit concerned. Would my training be turned into just a beatdown session. Well with them around I got even more input and not one put down.  
That's rite no bravado, no chest thumping  just good input on what i was doing wrong or rite. I have yet to fly with or against all of you. But if you are all about the same as the guys I met in the da   to all Keep doing what you do.:aok

Hub,

I usually don't post much and most of the text on channel 200 I usually ignore for the most part.  I meet all kinds in the MA and I can't say that the BKs are any different than any other squads when it pertains to having a member here and there who may be frustrated or just disrespectful or maybe too sarcastic for others.  People take things too seriously.     I would say if anything has created ill-feelings towards the BKs as a whole would be the Forums.  Don't get me wrong here though.  There are plenty of other people who post on the forums who are no different.  My observation would be that in the past, those without thick-skins are bothered by some of the sarcasm and somewhat disrespectful responses made by some of the BKs in the forums.  Again, those incidents are not isolated to the BKs.  Personally, I think ya got some good sticks in the BKs and I enjoy flying with you and against you.

Hubsonfire asked.  He didn't confine his question to anyone in particular.  I took his question at face value and I responded with concrete examples of why and how I got a bad opinion of BKs in general, fairly or unfairly.  

You asked if Brauno was a shades account.  I responded to your question.

If you think I responded with a "loaded mouth", that is your opinion.

So if you guys aren't trolling and really want to know....

Why do you 'attack' people when they are doing nothing to you-not even talking to you?

Jeff, do you still feel the need to murder certain types of people?

Todd can't take a fried hint with marinara?

Messing with people who aren't bantering back reminds me of junior and highschool..... that's the attitude some of you guys remind me of when you act as such.

Others of you have the maturity to act with decency and respect, and banter when banter is returned.

Hub-I'd say this is a pretty accurate representation of my original post.

Hub asked for everyones two cents and this is what people recieve in response.  If morpheus doesn't appreciate what is being said, he should take it out on Hub for drawing attention to the BK's behavior.  Not those that participate in this thread.

morp is a stuck up little rich kid and we don't like him but he has neat cars and guns so we let him stay.

The only rank in the BK's that is worth a damn is the Public Relations officer rank and it can only be gained through the rigorous BK ranking procedure...

CO.. is the guy that AH makes us use for a front guy... He is normally the least talented guy on the squad.

Having said that....

The Public Relations job would be a lot eaisier if I didn't have to deal with 31 or so egomaniacs who all think they have a sense of humor..  And feel that selfish fun is enough reason to excuse their lazyness

I would like to someday rule with an iron fist like some of the other squads but it is difficult with these ... these... "individuals"...

Can some of you from really strict squads help me out with some sugestions for getting them in line?

from everything I have read, it seems you are possibly refering to Ren & maybe Ghosth? maybe?

because of their own personal views or opinions inparticualy of your squad....
just because they are tagged on these boards with that AH Training corp tag, automatically opens the flood gate for them to be ridiculed because of their own opinions, which have nothing to do with the Training staff's thoughts or HTC's thoughts...

as just about every single Trainer in this game has done in the past, we have always tried to balance the 2 sides, yes we might be a representative "VOLUNTARILY " of Aces High, but each of us are owed and deserve the right to be able to have our own personal opinions or views, and not be attacked as a "Representative of Aces High" , yet be looked at as just another player of the game who spews forth our own 2 cents of opinions, like everyone else on these boards.

is one reason, I posted earlier, my view of 99% of your squad is great, no quams.  I also posted past times there have been words, yet thats life......

just because 1 or 2 people say something or post their own personal view, does not mean that is what we teach, or impose on the people new to the game.

also, I posted something like it was a FEUD, seriously though, I don't know if it is or not,  everyone one has the right to agree to disagree about things.......

just like your squad, if they see something that they want to express an opinion about, well , they do it, and if someone jumps out at one of your squad members, everyone of you chime in, some more harsh than others. heck, hub, same goes for my squad The Damned, or anyone elses squad...

but as Morph says, what he post/says is his opinion/view / 2cents
well, just look at Ren in that same light, just because he says or thinks something, does not mean the squad he flys in thinks that way, and it does not mean that the Training staff of AH thinks that way or teaches players/tells players in training that that is how it is..........

this is merely 1 person( or 2, you said the 2 people) and the way they incvision the view of it all, with Lute's post, I see where it can be plausable in an indirect way on some parts........

but seriously, don't worry bout what others think, have fun, play your game, blow it all off...............life's to short to live in caution, life's to long not to live at all ---> Van Zant

WOW ... now if you were to convey this same message to Ren and he were to absorb it ... then you would have accomplished something. Maybe you should post your same thoughts, after quoting Ren, in the same thread that Ren tried to trash our whole squad.

Ren has tagged all of the BKs as the core problem of what is wrong with the community and the current state of AH-MA. Rather than single out who he has PERSONAL a problem with, he chooses to paint the whole squad with one brush. That is pretty much along the same lines as the Training crowd being painted with a broad brush too ... doesn't taste right ... does it ?

my answer would be the same as your's Slap, no it doesn't taste right for either/any of us......

but as for me conveying my thoughts, Ren already knows my thoughts, and they are slightly different than his, he can stand on his on 2 feet, just like Morph can stand on his on 2 feet........and Morph, I am sure you know this is not an attack on you, I just using you as my example as how people should inturpet others when they post something, look at the individual, not who the individual teams with or what squad or group they represent....

thats it from me on this subject, I don't want to waste my short amount of time this weekend punching keys on this keyboard, I 'd rather be flying in-game

If ren wants to hate morph, and vice versa, fine, but leave us out of this retarded little spat from 2 years ago. Trying to perpetuate it, or retaliate against us for some perceived slight, is not going to do anything positive, at all, for anyone. Trying to turn this into a squad vs squad, or squad vs trainers, would only be worse.

ok, this is my last post :)

I don't truely know if anyone hates anyone, or if the 2 you post have a hate issue, I agree it would be better for all to be left out of any dispute except for the ones involved . I too do not and also do not think this is a squad vs squad issue or 1 group vs another group issue.........

I just expressing my babbling 2 cents worth  lol 10fold, like everyone else. just replying to what I have seen posted here in this particular thread, and I have not even read the thread that I think spawned this thread........

 I'm logging in , KOTH starts in less than an hour :D

The only rank in the BK's that is worth a damn is the Public Relations officer rank and it can only be gained through the rigorous BK ranking procedure...

CO.. is the guy that AH makes us use for a front guy... He is normally the least talented guy on the squad.

Having said that....

The Public Relations job would be a lot eaisier if I didn't have to deal with 31 or so egomaniacs who all think they have a sense of humor..  And feel that selfish fun is enough reason to excuse their lazyness

I would like to someday rule with an iron fist like some of the other squads but it is difficult with these ... these... "individuals"...

Can some of you from really strict squads help me out with some sugestions for getting them in line?

Rgr TC, it was always my impression that HT appointed people to be trainers and that you had to become one, you didn't just say you were one.

As far as Ren reflecting badly on the rest of the trainers, I just expected you guys as trainers held at a higher standard because you are trainers and because people will come to you to learn about the game.  The rest of us are just a bunch of dweeb aholes.:D :aok

Also, I don't think all the trainers share the opinions of REN.  Remeber we have Morph so we understand there are aholes in every group.  :D  :rotf  LOLHROTFFPAOMS

Well, wasn't going to say anything, but -

Despite the high sounding ethics they potray, certain members display the same traits that they allegedly frown upon.

So IMO they are no better or no worse than the usual 'run of the mill' squad in the MA (talking attitude here only, nothing else).

You asked, there it is, if the cap fits, wear it.

I love the and admire the blue knights..they are the best squad in here by far!!! if i wasn't a BoP, i would hope i could be a blue kinght...they have structure i'm looking for....even a PUBIC relations officer!!!!

another good thing about the blue knights is that they are all obviously independently wealthy!!!  my personal theory is that they are all top movie stars and play here to break up the monotony between "Takes".

you might ask...Falc..why do you think they are rich movie stars???  look at the number of posts each of them have and when they are posted!!!  obviously they are either unemployed or on disability OR independently wealthy movie stars...i personally favor the latter...

and for you haters out there...who think all they do is troll the bulletin boards hoping to annoy someone who cares about the game...you are so full of it.  all they want is the game to be played exactly like they want it to be played.  so you selfish buff and capture types should shutup and learn something...jeez try stop being selfish and learn something from guys who think they are better then you!  Do you HATERS really think you are too smart to learn?

And for you folks who think the blue knights are "burned out" and never fly in the MA half as much as they spend time in here....you are sooooo wrong.  I have seen at least one show up per night...dont bother checking the roster...just watch ch 200 to see when they show up.

So to all the BLUE Knight Haters...screw you.  stop being jealous and grow up.

There ya go Hub!!! big :aok

one more thing to add.... (sigh)

I've got a CM tag on my name (insert trainer etc tag) so I DO represent HTC in a way, and I do have to adjust what I say and do in the game and on the BBS.

Trust me, w/o the CM tag, I would constantly be moderated in the MA and here on the BBS.  I'm somewhat... how you say.... outspoken and I love a good fight, verbal or otherwise.

But alas, I have that CM tag, so I refrain from saying 'bout 90% of what I WANT to, due to how it might reflect on HTC.  I can't count how many posts I have typed, and thought better of it and just not posted.  Heck, I do that constantly.

Also understand that the trainers and CM's are volunteers.  We don't get paid, and do what we do to try to give back to the community.  You might not like what Ren said, but you have to afford him some measure of respect, as he gives his time freely to help better this game/community.  The day you step up and give your time to help out, you have earned the right to be critical of 'em.  Until then, maybe cut 'em some slack.  What he does is most the time a thankless task.  

It's not easy, and there are weeks it seems I spend more time working on special events that I do flying for fun.  Heck, this week alone I spent over 15 hours helping out with two SnapShots, a KOTH, and the Sat. Scenario.  Let alone all the behind the scene stuff I constantly have to do.  (prob. closer to 20hours this week come to think of it)  I've got 8 hours logged in the MA this tour so far.

all Trainers and CM's, past, present, and future.  Y'all are a big part of what makes this game special.

So, anyway, what do you really think of the BKs?

Amen.

Until you've walked a mile ... or even a weekend ... in a CM's or trainers shoes you have zero room to throw stones. The drain on one's personal time is immense and by the end of a long scenario you often feel like throwing half the people in AH into a wood-chipper, feet first.

I'm probably the only one of the bloodline who can get away with still being a total flaming a-hole, partly because I was the first of both. I guess that's kind like being the first vampire.

Yeah I respect you guys for taking the time to train the newbs, but I have no respect for people who have acted as REN has.  No one disrespected REN.  REN came out of his corner swinging and hasn't stopped.  To blame a whole squad for the ills of this game is irresponsible and rentarded.

I don't have a problem with any other Trainers/CM staffers.   Keep up the good work .

Ok, I didn't read the whole thread, just the beginning, so maybe now it's a bit late to go back on topic, but, after all, as top hijacker of BBS, I can hijack even a derailed thread.

You guys want to know what I think about BK?

Well, one of you (namely the dweeb who wrote the post just above this one) picked me in H2H when I was just a noobish fighter pilot and had the patience and kindness to teach me what fighting in this game really means.... and I didn't even have to ask!

Other guys from BK were always really kind and helpful, whenever I met them. Wadke, Stang, Superdud, Leviathn, Jaxxo, Morpheus, to name the ones I met more, have always been nice...

On BBS you may be (or seem) rude sometimes, but, as Hub said, you often have to be on the defensive, mostly, perhaps, because people don't understand what you think about AH (it's just a game!), or they just envy you... at the beginning, reading you posts, I thought you were a group of braggarts, full of themselves, but I quickly realize it was all made in good humour (well, at least when you don't - have to ? - start a war), and I became a "fanboi". :D

Maybe it's just because we share the same passion for A2A combat and similar sense of humor, but I can say just one thing:

I love you Gays!

Actually, the thread's not a goof, nor is it an attempt for a "world's longest BK thread". However, I suppose if folks with nothing to contribute keep trying to say it's a troll, it might very well lose it's focus, and the honest, open discussion we've enjoyed will turn into another halfwitted flamefest like so many other threads...

Hub IMO you guys are great, I really like flying with and against you guys. Lots of fun on ch. 200 and I have even learned a few things from some of your squaddies in the DA. Everytime I go up against 1 of your guys I always get to see a new maneuver or something cool I haven't seen before so I always enjoy it. Not sure why anyone would even say bad things about ya'll, most likely a blown out of proportion bbs thread or something... P.S. Morph makes funny and cool videos too so that's a plus :)

Seriously, if you've been reading some of the other threads lately, where more personal pursefighting is carrying over from one thread to another, and the same propaganda and mindless prattling is posted, regardless of the topic of discussion... we're very much the lesser of evils.

We may be somewhat opinionated, at first glance, but we're all about respecting other people's views and ideas. Was it Voltair who said something to the effect of "I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to my death your right to say it"?

In a way, that's us in a nutshell.

Well, if you are talking about national teams why bother mentioning Arsenal in that post?

Arsenal are a club team, and as we all know the majority of the top club teams are better than the top national teams.  Especially sub standard national teams like Greece.

Nah, your team are past it so its not a freak result.  Average age of about 30+?  Arsenal's is about 22.  All of Juve's team will retire soon and they will be relegated. :p

I believe your national coach Marcello Lippi said it best: -

"The most beautiful thing in the Champions League this season has been Arsenal.  Their growth has been incredible. They have done something which in Italy we could never allow ourselves to do.  They have invested in youth and they are being rewarded".

And it was derby day

Out in San Pablo bay
Taco flavored Doritos
And my orange life vest
Dad caught a hundred pound sturgeon
On twenty-pound test
Now he fought that fish for an hour
And a half
Darrell'd say "Jump ya sons a *****!"
And he grabbed for the gaff
When we got him in the boat
He measured six feet long
I was so danged impressed I had
To write a song called

You couldn't be more correct.  Please fell free to take Recon or any of us to the DA, god knows we all need the help.  :aok  Next time your on can you take me into the DA and help me get better?

Actually, I'd been listening to an old Primus album, and shortly afterwards read MrShadesandletters post, and it occured to me that someone had to start a new account after getting banned or humiliated, and was trying to troll in my otherwise very serious and productive thread.

I, of course, have only the utmost respect, and hold in the highest regards, my geeky brothers and sisters in the AH community.

While I love a good troll, I prefer a nice boat, a cold beer, and a warm summer day for such activities.

That was kinda my beef with Recon. He didn't fight. He shamefully ran from a 1-on-1, and that’s why I’m rather disappointed considering your reputation as a squad.

Zrstorer, not to be picky and hung up on it, but...

he "ran" once, from a 1 vs 1 and you take that as a reason to say "all the BKs are running wussies"? Whoa, quite a leap IMHO. Maybe he was bingo ammo? Maybe he had to leave and wanted to RTB? Maybe he just didnt feel like fighting your plane type with his? Maybe his fuel was on fumes already?..... so many reasons out there....... and maybe he was running scared. But that doesnt neccessarily mean he does never engage a 1 vs 1 whatever odds, and i dont think it says anything about the BKs as a whole.


Just my 2ct.

Post by: uvwpvW on April 24, 2006, 03:39:16 PM
Naw Schatzi, he was heading for one of our airfields and I intercepted him. Perhaps you're right about him not wanting to fight my plane, but then the question beckons: Why wouldn’t he fight a 1941 model 109 in his uber Spit16?

My philosophy on that: Hey, if you dont want to fight me and prefer to fly somewhere else - your loss. Ill move on to merrier targets.

Explain how a Spit16 that wants to run away from a Franz gets killed by said Franz?

What I am assuming (correct me if I am wrong, film would help) is that from your perspective he tried to get away from your 109F and other members of your team caught him and turned him so you could get the kill. In that case I contend it was not you he was trying to escape from but the crowd of red icons. An average pile-it in a 16 should be able to beat a superior stick in a 109F ('45 vs '41 as you said) in a even-up 1v1, but those very seldom happen in the MA these days, the horde from either side always seems to show up and spoil it.

I've had some good duels with the BK's and will go with any of them to the DA.
For the most part I consider them to be of far greater skill than myself and always welcome the oppurtunity to duel them.If I get lucky I can shot one of them down.

I almost am always filming my fights against them,and sometimes I'll sit in the dark curled up in the fetal position watching old filmss of our engagements,hopeing some day to be as good as they are:D

I stopped sacrificing goats to the AH Gods because ,well the price of goats went up and besides they just taste to good to waste on a scarificial alter.

Here's my idea on that...GET A LIFE. MUAHAHAHAHAHA. You really do get low doncha! MAUAHAHAHAHAHA!

Almost 40% of all responses on this thread aer from the BK's. Hmmmm, what does that tell anyone? If they really wanted an answer they'd tell you what it should be! Read my lips....GET A LIFE!!!
Mars. I hate to say it but you show your true colors by posting this thread in an effort to garner support.

I've been flyin these sims for a lot of years and I've never seen such a great bunch as you guys.

I have no fight with Morp and there is no feud between us. He lost his dumb arguement and point of view 2 years ago but wasn't smart enough to know it. Because someone makes and point an doesn't respond to the rest of the others ranting doesn't mean the ranter won!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (Opps, take a hint from that last statment, Mars :)).

IMHO your idea of a squad is a huge joke to me and anyone who ever said anything might possibly be wrong with anyone in it has always been subject of ridicule from your whole group. My issue has never been with loyalty amoungst group members but you guys don't even understand when yer wrong. Then you stand up and attack anyone who says different. As long as you continue to do that and as noted by this post you began you may think your colorful but only to a select few.

So enjoy yourself in all your false glory!!!!

I was responding to a thread.  A guy asked how he could do better upping from a capped field, because that is all AH is getting to be and your advice, not gospel, was don't do it.  Yeah good advice.  I responded with, do it.  Get a decent turner and kill some of those skilless dweebs vulching and enjoy the challenge.

I even put a on my response to you because I knew you would try to make some BS out of it.  Well, I was right you started your true stoopidity and here you are continuing it into this thread.  Yeah I am the one that needs the life hahahahaha  Your projecting again Rentard :aok

Nothing really personal here, but seriously, I should think that HTC would be concerned that their trainers treat any of the customers like this... Even if they are BK.  I dunno, maybe there is something subtle I missed?

The post seemed rather shameless, pointless and immature..

No way, Schatzi, that's in the Free Loader Forums. Nothing of, from, or by the leeches counts for anything. That was a bunch of toddlers spamming a thread. This is about grown men who hate other grown men because of cartoon airplanes.

As you can see, this is much more serious.

What a wacky thread.

I think that closed recruiting is lame.

Are you guys mostly Brits?

Your-op-peans are NOT allowed in the squad ... we made an exception with Furball cause he cried real hard and stomped his feet till they bled (and Furby's mom paid off Lazs).
