Alright, because I enjoy listening to stories and helping people criticise others, I decided to try this. If you've had a bad day, or a bad experience, come here and share. There will be some rules though.
1) Do NOT mention names. Substitute with things like dweeb1 or XXXX
2) Avoid swearing
3) Include the arena, the country, both (or all if applicable) aircraft involved
4) avoid criticizing the whole country. You are here to whine about one instance, dont come in with "ALL BISHOPS SUCK!!!". Save that for country chat...
So, here is my example:
Earlier this month in EWA (Green) I had a depressing incident. I was in a Spitfire mk I and the offender, a moderately well known and respected player (Lets call him dweeb1) was in an A6M2 launching from a carrier. It openend with me at a 2k altitude advantage. He had launched fomr the carrier and was persuing another Knight. (He was a Bishop) I turned twoard the Zero to assist my fellow countryman. The Zero saw me, and turned to engage. By the time we were 1k out we were co-altitude, but he insisted on HOing me. I knew he had cannon, and all I had was 8 .303s, so I decided to ignore the fact that my engine was carboureahted (I know I spelled that wrong) and I nosed down to avoid the HO. He made a diving turn down and to the left, so I followed. I dropped flaps and started to turn inside him. The minute I did he leveled out and ran immidiately to CV ack. I followed him for a few seconds but as soon as I got in ack range I bugged out. Too late, 5 inch got me. I took off again, again in a Spitfire mk I, and the same thing happened. As soon as I got behind him, he ran to the nearest friendly. Again CV ack. I kept a safe distance, but again somehow the 5in. got me from extraordinary range. Finally I refused to even get near this A6M until he was 5k from the CV. He came to get me. Again I got behind him. He ran for the CV, I broke off and gained more altitude. He came back, again I got behind him, he runs right to 3 more zekes. I bug out, but they are faster than me, catch me, and begin dogfighting them. Here comes dweeb1 again slashing through and engageing me only when the other 3 have me beat. One more time, I try to get this zeke, and one more time he only fights when he has a numbers AND position advantage (One isnt enough, he only fights with both). Again, the numbers get my lowly Spitfire mk I. I finally get REALLY pissed off and up a Spitfire IX. Immidiately all zekes run to CV and dont come back until I land. If I was in a SPit IX or even V to begin with, I can understand running, but this guy was afraid of a Spitfire mk I!!! That is just dishonerable behavior.

So there I am hard at work in the TA, watching a seemingly endless stream of dweebs asking " @#$%%$^ How do I fly with a mouse!#$%@^)
Course if the @#$%$@% dweebs would read the sys requirements they'd see they'd need a joystick!
So because you can't exactly take it out on 2 week baby seals I decided to come vent here. Good thread, good idea, hope when the flames fly they scorch all those #@$%%$^ 2 week mouse flying !#@$#@$ dweebs.

heh, this'll be good if it survives for any length of time.

I don't even need to read this thread to know that it's stupid, and should be locked.
The forums would really be a great thing, if only all you mooks and squeakers would quit posting ideas and thoughts that have no merit, and should never have been transmitted in any shape, form, or fashion to begin with. Children should be beaten, or trained and put to work- not heard.
Thank you, that is all.

Now, on another note there isnt anyway shape or form to beat around this rule (Even though this thread is sure to be funny) you pretty much took the rule book and threw it away out the window!
Rule Number 5
"5- Flamebaiting, trolling, or posting to incite or annoy is not allowed."
Hummm flamebaiting, title of thread is The Flame Forum ........
-
The last thing anyone wants in their threads are those bk forum attitudes.
I don't think the forums can really take it.

Hmm...

Um, no because only fat old men like hubs are ranting about things. Come ON! Someone start whining so I have something funny to look at! (Other than hub...)
Sorry hub, you asked for it. Guess what, you met me in person youd never beleive my age. Im sorry for wanting to relax and be somewhat childish (by laughing at others) in a video game. Perhaps Ill just have to find something for 'children' to go act my age at... wait a minute...

Yesterday some numbers guy wanted a gunner for his fighter. Gave me a zomg and then a rolleyes and a chuckle feeling.
I have a lot of fun when teaching new players the hard way. If i see a numbers guy (or any other for that matter) flying around our base shooting at everything that moves, i try to tell him on text to shoot at the red guys and not the green (hopefully RedTop is not close :D ). If they do not seem to get that message i line up perfectly infront of their guns and slow down so they cant miss. :)

People who Ho, then run:furious :mad: :furious :mad: :furious :mad:
(please keep in mind that I'm only a below average pilot)
Had this happen last night. logged on and green team had significant numbers over yellow team and orange team, so I switched to orange team for what I thought would be some good fights......
Man was I wrong (with the exception of the pilot who shot me down , and the p-38 that gave my spit a good fight). Now mind you that was 2 pilots outta an original 6 that were attacking. the others would dive in from a 2-3k alt advantage, try the HO and run off, climb, rinse, repeat.......boring!!!!
Little later on, come across a higher 109 and notice that he's diving on me and we merge. of course he goes for the HO, and I evade, and climb up to the left.
well, lo-and-behold, he goes into an immell, and procedes to try the HO again...:lol . this goes on a few more times, during which I somehow keep tight climbing turns and end up on his 6 at 600 out. Do I shoot, no...I hit WEP and push to close..............
Now...what you think this 109 did next?
Yup, the lil chicken @#$%er ran for home.
I woulda killed for a Tiffy or Lala that time:t

edit: not a rant against bnz'ers. Its against the HO'ing runners
Thank you for your time
edit2: hope that was ok Serenity

This just IN, BEFORE you LOCK your doors at night make sure you are inside your home.

Yeah, my biggest problem is with runners. I can even deal with the ones that turn when I turn away. At least they're trying to learn or use their plane to their advantage to win a fight.
But the little NANCY-BOYS[/i] that up a powerful and fast plane, try to cherry-pick me, then fly for home as soon as I turn the tables, those little girls really make me wonder why they pay $15/mo. They don't even try to turn around when I break off.
Actually, I only wonder that once I calm down. I REALLY, REALLY have to pay attention to what I type on 200 when it occurs. I've already been warned twice about what I type (auto-moderator).

We DO have a fighter which actually can accomodate a gunner: The Bf 110. And guess what? I have been shot down by the 110 tail gunner two times already :D

Yes, how dare they fight on their terms and not yours! They should stick around and let you shoot them, the bastages.

The best part is that you kept comming back... in a silly spitty Mk.1 and co-alt! :huh

It really all boils down to ones choice of tactics.
BnZ is a tactic, turn fighting is a tactic, running to expend is a tactic, even ho is a tactic. Remember the goal is not to die for your country but to make the other SOB die for his, (Patton).
War is not fair, so learn to take the good with the bad and move on.

Everyone tells us that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and that it should be a substantial meal. Yet, some people awaken not feeling hungry and have no desire to wolf down bowls of stodgy cereal and plates of dry toast. For such people, breakfast is more easily skipped until they feel their stomach has "woken up" later in the day. Whatever your reason, the breakfast supporters do have a point - breakfast fuels us for the day.

ok
im IN too.

When I was flying last night, I come in behind DWEEB9 (very well known and respected pilot who was once bitten by a scorpion I was told) and guess what ?
He starts turning right, then left, then up, and then down and all over the place. The next thing ya know, we are in a rolling scissors ... :furious
How the hell am I supposed to shoot this guy down with him flyin all over the friggin' place trying to spoil my guns solution ... the nerve of some people. I finally did get him, but I really had to work for it ... :mad:
If he had any integrity, he would have flown straight and level, allowing me to kill him with ease.
-
Yeah those dweeb tactics suck. Like every time I try to topedo a CV some one has the nerve to shoot me down with that darn 5" gun. Always gats all three of my planes too. GAWD :furious

No, there is no fighting involved.
And yes, I would like them to at least fight! HO me, vulch me, cherrypick me, BnZ, TnB. But to just fly away as soon as someone turns on you is just plain cowardice, made worse by knowing you can up yet another plane if you just happen to get shot down.
Just today, I had an La-7(ENY5) run from my Spit9(ENY20), in which I had only half a wing! HALF A FRIKKIN WING! C'mon! This goes way beyond timidity.
If you're out of ammo, say something! Out of gas? Same thing!

funniest thing that ever happened to me was dogfighting a 110. He switched to his tail gun and opened fire. Bad shot though. He flew straight into a hill! Almost killed myself laughing! :rofl :rofl :lol :rofl

I think everyone should live in harmony and peace. No planes should actually explode. They should all be the same color and size. There should never be a situation where you are frustrated. As like pushing your feet into a short sheeted bed. Don't ask me how I know that.:noid
I love the look on my wife's face, when I look over at her wearing my headphones with a mic dangling in front of my mouth, yelling at the computer,like a sailor,because I'm flying a Pappy Boyington cartoon plane. It is pure magic. Like Disneyland. Only without the fantasy and children. Hey wait a minute...:confused:

Their CV was too close. I was climbing until the very last second. Unfortunately, he was faster. We wouldnt START at co-alt, but he could climb up to it without difficulty.
Oh, and YAY!!! We are starting to see some real posts, AND they are remaining respectful! See? It can be done!
