The one and only thing I have and will ever post about him…

If he had an ounce of humility and decency in him he could have gone down as one of the best sticks to play the game, his skill and precision gunnery was undeniable.

But since it seemed like his sole purpose was to grief players and start keyboard wars… well then good riddance.

Surprised it took this long, good riddance.

May be too late however as he has ran off a good bit of the already small population left.

Shame too as he was a good stick just an incredible egomaniac.

I think some may come back.

I feel a lot safer getting my youngest (17) into the game. I just bought a 3070ti from Eagler for my Kids system which is better and faster then the 1080ti I was going to put in it.   

I will probably drop in as a subscriber from time to time, but there are probably only going to be a few months a year I'm active.

To me It's never really ever been about the game or game play as much as who I play with, and AW/AH community which is probably the oldest gaming community on the internet, is probably one of the best if not the best communities that play in a PVP environment.

Games are ment to be fun and you should not only enjoy them but enjoy the company of the people you play with as well as against.

There are still some really awesome people here.

I hope “you know who” is who many of us think it is. A large part of the community thanks you if true. Hopefully it’s not just the message boards either. While he’s never really been “gone”, his base instincts were kept in check for fear of being purged again. Hopefully, when the community has its suspicions again in the future, it will be looked into rather than treated as pure paranoia like it was in the past.

For those who were devout members of his crew, your allegiance is/was actually commendable and, to an extent, understandable. While I may have had a difference of opinion with any number of you over the years, never have I believed any of you were worthy of the ban stick.
That distinction belongs exclusively to “you know who” and no one else in my decades of playing (all the way back to AW).

Let’s not get too dramatic here. It’s not like we’re going to miss a couple players. Once word gets out,  those that left the game because of his antics may return. That, and you willing to pay for their subscription (thanks for that) removes those excuses for not returning to the game.

Let’s examine what happened here. A guy leaves the game because a well known, foul, toxic teammate gets banned. What’s the loss? The guy obviously doesn’t care about the rest of us or the game. Good riddance.

It’s worth it.

Mad? Not hardly. You leaving under these circumstances seems really weak. My score is irrelevant to the discussion and don’t let it fool you.. You weren’t whining about the hordes or game play at all when you initially quit. So, you know, fo buddy.

My score is irrelevant to the discussion and don’t let it fool you..

It is actually relevant as the ones that have been doing most of the talking/whining have also been doing most of the dying.

You weren’t whining about the hordes or game play at all when you initially quit.

I have been calling out hordes/mega squads/dweebs since I started playing this game as I have spent most of my career fighting against them. I have only logged 1 hour and 47 minutes this tour so far, which proves this game has been very low on my priority list of games.  This decision was already in the making...this is just icing on the cake.

You can do a simple search here and know I don’t post that much,  yet alone whine.
I don’t fly in hordes.
I don’t fly in a mega squad.
I do run into your squad mates that do everything you are whining about.
Usually, they are flying a late war plane as close to being perked as possible.
They always HO on the merge, run when they can and then come back pick as
soon as I have to engage one your squad mates.

It is what it is. Some people can deal with it, some can’t.

Obviously.

I dont think anyone else on that squad went out of their way to hunt players down other than "He who should not be named". Did the other players fly speed demons?, Yup! and so does a quarter to half of the other players in the MA. Did the others work together as a squad and help each other out?, Yup! as a squad should and many do.

Lumping these other players in with what "He who should not be named" did is unfair and callous. Grind your way off base.

Banshee, I hope you stick around. Your a good stick and play the game right even if you did only fly fighters. Play your game and find the fun you can where you can.

Yeah, and everyone has opinions. In the end it doesn’t really matter. Does it?

I may have been a little harsh, I mean in reality it’s not just those guys. It’s how it’s done around here. I was gone for 16 years. The only thing that has changed is the quality of the players that have been here forever. The player base has been distilled down to the best in the game (not I for sure). When I decide to leave again you sure as hell won’t hear me whine about it, just like last time. I’ll just leave. You know the old saying about if you don’t like it…Oh! And about being callous. I thought we were all grown men. Just so you know, I just deleted my account. That was easy! Now if I could delete my info off this board that would be great! Thoughts?

You know as far as reason goes for the Ban .. Pick One! There were many.

It was kind of obvious there was public doxing going on the forums and a players personal information was being sent to people in Private Messages (Poorly kept secret). Private messages are NOT really private any way. Both the Recipient and Sender can report, screen shot, share, and forward messages to others. On top of that the platform owner and their admins/mods can pretty much look at anything you Send Receive and Delete pretty much any time they want to.

Lets not touch on all the Hate Mail poor Hitech got, for which I to contributed, and while I would love to be the complaint that broke the glass to the ban hammer, I was just a very tiny drop in a very big bucket.

As far as "Its" wingies go, I think only one really went all in with "It" like a little cultist and turned into "Its" very own version of Squeaky Fromme.

With "Its" absence most of these guys are fairly tame and not much of a problem. I hope they return to being fun players and decent members of the community. Poor Banshee as far as any one knows has been a fairly good to outstanding member of the community and is a great player. This community is also better than this so we should probably skip any potential witch hunts.

In-fact How about we just let Hitech Lock this baby after ever one gets their two cents in, move on, and have fun?

I personally plan on subbing for a month or two for a scenario that a few of that Damned want to do (and maybe others in the future). As soon as my kid and I build his new computer (Thanks to Eagler it's getting a 3070ti) I'm gunna try and get him into AH, He's burning out on Warthunder but not ready for a study level sim and AH is probably one of the best to make that transition with.

Vraciu was enabling and participating in everything that went down, including during the time that YKW was supposed to be banned. Although I don't know precisely what caused this particular ejection, whether it was for cumulative or specific reasons, Vraciu appears to deserve the same treatment. Judge was also more than a willing participant in most of the shenanigans that I witnessed, too.

As for the rest, I don't think guilt by association is appropriate. I consider them to be just dimwitted bystanders and bear no ill will towards any of them.

It appears the Damned squadron is so old that it fractured across different games.   Skyyr or Damned _Shadow_ was a member of that squadron within Fighter Ace from version 2.0 to 3.0 up until he was also life banned from that game for gaining access to a moderators account and using it in an abusive manner  (blowing random people up).  Some would have seen the funny side to that but old @PPS did not.  He claimed he guessed his password as it was so basic but i'd be inclined to think why would you even want to do that in the first place.

They were the best sticks in that game and had a sound reputation for the best wingman skills, tournament wins, aces etc etc.

I'd like to know how HT intends to enforce the ban as circumventing them seems extremely easy for someone with his technological know how.

The Damned Started in Air Warrior DOS back on GEnie in 1988, we have been on Compuserve's and AOL's Air Warrior for Windows, and Lastly Gamestorm's Air Warrior III and Air Warrior Classic. (I don't think any one actively did EA's Air Warrior MV)

With the decline and closing of Gamestorm and Air Warrior some of the Damned spun off to warbirds and Fighter Ace (first version Back when Microsoft had it). All the Damned squads moved to Aces High when the price dropped to $15, which according to several older members like Damned Ren and Damned Max was actually due to the Damned.

The Damned that "It" was a member of in Fighter Ace was not related in any way shape or form to the Original Real Damned Squad.

The FA Damned opened by the Real Damned closed when Aces High Opened. So "Its" Damned again is no relation to the real Damned Fractured or otherwise.

People from Fighter Ace have also claimed "It" got kicked out of "Its" Fighter Ace Damned (not related to the Original Real AW/AH/Il2/SWTOR/SC/DCS/ Damned.) Before "IT' got kicked out of Fighter Ace.

Basically "It" is not, was not, and never has been a member of the Real Damned, regardless of what the tramp stamp above "its" arse crack says.

Well he was a good stick but his mouth/comments on 200 were cancerous, his accuracy was excellent but his grief-er game play was lacking, over all wish HT could

have perma muted his comm's here and in-game, I did like fighting him, he usually beat me but no one wants to hear all that or even see all that trash being

transmitted to whomever it was intended for over and over.

I like being right--maybe too much--but I'm gonna re-post what I prophesied about skyrr ~6 months ago despite that!  :lol

===========================================================================
My two cents worth...

It's proper and right to give people a second chance, if they've acted repentant of previous behavior.
But HT doesn't seem to monitor complaints closely any more.
So the most likely result of this player's return is that things will go smoothly for a while, and then he will regress to his previous behavior.
And nothing will be done, and some long term subscribers might be driven off as a result.

Like I said. My two cents.

I suppose I was partially wrong, since something was finally done. But still....

I don't believe that's him. Most kills in a p51D and B. Ykw didn't like 50s and P51s that much. Also, based on what Eagler said, probably not him, unless of course he was trying go throw us off with S and plane choice, but I doubt it, tbh.

My guess is it's probably Trogdor

He apparently has done well enough in 51s in the past, but probably prefers the cannon and load of the fw's.    No one just jumps in cold with performance like that - name one other player, former (lol) or current that could.

Think about the name selection as well...

Nah, this second ban only made him more determined - it's just a matter of time before he reverts in personality and then possibly a new shade.

fwiw, I don't particularly care since skyyr was my squeek-toy in general; he learned that trying to target me got him killed ingloriously.

Nothing proves it, so far. But flying a 152 or 109 would suggest.
My first kill on YKW he was in a Spit 16. The last time he killed me was in a Spit 16. A 51 is everything he chooses except it’s guns.

I also noted the name, and that it starts with S.

Its easier for HT to know as fact either way. We’re just guessing by circumstantial evidence. Sure does seem obvious tho. Several picked up on his tells very quickly before conversing about it.

I don't think it's him though. A player who never Saluted isn't going to salute now. A player who rarely flew P51s, especially Bs, isn't going to fly them now. But I know who does fly them very well, and shades a bit...

Agreed Perd, well said.  It's a shame really, with even just a bit of an attitude change, his legacy in this game would have been being the GOAT, IMO.  Now it'll be being kicked out for the second and final time, that's mostly what future players will hear. I spoke with him infrequently via email/pm, and never did get to train with him, but he offered and was willing to teach me some of his gunnery stuff once I returned to the game. 

That's the crappiest thing about the whole SKyrr story - he was a good instructor, I've seen some of his private vids he had where he was training squadmates how to fly and most importantly shoot like he does/did.  He could have had such a hugely positive impact on the game as an advanced trainer, if he'd been able to reign in some of the negative stuff.

If you’re hiding your identity you would fly other planes. Eagler beat him because he’s not throwing potatoes.

I would gamble that it is. No proof is gambling.

He would do everything opposite to hide. He didn’t salute anyone else. It was almost like saying “ I’m back”. Yes, he would put that in Eagler’s face

Great instructor for sure, but GOAT?.. no way  :rofl he had a lot of work to do in the defensive and since he never flew SEA events, we really don't know how well he'd do without positional awareness and unevenly matched planes like in the MA. While he was good in the MA, his K/D always indicated he had a a tough time staying alive and usually had to fly the fastest big cannon planes.

All I'm saying is, in the MA, I'd say Atlau was probably the greatest of all time in regards to actual #s and performance. And TonyJoey in the P51 was extremely hard to beat both in #s and skills in the MA so he's right up there.

I've got very fast reactions, but after seeing videos where he takes shots that called for reaction times that aren't humanly possible, I'm guessing the only way you get to shoot like him would be if he was willing to teach you how to instal the same gunnery bot.

I know some who didn’t know me between 2011 and 2022, but I had 22 yrs in these games before I left AH for a relationship and work.  But I’ve seen equal to better.

Not sure if same Grizz, but AW Grizzly and I dueled for hours, for days, helping me test damage model in AW.

May not be the same, its been a while. But I do remember a Grizz being a smoking good stick, minus the god attitude.

A lot if it comes down to stick and no abnormal bounce. Example. Watch my new vid One Live War. When I take down that C47 its easy to see my problem. Center stick is wiped out. Therefore I suck well beyond suck.

Any of the top tier pilots could fly a variety of planes with a variety of styles (but had their favorites) and handle themselves in both MA and DA. It's more a spectrum of talents and skills, where some are very specialized in some skillset(s) but may lack in others. Let's not forget that most of these flew with friends/skwads, which made surviving easier, so it's really difficult to name any one player as being GOAT. Skyyr had certain skillsets he excelled in, but lacked in others, especially with less competitive contemporaries to be measured against, so he has quite rightly been denied a place in the pantheon he so craves.  He had a chance, chose not to take it.

So who is "shrapnel"?     :noid
This "shrapnel" came clear across many sectors from his bishop-Rook front twice to hunt me while I was trying to defend a field with a group of other knits. The flying style was very familiar, and had I been more practiced in the 2nd encounter I would have reversed his P51. I was very close to doing so, which gave me a great confidence boost after so long away. I tried to remind him to "let it go" on 200, but didn't and paid for it in perks. (Watch this for a run-on sentence);

Later he flew a 262 many sectors from his bishop-Rook front to come after my La5 which was getting into it with the likes of Flippz and Silendt half way down the other front of knit/Rook, only to embarrassingly have his 262 turned into his new namesake  not realising he was being lead into a trap while desperately fixated on trying to kill me.

Target fixation is not the mantra of any "GOAT" I've ever seen, very amateur and stinks of an emotional fake expert.

You can call me the GLOAT, because I watched that film several times beaming with a smile worthy of the cat from Alice in Wonderland.

IMO it depends which facets of the game we're talking about.

Dueling?  I only killed Skyyr once in the duels I flew against him, I shot down Grizz and Kappa a lot more than that when I was in AOM dueling against them.  Drex I never dueled, but I did shoot down in the MA quite a bit waaaay back when he played. 

In game MA - Fester/Citabria has to be right up there near or at #1 in anyone's book, look at what he did there, accomplished every single objective when HTC brought them in on top of maintaining #1 in Fighters/whatever at will. 

I was looking at Skyyr as the goat in terms of combining his win/loss record in duels (nobody beat him that I know of, he always won more than he lost against every opponent unless someone wants to speak up otherwise), plus dominating the MA as well, using his frowned upon methods or not. 

Just my opinion based on fighting all concerned, it matters not at all.

Well I beat him... and so have a few others like Joachim and Krupnski, who are some of the best duelers I've ever seen. They just didn't post their videos because they have respect, unlike Skyyr. Many fights like Batfink for example were not true contested duels, so it's just lousy to claim superiority over pilots when it wasn't a true contest, but merely dueling how we use to back in the day. When Skyyr posted our first "duel" at 2am on a Friday night trying to take that as a serious duel, I knew he was full of chit.

I never had the opportunity to face Drex, Levy, or Fester 1v1. Too bad really. I heard Fester was pretty damn crazy.

There are simply so many sticks and everyone has their own FPH. Remember back in the day there was much more skilled pilots and squads, so a lot of things were different.

But yes, there are many ways to look at MA Fighters. Their plane choice, their flying style, the way they act, and their statistical measurement in #s.

Too me, landing matters, and so does plane choice. IMO, it's pretty easy to dominate the arena in a super fast last war plane with great cannons and get lots of kills over 8 hours a day playing and he still died quite a bit. Any good stick can do it by playing less aggressive and smart. Hell, I went 125-0 in a Temp one tour just to prove it and Kruel lost his bet, but was respectful enough to own it. I'm kinda meh about using the best BnZ planes as a crutch and then being labeled as the goat when you die that much. Just sayin...

I still think you have to factor in SEA events as well, like FSO, CC, and scenarios because that's where it really counts in even planes without being able to use positional awareness over the opponent. Since we never saw Skyyr post any #s there, that's an unchecked box in skill box for me.

Blah blah delusion

Skyyr never dueled joachim. He and Krup also never dueled "officially," as Krup PM'd him and said he wanted to work on his 1v1 skills. Ive seen the films of him fighting Krup and they were completely lopsided in Skyyr's favor for the first several months. It wasnt until after much flying with Skyyr that Krup changed his flight style.

And you? You went 1 and 1 with him.

If you doubt me on Krup, I have several of the films. Skyyr never posted them because he promised Krup never to keep score. Krup was the one Muppet who actually was nice to us and Skyyr and he never dueled or held a score out of respect for each other.

Coincidentally, he was also the best Muppet because he actually learned from Skyyr and improved, unlike the rest of your comrades.

That's a bunch of hot smoke. I didn't consider my first fight with skyyr "official" either and neither did Batfink.

Nope. I saw the PMs between Krup and Skyyr. They both agreed to not keep score, even to this day. Krup's in our Discord too. Skyyr and him have always been friendly.

You and Batfink talked toejam and got owned. There was never anything friendly between you and us. You brilliant jokers demanded that we duel you - we didn't even know who Batfink is or was. That backfired brilliantly didn't it?

Own up your loss like a man. You and I dueled and you beat me. Did you hear me claiming it was a warm-up or a practice? Nope. I lost. You dueled Skyyr for the exact same challenge and got slaughtered and now suddenly you "were friendly practicing."

Ever know anyone who had that much inside information of anyone? He seems to know every breath Skyyr ever took,...sounds like the praise of Vraciu.

And yet, I never called him out at all. Agreed to go duel. Decisively beat him in the first three fights, then got relaxed and started giving tips. Bullying was never my thing. Left feeling like we had had fun and relaxed session.

Only then years later for some unknown reason to have him use a video of some of our fights to say he 'won' something against me. I guess it was an oversight that he left the first three fights in there, because the spanking was pretty apparent despite the E advantage on merge.

Why is it Skyyr, no matter what game he's been in, has been accused of and booted because of cheating? It's his entire reputation. I know somethings I've seen are not normal.. It seem your name and V know about his entire life and every breath. Kinda sound like the same person.

Point being, he's known for cheating and being a total Awipe, in every game I heard he was in.

This fantasy of your fearless and honourable leader has to end Kruel.  I went to fight him. I spanked him a few fights. My better nature took over, we mixed up the planes a lot. Here is a snap of me being kind with tips when he said he was trying to learn.

(https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1143992122001866862/1288363291025997845/skyrtips.png?ex=66f4e951&is=66f397d1&hm=eef8d8edf560edf39cb8cf0884d91638ef76e8cc490a53bdb69a9457e5b1e8d5&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=550&height=110)

But all the while, he was sending 'score' update PMs to a sycophantic squadmate, unbeknownst to me... Clearly shown in the video if anyone was bored enough to watch a whole hour of aces high dueling...ever


these examples took me 5 mins to find in that ridiculous hour long youtube video titled   'Batfink VS Skyrr! (Spoiler - Batfink loses)'

The video itself is cut in a lot of places where we chatted between fights. I left that session feeling like he was not that bad a guy in the end and felt good to have helped him. He really sucked back then, all he had was high E tactics and engine off ropes. Beating him in the La7s was fairly simple. Making more of a fair fight and trying to have fun came back to bite me in the backside. I could easily have left after the three spankings and never agreed to go back.

It's over Kruel, give it up already

So let me see if I can reconstruct your series of events:

You called Skyyr and me out to duel. Skyyr said "not interested." You repeatedly demanded to duel him and even made the post, mocking him for not fighting you.

He finally agreed. You then said first to 7, but then halfway through decided to go easy and let him win, calling it a friendly duel. A duel he didn't want and you demanded take place?

 :rofl

Now where have I seen this excuse before? Oh lol, I remember.
Your format was the exact same format every Muppet followed after they lost to skyyr. You called him out, mocked him (and myself I might add) on your private forums, then made posts here on the AH forums demanding he duel you... and you lost.

And then you want to claim you helped him and it was "friendly."  :rofl

If it helps you sleep better a night, pumpkin, believe that all you want. No one else does. Maybe you forgot, but I was there for almost all of the duels and it was most certainly not friendly.

This isn't the first time you tried to pass off this lie either. I called you out on it 10 years ago and I ain't gonna stop now. Read through this old thread and you'll see we all called you out for the same lie then too.

I don't see you posting any videos of you and me dueling. Wonder why.

You cannot 'let someone win' if you are not trying to win anything.

I am completely secure about who i am, about how I conducted myself when I flew in this game and especially about my motivations for ever going to the DA with someone. I'm pretty sure that any other person who did 1on1 fights with me would see the experience of fighting me in the DA in a different light.

That's some funny toejam. You called us both out, as can be seen from the link. There was nothing friendly about that duel.

And I have never been afraid to duel anyone, win or lose. That's partially why I find this so hypocritical and sad. You didn't see me making excuses about "this was just for fun" on the occasions I lost, but for some reason almost everyone in your squad did.

You are very silly.

It is you who cannot let anything go. Your hero has constantly shown himself to be narcissistic, selfish, petty and ego driven on a level that many of us could not have even imagined possible. A consummate liar. Capable of a propaganda campaign worthy of the most despicable politician.

Yet you still defend him. I admire your loyalty. A fine quality.

Such a shame that you are no longer useful to him. That loyalty you display will never be returned.

Yet here you are, every day, still protecting the monster you could not see. But you will. This community is so great that it will even forgive you...when you do finally realise how you've been used.

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. This was settled almost a decade ago,

Cobblers on both counts. You are here trying to forcefully assert the legacy of your master and most of us don't agree it fits into the criteria we use to measure that.

None of those were duels from YKW's end in what an AH duel was accepted to be: an even matched contest in the same planes. YKW didn't do that, he went full ghey on every merge only beginning to fight once he had secured an advantage through essentially not fighting. As passive-aggressive as the rest of his personality. Might as well have entered each duel with a 2k height advantege. Speaking of which a particular Muppet befriended and helped me before his passing and shared lots of films. Some of those were duels before the air spawns were introduced. And guess what, YKW was climbing above the agreed alt and diving to level outside of icon range for an airspeed advantage. Just like EAce used to do. It appears some evidence is promoted while some is surpressed. Where are the Grizz duels? Somehow imagine you have unrestricted access to the positive evidence on YKW's HD. Or are those ingenuously lumped together by association and implied from the MA when Grizz popped back in for a weekend after leaving the game? I saw Grizz's comments about those btw. YKW didn't prove anything in these 'duels' beyond the axiom that even a Chimpanzee with a Kalashnikov is dangerous.

Arguing that's the correct way to fight and they do it in other simulators is besides the point. YKW never pointed out the nature of duelling in AH was based on a particular local premise which is flawed in the real-world (we know that), he just took advantage of the culture to elbow his way to the front of the stage of greatness and take all the credit personally. A workaround as with most of what he did in the MA too. Workaround the anonymity of the red icons. Workaround the side-swapping restriction. Workaround the SA of the average player by having his squad distributed over different sides. Workaround deficiencies of squadmates by flying under their callsigns. Workaround the drag modelling. Work around the torque modelling. Same pattern of behaviour with his pilot's licence. Entirely besides the point if his Daddy paid for him to become an glorified driving instructor teaching old rich ladies to fly a Cessna 152: in the game it was all gaming the game.


Krup was the one Muppet who actually was nice to us and Skyyr and he never dueled or held a score out of respect for each other.

Cuts right to the core of what YKW was all about. At the end of the day can't stand criticism, anyone proposing a disagreeable position a difference of opnion or even simple ambivalence. YKW was a master of spin, gaslighting and manipulation of both events and other people and we all know that. All this talk of him being a great teacher, did he ever teach any of you to fight cohesively or was it just little tips and tricks which presented as helpful? He told you exactly what you wanted to hear so you could join his you-against-them cult. Even the Muppets fought amongst themselves. You don't find out what a man is made of by fawning to him. You find out by crossing him. I presume he's still alive? Give it a try.


Coincidentally, he was also the best Muppet because he actually learned from Skyyr and improved, unlike the rest of your comrades.

Did Joach1m learn from YKW? (it's rhetorical, I already know the answer)


Then, when you lost, you claimed it was for "fun." Like I said, grow up and own your loss. Let it go.

That's a Strawman argument. Batfink was well known for doing what he said he did. In addition you have failed to assert the premise that results are the only thing that counts regardless of circumstances. If you ever want the stem of the saying statistics lie all the time then here's your example. Sitting on a pile of films like Hoover waiting to spin those whenever someone 'turned aggressive'. What kind of a dishonourable weirdo carries on like this?


Skyyr speaking through  a proxy.

Yes let's talk about this. YKW has been banned from this forum and from the game as well I believe. To my eyes the following post seems to have been mostly draughted by YKW:

https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,409818.msg5433214.html#msg5433214

Precise links to all of the files in correct order etc etc. Very neatly autistic you'd almost say. Did YKW email you that Kruel? Or the body of it? Is this another example of YKW 'flying under someone else's account'?

If Kruel has nothing to contribute to this forum beyond being a proxy mouthpiece for YKW then why is he similarly not PNGed? HiTech said YKW is gone...

This isn't going to go away unless it is ignored...

Can we start ignoring it now?

Ha, that brings back memories, I busted a few people doing that; Fester was one. We ended up the in the DA after an exchange in the MA and I won in 109s, then after that he was having a noticeable E advantage over me I couldn't always over come. Later I checked my film and he was mid dive just as he popped in range. His aircraft decelerating into the merge taught me how to spot other guys doing that.
Another guy was SEViper, the initial results of the duel weren't as he imagined and then spent so much flying for E over his field that when we merged I was almost in ack range of his base.
I busted a few more not memorable enough to list.. MrCrowley was the funniest, rather than tricks he just claimed his house was burning down and left the DA.

A false sense of superiority is so hollow and meaningless I don't know how anyone would want to resort to it  :old:

Of course not, you can just exchange IDs with Stalkyyr and have him do the fighting for you.  :old:

Crack that whip, give the past a slip
Step on a crack, break your momma's back

When a problem comes along, you must lock it
Before the screams get too long, you must lock it
When something's going wrong, you must lock it

Now lock it into shape, shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead, try to detect it, it's not too late
To lock it, lock it good

When a good time turns around, you must lock it
You will never live it down unless you lock it
No one gets away until they lock it

I say lock it, lock it good
I say lock it, lock it good

Crack that whip, give the past a slip
Step on a crack, break your momma's back

When a problem comes along, you must lock it
Before the screams get too long, you must lock it
When something's going wrong, you must lock it

Now lock it into shape, shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead, try to detect it, it's not too late
To lock it into shape, shape it up, get straight
Go forward, move ahead, try to detect it, it's not too late
To lock it, well, lock it good
