Well, I have been having great fun with it, but apparently the moderators have not.  Muted ten minutes for not changing the subject, lol.  Besides, the MA needs to see the nice side of the rock.  "Why thank you gentlemen for cherrypicking, gangbanging, and vulching the hell out of me".   I feel better already! :aok

Skyrock. I admire anyone who decides to take control of thier spontaneous behavior. But i also have no trouble with "Banter" and neither does the HTC Moderator's. The trouble is when "Banter" becomes personal in nature coupled with down right abusive dialog. It seem many players haven’t a clue where the line is. To me its very easy to see that boundary. For some there is no difference at all. WTG on taking time to commit to action on the BBS. I say Banter Websters: (tease playfully) away...Just watch yer mouth and keep it general in nature and even the moderators will get a laugh from time to time. Its actually easier than one might thing. ~S~! :cool:

It isnt? I dont remember being down right rude unless of course someone starts it. Even then i restrain for a while before i let go. And when i do let go..i am careful not to use Foul launguage...(real or faux).
I will admit that i have called out a few individuals in the past when the get rude and abusive. ;)
Now the BBS is a different animal altogether. While I don’t use in your face language here, I will from time to time make my feelings know in a subtle or not so subtle fashion. :D
Do a search of every thread and reply i have posted. You will see that any rude of abusive behavior i have displayed in the BBS is 99.9% retaliatory i nature.
Other than that.... take yer purse swinging to the MA :D
Karaya...always fun sir. ;)

You are a great pilot, you don't need the edginess evident in more recent 200 chatter.   You can speak with your guns.

this not only is a good option..its basically the only one we have currently. To squelch the 15 jerkoffs on CH 200 so we can enjoy chatting with the rest of the respectable NME from the other 2 countries is a pain in the SIX!
But it is the only option we have for now. Hope to see a Permasquelch command in the near future.

Exactly, there'd be more than a few 'wise guys and gals' in here crying foul and on the defensive within an hour, if all was without rules. In a heartbeat.

Hehe, that's gotta break on of them rules !
Hehe Levi.

That reminds me of a quote Dokgonzo put out there once..


"Love is a word that is constantly heard,
Hate is a word that is not.
Love, I am told, is more precious than gold.
Love, I have read, is hot.
But hate is the verb that to me is superb,
And Love but a drug on the mart.
Any kiddie in school can love like a fool,
But Hating, my boy, is an Art."

-- Ogden Nash

what I don't understand is why some stuff is 'acceptable' while others things seem to bother mods?

sexist statements are common,
as are gay bashing statements,


seems there is zero tollerance for racism, which I agree is a good idea,
.....so why allow people to throw that kind of stuff around?

and if you need a wakeup call on the subject.... look what happened to the chairman of QANTAS...... and remember, black men were legaly able to vote for like 50 years before women's suffrage was 'granted'.

So why is sexism tollerated?

Maybe because HTC doesn't want to have to deal with a LAW suite????

http://www.courttv.com/news/2006/0112/chatroom_suit_ctv.html

It really doesn't matter if HTC couldn't lose in court.

It does matter that it would cost MONEY!  WHAT you gonna pay the court fees?  You gonna pay the lawyers?  I DOUBT that!

You want to pay more to fly AHII?????

Maybe even have HTC decide the HASSLE isn't worth it and close down????

For those that MUST have their KICK at talking trash.......  is it really worth it?

Thinkin HTC is going to decide it IS NOT!  Thinkin those that go to far and cost HTC 1 potential customers may be invited to LEAVE.  Why?  Because 1 customer can and often does lead to 1 or 2 more by word of mouth!  SOOO your $14.95 vs a multiple of 2 or more is gonna get you what?????

What you think HTC will do with your account IF your little "there just words" typed in the buffer cause HTC to have to go to court and pay lawyers allot of money?????

We got all kinds of people coming into AHII NOW!

The ADDS are doing exactly what they were intended to do!

Thinkin HTC probably doesn't have a hugh amount of choice.

Any online game HAS to consider possible legal action now!

It is reality!  YA it bites!!!!! in more ways then one!

Welll, i guess theres just not enough females around to hold up against the male horde :rofl .



No seriously, Air Combat is a 'mans world'. Any female that goes play in that sandbox knows it and deals with it.  And to be honest, i never felt the sexism gets overboard anyways. But then, maybe thats just me.

Both I think.  IMHO anyone in any business MUST consider litigagtion OR they will suffer the probable loss of their business and maybe worse.

The link refers to what is probably an unwinable case.

That doesn't really matter!

You could win EVERY legal battle and still lose your business due to litigation cost!

it depends on who is being racist.  morpheus and others have made many derogatory comments about me and have never been called on it.  stuff like that washes off of me like water on a duck's back though I find it humorous and take it as a sign the person who resorts to it has nothing else to argue with. so there is considerable tolerance for racism depending on who the protagonists are.

i agree with u schatzi, we r women in a man's world, not many of us on here, but i have never gotten to the point that "sexism" on the game is too much to tolerate. i never take anything on here seriously. but us females of AH have to realize that we r invading on male territory and its not all talk of planting flowers and sewing blankets. its to b expected that boyz will b boyz. just my 2 cents

well it was more of a general gripe about biased moding,

shouldn't they try to be consistant? Like storch said..... racism even seems to be tollerated, as long as it's not a comment aginst the 'wrong' group.... I've seen people get kicked for anti-black terms, which makes sense.... but other terms for other groups just don't offend I guess. :huh

Maybe the mod's talk to such people in private but I see pleanty of examples of racial & regional comments, or examples of anti-gay comments or anti-noobie comments...... and even sexist comments.  

Not to meantion anti-'liberal' comments :D

To me, it just seems inconsistant.

The mods really should do something about some of the comments made to women pileits in the game.People are very crude,I can assure you that my dad would've never allowed me to make comments like I some people making to Betty.He!! I see stuff that is plain and simple WRONG and any self respecting man would never say things like that.So hats off to you Betty for tolerating those kind of comments.I personally would be looking for addresses if I seen/heard someone talk/type to my wife in such a manner.Now what men say to each other ,well thats a different story,but we all can be more respectful or decent to eachother even if it is a make believe world.You shoot some people down and you better be grabbing your flak-jacket cause it's coming.Sometimes it's frustration,sometimes it's just banter and ego pushing or ego bursting,but regardless of the reason there are certain barriers that shouldnt be crossed.If the mods dont deal with the person or people then maybe we as players should be more self moderating.Of course I get frustrated like anyone else and go after someone every once in awhile but not on a consistant basis.This game is nothing more than what you or I make it out to be.It can be the most fun part of our day and relaxing or it can be the final nail in our coffin,because of the stress induced stroke we had from getting our arses handed to us on a consistant basis.You always have the option of squelching players as well,but I believe most dont because, we enjoy seeing a good whit mtch or word duel as well as fighting planes.  to everyone who makes this game what it is,and those who require frequent squelching to remind me of how stupid a statement made in public can really look.

i guess i can understand where some would feel this way. i have ran into a few rude ppl on here but for the most part, everyone is awsome. i have a good sence of humor, and i never take anything that is said seriously. there are alot of times that i am so involved in flyin that i don't see alot of what ppl say to me. i just don't see why i should get mad over some of the stuff said, i think i dish it out pretty good myself sometimes....hehe

i really do believe that this is a "mans" world on here, and i am in many ways invading on that territory. no reason to get upset though bout some of the jokes or comments that r made. if someone makes me mad though, i will deffinatly make it b known.

some might look at it like that, but not me. i don't let the small crap get to me. no one should, it is only a game after all. makes no sence to get all worked up and do something that is so crazy as to what u suggested. but thanks for the advice anyways.

what I find comical is that the guys who are making these statements to these ladies have probably never seen them or interacted with them in any way other than the bbs.  much of the stuff I see typed at the ladies that play this game is baffling to me. I can only surmise that these guys just don't have any experience with the fairer sex.  put the joystick down. head over to the boulevard and get some real life experience.  if the person of your fancy has the same type of plumbing you do it's not a girl, no matter what morpheus says.
