Title: Stop victimizing the Muppets!
Post by: BaldEagl on September 10, 2008, 02:53:20 PM
First it's Steve being called a Pony Pick-tard, then Agent being accused of spying.

(In my best Scotty voice):  "Captain, she's only a Muppet.  She can't take much more."   :D

Hey, not every squad is personalized by one or two or even three members.

I have run up against the Muppetts from time to time, and I never saw any questionable play, ever.

When everyone on the board was blasting the Alliance missions....SkyRock came over and flew a mission with us to actually SEE what we do, and got a big salute from everyone at the end for at least making the effort and making his own educated decision.

If Steve wants to get a few kills, go hotpad, get a couple more kills, hotpad, get a couple more kills and land all those scalps at once...who give's a four flushed corn speckled pile?  It's his 15 bucks.

I know guys who go spawncamping in a Tiger and then go land 45 kills.  It's their $15 bucks.  Who cares what style of play they want.

As long as it's not obvious slimey gameplay or violates HTC's "C-Word" policy...who cares how they play.

I think it depends on how you encounter them, just like any other squad.  I've never had any necessarily poor encounters, even when I had time to fly.

Got some K4 lessons from Agent360, class act that guy.  Been up around Zazen, Moot and Sads before and all were cool.  It's a squad with a lot of big personalities, so it's not going to jive with everyone all the time.

If we all based our flight preferences on the griefing that goes on in here, we'd squelch the entire area on takeoff.

Hehehe.  To some degree, mupps need to take our lumps.  We dish some out sometimes. For myself, I'm going to stay off 200 with the exception of saying hello to a comrade of sending a <S>. There's too many people on that channel with nothing better to do than spread grief. I'm no longer going to be a part of that.
Instead of getting mad at Ho'ers and gangers, I'm just going to return the favor probably. Not the Ho part, it's a fools tactic unless in a hopeless situation. I feel like one of the last guys who won't join the dogpile.  No more. I'm piling on, picking, alting, vulching, all of the stuff I  have shied away form in the past. I get accused of it anyway, might as well do the crime.

As for hotpadding... FWIW  I almost never hotpad.. maybe once or twice a tour.  It's quicker to land and just re-up. Also, I don't even bother to put my landing gear down when I land... a 51 stops quick on its belly.    :lol  :aok

hey Rox, I know what you mean, and this is not directed towards you, but just the last sentence I wanted to comment on in a general sense.

As of late, accusations of spying in the MA have seemingly reached new levels.  Part of the problem is the system, more importantly those who abuse game mechanics.  But I know someone who was very recently, accused of spying under the following conditions.

-fighting at an enemy base, was only a couple friendlies and many more enemy.  I now speculate, that due to the very small enemy dar seen at the field, someone decided to up a mission, either not noticing there were a few cons there, not bothering to check, or figuring they would be dead by the time the mission upped.  So the mission ups, the person I know, saw them upping, and did what any sensible person would do, and that is shoot at them.  Of course the mission party figured the only way he could have known there was a mission was if he was spying, and went on and on ranting about it.

This is how easy it is now to be a called a spy, and though this has nothing to do with you, I wanted to relate the last line to this story.  This person felt that this incident was an act of obvious spying, when in fact it was due to bad timing/bad decision on mission launch.  So where do we draw the line with players accusing others?

Most people can handle it, it becomes extremely annoying that you can barely go a night without someone calling someone else a spy.  99% of the people here are not spies, and just want to play the game without having to deal with such irritating things...at simple task that seems to be getting more difficult every day.

Muppets are good people, as are nearly all the people i've come accross in AH are.

In all honesty I have met maybe 2 people I could do without in this game. i think all of us in this game take things a lil too seriously from time to time, we forget it's a game played by folks not unlike our selves. Everyone plays to their skill and fun level and sometimes we forget that we are all doing the best we can to put up a good fight, take a base, win the war or just screw around and have fun getting killed.

And muppets really are good people,,,,just ask them :D

Only had one problem with a muppet. He got mad at me for doing a BnZ in my pony. Sorry bud but we were close to your base and I was keeping E up so I could get some distance if your friends came to help. You may remember that I didn't run from you when you came back and had an advantage.

I don't play for score and fame. Just to fly and fight some good fights once in a while.

He put up a good fight in his 109 alone was a tough kill. <S>

Objective observation.

Some muppets deserve the fact that they are in a better than average cartoon airplane flyer-wyer squadron.  Other muppets look up to their cartoon hero squaddies as gods and think of themselves as gods b/c they have the same collective name but they are really just more average than most are average.   

Just sayin.....

Go choke on that and figure out if it is a compliment or an insult...  :uhoh

Squadrons like the Muppets, 80th and BKs, etc. are very necessary for AH. They embody the idealism of fighterdom excellence established by Boelke in WWI to "Top Gun" in the 80s and everything in between. They create and perpetuate icons of popular community culture within our game that exemplifies the joys and chivalry associated with fighterdom. It reads a lot like the "Iliad" by Homer, where there are the normal "troops" then there's the Kings and Heroes that are on a completely different level that others aspire to in combat.

In AH these icons serve a very crucial purpose of instilling in the community a sense of the purity and sanctity of fighterdom for its own sake. Without examples and highly "publicized" figures that represent this ideal there would be nothing to "point the way". Inevitably, without these icons, AH would devolve into a bland game of "monopoly" where the perceived "goal" of geographic domination serves as the means to its own end. Fighter purists mollify that tendency of incoming and developing players to help create an environment where fightering excellence is held in higher esteem and becomes a goal unto itself not bound by the contextual constraints of map geography and country base counts.

Well.... I'm in the Muppets and... I rot. I'm a medicore virtual stick at this moment. I'm in the squad as I was invited and I knew of the guys from way back when I was prob more of a challenge to kill.

Zazen is quite correct in his statements... summed up that personalities make this game interesting. If you play awhile many of the handles of "great" virtual sticks will stay w/you. Its simply human nature.

I realise this is a very complex concept. You have to involve the entire gray matter abstract thinking ability most of us possess ... not just your opposable thumbs for peeling the banana.

Squadrons like the Muppets, 80th and BKs, etc. are very necessary for AH. They embody the idealism of fighterdom excellence established by Boelke in WWI to "Top Gun" in the 80s and everything in between. They create and perpetuate icons of popular community culture within our game that exemplifies the joys and chivalry associated with fighterdom. It reads a lot like the "Iliad" by Homer, where there are the normal "troops" then there's the Kings and Heroes that are on a completely different level that others aspire to in combat.

In AH these icons serve a very crucial purpose of instilling in the community a sense of the purity and sanctity of fighterdom for its own sake. Without examples and highly "publicized" figures that represent this ideal there would be nothing to "point the way". Inevitably, without these icons, AH would devolve into a bland game of "monopoly" where the perceived "goal" of geographic domination serves as the means to its own end. Fighter purists mollify that tendency of incoming and developing players to help create an environment where fightering excellence is held in higher esteem and becomes a goal unto itself not bound by the contextual constraints of map geography and country base counts.

Yeah.  That and...

Muppets are good for you because they're made of Whole Wheat (http://www.dasmuppets.com/films/wholewheatmuppets.html).

so is the annual chest thump Muppy thread over yet ?   :rolleyes:

The Army of Muppets is just the trendiest example of the whole Fighterdom Excellence mentality currently. 3-5 years ago it was the Blue Knights, more recently the folks of the 80th coalesced to become another great example. One squadron I am noticing lately that's really getting into the Fighterdom Excellence thing is Pigs on a Wing, they're really doing some great tactical fighter runs and have a lot of individual skill in their ranks. These types of squadrons act as an antithesis to the other types of squadrons, which I shall not name for "political reasons", that advocate taking "real-estate" at all costs even if it means sucking the MA dry of the collective "fun-factor". So, it's very important to the community for Fighterdom Excellence idealism to persist and thrive on the individual and squadron level, the Muppets just being a perfect example of this among several other candidates similarly qualified.

They are called "Army Of Muppets"?

I mistakenly thought they were the "Army Of Inflated Egos"...

If Steve wants to get a few kills, go hotpad, get a couple more kills, hotpad, get a couple more kills and land all those scalps at once...who give's a four flushed corn speckled pile?  It's his 15 bucks.

I know guys who go spawncamping in a Tiger and then go land 45 kills.  It's their $15 bucks.  Who cares what style of play they want.

As long as it's not obvious slimey gameplay or violates HTC's "C-Word" policy...who cares how they play.




ROX

Steve dosen't hotpad or at least I've never seen him do it.. When you see him landing 8 or 10 kills in that dam pony it because he just killed 8 or 10 cons. He's one of the few guys that doesn't need to pad his stat vulching or hot padding to stay in the top on the charts.
