Post by: oldtard on March 10, 2007, 02:37:10 PM: hi everyone i was just wondering if there are any squads that cater to older people.
I am 42 and really would like to play with some people older than teens.

Post by: Gumbeau on March 10, 2007, 02:45:04 PM: The 475th FG/ 432 SQ (The one that came over from another game) is comprised of middle age and older folks for the most part.

At 39 I'm a youngster in the squad.

475FG.com if you are interested.

I'll bet your CRS ( Can't Remember Sh** )isn't even obvious yet.

Post by: Dichotomy on March 10, 2007, 04:16:14 PM: There are a lot of great squads out there so my recomendation would be look to the personality of how the members act in the arenas and look for people who fit your 'style'. Each squad has it's own 'personality'.

I have to give a shameless plug to the squad that adopted me when I was so noob I didn't know which end of the plane to look out of

The 332n'd Flying Mongrels http://www.332nd.org

Feel free to look us up and, if you like what you see, join us for some squad operations.

Other squads that leap to mind but this list is by no means complete. It only means that I've interacted with people from them and liked what I saw.

In no particular order.

http://68thlightninglancers.com
http://www.theblueknights.com (don't believe EVERYTHING you hear about them ;) )
http://www.jg44nighthawks.com
http://www.479th.com/
http://www.arabian-knights.org

I don't know if they're recruiting or not and if I'm overstepping on this I apologize in advance. But there's good folks in all of the above. I'm sure I left some great ones out and will remember later and feel like a jerk for doing so.

Good luck

42 old? Are you kidding?
I'm 43, and during the last 4 years I have had feeling that only 80 years old dotards around.
Take a look into 200 ch or this board. They have been discussing HO, win-the-war, La-gays, HO, win-the war, La-gays, etc since the time of the Christ.
Marasmus. They can't remind that they have discussed that already few weeks ago, and you are talking about 42 years? You are child to compare!

Post by: Trukk on March 10, 2007, 05:13:27 PM: 42 isn't old! One of the guys in the 550th is 72! Great guy, learned to fly on biplanes (Stearmans I think). Our oldest member is in the low sixties (I forget his exact age, I must be going senile!).

Don't know about the player base, but for the squads that I'm famaliar with, it'd be pretty close.

Post by: Skuzzy on March 10, 2007, 05:49:40 PM: 42 damn well better not be old! Sheesh, I am 52. I dunt even want to know what you think that age is. :D

I bet I have as much, if not more, fun than anyone else in the game. Of course, if you do not agree with me, I can ban you. :lol

Uh, I also have a warped sense of humor. Just FYI.

Seriously. Oldtard, you should not have any troubles finding an age group you can enjoy. But, if you are looking for a mature groupd of guys,..well,..uh...I am sure,..ROFL! Nevermind,...I can't do it! ROFLMBO!!!!

Post by: SteveBailey on March 10, 2007, 09:03:14 PM: oldtard it may seem like you are older than the average guy on channel 200 but that's just because many of us are ... ummm... young for our age(me included)

If you can learn to tell when someone is being sarcastic or jesting/teasing in text(as opposed to speech) then you are going to love this game. In between the blowtards, I mean blowhards, and whiners( I'm guilty sometimes) there's good humor and great banter on 200.

I recommend you skip my squad because we are loaded with scorewhoring,(I love 'em tho) whinetards.

Post by: Schatzi on March 10, 2007, 10:36:22 PM: :rofl

OLDTARD, if youve done nothing but laugh at the replies your thread has .... yielded so far, youll be one happy camper in this game.

One squadron id like to see included in Dichotomys list is 71 Squadron RAF - the squad i grew up in. They are nuts, they are mad, they are great.... they fly fighters mostly, always on Knight team. Youngest member I can recall was 16, oldest somewhere above 70. All ages, all sexes - im not kidding you.

Looking for a squad, whichever one you choose, id recommend flying with them for a few days, to see if your game styles, idea of fun and personalities "click" - the actual invite to the squad should be a formality.

Best of luck,

Schatzi

Post by: Spiked on March 10, 2007, 10:56:11 PM: Yep ... what Schatzi said. You are more than welcome to pop into our vox and fly with us for a few days and get to know us. There are a few younger fellows .. but the large percentage is over 30 with a healthy dose of old farts .. errr elderly .. damn it I mean gramps types. (gonna be scrubbin crappers for that comment).

Vox is 171 & always seems to be a handfull of us on in one of the LW arenas. As Schatiz mentioned we fly knight.

~~oldtard ... hope to see ya up!~~

Post by: Guppy35 on March 10, 2007, 11:44:47 PM: If 42 makes you an oldtard, what does that make all of us that are older then you? :)

Don't even think about asking Silat his age. He makes me look young and I'm 46.
