Hello! Call me Spyro; the full name's kind of a moniker I've started carrying around everywhere, so do forgive that.
I was once a squeaker/n00b/piece of cannon fodder you guys perhaps knew and loathed (and secretly wanted to squelch) as 'Tails4', way back in '07 or '06 or so. Nowadays, I'm just a lurker; I have no intention of getting back in the fight at the moment, primarily because I have no means of doing so--and by that I mean I have no PC, not even a laptop. Just means I'm gonna be popping in here every now and again.
It'll be a pleasure getting back in there, but right now, lemme just say 'hi'.

Former squeaker. I'm a senior in high school now, going to graduate in May; I last played this game 'seriously' in 2007-2008, remember.
Let's just say I sucked at being quiet. And at being a decent pilot.

Yeah, I remember you. You made one of the most hilarious posts of all time.
Those on the server I usually play at may have recently noticed my absence. Well, it turns out that my dad (I just so happen to be 12 now) discovered the thingies, showing I'd done it. Instead of risking losing computer access for one week, I fessed right up, which resulted in my dad having to have me cancel that account. (bad desicion, right?) So I will be no longer playing this game online until I can sneak it by. LTOWN, I'm sorry for all my messups, and to Grill, well, thanks for being there when LTOWN wasn't. Oh, and if you see a Tails5 out there, that could be me returning to the skies. (this I didn't disclose-- I actually got a kill against a seafire by shooting its right wing off.) Knights, in my absence, give those sheep loving Bishops hell!

*sigh* Indeed. I was an RP-loving little scumbag back then, doin' whatever I could to keep in the fight. Don't worry, I'll be legitimate this time, I promise!
Full disclosure: I'm actually kinda happy I made you guys laugh, if only at me. I'm just hoping I'm not too infamous in the community these days.
In fact, lemme tell you how much I've learned since then:
1) Energy is love, energy is life. In certain fighters, this is your livelihood; in others, it's just another tool in your arsenal.
2) Lead your target.
3) Don't be an RPing squeaker.
4) Know the role of each aircraft. Americans move mud, Russians defend, Germans intercept bombers, Japanese are cannon fodder at worst, distractions at best.
5) Read the flow of battle before you go up. Know where you're needed instead of flying aimlessly.
6) Don't take off from a base that's under attack
7) Don't take drop tanks if you don't want to be outflown.
8) NEVER go for theatrics. Don't post anything like 'that one post'.
I think those are the most important things.

Bull, you can move mud in anything that carries a bomb, spits, las and brewster are the defenders on the deck more often than not but doing so in a P38 can be lots of fun! Zeros and KI's in the right hands are deadly.

again Bull! if your "E" fighting I hardly ever drop a tank while fighting. You can "E" fight easily with drops on and if it looks like your against a newb, turn fight with them as well.
8) NEVER go for theatrics. Don't post anything like 'that one post'.

Its a game and there are very few "absolutes". Have fun and see what works for you.
