Title: Knights Please take notice
Post by: Max on October 22, 2004, 09:57:48 PM
After 5 minutes of wrangling a high 38 down to the deck, taking bits & pieces of his fuselage, my oil tank smokin...I finally have a good angle on the guy and am d800 out and closing fast when a fellow Knight comes screaming in & flies through my burst just as I open up. Now I'm PW'd and my newfound wingie, having missed HIS shot, trapeses away. By the time I can regain my SA, the 38 pops me with a beam shot and POW!

Perhaps some of the new players don't know about KiLLSHOOTER...perhaps some of the old players have forgotten. Point is, you hit a friendly and YOU take the damage. If you see a friendly in trouble; lend a hand. If you see a friendly breathing down someone's neck...SAY SOMETHING BEFORE JUMPING IN.

Thanks,

LOL, don't that just suck? Better yet is when they ignore the enemy above and behind both of you, miss the one you were shooting, and let the other one get you.

Sounds like too many cowboys and not enought indians in knight land. Comon over to rook land. Try being that one con the 6 knights are fighting over.

Good post Max
Common courtesy is not in fashion at the moment.

They sure did.  A few of us who had been flying Knights went Bish just to fight the Knight horde.

It was sad to see it swing that much.  

I'd suggest the lack of 'courtesy" is a number issue.  When you are in the smaller crowd, folks talk to each other.  

The Bish I've flown with are doing the same things the Knights were doing when the numbers were 2-1 against.  You talk a lot as it's a matter of survival.

And without the horde, you don't have 10 planes chasing 1 guy.

Too bad you follow the horde.   That's the difference between you and me, you FOLLOW.

What the heck are you talking about?  
This is the same stuff you were talking last week.
The JB's left Rooks, I didn't.  
So I left the JB's.
JB's are great guys...I've flown with them for years...But I don't like country changing, so...
As for me...I am a Rook...Always.
