With all due respect sir, this sounds like just another "if you aren't doing it my way, you aren't doing it right" post.
It's a game; a game you pay to play. Play it however you wish.

excellent troll looks like you have lunch about covered

While I have no problem with people doing whatever they like to do, since it is their $15, I have always wondered why people pay $15/mo to play against very basic, simplistic AI when they can do the same thing in AH offline for free.
It's a puzzle, but I sure don't lose any sleep over it. HT must laugh his axe off over this stuff.

Those with liver problems should not take Milk-Factor. A simple blood test will show your doctor if Milk-Factor is right for you. Do not use Milk-Factor if you are nursing, or pregnant. Side effects vary, including drowziness, dry mouth, internal bleeding, mutant second head growth, ebola, and hives.
Dont take Milk-Factor without your doctor's consent. For more information on Milk-Factor, contact Willy Winn, POB 1,ScoHo Washington 05150

I think those players taking bases are waiting to get the message "YOU HAVE WON THE WAR". Sounds to me like Toad wants all players to play the game his/her way.
Who wants bet TOAD objects to Ground Vehicles in this game?

Hehehehe, now that's funny right there. Well thought out.
To those that think it's a whine of some sort, get a sense of humor for Christ's sake.

I think what TOAD was pointing out was why pay to play a game doing stuff that you can do for free?
Milkrunners (which this post was about in the begining) have a tendancy to run away at the first sign of resistance. Milk runners don't look for, nor do they work for that "You have won the war" signal. They only run around gathering points for knocking down undefended towns and bases. Also, milkrunners are NOT only in GV's, they have been known to use the JU with the big bomb, you can really bring your hit percentage up with a couple runs with that !
xBishsquaddie, you have got to stop taking everything so personal !

I also think why have rank if it is do utterly meaningless.

In the spirit it was written I found it to be pretty funny..........

If you get an erection lasting more than 4 hours while taking Milk-Factor, seek medical attention at once.

I wasn't going to chime in but man, some of you guys have to get a sense of humor.
Haven't you seen that late night ad for this over the counter pill called Focus Factor? I've seen it so much I can, and almost did, recite it verbatim (with an AH twist).
Far from any kind of whine, I was laughing the whole time I typed it.
BTW, I play in EW and MW at least a couple nights each camp and while I often find good fights there, this came to me after reading SHawks post regarding needed changes and a lot of posting players feelings (including mine) that EW/MW and LW scores should be seperated, so there IS a grain of truth in my "joke ad".

Interesting. WW-2 had hundreds if not thousands of -even escorted- bomberruns on German factories, shipyards etc. Numberous brave people lost their lives with it. Those bomberruns where a significant strategic part of the allied forces strats. Would you dare to qualify WW-2 Lanc-riders as milkrunners?
Seems to me that Aces High -as a WW-2 sim- comes as close possible to the historical reality. Including the bomberbuns on factories.
So, whats the issue here...............

AH is not a ww2 sim, it is a combat sim using ww2 equipment.
yes, there were many brave people who fought in ww2, i don't think that is disputed at all. however, these brave pilots didn't have it so easy as some milk runners have it....waltz to target, drop ord, turn around at your leisure, drop more ord, rtb, no resistance, rinse repeat. though someone should up and attack them.
point is that it is a game, and you could do the exact same thing offline, and not have to pay $15/month. So basically people who do this are paying $15/month for the recognition that they score well in game, and maybe a noob or to will look up to them. kinda sad, they could just pay me $15/mo, and i will put up a web site telling the WWW how great the customer is, but sadly no takers yet.
that said, who cares it's a game, and if you can't have fun playing, then what is the point. if you want to milk run stuff in isolated areas of low numbered arena's, and think you are in some way honoring those who sacrificied everthing for their real country, go ahead, its your $15. honor through path of least resistance, woot!:huh

First, it's not WW2, it's not a WW2 simulation. It's a game.
When you accept that, the issue should become more clear.

Too funny.
So when you and those like you milk the empty EW arena and get that oh-so-exiciting "YOU HAVE WON THE WAR" message is it as thrilling as winning a game of solitaire? As exciting as beating yourself in a game of checkers?
Because in essence, that's what you are doing. The incredibly funny part is that you PAY to play against no opposition. You could do the same thing offline for..........nothing.
It occurs to me that Pluck apparently has a million dollar idea that could cross all game genres.
I should get involved with ownership of some online game that charges $15 a month and allows players to read some little "YOU HAVE WON!!!" message about every 2 hours of play. The challenges should be simple, requiring little mastery of mouse and keyboard and it shouldn't take much thinking to play. If there's that many of you guys out there, I'd be rich in short order.
"YOU HAVE WON! YOU ARE THE BESTEST IN TEH WURLD!11!!!!" (Your credit card will now be billed $1. Press ENTER to continue playing)

Ok Pluck, so lets REVERSE what you say. "Honor through path of GREATEST resistance?" Wtf?
Again, I think you are one of those players that never GV's...never resupplies bases, never runs troops?
You may want to look into Microsoft Simulator and ACM to your heart's content.
This is a team oriented game with a final goal of "winning the war". Until HTC removes the "YOU HAVE WON THE WAR" concept, get use to sneaky base taking.

No one disputes the bravery or lives lost during WWII or any other war on either side. I've never been in the military but if you ask me those who put their lives on the line to defend their nations should be held in the highest regard.
That said this is not a war. It's a game. Your life isn't on the line.
You obviously don't understand the term milk-running. Milk-running, simply defined, is any act designed to improve your score/rank while facing zero opposition. Those brave gentlemen you mentioned above certainly faced opposition and if you fly a mission in-game into defended enemy territory then it's not a milk-run.
Aces High is not a WWII sim. It leaves much to be desired if that were true; no historical maps, same country planes/vehicles opposing each other, no ground troops... you get the idea. Aces High is a WWII based combat flight sim that happens to include other aspects (i.e. GV's, CV's, etc.) to enhance gameplay.
So, the point is, relative to your comments there is no issue and as I stated above it was all meant to be a joke to begin with. Hey, I milk-run occasionally. It's relaxing.

Some play the game to fulfill the actual parameters that it was designed for, which is to overcome and conquer bases, and eventually the country, thus winning the war/game.

This is a false assumption.
The game was designed to have fun at different types of combat. Conquering bases is just a means to promote combat and hence fun. But by no means is it more or less justified than going out and just mixing it up.

Remove buffs, Gvs and base taking from this game and people will still pay to play.
Remove fighters and watch it die in an instant.
The game is about the fight.

lol. i don't believe playing a game is a way to honor a hero to begin with. but if i were, i wouldn't play in a cowardly fashion to begin with. seems kinda ironic to say you are honoring someone by gaming the game and doing things the easiest way possible....but hey thats just me.
i don't drive gv's, because i like to fly.
i don't resupply bases because it is boring and pointless...and i don't care about a pretend war.
i have flied microsoft sim, but it doesn't let me shoot people, and AH is just more fun, but not because of any of the reasons above. like i said, it's your 15/month, go ahead and take bases until you are blue in the face and a new war begins, i simply don't care. i play because i have fun, i don't care how you have fun. but please continue to enlighten me.

Nope, you're wrong. The final goal of the game is to shoot the other guy down, period. GVs and base captures were just added to help promote fights.

Exactly! Each player spends their $15/month their own way. Why does it bother so many people to see a GV utilizing a rare "window of opportunity" and stealing a base?
To quote Pluck " go ahead and take bases until you are blue in the face and a new war begins, i simply don't care
If players "Simply Don't Care" about a GV hammering a town, why engage the GV? What does shooting a GV or dropping a bomb have to do with your concept of game play. This a game of ACM right?
Toad, are you listening? (I will be seeing Toad online..let's see if he can figure it out.)

No, I am reading. Surely you know the difference?
You may see me online; if you look mostly in EW/MW you probably will if you milk enough in the evenings.
What am I supposed to figure out?
Who you are? I simply don't care.
That you are milking? Like I said, I don't care if you pay $15/month to play checkers with yourself.
Bottom line is there is nothing about you interesting enough to figure out.

Because of the fight. Anything with a red icon gets my attention.
It either gets bombs rockets or bullets. Whatever the target needs.

Take a step back and look at the big picture.
The player that decides to drive a GV to a town, destroy it, then come back with troops is just having a good time.
You don't see that player talking trash about players wanting to perform ACM. I think its the "Tom Cruise" wanna-be's that are whining.
Who really has the beef?
Who is calling who "milk runners"?
Why are there non-stop posts about players choosing to take bases?
So who is really bothered by the player sneaking a base?

This thread makes me smile. Ty for all the humor, especially for all the unintended one ;)
