Alright. I am starting to think squelching isnt enough. I think there should be a way to keep people apart, shut people up, and possibly even PNG for in-game things. I have been stalked recently by a 'lovely' little child by the name of JohnnyJr. he comes on our squad channel, he stalks us ingame, and I (and some of my squad members) are damned tired of it! Its come to the point where the first thing we do when we log on is type .squelch johnnyjr. I have reported him (twice today alone) for both voice and text for harrasing me both ways. Im not whining at HTC to make the mean boy go away, but I think someone should teach this kid a lesson! Today, I decided to pretend I had squelched him, and just take screenshots of his text over the 200, so heres what he said in just one little spasm:
First, he started with the basics: Accusing Gender Difference:

Have you ever shot down Johnnyra? Like father like son I guess. You really should have sent this by e mail to HTC though.

who says I wont? But no, JohnnyRa, when I have been around him, seems very nice, and when he is on, johnnyjr is actually a nice kid, to the point where me and mine can actually tolerate flying with him. But otherwise, his lack of teamwork, planet-sized ego, and insistence that everyone welcome him but no one tell him what to do are completely... well, they can make people homacidal. :D

If I ever MENTION the word 262, or even say any sentance with those numbers in it, its imidiately "THe other day I got 1,250 kills in a 262!" or "I shot down HiTech TWICE when he was in a 262 and I was in a Spit I!" Or "Ive shot down 3,000,000,000,000 262s!!!"

So what happens if JohnnyJr. shoots down JohnnyRa, or vice versa?
...
Foreman vs Ali?
Leonard vs Hearns?
Man, that'd be a show worthy of watching.

Apparently JJr gets lots of perks cos he's flying P40b's against his dad's mighty LA7, or so the stats say......

turn 200 off. i keep mine off and i fly in a dreamlike serenity.
sometimes i find myself within range vox of a bunch of squeakers. usually you find them all flying together. if it gets too bad, i just up at a base from the other side of the map. you cant really blame them for their voices though
you were vague about how johnnyjr hassles your squad, getting on your squad vox, etc. i could potentially see this as a real problem.
but otherwise, just be glad that this community is generally filled with more mature gamers, to the point where you can call someone out by name (as in this thread) and it will be the exception, rather than the rule.

Im on 200 because I like to converse with others. And he normally flies Knights, and you cannot tune off country. But in this situation today, he tuned his VOX directly to me, and made verbal the same comments he typed in.
As to how he harrases us, he comes on our channel, refuses to leave, refuses to be quiet, orders myself and my squads around (To which the normal reply is "Johnny, you are not even in our squad, so I would kindly advise you to shut up!") he follows us on missions, only to go lone ranger, blow our cover, and generaly screw us up. While I understand people do these things, they normally only do one or two. This kid does them ALL!!! Oh, and yeah tinman, Ra gives his kid points. I have even been 'Invited' to "Come join me on the rooks, and let my son shoot you down, we are trying to get him points and bring his rank up" on one occasion.

JohnnyJR is cannon fodder. Hes also a kid who hasn't begun to grow up yet. Just ignore em.

again, kinda hard when he is squeaking in your ear. And by the way HTC, squelch hasnt been working lately, I can still hear him :(

while i appreciate the need to discuss the subject..
i think that it is just as immature to post names on the BBS with game complaints that would be best delivered to HTC in private.
-
Werd 88.
Funny you can't handle a little kid and have to come to the BBS whining about it though.
Go Johnny Go!
:lol

he never learnt to read or write so well, but he could fly a P40 just like a ringin a bell GO GO.......GO johnny GO GO GO....GO johnny GO GO GO....GO johnny GO GO GO....johnny be good.

I disagree JB88 with your first phrase and agree with your second. It is not "as immature" at all. The difference is so great that it is almost a difference in kind and not in number.
This problem should no exist, but it does. I don't tune to 200, and on range curse words abound at times. I click the report button and say something that I hope is in line. Bad behavior, in a game for all places, is without excuse.

I am more worried by the standard of spelling in those screen shots.

You mean his "jeans", he always was fulla C***. biggest idiot in game right after his dad. :furious
I dont miss people like that :aok

Reynolds, such things do NOT belong on the BBS, no matter what. By posting it here youre lowering yourself to his level.
Film the abuse, take screenshots, send them in the Skuzzy. He will take care of it.

We have the same problem with him on our squad channel, the kid has absolutely no manners and is very rude. We ask him time after time to please leave squad channel.

I just think HTC should consider, I dont know, banning them for a day or something, in an effort to stop behavior like this. I know I am only a teenager, but even I stop somewhere.
Reynolds,
You should have sent this to HTC.
And, yes, they do something about it. JohnnyJr's dad used to be Faaaaar worse than what you're seeing in the kid -- until he had a chat ban for a MONTH. He's been as docile as a just-weaned hamster ever since.
(Well, there are a few exceptions, but he calms down fast...showing that the issue was never one of self control, just one of class.)
-
I jumped in to save him yesterday when he was shot up in his 262 against two cons. Once i had downed the first he started trash talking and saying how the only reason I killed him was because they were only after him and didn't care about me (Despite being tangled with both of them while he flew overhead at 10k).
I turned tail and let him get shot down :)

The unwritten rules of Aces High
As with many games, over time some
unwritten rules establish them selves as
generally accepted behavior. These rules
are not cast in concrete but are a good
guideline on how one conducts himself.
Some rules take into account "real" life happenings while playing the game
while others are pretty much accepted by the population of online players for
ingame issues.
First are the accepted unwritten rules for real life issues:
1. When nature calls, announcing on Channel One "Pee Break" and ones
location is accepted as a "timeout". Time may vary but that pilot is
considered offlimits for that time period.
2. When the beer is empty, announcing on Channel One "Beers Empty"
results in the same timeout with the additional requirement of grabbing
beer for anyone that want's it.
3. Wife ack. No explanation is necessary. No time limit is imposed.
4. Pet interference: dependent on the nature of intrusion and resultant outcome as it effects participation.
Accepted unwritten rules for ingame issues:
1. In a base vultching situation the first to call "dibs" goes to the front of the
line. When mulitple pilots call dibs at the same time, a coin flip will decide
who is first. Taking cuts is frowned upon.
2. Wiping the goo from ones air screen is an official timeout if it has been
announced on Channel One. Time may vary dependent on the amount of
goo present. Multiple kills=more goo. evaluated on a per kill basis.
3.Anyone that bails and opens his chute above 600 feet AGL shall be shot in their chute. The resultant whining on Channel One will be replied with the comment "Your Momma"
4. Political discussions, whining about getting killed, ANYTHING in CAPS
on Channel One shall result in the offender becoming a labeled "tard" and
shall be shunned by those present.
5. The talking of "smack" is reviewed on a case by case basis. Good smack
is a pleasure to read. Badly written smack reflects on the poster more than the recipient. So good sentence structure and a clear thought processes are required so as not to percieved as a "tard". Talking good
smack is akin to walking a mine field. The liabilities out way the benifits.
Unwritten rules really are a way of life. They are not hard and fast rules, but rules that have been accepted over time. Think of it as a step up into the world of Aces High. Now go out and have some fun !!

I always enjoy screeching right back at the offending person. Next time ol jonnyjr is on. Just hit him up on vox 1st and sqeek louder. Works everytime and is loads of fun:aok

"We have the same problem with him on our squad channel, the kid has absolutely no manners and is very rude. We ask him time after time to please leave squad channel."
Why not just give him the boot and make him find another squad? There's an old adage that you're judged by the company you keep.
-
Hitech should make people register the squad channels and when you log on you must type in password to access the squad channel just like teamspeak or xfire. Then unless someone gave him the password your problem is solved except for local range.:furious

Westy, I think JohnnyJr's jumped on the numbered channel these guys use as their squad channel, not the "4-squad" channel. Don't think he's in either squad.
-
Ditto what JB88 and Schatzi said.
Reynolds you also have the option of reporting text and verbal chat abuse by way of the roster.
-
Roster, find their name, right click, report chat, report voice.
Takes a number of people to cause it to take effect. But if enough people have problems with the same person he will take a major time out.
Can still fly, but won't be talking for quite a while. This system works, just need more players who are willing to use it, but not abuse it.

Just have to chime in here before it closes. I always squelch the moment I hear that lazy.."Hoooowws it goin". The kid jumps in front of ya all the time to steal kills as well. Normally don't talk poorly of folks on the forums, but he's earned it.
