I like y'alls little LTAR names ~ with the R word at the end.  They're very adorable. Most of them don't sound very mean though ~  Recon does sound a little meaner than Radio though. :D

I've always been attentive to y'alls names ~ since I always scroll through to look for my father when I log on ~ and his name is next to y'alls names if he's on. :)

Messiah's response was partially incorrect, because as Bronk pointed out, "Roger" and "Wilco" are two different Brevity Codes that are sometimes used together in response to a 'directive' radio call.

In this case, LTARecon's 'message' was only informative, not directive, so a simple "Roger" in response acknowledging receipt of message would have sufficed (though you could argue an 'implied' directive to use the new handle in his message, but that's a bit of a stretch as there is no associative chain of command allowing one to give orders to the other, even by inference). 

"Wilco" added after the "Roger" when given an order (directive) means "will compy" or will carry out that order immediately as understood.

My favorite was always LTARget -- Pronounced "El Target".  That sounds all kinds of mean . . .

I hear he would have really Latinned it up and used LTARgeto, as in "El Targeto" -- but didn't want to be known as LTAR ghetto.  That's the rumor, anyway.  Although in hindsight, it may have made him sound even meaner.


Wonder what ever happened to the guy . . .  :noid

The point wasn't to be "way too serious".  The point was to discuss and learn about something most of us in AH enjoy - WWII aircraft, combat flying, ACM, flying in general, military history, the military, tactics, strategy and any mechanics or techniques associated with any and all of the previous.

In my original post -- and if you did not know already -- were you perceptive enough to 'learn' that those standard words used during radio calls are known as "Brevity Codes"?  Or that "wilco" was shorthand for "will comply"?  Well, if you didn't know before, you do now.  And in doing so, though you may not know it, you have again fulfilled one of the three, critical and imperative Prime Objectives Of Life.

Aces high was about having a laugh for me in a make believe airplane not being a condescending nerd on a bbs  :lol true learning about the airplanes and history was also a fun part of the game, and while I know of the brevity code and what its purpose is. I did not see the point in learning it all as it would have no use for me in game. I must say I laugh at how seriously you take all this "critical and imperative Prime Objectives Of Life" well thanks for teaching me! The bit you put about 'ACM' also makes me laugh from any encounter I've had with you I didn't come away feeling impressed in any way shape or form! Maybe you only put this ACM knowledge into practice with well educated types such as yourself ?! :lol

Well, like most people who post, I'm just chatting away, mostly about nothing, in a manner I find enjoyable.  Generally, I'm not out to insult or take serious issue with anyone, unless someone else prod's the fire first.

Since I've never seen anyone named 'Pervert' in the game, I have no idea who you are, so I have no comment as to your ACM.  I've always found it curious why people would have one name in game, and another on the boards.  Too hide their identity for some reason?
Anyway, since your earlier response seemed to have a problem with people discussing obscure historical military facts, calling us 'too serious', which is actually a major passtime of people on this forum, I sort of assumed you were more towards the 'newb' end of the spectrum, at least as far as what goes on in the forum.  Hence, my faceteous comments about learning.  Silly me.  Your obviously some superduper, 'Dark Shadow', uber pilot who can't lighten up.  Who was that masked man?  Ignore the man behind the curtain!  :rofl
Also, since I didn't know who you were and yo

If you original comments towards me were meant to be interrupted as facetious you did a bad job putting that over to me despite the huge bank of smileys which you now use in your post to make it seem 'light hearted' :D. Me posting a stupid film of a batman and robin clip that was related to the subject was a better example of something that was facetious.
What is more likely is "I sort of assumed you were more towards the 'newb' end of the spectrum" and you thought you'd give me a dressing down  :D.
And now in this post your attempting to paint me in a too serious 'condescending' light, wasn't that my description for you??  :rofl don't make me bring
out the © signs  :rolleyes:
I have nothing too hide my name was the same in game as it is here ©®.

Fred

Actually, after checking, it seems we have engaged in the LW twice, based on kills shown last tour, both probably at around the same time.  One for him, and one for me.  Apparently, in shooting him down as much as he did me, my ACM was so unimpressive that he remembered me.  And his ACM and combat prowess was so great that I don't even remember his name.

With that out of the way, this is enough jib jab for me.  Pervert has mistakenly taken the tone and intention of my posts as something they were not.  That is my fault because it is the responsibility of the sender of a communication to make sure he is correctly understood.  It seems I have done a bad job of that, including my subsquent posts on the subject, which haven't corrected the problem.

So, I'll just end this exchange by saying that Pervert has misunderstood, to some significant degree, what I was trying to do.  I had no maliceous intent whatsoever, and was actually trying to be helpful in a funny and offbeat way.  On his part though, it is hard to communicate with someone if they are looking for insults in everything you say.

Fini  :cool:

But we know that not true don't we  :uhoh

With that 'out of the way' I'll accept the fact that your intentions were not meant as I had interrupted them. I too am tiring of this jib jab!

So I'll just end this exchange by saying its hard too communicate with someone who is completely delusional.

The end. :aok

Post by: Sloehand on December 31, 2008, 10:24:10 PM
Geez, you really are paranoid aren't you.  I only looked to see if I had ever encountered you because I didn't recognize your name from the arenas, but you inferred that you knew me by alluding to my 'bad' ACM.  I found only one tour where we obviously engaged because each of us had a kill on the other, which in my book indicates nothing about anyone's skill one way or the other. 
Not a big deal, but you see to be determined to get in a last insult, so enjoy yourself.
