um hitech?

lol

Hate it when that happens. You were either "mass" reported by the folks in the arena, or by a moderater. I'm guessing you know what put you in time out. Fess up :devil
-
Hitech doesn't handle the reports - Skuzzy does. Next time don't use foul langage on text or vox :)
The ban lasts 8 days, consider it a vacation.
-
This is also not the place to try and get answers, if you have questions about the circumstances regarding a chat/vox mute email or call HTC.
-
um hitech?
Do I sense another squeaker rage "I quit!" thread coming soon?
In any event, if you were chat banned it was for good reason.
ack-ack

becuase of fooling around on squad vox?
so now we cant say anything bad about the bish or ban...lol

are you using the red squad label in vox or are you using a channel #?
Skuzzy told me once that when you are using the red squad tag in vox or typing on squad text, that's the only truly private conversation one can have short of PMs. :cheers:

Normally I would not post this, but you did post the following on a public channel in the game.
Here is what you said on channel 200, which caused you to lose your privs:
CTARDS OUT OF 214
VTARDS*
HEADING TO A239
NOE INB TO 239 OUT OF 214
i love calling out NOE missons MONOboom
stupid hordes
try and launch NOE bish il give your position away like that
The loss of privs stands.
As a suggestion, if you do not want this to be aired on the forums, you might try contacting us directly in the future.

Olds you did the AcesHigh Community a favour pointing out a horde mission publically.
Giving them away so there is active opposition, is promoting combat.
:salute
Old's chat ban is in direct opposition to promoting combat and therefore, he should have his chat back.
-
Olds, I look forward to your response. After considerable thought I, for the life of me, cannot imagine how you might think that your recent actions add to this game in any way sir.
Thank you

Please sir, you cannot be serious. The Devils Brigade was playing the game by the rules in an activity that can be apposed within the rules. Olds, simply put, broke the rules. Think for a moment how gameplay might be if this activity was not discouraged, what the atmosphere would be when playing.
-
The game's a cesspool with the hordes, giving away their missions gives them something to shoot at.
99% of the time, land is lost because not enough defenders can be roused in enough time and steamrolling ensues.
I thought AcesHigh was about promoting combat, after all the only rule in AcesHigh is; "Don't be a dick."
Using 200 to promote combat is aiding gameplay. Being in a horde to knock out Fighter Hangers is being a dick, preventing combat.

Yes, but they don't think they're being dicks by droping hangars. They're promoting combat in other areas of the map! By you not allowing them to steamroll your base, you are being a dick to them and hindering combat in other sectors, and spreading the fight thin with too many options of airbases to up from. :salute

Hmmm.....
From Skuzzy to Olds:

They were laughing at you, not with you.

This is the first time I have seen a spy punished in this game. I :salute you Skuzzy.
There are already enough ways to take care of a horde without resorting to spying. I know, it's one of my favorite past times.
-
good call by the mod :aok
-
I Fing love Skuzzy.
You are the Man.
Haha Olds, that's just too funny. Straight owned !!!
-
But in the process he ruined gameplay for alot of people.
:lol So now you can lose chat for messing with the bad guys? Had he done it over a PM, squad chan, or phone it would have been ok?
Am I confused here? When I can;t find a fight I will call goon ready to drop over a field to get someone to take off. I could lose chat for that?
-

Only if there really was a goon dropping over the field and he reported you. Ratting out non-existent goons should be fine.

LOL! Olds got smacked down twice.

Ok...this thread rocks...and Skuzzy is Lord over all he surveys. Skuzzy's response is evidence that the BBS is filled generously with BS.
Take caution in posting future whine threads because if most knew half of what they say they know, they'd know about twice as much as actually do and it appears the people that actually KNOW about such things are going to call your donut out!

Why would you bother someone when they are on vacation?

There is a simple solutions to resolve this problem, spying, do away with 200. If you want to chat with someone on the other teams, to salute them or tease them or whatever, you can type their name in a text box and chat direct. 200 hundered is a problem wating to happen. De tune 200.

dood, 200 is why i join most nights. it's entertaining as hell, sometimes i just sit in the tower and watch it scroll. I still remember a few months back when they thing about 911 steel being hot months after it happened. that kept me laughing for well over an hour. it was hilarious.

It’s spelt dude, not dood. “Entertaining as hell” Really, hell is entertaining, how so? I, not i. Please explain “I still remember a few months back when they thing about 911 steel being hot months after it happened.” Have no idea what you are attempting to communicated with that statement. I’m guessing it’s something to do with 911 and some how you think it’s funny. Laughing for an hour?
If you would like to make another attempt.

I wouldn’t expect that HTC to control things that they have no control over. There are always cheaters, I’m just saying that in my 11 years in the game, 200 has been responsible for more lost privileges, display of childish behavior and poor sportsmanship then any thing else I can think of in the game. To me, it adds nothing of value to the game. I don’t use it.
HTC has mentioned how the arean becomes toxic as numbers grow. That toxic level is on display in 200. HTC does have the power to do away with 200.

no it's dood, havent you seen "the island"?
as for entertaining well like it makes me laugh. and the hot steel thing was argued for well over an hour. it was epic. god thing there were no moderators around, or perhaps they couldnt stop laughing either. I am just gonna say it included you.

they disabled channel "All" and made 200 but the trick is.......if you want to tune thats ur choice no one is forcing you to tune

I agree with you, no one is forced to tune 200, but what is the purpose of 200? How does it promote game play? I’d say based on my experience in the game it adds very little. That it hurts the game, much more then it does to promote it. I’ve seen new two weekers ridiculed and belittled. I’ve seen it cause hurt feelings and insight childish behavior resulting is loss of chat privileges. It’s the only real area of toxic chat that I believe might be a reason for not retaining new players. Much of the chat on it is hurtful.
It may be worth while in a tight market for HTC to experiment. If new players were un able to be tune 200, I wonder if more would become subscribers.

It promotes game play by allowing people to talk to each other and it does not hurt the game at all. As pointed out, if you don't want to listen to it don't tune to Channel 200.

I doubt Noob two-weekers even find 200. They can't even find thier country channel whilst giving away thier position and other info on the Help Channel. Take 200 away something else will fill the void. :noid

I suppose by arean you mean arena? You must be posting from a cell phone like semp.
You do not use 200 so your saying nobody else should? Do you still fly in the arenas? I hope so... would hate for eveyone else to leave the arenas because you are not participating.
Sounds different when the boot is on the other foot..... doesn't it. :aok

I am not saying that no one should use 200 just because I don’t use it. I’m commenting on my own observation of player behavior on 200 with regard to new members and that it has been my experience over the years that 200 is a source of poor behavior, poor sportsmanship ridicule and belittling new players, that leads the main cause for loss of chat privileges.
HTC has commented on what they perceived as toxic level of play within an arena as numbers would grow. I’m guessing that behavior on 200 was a good measure of that toxic level, how else would HTC know or measure?
What I questioned was why it was felt to be necessary to have 200 and would it be wise that only subscribers have access to 200. As for New players giving away there position on the Help channel, Help could be limited to just your own side, like country or room or all the other comm. Channels.
Just trying to grow the numbers on a game that I still enjoy.

200 can also be a good source of friendly banter, chatting with friend's on the countries, etc. It's not 100% negative, it's a tool, like many things how someone uses it reflects a lot more on the person than the medium. It's unfortunate that this tool can at times be used by tools. There's a reason it's 200 and not channel 1, if you don't like it you can de-tune and it goes away.
:)

belittling new players, that leads the main cause for loss of chat privileges.
I think someone got picked on... lol

I agree with you 100%. I was just questioning it's value in game play. I don't use it, so I seldom monitor it. The only times I know about it is when someone loses their chat privileges because of. I’ve seen it used many times to belittle and ridicule. I was just suggesting to promote new player retention perhaps only subscribers should have access to it.

What your asking for is the complete removal of a channel to communicate between countries I.E. channels 200 - 299. Not just the removal of 200.

Wouldn't know it as I don't monitor it. Been here 11 years playing the game and I still stink at it. I'm the first to admit that I suck.
What I was commenting on was that I have seen new players, two weekers leave the game because of the conduct of some on 200. I'm suggesting that new players until they become subscribers should not have access to 200. Would be simple to test. Say for a test period, a new player not a subscriber, can not tune 200. see if retention goes up

And that communications between countries is needed because? Let me be clear. I have seen over the years a number of good people doing stupid things on 200. Cyber bullying, belittling, ridiculing . I’ve seen new player give up because of it. I was just suggesting that perhaps the new player might not be able to tune 200 or if necessary any of the country to country communications channels . That HTC could monitor if retention of new players goes up . If not you can change it back.
-
I have had friends over the years who have played on other sides.. It was nice to be able to chat with them... not for "intel" or crap like that.. Other than that, the signal to noise ratio is so low on 200 I just don't tune to it.. How about just something in the intro stating the 99% of what is said on 200 is BS and let them decide... You have a choice to tune it out...

See below for inline comments...
"And that communications between countries is needed because?" You have friends on all sides, want to ask "how'd you do that", poke them with a stick, etc.
"Let me be clear. I have seen over the years a number of good people doing stupid things on 200. Cyber bullying, belittling, ridiculing." Welcome to the world of online annonymity - it happens everywhere.
"I’ve seen new player give up because of it." Then they are too thin-skinned to play online games - or games in general.
"I was just suggesting that perhaps the new player might not be able to tune 200 or if necessary any of the country to country communications channels." The fact that HTC allows FULL ONLINE ACCESS to everything in the game for a two-week trial is one of the best things about the game. Would you buy a new car if the salesman only let you drive it around the parking lot?

Yes, and with my suggestion you would still be able to do just that. Chat with friends on 200 and catch up I’m suggesting that new players that are not subscribers not have access to country to country communications. That would protect them from the toxic comments that can take over 200 at times. Once they become paying members they can then enjoy 100% of the abuse on 200.
-
I switched from knights to rooks after a year and nobody said anything to me, I must be a horrible spy.
-
"And that communications between countries is needed because?" You have friends on all sides, want to ask "how'd you do that", poke them with a stick, etc.
You could still PM or direct text with them and chat with them on 200 as long as both of you were subscribers.
"Let me be clear. I have seen over the years a number of good people doing stupid things on 200. Cyber bullying, belittling, ridiculing." Welcome to the world of online annonymity - it happens everywhere.
I think it drives away new players, it has to hurt HTC’s bottom line.
"I’ve seen new player give up because of it." Then they are too thin-skinned to play online games - or games in general.
That’s your opinion and again it’s got to hurt HTC’s bottom line.
"I was just suggesting that perhaps the new player might not be able to tune 200 or if necessary any of the country to country communications channels." The fact that HTC allows FULL ONLINE ACCESS to everything in the game for a two-week trial is one of the best things about the game. Would you buy a new car if the salesman only let you drive it around the parking lot?
Would you buy the car from him if he called you a idiot and the worlds worst driver. That you had no business trying to drive one of his new cars, that perhaps you needed to read the owners manual completely before attempting to drive any of his cars, that you have no skill at parking and should just leave now.

That you had no business trying to drive one of his new cars, that perhaps you needed to read the owners manual completely before attempting to drive any of his cars, that you have no skill at parking and should just leave now.</snip>
HiTech didn't call anyone an idiot...... for your comparison to hold water you'd have to say some other driver that bought a car from this salesman.
So if some other driver that bought a car from this salesman called me an idiot.... I'd still buy from this salesman.

:lol So now you can lose chat for messing with the bad guys? Had he done it over a PM, squad chan, or phone it would have been ok?
Am I confused here? When I can;t find a fight I will call goon ready to drop over a field to get someone to take off. I could lose chat for that?
I remember an incident few years back a guy in a mission ratted it out on 200. Where the mission participants reported it and then got 8days themselves for doing so. Now participants are rewarded for doing so hmm. Seems alittle wishy washy on the ruling to me. Punish some while rewarding others, make it a rule or not. Thumbs down to skuzzy, on this one. :confused: :bolt:

HTC has commented on what they perceived as toxic level of play within an arena as numbers would grow. I’m guessing that behavior on 200 was a good measure of that toxic level, how else would HTC know or measure?
What I questioned was why it was felt to be necessary to have 200 and would it be wise that only subscribers have access to 200. As for New players giving away there position on the Help channel, Help could be limited to just your own side, like country or room or all the other comm. Channels.
Just trying to grow the numbers on a game that I still enjoy.
It's pretty simple; if ch200 bother's you then turn it off. I use it to see who's fighting who, and the witty banter. Not, you bombed my tank noobz, I'm elite f-18 fighter pilotz hotard, ace pilot,picktard,hordetard, swinging E-pens BS. Take the good with the bad i guess.

For someone who doesn't tune to 200 how do you know all these people leaving because of it???

You’ve lost me, I was resonding to ImAdot not HiTech.
Would you buy a new car if the salesman only let you drive it around the parking lot?
My point being that the texting on 200 does at time become toxic and I feel it is one of the reasons some many people over the years have run a foul of the rules and lose text privileges. I then suggested that perhaps more new players would be retained and become subscribers if they were not exposed to the toxic texting on 200.

You are right, I don’t use 200 during our squad night missions, however, I have from time to time monitored the channel and I do talk to new players and new members of our squad. I’ve been in the game over 10 years. I am generalizing to some extend but many of our squad members have made comments that showed they did not receive the friendliest of receptions from the general community. Some commented on our squad policy of de-tuning 200.
Please keep in mind I'm not suggesting that 200 be done away with. I'm only limiting its use to paying members. You all can continue to use or misuse 200 as you currently do, I’m just suggesting that new players on the two week trial not be permitted to tune 200, There by avoid the toxic environment. Perhaps that might just help transition the two week trial member to a paying customer and help grow the community.

Yes, you are confused. What he did was to rat out a mission for his own side. That's spying is what he did. That's not the same as you looking for a fight so you announce while over an nme field that you are about to drop troops to get a nme to up for a fight.

Question is; Did he 'rat' on the side he spends most of his time fighting for?

the thing is, a noob 2 weeker.. how does he even find out about channel 200.. and if he is a true noob and not a tool looking to talk crap with everyone, why would he tune it to start with?
and then he can't handle it so quits? :rolleyes:

When it's done to intentionally grief other players because you're a spoiled little kid that craves attention. You got the attention you craved in the form of a chat ban. Try and spin how you like, you deserved what you got for acting like a twit. Do us all a favor and follow through with your next squeaker raged induced "I quit!" promise.
ack-ack

Same way a lot of people learn about it, someone on country say's "Look at what so and so just posted on 200"

Quoted for truth.
Repetition on the part of Cutlas/Olds as well. Follow through with those indignant threats!

Just as a refresher...
Normally I would not post this, but you did post the following on a public channel in the game.
Here is what you said on channel 200, which caused you to lose your privs:
CTARDS OUT OF 214
VTARDS*
HEADING TO A239
NOE INB TO 239 OUT OF 214
i love calling out NOE missons MONOboom
stupid hordes
try and launch NOE bish il give your position away like that
The loss of privs stands.
As a suggestion, if you do not want this to be aired on the forums, you might try contacting us directly in the future.

You ruined the gameplay for alot people in the game.

Yes, but someone had to do the .report thing or Skuzzy would not have known to do the review of the text. I thought I read somewhere that it was a squad member that reported him.

im sure they ruin alot more people gamel.

I would prefer a system of -1 any time some one complained about grammar or spelling.
I am absolutely not joking, complaining of someones grammar or spelling on a bbs is very rude, and akin to some one like me complain of your complete ineptitude of the ability to create something like AH ,your lack of understanding of basic calculus and differential equations, and your lack of ability to exsplane (not intentional miss spelling after 5 tries of a non spell checker match I gave up) in detail concepts like special relativity, and the concept of different realities across multiple realities and the similarity to the synchronization systems of AH to that of GPS.
I don't vent very often but grammar and spelling nazie's really pmo.

And that communications between countries is needed because? Let me be clear. I have seen over the years a number of good people doing stupid things on 200. Cyber bullying, belittling, ridiculing . I’ve seen new player give up because of it. I was just suggesting that perhaps the new player might not be able to tune 200 or if necessary any of the country to country communications channels . That HTC could monitor if retention of new players goes up . If not you can change it back.
You are taking this game way too seriously if you believe this would be a good thing. Some of us just like to shoot the breeze with folks we've come to know over the years in the game. Going back to Airwarrior, I learned more from talking to the guys I was fighting on the other side then I ever did on country channel.

If the reporters got a suspension it was due to someone calling out on the public channels to report someone. Ganging up and mass reporting someone is about as cheesy use of the .report mechanism as there can be and it will not be tolerated.

My suggestion in no way changes your ability to do just that. All I'm saying is that the guy on the free trial until they become a subscriber not have the ability to tune 200. Everyone can continue to send and receive text from any and everyone they wish to, except the non subscriber. You will still be able to talk to the guys you are fighting as long as they are subscribers.
