If you see a little kid out on the street talking in a high voice (your own son, perhaps?), would you go over to him and begin teasing him about his high voice, and how his balls haven't dropped? I sincerely hope not. Just because this is a game does not make such behaviour acceptable over vox.
EDIT: Removed names to comply with rule #8. I'll just say that the worst player I saw today is ranked among the 'top' five in the game.

Meaning you think squeaker-bashing is just fine?
And yeah, this was a rant. But an exceptionally well-deserved one. Also, yes I have sent the film in.

Agreed making fun of kids as an adult is low.

No I wouldn't. That being said... if my son was being a pain in the arse to every adult within earshot he'd get a talking to. That is just me though, some people don't mind there kid's throwing a tantrum in the middle of a mall.

I don't think squeekers get as much grief over their voices as they do transmitting non-stop and N00bishness. Last night a knight let his kid play on his account--much to the dismay of knights who had to put up with it. He transmitted (squeek--squeek---squeek) nonstop, shot at friendlies, and seem to have no concept of the game. It would be far better if AH parent players monitored the gameplay of their kids.
Get ready---the Holiday Squeeker Season in underway until the week after new years.

Today's squeakers can be next year's players.(read as paying customer too)
With the natural attrition of the player base, it's a good thing to get new players.
Tonyjoey would own anyone in this thread and he was a squeaker.
Exeption: The Generals. Since friendly conversation with them usually just leads to the General calling you a moron, bash them mercilessly. They move on eventually anyway, for the most part.

"Squeaker" has more to do with an attitude than how high an octave their voice is.

No I wouldn't. However I wouldn't be forced to share a hobby with him either and endure his childish behavior.
Try and understand some folks would prefer to participate in hobbies without children being involved. Some children would prefer to participate in hobbies where no adults are involved. When I was a youth we didn't get involved in the same games with adults and vice versa. We didn't want to and they didn't want to. The internet has pretty much given us a situation where the generations can't escape each other to compete or participate among themselves so you get these clashes.
-
You know there is a way those "squeakers" can change their voice in windows and make it a deep voice if they wanted to, so I don't think those that get bashed is a octave thing as much as it is an attitude.
Not long ago I went to a special events thing that had a "sqawker" as the cm and I assure if I go to another one and that individual ("I AM IN CHARGE, AND THEY PUT ME IN CHARGE SO THEY HAVE CONFIDENCE IN ME, AND I AM GOING TO VOLUNTEER IN THE FUTURE SO I WILL BE IN CHARGE A LOT IN THE FUTURE, SO GET USED TO IT".); is in charge I will just leave and go back to the main.

Shifty I have to agree with you on this , its ( The Clash of the Generations ) a new happening in our time and it all comes down to how we behave and or accept others in a wide age range .
Nutte :salute

dmdchief ; I remember that event . It stands out perfectly in my mind . This individual had supporters on both sides of the issue good or bad . I will say this though that kid had a tough job of riding herd on a pack of adults who recoiled at the mere thought of him doing the job . But in the end he stuck it out , and that is more than most kids would do .

And the difference between the squeeker General and the 45yo General is exactly what? Both get squelched by me.
Anyone who would pick on a noob just cause he/she was young is a schmuck and has no place among us. But there is a difference between humor and meaness.
Lately tho its been the older Generals tieing up the Vox with their ongoing life story and AH expereince. I guess they never heard of a private channel.

Me as a father of 2. No way id let my kids play this game.There is no way HT will ever stop the bashing on vox or text.Unless he gets rid of both.
I always thought an "anything goes" arena would be good.

Tangently related is the abuse on two-weekers, usually squeakers, wherein we ( the old guard) go and kill them over and over; all the while poking fun at them. I try mightily to not run-up my k/d ratio on these guys, give (pathetic) advise and have even switched sides to better communicate or even outright defend (again, pathetic as I might be as a stick) them so that they CAN become the players of tomorrow. I really do think harassing them on vox or chat is the lowest. Take a chance and be a mentor; you'll get more satisfaction when they start killing your arch-nemisis on a regular basis than if you kill them for two weeks and never see them again.

Exactly, the young son of one of our squadies plays fairly often, a truly delightful young gentleman, and funny as all get out too.

Werd.
My youngest is following his older brother and has begun live.
I told him "This is an adult squadron". That's all he needed.
Plenty of adults playing that are more annoying than plenty of the kids.

Before my microphone jack on my sound card died, I used this program (probably the same one BluKitty uses) that allows you to change your voice and one of the selections was 'baby' and was using that vox effect one day for a couple of hours. It annoyed the crap out of my squadron mates.

No, one of them was acting like an absolute jerk towards a squeaker. The squelch & ignore feature would have been far better practice, but was evidently above this guy's maximum maturity level.

Being one of that names I have to say: What you did is worse than explicitly naming the culprit. You say you are not naming him because of the rules... but at the same time you are indirectly naming 5 players and put the suspicion on everyone of them

I have a daughter who on occassions will start playing when I'm away from the keyboard. And yes she will shoot at friendlies. Fortunate for those in Aces High she can't fly worth a damn. There is one big difference between her and some adults though. She knows its just a game. So far my reputation as low as it might be has survived. Unfortunately the continuous non stop talking can not be squelched at the source.

Yeah, I play the game.

It had to be pacerr. Just had to be...
And Ack-Ack... LOL.

Personally,it's not the pitch of voice that's irritating. It's the non-stop chatter from one,or between a couple of them,not realizing that there are other players in the area.We don't need updates every 5 seconds about what you doing.Then, Right in the middle of a fight someone wants to know how to drop bombs,or something that should be learned in the TA or offline. Learn tactics off line,and learn radio etiquette.

Or just take away their vox privileges for a while if they don't tone it down.

QFT on both accounts. No one should have to go through the trouble of squelching regardless of the age of the offender...it just so happens that some people haven't taught their kids any better than to be an annoyance to others in any manner. You don't want your kids offended, discipline them so other people don't have to.
On the other hand...many of the so called adults in the arenas are more annoying than any 5 year old imaginable. Try setting a positive example for the squeekers...shining your cyber testicles in a video game with a couple of hundred other people is not a positive example.

I get a kick out of seeing chatter from "squeakers" like the first one. We should all be so lucky as to get that immersed in this game.
The second one is just plain make me chuckle.
And as for the third style, I would rather see silly questions as opposed to most of the "normal" smack talk, bashing, and rants that happen just as much. And the solution for those is the same as the other, a simple squelch is far more effective than making an arse out of ones self.

In AW DAMND-BM left his flackpanzi sitting on the end of the runway and went to the bathroom. His 6 year old daughter hopped into his seat and shot at every airplane that spawned a few feet away from her for the next 5 minutes. Many sqweekers are just trying to learn from the adults around them by emulating them without the benefit of knowing how everything works. The overwhelming majority of us just hopped into this game and never went for "How Everything Works Lessons" in the TA. What makes us so special to denigh everyone after us that privlage?
Thus the Sqweekers never learn the golden rule in AH: Adults can act rotten, Sqweekers(children) are to be seen and not heard no matter how badly the adults are acting.
So with the way we act on range and ch200, why do you expect sqweekers to behave better than us adults? And why is our normal adult ROTTEN conduct any better than theirs? Thats what they are inundated with the moment they first ever pop into a tower. You guys make enough POSTS in this Forum to headline each others ROTTEN conduct. Do as I say not as I act come to mind guys? But, hey, the littel cuties are only acting like the other people playing the game, and they are all taught adults are right so act like your elders.....
Quite a few of us want the game to be our exclusive adult only nudi bar with a "XXXX" rating. Most conveniently forget the owner of the bar never said it's rating was any lower than "G". And you become proportionantly indignant in this Forum when ever the owner reminds you through moderator power of the limits to ROTTON adult behavior. And again for the (millionth x trillionth) time the question is: What makes your $15 a month better than a sqweekers $15 a month in a family freindly entertainment center?
So gentelmen, all the rhetoric and canards aside. Lets take a vote and send it as a petition to the owner of this entertainement center rather than villify CHILDREN for the umpteenth time.
How many of you want a minimum age restriction enforced on all players in the game to protect OUR adult behavior from THE children?

Lord knows our nightly conduct as adults could get an R rating for this game if whoever puts those ratings on PC Box games were to logon and listen to VOX and the text buffer for a week. You think any of those childrens parents do that? Heck, BiPolar won't even let his children near us and we all know the infamous BiPolar of the muppets. Now thats BAD for a family freindly entertainment center don't ya think fellas?

Agreed making fun of kids as an adult is low.

How OLD do you have to be to understand bashing people and the need to define other people as less than yourself with derogitory naming descriptors is more about yourself than them? We supposed adults play on EXACTLY the same level as all those sqweekers getting bashed here abouts. The only difference between us is: Do as I say, not as I do, because I'm a GRUP and know......

Bustr, I've seen you bash players plenty. As has waystin, the nicest guy in Aces High. Do you guys ask the ages of players you bash before you go off on them? Even the word 'bash' is entirely subjective and has a wide range for interpretation.
I'm playing devil's advocate here, but seriously, what are the age cut offs for criticizing somebody?

this is a prime example of an admitted adult acting as mature as a five year-old in a blood sugar drop fit. Why not take the person you shot down aside and show then HOW to fight instead of ridiculing them?

I have tried to take the person aside numerous times, even one point took him to the DA to show him the maneuvers that caused his demise. If you've ever encountered Nisr and his constant whines on open channel, it's rather difficult to teach someone something when they insist that you've gamed the game or cheated in some fashion. Some people bring on the insults themselves, Nisr being a prime example.
I recall a few temper tantrums on open channel coming from you in the MW arena, in fact you even used to try and bait people so you could have an excuse to .report them.

Anyone who asks me a question I will always give them an informed answer as to what happened and why they died. I will even send film to anyone who requests. As for going to the DA/TA with them to work on things at that very moment...that depends on my mood. I don't pay $15/mo to spend hours teaching people how to fly in the DA/TA but I will do it from time to time. Most people learn ACM on their own.
Here are the steps to becoming an ace:
Step 1: Film your sorties.
Step 2: When you die to someone better, watch the sortie from yours and his perspectives and see what he did. Think about what you could have done differently, most times you will figure it out no your own but if you absolutely cannot, start a thread in the Help and Training, post the film trimmed down and ask for analysis.
Step 3: Practice 1v1s in the DA with vets who are in there mixing it up at a side base. They will NEVER turn you down. The more the merrier, just make sure you know the rules of engagement.
Step 4: Always be learning from your failures. If you keep doing the same thing wrong over and over again and fail to make an adjustment, you will never get better.

I don't really mind the younger players, and have met alot of them that were very respectable players (like 'stealth', I was amazed to find out how young he was). They are the next generation of flight sim players and we should be welcoming them to our ranks, if it wasn't for the influx of new players, we would all go the way of Atari and become extinct.
My only complaint is, as some of the others have mentioned, the constant play by play on channel from some of them. "I'm going to shoot this guy", "I'm going to turn left", "he's shooting at me"... I think the response from alot of us is to call them squeakers and start bashing them for their age and that's not right especially when comming from an 'adult' who supposedly knows better.
Instead of calling them squeakers, I think it would probably be more productive to tell them specifically what our problem is with them, i.e. "We don't need to know everytime you pull your trigger." would be far more constructive than a "Shut up you stupid squeaker."
Bustr once made an excellent point about the anonimnity of the internet actually intensifying personality, if a person is a dk head in real life, he is doubly so on the internet, that said, I think alot of us sure as hell wouldn't be bashing someone else's kids in person so I'm not sure why it's acceptable to do it in game unless your just a jerk in real life. Give them a break, help them out, tell them to STFU if they talk too much, but don't lower yourself to bashing people because of their age, that's just a nasty way to be to anybody and only serves to lower the standards of the fight sim community.
Act your age in other words, and don't be surprised if the younger players do the same. :aok

I was not trying to vilify you grizz or imply that you are low. I honestly don't know if you bash squeakers and could really care less. I was making a general statement which for some reason every time I make one you seem to think it is directed at you.
You don't need people to set limits on age because I am sure you know what a kid is and you know what an adult is.

Huh? I was replying to your general statement in general terms myself. Just because I quoted your general post does not mean I thought it was directed at me.
And yes I bash players occasionally. Usually they don't have their age atop their CPID so I never really know.

Bustr, I've seen you bash players plenty. As has waystin, the nicest guy in Aces High. Do you guys ask the ages of players you bash before you go off on them? Even the word 'bash' is entirely subjective and has a wide range for interpretation.
I'm playing devil's advocate here, but seriously, what are the age cut offs for criticizing somebody?
Most of my so called bashing is of the flavor: "It took you and 5 freinds to kill me alone, SHEESH.<S>" and some occasions in frustration "grow a pair".....I'm not as elloquent and accomplished as many muppets to my shame. Maybe I should take private lessions in game elocution from you gentelmen. My lack of elocutional ability is equal to my lack of ACM in the game against any of your squad's membership.
Otherwise I'm very aware many players are generations younger than myself and unlike some of the muppets and long time players we both know, I have no previous rapport to judge the impact of opening a conversation with them. Insulting(bashing) a stranger seems a bit like randomly sucker punching someone in a bar. I never aquired a comfort with boy to boy locker room insulting(bashing) nor do I insult(bash) people in the public sphere. It's not my nature or temperment. Though I will dialogue and use syntactic imagery here in this forum from time to time as contextual illustrations.
I've always been impressed with adults who do the right thing in the face of their emotions and never needing to ask other adults what the right thing is. How young is too young is not the real question Grizz. What is the right thing to do as an adult? When did we abrogate that responcibility? I would think $14.95 per month is way too cheap a price for us to abrogate doing the right thing.

Up here in Idaho we shoot squeakers for target practice. "Whistle Pigs" "Squeakers" "Mini Prairie Dogs" whatever you want to call them & we still don't hate them, but I don't like watching them cannibalize the wounded ones dragging them back down the holes. "I'm hit Dad, Save me!", "Stop wiggling & Don't talk while I'm eating!". :x

:headscratch: I really start to wonder why some of these self righteous self serving blow hard holy-er than tho types must continue to act as self appointed moderators for the rest of the player base. Last time I checked we pay out $$ to HTC, let them set the mark, I get really tired of the so called friends of the community feeling like they have to call attention to themselves by pointing out the so-called failings of others, no KID every exploded from any text message on a silly Online game, get over it get over yourselves and play nice move on sheesh :huh

I was witness to the whole thing and the 'top five guy' (and why the rest of us got dragged into this is ridiculous it has nothing to do with rank) was right about the CV and what it was doing and the NOOB (I dont know that he was a kid) wouldnt shutup until the guy your talking about couldnt hold his mouth anymore at which point he was very wrong.
No it wasnt me. :neener:

And just for clarity... Bipolar has it wrong... the SHADE in question had made an obvious flub and given himself away as an experienced player.
But Bipolar knows it all right? Judge and jury. :rolleyes:

BiP was only pointing out the hypocrisy of the holier than thou preacher stance you took with him and I in another thread. If you're going to put yourself on a moral pedestal then be careful what you say and do in the game.

I do watch what I say online oh ignorant one. Like I said the NOOB we are discussing is a shade. Try to keep up.
