Well, that wasn't hard to find.  The best part is that he didn't land any of his 9 sorties. :rofl

Yes I do but also let me recount a story from yesterday.

I saw a set of B-17's coming in low over our base so I upped a FW109A-8 from right below him.  I killed two, lost half a wing and crashed landing giving the guy a kill.

Then I see a darbar from the same direction this guy had come from.  I upped a Spit XVI and intercepted a set of low Lancs.  I killed all three and landed.  It was the same guy.

Then I see the darbar again so I upped a P-47D-25.  This time it's Ki-67's.  He lost two turning and I took out the third one.  Of course, same guy.  I landed and saw the darbar again so I re-armed and re-upped.  Here he came again in B-26's.  I killed all three then landed.

The darbar ups again so I up a Bf109G-14.  He crosses into my sector but out of my dar ring.  I spot three Ju-88's and a 190F-8 escort.  I engage the 190 and kill it while the 88's get away.  The 190 was the same guy again!

So I land just as the darbar goes back up.  I re-arm and fly out to meet a Spit XVI.  It was the same guy and he finally got me scissoring in front of him after losing the advantage.

What I'm saying is strange things can happen in the MA's.

if those pilots didn't have the right equipment, or the knowledge of how to spot the enemy fighters before theydecloaked for their shots, the buffs are just sitting ducks. :noid

Baldeagl, your story is believable, and comes nowhere near matching the stats listed by murdr, especially since 62 of the 63 kills were in the Spitfire Mk1.

People like Johhnyra should have their scores reset when they do this.

That is plausible considering only 993.38 damage points for 63 kills.  And it makes the average of over 1 kill every 2 minute achievable.

In the same arena I have 2396.81 points for only 43 kills.

Nothing really funny about it.

I wonder if its even worth HTs while to numerically chastise this exemplary example of a father and son "team".

I would certainly hope that HT would so "something" about it!

Actually , i find it pretty funny that even though he is "manipulating the system" he still isn't #1 :rofl

Mmmmmm  I wonder who is?

Midwar and earlywar are home to shade killers, Sprkplg and his squad earlywar, Dextur,biggamer aka Strict9 midwar now johnnyra. these people got smart after scores were erased by htc and now kill squadies shades so scores stay. They don't think players too smart. If you go back look at thier scores hit % 2.4 and k/d of 0.70 for last 6 months to year all of a sudden k/d 20 to 40 and hit % at 30 to 40 %. Not hard to figure out guys killing shade accounts. 1 tod I had 1100 kills  70 were of my son and our next door nieghbor his friend. They would fly bombers only and try to shoot others down. they died 450 deaths 23 kills.


   HTC could stop this easy by just letting People search who a player kills. Now unless you catch name and do search its impossible to see. I think guys would like to see who others kill the most. All you need is new search tool that list names of every pilot a player kills. then we could go to plane types. then you can see who is killing shades and who is just good. also you could check guys like Skyrock And fester who r great sticks,And see if they have 400kills  in fighter if 90% newbies or they hunt better pilots.




 Example :  Search player of player name kills


RS59 vs players

 AKAK  5kills  4 deaths
Cooley  100 kills  0  deaths
Dh367th 9999 kills  0 deaths
Pacerr   1 kill      4000 chase back to bases


I know it would be fun to see who I kill the most every month and who kills me the most. And this search might stop shade killers. but then they might just make 20 extra accounts and that will just help us all. HTC can hire more employees or buy ark for the next flood.

How cute.  Last week Jr thought he was being l337 when he took control of a CV and found a way to get it to sail into a mountain on the edge of the map right next to a base.  Needless to say the howls of cheat ran high, that it was bs and all the like... Jr was giddy in his l337ness and eating up all the attention from people crying about him.  

So in a rare move I upped some bombers (yeah, I know...), AR234's to be exact, and waited for the cv to pop out of the mountain for a brief instance to nail it.  500mph pass and perfect timing, boom, Jr's cv went to the bottom.  I pm'd "Nice try, squeakie" to him and left it at that.  

I thought of that German kid on youtube losing it as I thought what Jr did when his l337ness was foiled.  Seal clubbing is such good fun.

Right now Jr is complaining on 200 about "only Ho dweebs and noobs" playing AH, pointing fingers at other players for their "sucky fighter rank" and proudly boasting that he once had fighter rank 20 in LW

 :rofl


About July or so he was ripping on Betty in Bishland about her "weight" on Green text.   I was winging her and the BoP's at the time.   I posted a few things on green and asked him to Duel.   Next thing I hear was the voice of some kid that still hasn't had the watermelon kicked out of him saying in a VERY SLOW (Slingblade slow) voice "Are we gonna duel?"   This went on for about 15 minutes.   Most would've squelched him.   

He never realized why I typed that stuff.   He couldn't "multi-task" and stopped ripping on Betty, which is all I wanted.   Now some may get a clue on why "Karaya might sometimes say something on text."   

His "dad" if you can call him that, is a bigger tool that obviously went through life without a proper watermelon kicking either.    But the way I see it, there's still hope.

Snibbo and I made JohnnyRa meltdown one night when he was bombing GV's we'd up our ostis while he was circling in his 38 and he'd come down to bomb.
When he dropped the target would tower and the other would put a big hole in his plane...
The rant was priceless :rofl

Yes, you must, HT, I suggest a simple answer to vulching second ranks...

Put in an IP tracker for admins/mods, track it, and if someone kills the same IP (or an IP equal to that of who's killing) x many times in a row...Main Arenas... warning/score reset... 2nd time, 1 week suspension/score reset for the rest of the tour, 3rd time, perma ban... and, er, score reset  :aok

That's a great idea Trigger.  :aok  HTC really needs to do something about the scoring system they have in place now. As it stands now, it in no way reflects anyones "skill" at anything but how well they can work the system.
I've spent countless hours trying to learn my planes of choice and spent alot of money on computer upgrades and gadgets just to improve my game play, just to see how I stack up against the best in the game on a level playing field. But, the fact is, this game is not a level playing field.
AH2 awards players for avoiding fights for the most part. I have 3 computers here. If I wanted to, I could set up 2 other accounts and vulch them all week and be ranked #1 by friday...if not sooner. HTC probably wouldn't mind because it's a extra 30 bucks a month for them, and I'd look like the greatest cartoon twit to ever come down the pike.
Meanwhile, the legit players are forced to accept it as just "part of the game" and come to realize that all that really matters is that one perfect dogfight that brought us to this game in the first place.
There's bad apples anywhere you go and AcesHigh is no different I'm sad to say. :salute

And that's why I guess some players learned their lessons and started to kill their squaddie's shade... different IP's, hard to track


A  lot of posters in this thread are missing the main point of that whole shade killing story. With the split scores between arenas it's often not about scores or ranks at all. It's more often just done to get perks quickly and the cheap way. One gamey hour in EW or MW to fly 262's in LW for a day.

The sad thing is that's starting to get worse. At first it were just the usual suspects like sweet2th/autopilolt/toddnben/wheatever and Jr, but following the "they do it, so why shouldn't I?" one can occasionally see players doing such stuff you would never had expected to do it.

Fortunately, the myth "HTC doesn't care about it" is wrong. If you got some convincing evidence, skuzzy doesn't hesitate to ... take measures ;) (Of course, mere assumptions/rumors/bogus allegations are just being ignored)

NAME, NAME, NAME!

Am I the only one who doesn't give a flying crap who is lame enough to stroke their ego with a score page like this?

There is absolutely no point wasting time on attitudes like this.

The only reason that this sort of score padding matters is for taking control ov CVs and let's face it... Most of the better pilots and therefore the more challenging and interesting fights don't give a hoot about the real estate side of the game anyway.

Let the score padding dorks do their thing. If they're any sort of character they'll soon realise that they're wasting their time and no one cares about their score. I seem to recall a certain score padder who vulched a second account quite obviously and has turned out to be a respectful, contributing member of the AH community. His contribution to scenarios and whatnot are a testament to this particular person's character after being caught out and publicly humiliated.

Right on Arch :aok. The community is pretty tight here and are quick to lynch any lamers that go on with these crazy acts. Ive always thought the scoring system here was FUBAR and thought we should elliminate the top ranking pilots on the AH page. IMO..I think score should be somthing that should be looked at by the individual to see what he/she needs to work on rather than using it as a chest thumper to impress others in the community.

Mid War Tour 104 Fighter Scores for 1LTCAP
 Score   Rank   
Kills per Death + 1 0.67 192
Kills per Sortie 0.67 147
Kills per Hour of Flight 3.78 169
Kills Hit Percentage 5.19 163
Kill Points 60.76 366


that's my fighter score as of today. i only flew 2 hops in fighter mode this tour. i died shooting at b24's on the first one(i got stupid and impatient), and on the second one, i rtb'd without firing a round.

so how do i show anything positive if i haven't killed anything in fightermode?

Your score page shows three fighter sorties -- 2 deaths, one landed.  You are forgetting about another fighter sortie you flew where you evidently got 2 kills before dying.

Scroll all the way to the bottom, you'll see.

Funny that aint it? recorded that a few times, sent it off to HTC and it was "dealt with", and to be honest i never saw them again, untill a few weeks ago.

This could all be solved by implementing the system AirWarrior had where it would broadcast every time someone was shot down, and who killed them. Would also make things a lot more interesting ! =)

I don't have much experience with JohnnyRA, but JR is the poster child for double doses of Ritalin. Hes one of those kids that just has not learned any kind of personal restraint. Like a huge puppy that just wont stop humping the couch.

Check again, that is "kills of", not "kills in" which would be the case with my old friend #9900.  Or more susinctly, the stats in question are 63 kills of heavy bomber formations with a spit 1 in less than 2 hours of sortie time.
