Would you accept that the people you fly with do not want to fly with you or listen to your rants on Squad Channel and find a new group to fly/vox with?
OR
Would you refuse to accept the fact that you have worn out your welcome with the squad and continue to vox, text, fly and generally pretend that you are still in the squad?
Just wondering what the majority opinion is. How would you view someone that took the later route and refused to go away?
-
Ok, whos the tard harassing your squad...(Don't answer that)
-
We send them to the BK's.
-
He was sent packing after many, many second chances. Problem is, he won't go away. Squelching is an obvious 1/2 fix, but it can't stop him from monitoring, giving away info and being a general PITA.
Am I wrong to think he's kinda got a problem?
-
no, he is being a problem for you. Explain to him, very slowly, that he is not wanted around and that if he does not stop harrassing your squad that he will be reported. and do so if it continues.

Use teh red!:aok
-
The obvious solution would be to use a proper squad channel, instead of picking a tuned channel, and squelch the guy.
If that doesn't work, talk to Slash. :furious
-
Using the red is not really an option. It's a mega thing...
Don't want to have to start bugging HTC with this. Besides, he reminds us regularly he's a close personal friend of HiTech and will bring hellfire and damnation down upon us if we mess with him.:noid
-
Film it and email it in.

Yes but you are too wise to believe that HiTech would support/back a person who was deliberately being a PITA. You are too wise for this, I am certain, RPM.
-
I'd run off screaming and form my own 1 person squad and vow revenge. Of course I'd never be able to have that revenge because they'd shoot me down too much. That's why they keep me around, cannon fodder.
-
I would fill a bag of dog dodo and light it on his doorstep:lol
-
btw i doubt anyone has "protections" from HTC if they are such a pest like Steve said
-
Please give me a little credit. I have no fears of HiTech and this guy being close personal friends. Neither does any of my squad. I've tried reason, threat, insult and any other method you can think of to make this loser go away.
My hope is he will see this thread and the opinion of others that are not part of the squad. Maybe then he will realise that he should find another place to hang out. He can fly on range all he wants, but respect our use of the frequency. Maybe he will see that what he is doing is hurting him far, far wrose than it is hurting us.
Personally, if it happened to me I'd be ashamed to show my face. I'd jump country and hunt them down to show them how big of a mistake they had made, not whine and rant on Squad frequency until they take me back.
The last time I had to deal with a situation like this, it was a girl that I dumped. She refused to accept that we were done and started stalking me. She would call me everytime I had a girl over. She had to be sitting out somewhere with binoculars watching from a hilltop because I moved way out into the country.
I had another one track me down after I moved out to get away from her psycho nutbaggedliciousness. She followed me home from work and ambushed me a couple nights later when I brought home a new girl. I finally had to get a restraining order. (BTW, the crazy/sex ratio thing is true)
I never thought I'd ever see a man act like that.
-
this person you are describing does not fit the description of a man anyways. a man would have the fortitude to say "ok, they don;t want me around, I will go find someone who does".
-
Hmmm... Sounds like you're dealing with one of these...

You have to be a total *******/rude/ignorant type person to get kicked from a squad in AH, IMO.

pfft like six sqds later. Van is now a member of 71 RAAF. which reminds me bills are due.

:rofl :rofl :rofl
-
Have you ever thought that maybe he is outside looking at you through binoculars (spelling)... Maybe for some reason, this guy really really likes you and does not want to move on yet.. LOL.. sicko... So what to do in that situation is, go outside, make a shrine to me, Odine; The God of War, have tons of candles lit, put a dead sheep on the alter and do some wild dance.. If he dont go away after that, well I can no longer help you, you are doomed... :p
-
Let HTC deal with it, or just .report him everytime he goes on your channel.
You have done all you can

RAF not RAAF :)
Vans is on probation and he knows it. it is our hope that he can mature and become a respectable member of this society. he has no 2nd chances if he screws up, and you know that, dontcha vans.
RPM: on topic:
i would suggest that you stop talking about the guy indirectly. while i can see the kindness of not mentioning names, the guy in question should still see this thread and take a hint....right?
hmm
i dont think so for some reason.
what you need to do is tell us who it is, only through the public humiliation that will provide him can you stand a chance. If every one of us knows who he is and what he is doing to your squad then we can give him flak about it untill he gets the picture. as it is we may be being polite and nice to this guy not knowing he is the PITA, therefore affording said PITA an enjoyable game with people to play with.
if we all know who he is, we can help y'all by making his online time less pleasant untill he complies with your reasonable demands.
-
So far Vans has been an asset and a good squaddie.
-
No sane squad would let me join in the first place...
-
Your avatar disturbs me as much as Nilsen's does.
-
this is rich. the FoSGs (to the uninitiated that would be Flocks of seagulls, my moniker for the otherwise self named birds of prey skwad which in my opinion is an outright lie as by definition predatory birds don't congregate but these players do nothing but congregate) who are the biggest rule breakers in the game and are in my opinion the principal reason why you have four MAs today now have come to BBS whining about a member breaking their rules.
PATRIOTS is an annoying player. his rightful place is in your weak annoying squad. bring him close and hold him to your bosom because he is a reflection of who you are.
GoPATSGo you have grown in my estimation. this could make you a toolshed legend.

Use 'squad' in radio box 5 (red colored 'squad' in the drop down portion) and the only people who will be able to hear/talk to members of the squad, on vox, will be members of that squad. :aok
That should take care of any unwanted folks talking on your channel. :D
-
rpm, the character you speak of is quite obviously an attention hound, albeit an insecure attention hound. By putting the "dirty laundry" out on the line for everyone to see, you're falling prey to his twisted thinking.
Wanna make this guy go away? Pay him NO ATTENTION. Zip, zilch, nada. Chances are, he'll be even more of a PITA for a few days but then he'll get the picture (hopefully) and go away. If he doesn't, call his "good friend" Hitech :rofl
Good luck!
-
I would say the guy is obviously a wack job. He sounds delusional and unwilling to accept rejection and he is probably watching you with binoculars.
-
He also has a big calander on his wall that tells him where you were every day at any time.:lol

it is very unfortunate that you feel the need to single the player out storch but it shows your lack of character again (he had already pm'ed me telling me you have been taunting him on pms over this issue...grow up storch...act like a man) i hope your jollies from posting the above is worth the pain you might have caused the individual. he is already going thru a hard enuf time without public humiliation and i apologize publicly to him for this..he was a superb squadmate who unfortunately stepped on enuf toes to force a very difficult decision...he will be an assett to any squad he chooses to join as he is skilled and a team player...
i wish him the best of luck and happiness and hope this thread dies quickly...the input has been useful but this is an issue for us to handle ourselves...dale/roy have much more important issues im sure...

I had a great chat with him last night on 200 so you can unwedgy your panties. he was very forthcoming about what the issue was and he wasn't at all unkind about the squad. furthermore it was you and your members that broached the topic in the first place.
why don't you just get your horde of weak rule breakers to just .report me next time I'm on like you always do?

the problem with that is none of those guys can fight very well. even in a 5v1 situation the 1 often prevails against the 5 FoSGs and that would be with them weakly attempting to gang the 1 in their ack.
in a nutshell they are bye and large awful players.

I realize things have changed greatly since I ran a squad, but isn't the point of serving in a leadership position to handle these types of issues in house, out of respect for both the squad and the individual involved? Was asking for advice on how to run your squadron on the general forum really considered the best course of action?

lol skilled. I'm glad I re read your post I needed a good chuckle today as I do every day.
I submit to you that if skill were a delivery truck with it's name address and telphone number emblazoned all over it and had a skill vanity tag on it you would not know what hit you if it ran you over.
skill indeed.

-
Bops, this is the trade off for working around the squad constraints- that tuned channel is not your channel- unless the guy is abusing his comm privs, reporting him could be considered abuse of that feature, and you might be the ones to get the boot instead.
However, if it really is Patriots, yeah, the guy's always been a sweetheartbag to me. You're probably safe to just mass report him.

To answer your question. If I was kicked out on bad terms I would not look back but seek a new group to fly with. I would learn from my mistake and fly with those who like what I like and to make sure I would not join a squad too hastily.
-
If I was kicked out of a squad I would immediately go to the other country, start a new squad with a similar name and ruthlessly hunt down my previous squads mates and kill them without mercy. Then I would ridcule them on 200, take creen shots and come post them on the BBS.

That is so not cool. Earworms are contagious.
Here's a clue for the squad in question: Secretly change your tuned (not squad) vox channel and only tell your members. Maybe he'll eventually find it but something tells me the ADD will kick in and he'll forget after about 30 or so.

Well Storchetta, Pat was one of ours but I don't believe that he was the subject of the thread that you hijacked to spew forth your venom on the BOPs, man you really should try a little more bran in your diet.

I have encounterd this same problem with a ex squddie, who was numerously squelched, lost chat privligages and caused all kinds of problems.
I finally had to remove him from the squad because he would actually get into heated arguments with other squad members. However I had a talk with him and explained he may come on vox if he can maintain himself. But he still flies with us alot like he is part of the squad, and has not joined another squad since, mostly because those on our country will not accept him.
unfortunetly he is a good guy, just takes the game to serously.
Hightec will support u for sure. I once stated over vox i was recording a guy that was possibly cheating but i never sent my film in. However someone else in the general area did and it had me talking about my film. Skuzzy himself sent me a email requesting the film to straighten things out. They do keep a eye out for us

For the record, I have not and refuse to name the person in question. If they read this they can decide about disclosing their identity. I haven't named the squad in question either.
This hopefully will serve as proper and improper etiquette examples and lead to a better AH experience for everyone.

If you were kicked out a squad wouldn't you have a good look at your behavior and contemplate why it was considered necessary by your former friends to have you removed from their company?
Or, alternatively, would you not realise that you were flying with people whom you don't click with and simply go somewhere else and carry on as usual in the hopes of finding other like minded players?
Or, failing that, just lone-wolf it and enjoy flying by yourself?
Online 'vengeance' is surely a little childish?
And like Storch said, tuned channels are not private and are open to anyone who wants to play with their radio. If you want to solve the problem, stick to squad channel.

If I was kicked out of my squad I would send JETSOM'S wife an e-mail and whine and cry so much to her that she would demand that he take me back so she could get some peace of mind!!!!!! and if that didnt work I'd have my mom call and ask him herself to let me back in (he loves my mom :D )

Just a small correction here Storch (Sorry- I've been outta town or would have caught this earlier...)
1- "Predatory" birds congregate quite commonly. The vast majority of predatory birds are NOT "birds of prey". Predatory birds live by killing and eating other animals. By definition, any bird that kills and eats other animals would be predatory, even a loon eating fish, or a swallow eating insects, or a robin eating worms, etc... It is extremely common to see "predatory" birds congregating. (Crows, seagulls, cranes, etc...)
2- If you were referring to actual "birds of prey" in your statement, it would again be incorrect. They often congregate as well. Migration would be an obvious starting point to this argument. Another would be when prey species follow a predictable schedule, as when hordes of bats leave caves in the evening. Birds of prey regularly congregate to prey on these animals. Not as a team though, they're there as individuals.
3- Family groups of birds of prey are technically congregations as well. Admittedly this is a fairly brief and seldom witnessed time of the year though. This would be when young birds follow the parents away from the nest and eventually begin to attempt hunting.
4- One species of bird of prey actually works with multiple individuals working together as a team. This would be the Harris' Hawk of the American southwest. These birds are nicknamed the "wolves of the air" due to the pack-like structure they utilize. Alpha / Beta birds- truly amazing. And they have to be seen to be believed when it comes to hunting as an aerial "pack". Woe be to any jackrabbit that is spotted by a hungry group of Harris' Hawks!!
OK- enough learnin' for one day- back to your arguments!
BTW- The disturbed individual who is the subject of this thread needs to walk away from the game for a bit in my opinion. Or at the very least grow up and see the "light". I ran across an individual on range vox who I believe is the individual in question. He needs to take the hint...

Man... You just blew Storches whole FoS thing he's been promoting so heavily for the past month or so out of the air. :rofl
-
;) BTW- your namesake congregates every winter in areas where fish are easy to catch or find incapacitated. Around here we find large numbers of them congregated below dams in the winter where there is open water and often dead or injured shad.
"Predatory" does not define "bird of prey".
A vulture is a bird of prey, but it eats carrion (which also makes up a huge portion of a bald eagles' diet)... Odd eh?

Seeing that I work a lot and have a life more than AH2 I dont really have time to check the forums or devote my life to posting on them except occasionally on weekends. So I was told by someone about this one and wasn't going to post on it because like many ppl have said, things are often better off kept in-House. But since rpm(known in the game as HotDogMn!) has slandered me and created numerious false accusations I've decided to air some of the truth about this. He's just wound up because I dont respect one of his little buddys who has back stabbed me numerious times so hes trying to make me look bad in the community. Also the fact he says that he's not naming names or squads after bringing up direct refrences to things is one of the most mornic things I've seen here.
To show you how childish and superficial all this is Im gonna spell it out to everyone now since HotDogMn has decided to try to alter whats really happened. Unlike you've been told I never have intentionally caused trouble on ch or START any arguements. I never have taken it personal or taken personal shots at anyone, its always been about baseball (lol) which is all in good fun in my mind. Yes, I get into it but have never once taken it serious like obviously others have. Lastly I dont use a mic on our channel EVER so all that ppl know of me is text, its not like im fired up on the mic ranting in ppls ears. Tell me please... how easy is it to ignore CH TEXT once in a while? lol
I love sports an I'm very passionate aout it, I am a huge baseball and football fan as most of you know. In the -bops- I was eventually told I'm "not allowed" to discuss sports(lol) mostly because it would turn in to a huge arguement than often rubbed ppl the wrong way. But so you all know... this happened almost always when I was talking to friends in the bops about games and the same 1-2 ppl would jump in and say "your team sucks"etc.. or try to fire me up intentionally. So I eventually felt like I was walking on egshells if I said a single thing about sports.
The problem I had was only with 2-3 players in a squad of 80+ people unlike hotdog has portrayed I'm good friends or in at least good standing with all but those 2 or 3. I tried numberious times to work it out with them but they refused to let things go and move on like adults. I think they love drama and feed of it as you can clearly see. Im not gonna change who I am and not talk sports because of ppl in the squad and their bad attitudes. A select few trouble makers cant keep their mouths closed when it comes to taunts and personal shots so its their problem not mine. But ive been told because they have been arround longer they are right and im wrong.
Finally hotdogmn has tried to make it seem like I was "kicked out" which is not true at all. After talking to falconwing the squads leader through PMs one night after another sports bickering deal, he said "why dont you take some time off to cool down" I therefore withdrew from the squad for "a period of time" and told my wing leader no need to remove me. Also I have permission from the LEADER(s) to be on CH so the whole point of this thread has no basis at all...
Bottomline is I come here to have fun which is what its all about right..? I come here to talk with in-game friends about many diffrent things involving the game and not.... just like people in every other squad.

I take it you're a Redsox fan in a squad full of Yankees?
(The Sox DO "suck," btw :p )
:D
-
REDSOX in First place for 5 months now...baby ..so that must mean the YANKEES SUPER SUCK in second place...:lol
btw.. theres only one real yankee fan in the squad(who im in good standing with) and one typical yankee bandwagonner/frontrunner who is playing AH2 during huge games and couldn't name the lineup if his life depended on it...

Yeah, that's pretty much what I am. I "cheer" for the Yankees because my father and his father did, but I only watch games in October. Couldn't tell you a thing about them, really.
Wouldn't want to - baseball's not my thing. Hockey guy here :aok

There's your problem right there.
Not sure how you can put 80 people in a room, and not have 2 to 3 that just can't stand to be in each others presence.
Out of curiosity, have the BoPs ever tried to keep it to individual squad rooms and coordinate just thorugh a spokesperson in each wing? It would keep your communications channels "secure" from spying, and also make it easier to separate those who just can't get along (Player1 and Player2 don't like each other, send Player2 to BoPsquad2, and problem solved).
-
Well, Patriots- You're not the guy I ran into on range vox, griping about being booted from his squad.
The individual I was refering to was somebody else, and judging from what it was like on range I can easily understand why he was booted...

Uh....where did rpm ever call you out by name?:confused:

Well not thats its worth much but here is my two cents on this matter.
I flew with the B.O.P.'s for a short period of time and came to know some of them well. i almost never failed to have a good time when flying with them and for most of those squad nights and gey Friday get together i found myself in a generally calm and friendly atmosphere with the battering and bantering being playful and friendly and the insults cast back and forth done in a respectful and silly kinda format, never hostile or abusive.
it saddens me to hear that things have changed amongst the Birds and hope that they can find themselves moving into some form of reconciliation or a peaceful separation soon. its time to get back to the purpose of this game, to enjoy pretending to kill every night in V.R. land those real losers we have to tolerate everyday in our real lives. (key word being ENJOY!!!)
Mostly i think that it is time that the rest of us who are not B.O.P.'s step back and pull our collective noses out of a private and internal matter and leave them to clean their laundry in private. this issue does not concern us nor will its out come dictate any terms or conditions in our lives, be it in real or virtual. so because we have no stake in the outcome or are we at any personal risk here, i would ask that we all show a little respect and let this issue be dealt with in the house of the B.O.P.'s without further input from those who have no business in the matter.
We may be all apart of one happily dysfunctional family, but i dont involve myself in the house of my cousins unless its truly necessary.
<> to the B.O.P.'s and PATRIOTS my you resolve your issues to the betterment of all
<> to all in V.R. land and happy hunting

LOL! So they're arguing about baseball?
You know Patriots, I respect your love of the game and your team, but it's really better to take the hardcore fan stuff to other hardcore fans. If my text was filling up with long discussions of "my team's the greatest" I'd probably tell you to shut it too.
Obviously whatever banter you are engaging in affects the whole squad, so they are probably justified in telling you to knock it off. Start you own squad, call it Red Sox #1 and get a group going you can share this with, mebbe your two buddies will come and join!
-
Vudak: Yeah bro "to each his own" is how I look at it do what you think is right for you.
E25280: As far as red squad text it wont work because the squad is enormus and the RED squad ch is only for each wing which is only 30 ppl.
MtnMan: I'm sure I havent run into you either.. I keep quiet on local ch, country and 200 99% of the time nowadays unless its tactical.
Donzo: Lets not be foolish its blatently obvious what hes trying to do here and who hes attackin in a public forum. Storch used my name and that made it even more obvious. I appreciate falcon standing by me but that also showed very clearly who it was all about. Lets not play games and pretend WE dont know who it was all about...
FLOTSOM: sir... you've been all class from the second I knew ya..and you made many excellent points that I agree with 100%
Kj714: "take the hardcore fan stuff to other hardcore fans" cant argue with that honestly
-
I'm in New England a lot, and it's really annoying having people tell me how great the Sox are and how much every other team sucks. Not even Yankees fans are so up tight about it. I enjoy watching the Sox on NESN quite a bit, but the typical thick accented die hard Sox fans have to be the most stubborn and prone to argument just for arguments sake of any people I've known.

The fact remains that rpm, nor any of the other people in his squad ever once mentioned your name.
Storch mentioning it is between you and him.
Rpm's post was a generic post that was not calling out anyone. At no point was there an attack on you directly until Storch "let the pat" out of the bag.
So in closing, yes, I knew who rpm was talking about, most of the BoPs did (if they read these boards). Did we mention you by name? No. So maybe you need to get with the person responsible for throwing your name out there.
-
I really could careless if he used my name or not... The real fact remains that his original post was about me and his goal was to unjustifiably make me look bad. You have become dillusional and in total denial by making comments like "Rpm's post was a ?GENERIC POST? that was not calling out anyone.. At no point was there an attack on you". Thats a load of crap and everyone knows it..period.
As far as "getting with the person responsible", that's hilarious that you somehow find someone who happen to guess that it was me "responsible". What am I gonna get mad at storch cause he figured out who it was LMAO... I'm actually glad someone brought this thread to my attention so I can spread the truth about it. The person responsible is the moron that started this post to try to create me problems over things that I havent done and you know it donzo.
So stop tyring to create other avenues to justify him doing this just because he doesnt directly use my exact ingame name. No matter what its wrong and should of been kept pvt. He knew full well someone would of figured it out. The best thing is this has totally backfired on hotdogmn(rpm) in a huge way.

Call me stupid but I didn't know this thread was referring to Pat at all until Storchettas post. All I know is that I don't have a problem with him but I do have a problem with all the sports bravado cluttering up the channel when we are fighting or otw to fighting. I didn't know RPM was a squaddie, I don't have a different handle in here then I do in the game. This should NEVER have been subjected to this BBS!

We fly together more for the conversation than coordinated actions so multiple channels would sorta kill that. But you're right it would stop spies.

ROFL... doc I cant believe fungi lies to your face like that .. shows his lack of class and respect for squadmates. RPM is 100% no doubt no question HotDogMn.

Nice try though fungi you get a F for effort:lol

Not to stir the pot, but if RPM's not a BOP, why is he posting this in the first place?
I think he is a BOP and Pat's an ex-BOP, and everyone's just be-BOPing along here. BOP-ity, BOP-BOP, de-be-BOP.
You know, there is no rule about going to any channel you want, no squad "owns" any one channel.
Hey Patriots, make your own squad "Birds of Prey - Patriots", LOL!
It really was asinine to bring this to the board. Nothing like airing squad dirty undies for everyone to see. And it was RPM's intent to shame the guy into going away, he say's so, looks like he underestimated Patriots just a bit.

I am a BoP. I am HotDogMn. Never denied it, never will. I also never mentioned my different handles to my squad so they may honestly have had no idea unless they decoded my sig. I was trying to keep this respectful without embarassing you by name so I laid out a generic form of what has happened.
Storch, in his ever present blind rage hatered for all things BoP thought it would be funny to call you out by name. I said more than once I would not call names. I wanted this to be a talk about proper etiquette.
Now that you want to discuss it in public, I'm happy to oblige.
You were ejected from the Birds Of Prey because of your attitude and rants. I had nothing to do with that. That was the CO's call. You have decided to take an immature route and harass the channel the BoP community uses.
I was hoping you would see the opinion of outsiders neutral to the situation and respect their opinion. I was hoping you could see just how childish and passive-aggressive you were behaving.
Pats, you are not Joe Innocent and you should know it. One night you blew up at me foaming at the mouth for not saluting you on landing kills (that I didn't see because I was dogfighting) like I had just killed your pet bunny rabbit. You have emotional problems that need medical attention.
Think a minute about who ejected you and why. You had been warned many times before it finally happened to you. There are no 4th strikes or 5th downs.
Move on with your life. Switch countries and hunt us down, show us what a mistake we made. I could totally respect that.

I don't hate anyone RPM and certainly not in a game. I think you guys are saps and I enjoy mowing you down in the game. I love that I can fly into a dozen of you and exit with five pelts to land.
I enjoy taunting you guys because you are so easily taunted. I'm also in awe of how someone can play a game so long, never improve, participate in the lowest form of game play within the structure and do that with nauseating repetition.
the FoSGs, awe inspiring in a negative way. :D

I myself ate a hamburger yesterday. I didn't kill the cow. I found a piece of it lying in a refrigerated section of a local store. Somebody else killed it, and eventually a chunk of it found its way into that refrigerated section! Amazing!
So- In effect I found (the act of scavenging) a piece of a dead animal I did not kill (carrion) and actually ate it! I'm a scavenging carrion eater!! As is a bald eagle! (And were I to place a bet, I would bet that Slash27 is too, as well as BldEagle!!!!)(Does that make us equals in the eyes of the true predators out there?)( Are there any in here that are NOT scavenging carrion eaters?!?!?!)
Face it Slash27, you are more like BldEagle than you know! (As am I...)

Still making up lies and running out false accusations hodoggirl? Listen real close you half-wit... I WITHDREW from the bops for a period of time after PMing YOUR leader falcon and making an agreement with him like I said in the earlier post where I fully explained it all. Also I have not caused any trouble over anything meanigful, I've got allong with everone on CH and I have your COs permission to be on the CH... Why dont you ask him yourself? I guess with your little brain plus that thick skull you can't understand that or register the facts as they really are no matter how many times you are told.
YOU are the ONLY person that causes trouble with anyone on the ch now and furthermore the ONLY person I now have an issue with. The one other person I did have problems with, we totaly ignore eachother and we seemed to have moved on. So guess what ? YOU are the only person in the squad that is still lingering on this issue and still causing problems. I've flown on ch for two weeks now with not a single issue but you STILL are constantly swearing at me, threating me and my family and numerious other classless rants and thats gonna stop! You need to look in the mirror and see who is really causing the problems here.
All this shows in you fabricating lies and slander against me is how desperate you are to make me look bad because you and you ALONE dont want me around. Well boy... is it not working and it has clearly by the responses I've got ingame and in pms has backfired yet again on you.
Stop being a small minded ignorant fool and wake up to reality... Its not your squad, you never were a leader and never will be, you dont make the rules and you will do what you are told.

Patriots was a BoP.

Not that Slash needs me to defend him, but I believe you are mistaken. The original quote was about Storch and his namesake, not BldEagle. Slash's comment was pointing out that he felt the habits of Storch's namesake in the wild somehow fit his habits in AH, and therefore the comment "How fitting".
I of course have no idea what any of this is about, and even if I did I wouldnt listen to a chump like Slash. :)

I of course have no idea what any of this is about, and even if I did I wouldnt listen to a chump like Slash. :)
What is a Storch? What do they do in the wild? (or elsewhere?)
I've heard of storks, of course, but not storchs. There was an airplane used as an observation plane by the germans in WW2 named a storch. Is that a different spelling for stork? Like sturm and storm?
Stork behavior is very similar to crane behavior. Mostly walking around eating invertebrates and such. Nothing too exciting. Does Storch do that in AH?
Very odd...

I guess I do pick invertibrates out of the slime which they inhabit in AH. the aplication is correct after all I am a scourge to the FoSGs in the game. however birds of prey do not flock. seagulls and hens do.
henceforth you may select from FoSGs or FoRHs (flocks of running hens) either is appropriate when refering to the...um..well the FoSGs or the FoRHs.
I selected my cpid for my favorite plane the remarkably functional and utilitarian fi-156 fiesler storch a liason type similar in function to the piper cub but far far uglier.
that is all, carry on.

Storks primarily feed on small fish. Fish are not invertabrates.
Just thought you should know.

Seagull is one word.
Therefore Flock of Seagulls would be abbreviated FoS, not FoSG.
Storch, if you're going to make fun of us, at least try to be intelligent about it.
I mean come on, you cleaverly came up with FoRH (flocks of running hens) which makes sense (running and hens are two words). Well, I guess you are making progress...WTG :aok

Hehe, some do Storch. As previously mentioned, Harris' hawks do. So do Swainson's hawks. Flocks of Swainson's hawks are called "kettles". As in "I saw a kettle of Swainson's hawks." Some kettles (flocks) of Swainson's hawks have been recorded with more than 500 birds.
Other birds of prey that hunt as a group (flock) would be the Zone-tailed hawk, and the Eleonora's falcons. Also, it is not uncommon to find mated pairs of a variety of other raptors joining forces in the quest for prey.
Your argument would be more valid if it had some truth to it. Right now it's as truthful as if you were saying "hawks don't fly", or "storks are supreme aerial warriors", or "the earth is flat".
I know you can do better!
Your argument would be much more entertaining if it had a ring of truth to it! It wouldn't sound so much like an ignorant rant. It's hard to get people to follow your lead if they think you're a fool. At least fake it, and make it sound like you know what you're talking about!
Might I suggest that you could argue that the respective branches of the BoP's don't use attack strategies appropriate to their namesake? Birds of prey really only utilize 8 different attack strategies (one of which is "hunting in groups", unfortunately for your argument). For example, do the accipiters actually attack in an accipitrine manner?
The obvious downside to that would be that they could argue that you don't attack like a storch should either... Also, I believe storks are mute, and only communicate by clacking their bills, etc. Do you accurately follow that example?
MtnMan
BTW- I really don't know any of the BoP's any more than I know you. Just tryin' to help you out a bit! Gotta root for the underdog, right?

na they get tarred with the same brush. your explanation of the few flocking hawks does not change the fact that while there may be exceptions to the rule birds of prey do not flock. two or three species of crossdressing glorified chickens doesn't change that. regarding the squad in question, these guys are no birds of prey but I might concede that they are birds of spray and pray as they screech and dive to the cover of mother ack.

I guess with your little brain plus that thick skull you can't understand that or register the facts as they really are no matter how many times you are told.
YOU are the ONLY person that causes trouble with anyone on the ch now and furthermore the ONLY person I now have an issue with. The one other person I did have problems with, we totaly ignore eachother and we seemed to have moved on. So guess what ? YOU are the only person in the squad that is still lingering on this issue and still causing problems. I've flown on ch for two weeks now with not a single issue but you STILL are constantly swearing at me, threating me and my family and numerious other classless rants and thats gonna stop! You need to look in the mirror and see who is really causing the problems here.
All this shows in you fabricating lies and slander against me is how desperate you are to make me look bad because you and you ALONE dont want me around. Well boy... is it not working and it has clearly by the responses I've got ingame and in pms has backfired yet again on you.
Stop being a small minded ignorant fool and wake up to reality... Its not your squad, you never were a leader and never will be, you dont make the rules and you will do what you are told.
Sigh...
I should let this die a slow painful death, but just need to clear up a few things first.
A) Falc told me you were ejected, not quit...ejected.
B)I am not the only one that has problems with you squatting on channel.
C)Everything I have said is the truth. I fabricated nothing.
D)Did you read any of the responses in here? You're being a tool.
Hey Storch, You're welcome to drop by the squad on Friday nights!
-
A: You're wong.. I withdrew after talkin' to falcon in PMs ..ask him again
B: You're wrong.. I have the squad leaders permission to be on OUR ch..ask him
C: You're wrong.. you have lied about many many things throughout.. ask anyone
D: You're wrong.. You are the one who posted it and caused all of this by Not keeping it in house... in our forums. It has blown up in your face . Also 10+ of your squadmates have already come to me saying said it was stupid to do and even random ppl have said it on here. Plus you have now given enemys of the squad ammo. Good work
"E":

When I see you explain it like that Storch it makes a LOT of sense, lol. :rolleyes:
Don't worry about it- who needs facts on their side, right?
You can lead a horse to water and all that...
Carry on mate- you're doin' swell! The BoP's obviously have one heck of a thorn to deal with, right?
Grits, facts are not always funny. I was honestly trying to give Storch some well-needed coaching. I'm still willing, but it looks like it may take more time and devotion than I am willing to give. At least for free.
Suppose the church laughed when Galileo explained that the world was round, and revolved around the sun? Not!

thanks RPM, I sure will look for you and when I find you I'll mow you guys down like autumn wheat.....again.
as I suggestion try flying in at 107k utilizing woobicanes and LA-7s because that way......er nevermind you did that last week and still died in droves.
-
I've no idea why you are so confident, i cant recall having any trouble shooting you down in the past
-
in a horde? or 1v1? generally speaking I'm good to kill between 3 to 7 of you FoSGs beford the horde cube bounces me. by that time I'm pretty near clipping hedges.
if you want we can meet up in the DA and you can school me there if falconwing allows you to.

I was a BoP for 2.5 years and had great laughs while flying with them. Banter and jokers at each others expense was the order of the day, and having an Irish accent I should know.
This all changed when one individual could note take the banter and instead took it personally and escalated jokes into text typing arguments. Pat, 99% of the time I got on with you, but man, that 1% was a killer for me. I admire your dedication to your sports team and as a strong supporter of Manchester united I understand that people will always say your team sucks and xxx team is better. It is much better to laugh it off as banter than to try telling them they are wrong.
This is a game and a game is for having fun. If you are not having fun either with the game or those you fly with then you need to look at the reasons why. For me it was time to move on and I am glad I did. I'm back having fun again.
Question for Pat: If you were not cast out... why do you call your one man squad the "Outcasts"?
Pat I hope you are having fun in the game again and you decide to do what makes most sense for you and those you interact with. For the 99% of good times I'll still clear you six.
BoPs . Was/Is great winging with you all (even though your all raging poofs :) ). See you in the virtual air.

Interesting! I too thought this was the case.
Evidence- Calling of names (seagulls) is both teasing AND a compliment! It would seem to be teasing at first, becasue seagulls can be viewed as a "less than ideal" comparison. But looking deeper you see that the seagull actually has much in common with storks (both nest in colonies, use a similar incubation strategy, often have similar coloration, eat similar foods, etc...) and that he compares their (the BoPs) flight style and strategy in particular with seagulls. This is a serious compliment! Seagulls have proven to be highly adaptable and successful worldwide (unlike storks) have high intelligence compared to other birds (including storks). Also, seagulls are true "masters" of the air. Who can watch them fly and not marvel at their ability??? They easily outclass storks in the air (which are much more ground oriented, and prefer to walk- note the long legs!) which basically do a lot of flying in a relaxed, fairly straight course. The outsretched neck and legs don't help with manueverability.
Comparing the BoPs to a seagull also compares them to a bird that shares traits with storks, so it highlights similarities between two birds taht at first don't appear similar.
For that matter, seagulls are really only threatened/prey upon by a very few select raptors. Most raptors do not have any hope of catching and subduing a seagull!
Also, we have seen demonstrations of prowess! Listing of abilities (killing multiple players online). True or not, people brag in an attempt to impress, whether for a job interview, potential friend / partner, etc...
So, we have-
Teasing, complimenting, highlight of similarities, and displays of prowess...
Sounds like a definate case of flirting, if not outright courtship behavior!
Could it be we mistook it for hatred at first because the mating displays of storks are so dissimilar to raptors?

.... ..
Well, 1st off, I put the squad on MY probation tryout to see if they are up to MY standards. I have not met one squad I like, so far in 5 months playing this game.
I fly solo! Gordo flew solo, too.
Change your in game name to somebody else and in here to forums go incognito. The smarter, more observant fellows will probably figure you out, but as is true with common sense, common sense ain't so common. I'm not worried. Of course the upper echelon fellows privy to your IP number, know!
One squad in particular had so many pre-join qualifications I think all they do is kick people out. They were the most foul mouth bunch of guys I've seen since framing houses.
I'm looking for just one guy to fly wingman while we protect each other. I'm not interested in squads.
VOX channels are nice for intel. Some guys use secondary channels thinking they are secure. Best to use a 3rd party communication service. Morse works.
Guys in here say score does not matter. How many guys will change accounts and give up their perk points?
============================
re:
If YOU Were Kicked Out Of A Squad
Would you accept that the people you fly with do not want to fly with you or listen to your rants on Squad Channel and find a new group to fly/vox with?
OR
Would you refuse to accept the fact that you have worn out your welcome with the squad and continue to vox, text, fly and generally pretend that you are still in the squad?
Just wondering what the majority opinion is. How would you view someone that took the later route and refused to go away?

Since when do score and perks have anything to do with each other? A score potato doesn't play for perks, that's why they fly late war birds.

WooHoo, post # 200 of this thread...
And I still think storch has a desire to be a BoP or atleast immitate the BoPs.
By the way, artists think it is an honor to have a song parady by Weird Al. So the BoPs should feel special with Storch and his whole FoS thing he's got kickin.
