Title: SkyTiger Please Come Back!!!!!
Post by: TwentyFo on November 19, 2008, 05:48:29 PM
SkyTiger I really enjoyed reading your accounts of your day to day adventures in this game. I think you let some of the veterans get to you. This community is unique, in the sense that players who have played AW and every other game preceeding this game think they are better than everyone else. They are nothing but bullies. A while back they even accused someone of lying about a child's death. All I can say is that you need to ignore them and keep on flying. <S>

If you have played other sims it's not too hard to get up to speed fast in AH2.  The hard part is the gunnery and vehicles.

He did seem a bit above the average however.  But who cares.  His threads had some entertaining value.

From your comment it is obvious you never encountered him in the sky nor looked at his stats.  He was hardly 'good' for a n00b, more like on par with being a n00b.

Did anyone see any of his squadmates stand up for him on his behalf?  I never heard anything from any of his squaddies.

Again I don't understand what's so hard about someone new doing pretty well starting off.  All flight sims are similar, all you have to do is get the feel for the one you're flying and it's not that difficult to be okay... great?  sure, but not just ok.  He was barely okay at best.

I guess if you came to AH after watching a certain commercial only wielding a mouse and only with counterstrike experience under your belt, I can see how you'd think it's so tough and impossible for someone new to do well.

Wtg maskfaces.

I thought that you had peaked out, but you're adding a measure of subtlety and your trolls are indeed becoming more effective.  By this time next year you may be somewhere near believable.

I agree with the OP on this.

Steve (or anyone else who agrees with his post), if you don't like his narcissism, don't read his posts.  It's as simple as that.

You're lucid enough to see thru the shade account but not that that's beside the point.

Personally, I wish SkyTiger would NOT leave.  I may have called him on a couple of things, but it's all part of life.   Everything will not be Roses.

Like I told him in the other thread I couldn't give a hoot if it's a shade or someone that's been here before.  That really isn't a bother but why he has to try and blag this tale is beyond me and serves no purpose. 

He's gone a bit drama about this.  No one has tried to make him leave.  Is he genuinely aggrieved or is it engineered for the 2 week expiry?

My vote:  ------->  His two weeks are up.....see ya and thanks for stopping by. 

We dont need any more people who are going to berate others either on vox or on 200.  We already got too many.

Post by: moot on November 19, 2008, 10:31:46 PM
Lynx - It doesn't matter. He's just one player. The real issue is that so many on the forum piled up on a new guy who did nothing but post AARs, just because he had a funny way of sharing his stories and tickled their shade paranoia.  What he PMed you is beside that point, I'm not arguing how right or wrong it was or how just your instinct were.

I'm sure there will be several people that attack my "Cartoon patriotism".   They will be fed by this post I am certain.  Anyways, enjoy....

Im a new squaddie in JG2.  I questioned some squaddies about SkyTiger the 1st day i read his post.  I did not comment on the bbs, and had my reasons.  I like my new squad and hate to call out a squaddie, but this aint life or death, and my dealings with him have eased my reluctance to do so.

I don't know for a fact if he is new or a shade.  My opinion is that he is not.  That is only an opinion based on hearing his questions, comments, and anaylisis on squad vox.

If he is new, I am past the point of caring, because he is as long winded on the radio as he is in these posts.  Twice the other day he plowed through a play by play of his previous flight more detailed than Vin Scully watching a slow motion replay of Kirk Gibson hitting a World Series winning home run.  Meanwhile, I was flying against multiple enemies in TT just trying to have a decent amount of SA.  That was after days of tolerating it.   

His belittling attitude on 200 only furthers my contempt for a fellow squaddie. 

I've read his posts.  To those that buy it, <S>.  For those that are tired and suspect of it, I am with you.  I squelch him as soon as I log.

Thank you for the info.  I found it extremely strange that this "noob" got into a squad so quickly after just starting to play AH.  That was my first clue that he might not be who he claims.  But maybe he knew someone, I don't know.

I take it all back.  He MUST be either a n00b or a squeeker.   :rofl

As much as I think TwentyFo's thread is about as sincere as an electrified mouse trap I can't help but think CryTiger brought it upon himself.  A less than cynical type may deduce the 2 weeks free is just about up.  Time for an IP change?

I used to be a car salemen for my sins.  I can tell you this.  I wish some of you guys were my customers.  I'd make a good earn.  Your full up deals  :rofl

Ya, some people here are actually sincere. I should actually be a millionaire with a world full of such folks.

And the funny thing? Ive walked thru villages in 3rd world countries, still in the dark ages, and you couldn't find one person so dumb.
