Title: Remove kills landed in DA!
Post by: RumbleB on March 14, 2009, 01:19:31 PM
A serious suggestion. Maybe it would prompt certain people to fight instead of skirting n picking kills in their niks n spixteens to proudly land 2.

new players seem to be wowed by these acm-less pseudo-skillers flying around in their uber rides and landing. then they quickly follow suit and it's a vicious cycle..

I think maybe an edit to this.
Get rid of the stats page in the DA, no more ego involved.

I was tring to make a remark about what you said Steve, and your point has no comback to it, becuase it's so true.

Comeback? What is this, ultimate keyboard championships? Wtf. It's just a suggestion which would improve fight quality. I guess if someone enjoys sitting around making snide remarks then that's their problem :)

Ahh, you can't fix anything in there. It's a sad state - had one guy accuse me of cheating because he couldn't hit me while I was dancing around his Tempest. After I shot him down, he promptly HOed me on his next possible chance while I was busy with someone else.

Not going back there for a while.

They should do away with stats along with the kill messages. Only stat you really need to know is did you just die or not. :P

You must not venture their often eh? Yes,  every two minutes someone lands 2 kills in a tempest, Chog or spixteen and is then wtg'd by their squad on "all ch". Also their are mega squads in the DA aswell.

Thats another thing I don't understand, DA Squads. I've met many cool people in there that are main worthy but fly in DA squads only.

I haven't found one person in those two particular DA squads who's actually going to push me to the edge. They gimp themselves by hording up and flying dweeb rides.

Here's the real kicker though:
They are not in the Squad DUELLING league. A DUELLING ARENA squad not in the Duelling league :huh
Absurd :D

In fact, I doubt they actually duel. They just mass it up. Still, they're not my concern.. they just provide cannon fodder and maybe one day they'll come good...  :noid  :rofl

No I really don't.  Not since it  wasn't a dueling arena any longer.

To quote from a different thread..

It's gotten so bad in there, that once a person landed 5 in a temp, and after a couple of minutes said, "No love for 5 kills?", cuz no one wtg'd him.  :rofl

We should just do away with everything.

No stats, no chatbox, no runways...nothings.

Just a bunch of rv8's that immediately spawn and fly in circles.  Unlimited fuel of course, wouldn't want to offend anyone.

Heck, I think we should get PAID to fly aces high.  Why compete and pay to compete...that's so...dunno - American. 

The American way is NOT working.  We need a socialist movement like this. 

"For the common good of ALL the people!" will replace "in God we trust".

On the front, we'll put Joker's mug on the coin and on the back, the AH logo. 

The inscription on the back will read "You're all winners!"

 :huh

Lets just do away with your ability to post.
Congrats on the post though, I'm sure you thought you were being so incredibly clever that you just kept adding line and line chuckling to yourself.

What does landing kills in the DA and Attaboy's have to do with competition?  You know you one the fight, or lost.  You need your name in lights to legitimise it?  No one is doing away with fights or the reason to fight.  Mostly just doing away with the "reason" to land.  Ego. 

If we were making this a "socialist, feel good movement" they everybody would get their names in lights.


Congrats on the post though, ....


See?  RumbleB gave you some praise.  Make your posting all the more worthwhile, doesn't it? 

 :rofl
