Title: Old Macros From Airwwarrior
Post by: DREDIOCK on May 21, 2005, 11:32:52 AM
On reading the AW thread it brought to mind the old macros we used to see there.

I never minded the macros and was always amused at the creativity used in some of them.
Some were simply amusing
Some were classic

"You have just been killed by the Einstein of flight" - Mc^
"You have been Reached"-- Reacher

is a couple that sticks out at the moment

course a few of my Favorites were my very own

"Beware of Ungunned 26's" - /IT\ (me)

"/IT\ KILLS!!! ///oo\\\"

"Dun dun DAH! Another kill for Captain /IT\ and his Amazing YAK"

and the classic always good for a few "ewwwes"

"I want your blood ALL OVER ME!  /IT\ Kills!!!"

What were your favorite Macros? Yours or others.

If you hated macros shaddap and move onto another thread.

Best thing about FR was no macros.  RR was considered the kiddie pool.

"Road Kill" was a favourite used by........

Jeez I have forgotten his name.......... (tip of the tongue etc)



"Howzat" was used by WoD to emphasise a certain Englishness.

and macros were used in FR  as the  examples above........

Way back when the ~U.S.M.C.~ and the MAWs had a great rivalry going on most of mine were MAW related.

"run home and cry to your maw" and the like.

Wish I could remember more.

My favorite was from Grim (USgrim/GrimCO)...

I hated macros, so I'll move on, but I did like Subby's "Arp!" every time she clubbed a seal.

I want to say the "Road Kill" one was Oldmn...but I could be completely wrong about that...it's been a looong time.

The original, from before macros even existed by DeadDuck:

"QUACK!"

I hated macro's, so I created one to make fun of them that was three lines long so it would scroll anything in the text buffer completely off the screen. I dont remember the wording exactly as it was 10+ years ago but it went something like this:

This kill macro was produced by Me,
provided to you by the dweeb I just killed
Thank you, and your welcome

Nobody ever said anything about it, but I'm sure it was annoying. :)

I always loved the kill macros in AW and used them in both FR (where I started as my husband & son - Zeb and Cloud - were there) and in RR (which I 'discovered' after becoming a Game Assistant  :lol)

I think the reason they were not as noticeable in FR was because most of us were tuned to squad vox channels rather than channel 1, and therefore our kill macros only appeared on channel 2.  However, as more people left to come here, I often found I was the only squad-member online so I would keep channel 1 tuned instead.  I started sending my kill macros over channel 1, much to the annoyance of the macro-haters!  :D  The more they complained, the more I enjoyed it - especially when one person created his own macro complaining about macros!  :rofl

The best macros by far though were in the RR arenas where they were an acceptable part of the gameplay.  I hated the attitude of many of the FR players towards RR players, and started playing in RR more often than FR during the last year or so.  OK some of the things were gamey (like landing at an enemy field in a bomber, taxiing into a hangar and having the gunners shoot it down from the inside, or parking a bomber behind the spawn point of an enemy field and shooting them as they spawned) but it was great fun and I'd often be in stitches with laughing so much.

Some of the macros I used over the years were:

Another Foe Felled by Flos!
Killed by a Krait!  Hissssssssss!
Killed by a Hell God(dess)!

:p  :)

I never made a kill macro for myself, bit I did enjoy a lot of them.


The ones I hated were the guys who just typed out "1/2/3/etc"--too self-important, and no imagination.  I made a special point of hunting these individuals.


I miss AW.  I'd still be playing it if I had that opportunity.  AH, as excellent as it is, just isn't the same.

LPN had "Its tuff to soar with eagles when you fly with turkeys", and TRIX had a "pre-kill" macro "Check six! It's TRIX!" Another I  liked was "He's up ! He's down! He's all around Mafia Kill!"

None of mine were "witty" enough to post here  :D

I just never got around to making a macro. I was one of the 1/2/3/ guys. I usually only got to 2. Hmm wonder if it was you that would finish me off before 3?:D  There wasn't a lot of Macros when I played. One I do remember was "You've been Yak'ed" Or something similar? Thats been about 13 years ago for me though ,  I was Yak'ed quite a bit.:)

Same here Ack-Ack. Tell him to get a young one. If she's young and don't know any better maybe he can get back up flying. Athough if he gets a young one maybe he won't want to. :) Hey, for all I know he's still on a Mac and never went over to the dark side....

Nah, matter of fact he was asking about what people like in controllers recently, said he was thinking about flying again.

I used a macro to drop troops. I saw very few macros in FR. Probably one of the reasons I flew FR almost exclusively (I flew RR a couple of times for flybys).

My squadmates and I used simple macros if at all; mine was "nme destroyed".
OTOH, there were many whose macros and squadnames were a bit too much, and were looked down on. As an example..."no need to change yer underwear! You have been shot down by ***** of the Screaming hell avengers!!!  
LOL! There were many waaay overdone macros like that. :D

Yup, chatted with him in the game prolly six months ago--he's still doing the Alaskan bush pilot thing and is as deadly (and grumpy) as ever. Wish we could talk him into AH but we'd hafta buy the computer and fly up there and set it up for him prolly.

Dweeb: You've been whacked by SuperAce of the flying SuperAces!!!!!
