 Im always willing to give a newu the benefit of the doubt. But about the forth time the same guy go,s from my 12 to my 6 in a wink I start to wonder (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

 What the hell, its free, and not intended to be the game. I just wanted to give the guys a new 8 player arena that made some sense. No huge map. just some interesting terrain.

 Whats you point DMF were you the one cheating.

No, I was the one spanking you repeatedly and who was quite obviously the target of your ire.

And the point is... you're mistaken.  No, of course I don't cheat.  That's ridiculous.  If you somehow DIDN'T repeatedly eject me, then don't you think about six straight dumps from your server might indicate a connection problem?

If you WERE ejecting me, for shame.

do you have film of this spanking?

Post by: Dead Man Flying on October 10, 2000, 01:15:00 AM
Alas, no.  Do you?  By-Tor and TheSaint were both there... I'm sure By-Tor would be happy to vouch for me.

If you have film, of course I'd love to see it.  If I'm warping, or there's some sort of connection issue, I need to see what's happening.

If not, then it just sounds like you're whining.  To be honest, your host was one of the best ones I've been to yet... net status showed a very low ping with minimal variance.  I barely saw a warp all night, and certainly no show stoppers.  I wish they could all be that way.

<shrug>

-- Todd/DMF, who still wonders what the "two button warp, if you know what I mean" means

 FWIW you chimed in. I didnt accuse anybody. Hardly any point. When its a new u.

 This didnt just happen tonight. Ive been seeing it for weeks, here and there. If you say it wasnt you. I have no reason to doubt you. Though I dont know why you posted at all.

 At any rate the guy im talking about would vanish every time he saw tracers. Id look back and he was magiclly on my 6.

Then my mistake, and I apologize.  Your ire WAS directed at me tonight in the H2H arena for some reason, and immediately afterwards you posted this here.  I linked the two together.

However, I don't recall having flown against you anytime recently other than tonight.  If it's happening across different users at different times, my guess is that it's just a connection problem.  I've run into my fair share of really, really bad ones.

Never really struck me as intentional, although I have seen a lot of the old floppy fish syndrome when I'm dead 6 on someone.

Webster's New World Dictionary, Third College Addition (p. 713):

ire (ir) noun -- anger; wrath

Knowing is half the battle.  :P

I juststarted h2h. I have been seeing the same thing.

Ive also wondered if the host was dumping me after kills on the host. Could this be a bug?

Also if you make a mistake and try to log in a full arena you need a full restart to play.
Is this a bug?

Whats the 2button thing?

 eye. on the reboot thing. just hit alt, control, delete. than turn off the AH program that is running. You can go back in at that point.

I was in easy's H2H last night, until the mass eject that is.....

Everything looked good to me for the time I was in there...DMF looked solid on the 1 time I did get him.

I saw a couple of micro's here and there on both sides, but nothing major.

Anyway, it was fun until the eject was hit, especially since I had this spit lined up and was ready to put some YAK 20MM's on him...hehe.

Easy, I don't know what was happening to you, but I do know DMF to be an honest and extremely skillful pilot. I'll vouch for his integrity and his skill. He is one of the top guns of 308 Squadron.

Kbman, easymo,

Here is a way to really impress a pretty waitress:

When she takes your order, tell her that you want the Sheepherder's Special...

When she askes you what that is, tell her...

"Sheepherder's Special? That's a glass of goat's milk and a piece of ewe."

If she tells you that they don't serve that there, ask her if they have froglegs. If she says yes, you reply:

"Well, would you mind hopping over there and getting me a glass of water?"
