i really don't enjoy this lack of sportsmanship.
We use pixel guns to kill pixel people in a pixel game. Pixel spiez will be shot with pixel guns against pixel walls, even if they are ##PIXELCENSORSHIP## AFK!

They're both 5 letters long.  They both have the letter 'h' in their spelling as well.

Burn the witch!  (also 5 letters long with a 'h' in it!)

It's not a coincidence by any means!

if it was a shade account for the purpose of getting kills, then look at who is killing him.  that will tell you who is cheating.  having a second account in itself is not.  having a second account for the purpose of getting you kills is.  I think ht has said that he will remove the score if found.

but most likely it's a new guy that didnt know how to talk back.

for those of you that don't know what shade accounts are, they are simply a second account started by a player in aces high used to score boost and/or spy in aces high. Earlier today there was an account by the callsign of "stash" in mid war. Had no score, no sorties. Would not up and would not respond. with the number of players in there and PMs sent at first thinking it was a new guy in need or direction. We soon came to the conclusion that it was a obvious shade account. We questioned and were careful not to accuse but we knew we were not being told something. All i can say is i work my young but off to get the money needed for the cost of enjoying and playing aces high and i really don't enjoy this lack of sportsmanship.

Mind your own account. Don't be a hater.

You know where this whole Shade Account Conspiracy theory fails miserably?

It fails because the vast majority of players (99.9%) would ostracize anyone who offered up this sort of bull crap; count on it and take that to the bank.

We come into Dale's house and we play Dale's game. The business he has built relies upon the conduct of the people who visit his community. Not for an instance would he tolerate it...nor would 99.9% of the players who enjoy AH tolerate it...and he knows that (smart business).

I have never in the several years of playing AH or AW ever witnessed once...a player 'sharing' the the theoretic fruits of this contemptible practice (I doubt it exists). If it should occur, I would immediately notify AH to preserve the quality of our environment; the majority of the community would do likewise.

What it boils down to is this: it is so extremely rare as to be totally and completely irrelevant and the community would never tolerate it.

Get on with your own game play and quit wasting time thinking about this nonsense.

I can promise you this: if you failed at any endeavor in this game it is simply because you failed; that's life and it sucks if you let it get you down.

I do not; failing is part of living, growing and learning.

And personally I am of thwe opinion that a properly planned and executed mission cant be stopped. Especially in this game.
And even moreso I dont view pointing out where the captured CVs are as being a bad thing. Personally I am of the use em or loose em opinion


BTW a shade account can aso be used by someone who simply wants to fly under two identities.

I dont but i know of those who do. You feel like dropping the extra coin. Its your money.

Oh right... The OP.

Dude, if you spent 1/4 the time you spend seeking out spiez actually trying to improve your ability to play the bloody game, you'd be good enough it wouldn't matter if they did find your mission, you'd be able to take them on rather than whining on the boards.

Do you ever read the BBs?  Score padding using a shade, friend or squaddie actually happens with some regularity.  And then of course there's spying.

Do a search and enlighten yourself.

How diabolical.  The shade had the foresight, months in advance, to set up a dummy account on the BBS so when he started to spy, he would have already set the precedent of being an active player.  This is what the spies in this game have come to.   Burn em all!!

I don't think Stash cheats or uses a shade account.

He flies a bit like me in that he will spend a long time studying the dar bar behavior and accurately predict where a high buff might appear at 34k feet.

Then he's there to kill it.

I've also run into him searching for CVs when they were hidden off map and flying very long distances to kill map leaving dweebs with extreme prejudice.

Worse than any so called shade account is a player who comes to the bulletin board ripe with paranoia willing to violate any forum posting rule in order to express such paranoia.

I'll have to talk to HiTech about removing paranoia from the game coad.  The feature seems to be problematic, at best.

I am sure the two week vacation from the board will be enough time for HiTech to finish it up.
