I'm just curious: I've been told that my thread on Tank Town isn't what this forum is meant to be used for, and Skuzzy closed the thread. What exactly is this forum meant to be used for?

Hey, I'm a blogger. I get all kinds of conversation, so I'm used to the offbeat stuff that happens on internet chat. What's the problem with discussing problems in Tank Town?

I dunno, I've had that photo for years and have been dying to use it somewhere. The "blogger" statement seemed like as good a chance as I'm ever likely to get. =)

There is a distinct difference between a discussion and an insulting rant.

When you figure it out, your threads might not be locked. seems simple enough to me.

How humiliating:

Not only does Skuzzy shut down my thread, I go up this morning for a few quick flights. Get there just minutes before my fellow KNIGHTS take over the last field on TT island.

Whatever.

Dear HiTech,

Please change the nature of the game. I cannot control my desires to irritate and generally p*ss-off the other player in the game. So, could you please change the game to prevent me from doing this so other players will like me more?

Thank you,

DREDger

Masherbum, please tell us all another story about how much you contribute to this game!!!  Tell us more about your 'photographic' memory you posted on my other thread.   Tell us about the 200 people u organized in a truce!!!


Tank town v-bases should be made uncapturable and the spawns to the airfield removed.  That way TT GV guys can have their fun, and win the war capture guys can have theirs in the same map.   Otherwise teams will just continue to take over center island...everyone is doing it :rolleyes:

You know, you keep throwing this solution out there and I'm curious about something.  Why do you propose both things (make the v-bases uncapturavble and removing the spawns to the airfield)?  Removing the spawns to the airfields would solve your imaginary problem of being "back doored" from the v-base after you've taken the airfield.  

So I have to wonder why you insist on making the v-bases uncapturable along with the removing of the spawns.

I can only conclude that even though removing the spawns would stop a threat to the airfields from the v-bases, this is not enough for you because you would still feel the need to take the v-bases.  Only with the spawns removed you have no basis for "needing" to take the v-bases.  So it boils down to you needing to have the v-bases made uncapturable to prevent you from your impluses to take the v-bases.

Sick.

Incorrect conclusion.  If there were no spawn from the vbase to the airfield, the TT vbases could be left alone, they would be isolated from the TT airfields.

If you made the vbase uncapturable, and did not remove the spawn, there would be no point in capturing the airfield, because it could never be held against a back door attack....which would ensue in short order.

Well, that is your opinion.

Well, that is your opinion.

Yes, I am saying if there was no threat to the TT airfields from the vbases, there would be no reason to capture the vbase.

In other words, I don't feel this uncontrollable desire to take the TT vbases in order to cause grief with the GV'ers on all sides.  Under the current map conditions though, if you don't take the vbase you'll end up loosing the airbase in short order.

Yes, but the point I was making is that you keep suggesting that you want BOTH things to happen (remove the spawns and make the v-bases uncapturable).
As I said before, removing the spawns satisfies your desire to remove the threat to the airfields.  Yet you still advocate making the v-bases uncapturable.  
Is that even with the spawns removed, people could drive all the way to airfield and threaten it that concerns you?  If so, man, that's a sad reason.

I think we are on the same page here, let me try again.

Yes I would like the TT vbase spawn to the airfield removed, and the vbase made uncapturable.  That way:

1.  The threat from a M3 or a panzer spawned to the airfield is gone, thereby reducing the threat the Vbase has on the airfield.

2.  No one side can take the 'whack a mole' fun away.


As far as someone driving an M3 from the vbase to the airfield....if they drive it that far, my hopes is they will capture the airfield as reward...

lol, up a lvt and float it across the isles to TT for the capture, now that would be historic.
