Its like a game within the game.  I like to fly just long enough to be accused of cheating at least once.

I live for the day when they'll accuse me of cheating :D

Don't get too annoyed by the socially challenged. It's a game, it's fun. Plenty of good folks around.

The first time I was personally insulted here I even openend a topic about it. It was because I refused to dogfight Niki's and killed them after they had to rtb because they were out of fuel.

If nobody will say it..... I will!
You Hacker, nobody can turn on a dime in a C-47 and chase down a Runstang SloberDonkey. That was so lame to ram me knowing you had a slower connect. Bet you lerned that from Fester!

There... Hope I made your day! :rofl

Salute

No kidding, I keep filming everyday hoping to bag that prize. Not even close yet.

However, I do have enough "U shot my chute" to at least redo the bathroom with.

There was a ch 1 in AW!  The difference was you could either tune to it or one of the other voice or text channels, not both.  In FR at least, most players tuned to their squad channel and only ever tuned to ch 1 to exchange salutes or taunts..... most of the time ch 1 in FR was totally quiet.

In RR, however, ch 1 was heavily used - I know, because I used to have to watch it in my role as Game Assistant!  :D  Keeping up with the level of ch 1 activity was virtually impossible at times in the main RR arenas.  

However, I certainly don't remember seeing anything like the sort of conversations I see now on ch 1.  Yes, taunting went on, but if anyone went too far and started causing disruption in the arena, that's when we would step in and give a warning.  Usually that was all that was needed - at least in my experience.  However, just being a visible presence in the arena was often enough to keep order.  :)

What I did like about AW was the fact players could Page for a Game Assistant if things did get out of hand - even if there was nobody actively on duty at the time, there was nearly always someone else on line playing who would relog to their GA account and respond.

[This was, of course, before EA.com decided we were surplus to requirements :rolleyes: ]    ;)
