It's been an interesting 6 years in AH...Can't say I've actually learned much other than a Video Game can and will drive you nuts if you let it. :rolleyes:..I won't be able to say bye to most of the players in the game I've "flown" with as I
am muted..(probably deserved)I know I will be torn apart by the usual group of Haters on the forum and thats ok. :furious Last night I called alpini13 a "RETARD" I appologize for that... even a retard would have known that what he was doing was Wrong and stopped so the names he actually deserved can't be said on here....His "rank" was allowing him and his Squad to lock up the bish CV and keep it from being used, because they wanted to furball (though there was 2 mid altBases that were plenty close to allow for their private furball) While at the same time the nit cv in same area was being used at freewill to attack bases and even provide puffy ack for the nit side in the furball. After being asked very nicely by many bish including myself. We were told to stuff it.. what are we gonna do about it... He was not going to allow anyone use of the cv. Which is Bullcrap.. If 8, 10, 50 other Players would like to continue doing missions or use the CV's for offense why is it ok for a player to switch side and take control of a cv and Interupt gameplay for the rest of the Bish? Or any side for that matter? Really does it take a rocket scientist to see thats a power play?
He did because he could. Thats a Tard move!
With That said I also have to say in my opinion the Players in AH aside from a few have gotten Much more... Rude.. Inconsiderate to the fact that Its a GAME and we are all here to have fun and escape real life for a few hours
Unwilling to help new players... The atmosphere in the game has gone BAD... If you enjoy playing this game as I once did Try and help Hitech try and help AH be a better player...
There is no "I" in Team.... But there is an "I" in Dick....... Don't be a dick! ITS A VIDEO GAME :joystick:
With all that said... and I'll be crucified for. I wont be renewing my account.. I think I've let this Video Game drive me batty enough. When I lose my cool over something like this its time to quit. I've never been the best at this
Game but I have gotten better... some of you guys(you know who you are)are toooooo good and need to put the game down and get some sun.
My business has expanded we have grown the fleet by another vehicle and 2 more drivers, Also looking into a new location for the shop, as well as putting my house on the market this year I gotta put this addicting game down.
Thanks for all the Fun times <S> Thanks Flatiron... Learned alot from him years ago <S>

:salute

I've flown with you in the DA, bong, SALUTE! No matter what others may say, the game will be less fun without you. good luck with the home and the business.
-
Sorry to see you leaving Bong40.
I was frankly appaled by the conversation last night you speak of.
I heard:
"I don't care about you or the game or what anyone else thinks"
and
"Too bad, its a glitch and we are going to keep doing it"
and
"Well your rank is not high enough, maybe you should learn to game the score so you can control the CV"
pathetic
-
Congratulations on the growing business, Bong40.
-
:salute
We had fun, I have taken an extended break (probably didn't notice) ;) maybe someday we will meet again. I know alot of folks thought you were a jerk, and you were sometimes, bit when it comes down to it you taught me alot and i always had a certain respect for you. See you around Dr. :salute
-
You can't avoid Tards in game or life, they will always be there. :rolleyes:
Report the tard for cheating if you feel that's what he was doing. When the game drives you nuts it may be time to take a break. Then come back and try flying for the ROOKS great bunch of guys there, very little drama and many willing to help.
:salute Slate

Just curious... was your in-game name "Bong" or "Bong40?"

You take it easy Bong, will be back here waiting for you whenever you return, wish you only the best :cheers:

I saw the exchange on 200 and frankly I'm disgusted with how Kommando Nowalty jumped sides takes control of our Cv. Then smart mouths anyone who politely asks them" to turn the CV"
The solution is simple when you jump sides you should lose your rank for 12 hours and this would end this petty crap! Someone deserved to be muted all right"But it wasn't Bong'
-
Wouldn't it be easier to ask that upon switching sides you cannot take control of a CV for 6-12 hours? You have identified an exploitable attribute to CV and reducing the side switching time though.
-
It's the coarseness that took hold and won the day back in 2004 and a bit before.
-
I dont wanna get involved cuz I do not care at all. But I will say, he can do whatever he wants with a CV if he outranks everyone. You take it so seriously like it is the military or something. Speaking of, if Obama wanted any CV to go to Japan to retrieve a particular Honda, you better believe that CV would go straight to Japan. Why? Because Obama outranks everyone...

So it's okay for members of your squadron to act like salamanders and ruin the game play for others just because they have a high score?

If by "ruin the game play" you mean use the carrier to start a battle in a combat game and not take crap from idiots who have other ideas on the propper use for a Carrier Combat Group, then yes.

So you guys get to dictate how others get to play? I guess I missed the memo.

I dont understand why all the bickering. It is very simple, if you do not out rank the person who has the CV you cant do anything about it. He has earned the right to do with it what he pleases. What he does may be lame, stupid, dangerous, smart, witty, tactful, absurd, ludacris, boring, exciting, aggravating, exhilarating, or terrifying but there is nothing you can do about it. End of discussion.

No. The CV rank system is what it is. You have a problem with it then get HTC to change it.

I think you are off to a good start Bong. The game isnt worth your health.
I quit caring a couple years back. My gameplay has suffered horribly, but real life has gotten much better :)
-
Simple thing to do is rank CV commands to players that man the ship guns and PT boats. They usually take better care of the CVs than furballers do.

I like the idea of not being able to contol a CV for some amount of time after switching sides. :aok +1
I lose more and more respect for more and more AH squads every day.
Take a break Bong. Come back later and it will all seem better. :salute

Blame the player all you want. It is their 15 versus yours. The cv system is what it is. If HTC thought it was a big problem I'm sure it would be changed by now.

In 2 weeks we get that update cant miss that.
take care bud :salute

Sorry to see you go Bong.
F.A.R.T. will be missed.

ack-ack
No the purpose of the rank system is to allow a higher ranked individual to dictate what the CV does, or what it does not do.
If it were not meant to work that way then it would't. If it is perceived to be impolite or somehow uncouth then that is the problem of the individual who thinks in that manner, not mine or my squads.

How do people get so worked up over a game?

Not at all, but apparently a KN member having control of the CV gives anybody else carte blanche to squeak on 200 or the BBs when we dont play their way. I dont understand the complaints from those who would rather use CVs to mount some stealth mission or hide it in the corner of the map. How can you take a person who avoids combat seriously? If they want the CVs so friggin bad, they should up their score. You dont see any of us complain when we can't get a carrier, we'll just go furball elsewhere.

Honestly, it is not worth raging over. . .just find a new fight.
-
Is this something new or basically the same stuff that's been happening for ten years or so?
-
I had this argument years back - Started like this:
"Has control of CV"
"Player A comes in with lower rank and takes command to hide the cv"
"uhhh why are you hiding it? put it in combat"
"Player A: Waaaah"
CV gets sunk 10 minutes later
"Player A: noob must of told someone to get it sunk"
"Me: Fat chance, in a 262 intercepting the buffs over your CV handsomehunk".
Thus is when I stopped giving a crap about rank and realized people are idiots - who cares what who does with a CV? Enjoy the game, eat a popsicle, get shotdown by your CO during FSO :furious :furious :furious :furious
-

Clearly if you have someone of high enough rank in your midst that no one else can take control of a CV then you can control any CV you wish and therefor would have no reason to complain right?
I'm not complaining... just saying.
-
Thanks for posting that mission that will never launch to protest your mute and take a jab at alpini. Real classy.

... and somewhere a new shade has been created... :noid

- oldman (hey, I'm old-fashioned)
Correct me if i am wrong but the term "tard" was used way back in AW when anyone acted in an inappropriate fashion with game play. The problem the game/bbs has now is we can no longer call out the tards for acting tardlike because we may offend them and be sanctioned. The real world has crept into our little slice of the net and ruined it. The PC police has now taken over here too. HTC wanted it now they have it... enjoy. Remember folks there will always be someone who is offended by your actions somewhere. So unless chat and vox is completely removed be prepared to be offended at some point in game... you cant legislate decency.
-
Good luck with the buisness and all :aok

Alpini has always been a tool regarding cv use. I remember not too long ago when he didn't have rank and couldn't get a cv group to do what he wanted, he would just up an airplane and sit on the deck of the cv to give away its position at the enemy base for the sole purpose of getting it sunk. That was even by his own admission.

Do you need a PA Bong in your new business?
I will send you my CV when they take my tag off. :)
<S> when you have time hop the game and i will own you :)
-
and that is what the game is turning into. A bunch or kids both in mind or body, twisting the rules/game functions to create their our "kingdoms" where they do what they want "because it's their $15", or "because they earned it", or because "they can". While the rest of us are stuck trying to still have fun in the sewer that they create.
This isn't about rank, it's about having a little class and sharing the sandbox we ALL are paying for.
-
As I have read for the Luftwaffe rank only mattered on the ground. Once in the air experience called the shots. There are plenty of stories of great 'captains' and 'majors' taking over lead of the gruppe from a Colonel for the simple reason they knew how to fight and get it done.
KN is hanging their hat on rank taking control of the CV. Fine, righ up until an experienced decision needs to be made. Apparently we have in-game moderators who check 200? Maybe they could also be given the authority to override rank on a CV. If rank is being used to properly position a CV for a fight, against a shore battery, etc I think we all agree, it should be. If, as in this case, it is just a few dorking around and the rest completely disagree, some authority needs to enabled to clear it up.
In real life, abused rank gets a reassignment and ultimately a blocked promotion and dumped out of the service.
Boo
PS I think one authority rank should have with a CV is to limit when a plane can be upped. We know some squads/players like to sneak a CV near a field, use the cruiser to take down much of the town then bum rush it. A new player ups from the CV and blows the cover. This could be handled properly with rank and moderator authority.

PPS Bong, take a break for a month then come back. I've flown around you a bit. Seem a class act.

Really?
You have a problem with using the carrier to start a battle, but stopping flight ops just to stealth sneak a base is OK?
Who is ruining the fun under these circumstances? Does having a furball stop the basetake? Not a chance.

You are not the only one. HTC should insert that and similar words into their curse filter so it changes it just like it does those other inappropriate words.
As to the ranking nothing that I ever have to worry about and certainly nothing that has ever affected me or ever will. There are generally other bases around where I can get shot down using every method at my disposal.
Evereyone gets to have fun how they want. No one else dictates how they feel that is their own perception of the situation.

HA you sir are hilarious. The real life rank reference was almost too much.
No one is hanging their hat on anything.

make the base flash soon as town buildings are destroyed.
why are cv's stealthing around taking down towns in the first place?

gonna miss ya bong you were a good player bud always had class
as for you KN guys i actually a lot of respect for you guys up until this happened several from my squad and other squads on Bish side asked politley what alpini was doing that night with the CV and he wouldn't tell us and I'm pretty sure he got it sunk cause he sat on the deck waiting for one of his KN guys to come and sink it I know I was in the 5in on CV 97
I'm sorry but if you can't give us a striaght answer on what your trying to accomplish by taking the cv out of the fight and then you turn around and say "you won't answer any of questions so stfu about the cv" or something like that
people like this just want to make me :bhead

Here is your "strait answer"
Kommando Nowotny does NOT serve up CVs for other members to sink. Period.
-
Regardless of what you or anyone else thinks, we do NOT care about sinking boats. alpini was afk as I understand it. There is no way I or anyone else in my squad would tell another squaddie to take over a boat, take it to a certain sector so that he could sink it. That is very naive and I am not very impressed Eric. Dislike me or my squad all you want, but please do not be so blatantly ignorant.
