Title: I'm staying...you can't make me leave!
Post by: Guppy35 on October 02, 2006, 02:04:21 AM
Whether that's a good thing, remains to be seen.  But since everyone else is leaving I kinda figured there'd be more room for me.

OK I couldn't help myself.  It's late and I'm goofier then usual, which is going some....:)

I just dont understand why you people that are staying think you need to come here on this BBs and post that your happy and staying.   What did you think,  your threatening to stay will change anything?:rolleyes:

BTW Guppy I though you said last month you were stayin, will you make up your mind and stay already.

I take full blame for this. I was not on when Guppy was to invoke some sort of comical whatnot. I blame Capt Killjoy! Now what did I do with my video of the skeeter dance...

I hope HiTech's paying attention, because pretty soon people are just going to pay $15/month to play this game.  I've heard them talking in the arenas, lots of them don't post here.

Just thought you ought to know.  You can't keep changing things that aren't working well and expect people to leave.

I can say with total honesty that the changes have not affected my time in AH in any way.  You will see every bit as much of me in the MA in October as you did in August.

There's a possibility you might see signifigantly more of me in the future.

I'm only staying because I want to though.  And frankly there is nothing you can do to stop me from staying.

You've gone and taken a perfectly good game and tried to make it a better game.  You've got a lot of nerve doing this without asking me about it first.

Because of this I might never leave....and then you'll be sorry!:furious

well then, i'm gonna stay too, i won't let you get all the attention.  i just hope that HT doesn't mind all of the 38's that have umm, well been misplaced?  i'm not sure he has gotten over the sheep herding either (hence no AH2 sheep), i'm not going to point fingers but we all know who it was:)   here is a clue, he looks like this......:noid

Now Guppy don't just stay in the heat of the moment on the spur of happiness.
Take some time and think this through. Don't be rash and impulsive. Lift yourself above the mindless horde of satiated wanderlustless lemmings. Just because there are reasons to stay doesn't mean you should forget all the good reasons to go. After all, you've left other sims like Air Warrior and honestly, aren't you better off? Would you be enjoying Air Warrior today if you hadn't left?

I don't think so.

I really don't think so.

Now I'm really not leaving.  I had a miserably good time tonite flying with squaddies and other good folks against guys on the other team that were also good folks.

I hate that!  Forcing me to enjoy this game!  Filling it full of good people too.  Some day I tell ya.....some day.......Then you all better watch out!

Bastages!  All of ya!  Making me have fun like this.

Go ahead and stay then! stop your whining, geez. Dont let the arena door hit you in the rear as you come in to play. I wish all those that are staying would just stay, you know, and not make such a big deal about it. Darn drama queens.

Post by: bozon on October 03, 2006, 02:33:05 AM
This is getting silly, I've decided I'm staying too. All my squadies have stayed already and I can't fly alone.

Also I keep finding good fights in the MWA, something must not be done about this. The game is just fun anymore. HTC have ruined a good game by making it better, so I've decided to join the protestors and pay them 15$/month till they stop it and start making sense.

Due to overwhelming peer pressure, the fact that ALL my squaddies are staying, more squaddies are flying, along with some squadies decideding to un-quit ... I'm gonna stay too.

It's gonna be hard staying, but I will endure.

this is just crazy.  I've had it up to here with this.  I flew last night for about an hour and had a couple of fights with Phatom and not one HO, :furious all angles.  If this kinda crap keeps up I'm gonna have to stay even longer.  I dont know what I'm gonna do if Hitech keeps messing this game up and making more fun :mad:

HiTech:  I have not had it up to here with you, CorkyJr!

Dan:  Why do you insist on treating me like an adult?

HiTech:  Because you insist on acting like one! Now you're getting these new arenas.

Dan:  But they are so small! I really like it! Why is it always what I want?

HiTech: Well, do you have any idea how much money this is not going to cost me?

Dan:  I love you!

HiTech:  I know you really mean that.

Dan:  You've never hated me and you never will!

HiTech: You are the most grateful little....

Ok, so almost everything works... the acting like adults might be a bit of a stretch sometimes ;)  Fun fights last night, even if I did rely on the Hispanos

I'm going to do one better...

After a long break...

I'M COMING BACK!!!

(Just as soon as I get the money to fix and/or replace my broken computer)

I'm really looking forward to trying out the new arenas!

Unfortunately this 450MHZ back up computer isn't quite cutting it... it's actually somewhat playable in offline mode, but online... well 2 FPS and a five second freeze everytime someone kicks in VOX doesn't quite cut it!

Hopefully I'll be back up and running by halloween!

Hey HI-TECH... how about opening an ALL NIGHT TIME ARENA for Halloween evening?  That would just... make my day!

Now I'm really stuck.  Another fun night in the Midwar arena.  Even numbers, guys not HOing on every merge, very little land grab and people being respectful to each other.

I'm enjoying myself which leaves me absolutely no choice but to fly again tomorrow night, which means I still have to stay!

You are not being unfair to this paying customer Hitech and I appreciate it!

You missed hell in the LWA tonight where I was (in a P-40E):

HOd on take-off by: an F4u, P-47, HurriIIC and seafire multiple times

Vulched without HO by: an F4U, P-47, Bf-110G, B-17 and Seafire multiple times

Divebombed by: B-17s (Who flew along the runway vulching)

Basically, I never got into the air because they were so terrified by one P-40E...

(And let me say, dont tell me I would do the same, because I dont. I wait until the pilot shows he has speed by maneuvering before I even get close, let alone engage.)

I dissagree, I've gotten vulched multiple times in the EW, and seen guys give me time to get my plane up before engaging in the LW.  I don't think that any one arena is more prone for lamers than the other.

At least that's my experience since the change.

It seems to depend on the day or even week.  Last week I was hugely disappointed in midwar because it seemed to be the same old same old.  But the last two nights it's been everything I wanted it to be.

Latewar seems to remain the same flavor as the old MA when I've been in there.

Early war last week was the place to be, but this week it seems bad.

Had the day off yesterday and spent some time in EW.  

I think the map that's up is a problem.  The air bases are just too far apart for early war planes.  The effect was to encourage the truck drivers, who fought each other over the truck bases most of the day.

Nevertheless, when I did manage to find aerial fights, they were good ones.  No doubt in my mind that EW has the most fun plane set.

Don't kid yourself by thinking you will NOT see this in the MWA too.  Cruising around in a Typh, looking for the guys trying to hit our bases... ahhh, there's a low formation heading toward the V-base.

Wingover, start my dive... he noses down too.  Pop one with a canopy shot but the next thing I hear are bombs whistling as the B17s are in a 20 degree dive.  Two hangers blow.  I manage one more kill and ack takes the third.

Next the guy comes on 200 asking "Did I get all the hangers?  I know I would have got them all if I hadn't lost a plane" :confused:   He then returns and I'm up in a new Typh.  Same basic results except he lost two planes first, ripped his own wings in his dive with the final plane that time though.  When asked what he thought he was trying to prove, I got the one man lecture about it being a game and you can do what you want in a game blah blah blah.

It wasn't even like anyone was trying to take the base.  Just a tard being a tard I suppose.:huh
