They stole the idea from the great coach Hayden Fry (GO HAWKEYES!) who came up with the idea of making the visitor's locker room entirely pink from floor to ceiling.

I wish they'd either remove the capacities or just merge the late war arenas.

I'm curious.

I have seen you whine about the above a good 1/2 dozen times now.

Alt monkey pick weenie types are really not much of a threat unless you have poor SA.

Much like the hoard weenies when you get 'em 1 on 1 they tend to die pretty quick and are annoyances, but not really 'threats' per. se..

'sup w/ the obsession?

I just get aliitle annoyed with the whole "avoiding combat" and "promoting combat" arguments I was hearing about the noe guys.

Seems to me that alot of the guys griping about the noe guys avoiding combat are actually just as guilty as the guys they were pointing their fingers at.

Just the other night I was defending a base under attack by a CV, great low alt fight.

But of course there was the incessent buzzing of 190s and 51s etc. diving through the "fight" and climbing back up to basicly untouchable alt. Repeatedly.

Were these guys looking for a "fight" ??

Its not really the new anti noe rules or the alt monkeys, vulchers, spawn campers, that T me off, its the hypocricy of the whole "promoting combat" arguments.

I'll get over it. :D

Those guys are very vulnarable to their own medicine. Climb away from the base (or come from another) and swoop down on them.
More often than not, they are quite target fixated, looking for lower targets.

Maybe, just maybe it's that whole psychology thingy, since orange was first on the list and that was the most played, hardest to get into arena, by changing it to pink HT might be thinking our machismo aversion to pink will cause them to even out a bit more.  Just guessing here..................

Its just a color has nothing to do with being a man.  Only idiots think u can insult cons by making them wear pink.  When everybody plays/wears pink then everybody is the same.

Really?  So our environment (including color) does not affect us?  As an example, colors are carefully chosen now for a place like a mental institucion because the correct color has a calming effect.  Maybe the pink underwear is not an insult per se but it does affect many things including but not limited to taking away their choice of underwear color as another means of controlling those incarcerated.

Think the point is, regardless what the first LW arena is named, it's going to have the larget population the majority of the time because it's first on the list.

I doubt if the sheriff is an idiot,but he has his distractors.I mean making criminals work,and live in tents,and get crappy food.That and Arizona trying to enforce the border laws.You gotta love AZ,and I'm sure pink gets under them social rejects skins!

Pink used to be a manly colour
boys where dressed in it (girls in baby blue), it was meant to be quite masculine colour,  military...red uniforms etc
in the 30`s/40`s/50`s there was a complete reversal of its "meaning"
interesting social fact.....
thought I`d share..

Personally, I think it's a devious experiment, and I can only imagine Skuzzy, Hitech and Pyro giggling like school girls over it every time they pass each other in the hallowed halls of HTC.

We all hear how the first arena listed is the arena of choice for most people.  Yet we also know that you won't find a more macho group of manly men than combat sim pilots.

So which is more powerful?  The desire to click on the first arena listed, or the desire to avoid all hint of unmanliness by avoiding the Pink arena?

I imagine only Geraldo can tell us with certainty...

:D
