Well had you been a real flight sim fan you would have already known that SOB is about the most illiterate bastard on the planet. Unless you count Ripsnort, then SOB is like the 2nd or 1st most illiterate bastard on the planet.

See that's one of the benefits of a real FM :rolleyes::p :eek: :D

"FA Sucks, and so does it's virtual pilots"

FA, hmmm spelled properly.

Sucks, well the capital S is no doubt to highlight how much FA SUCKS. Other than that, I see no problem with it.

and... come on should be easy.

so... not here.

does... nope that's clear.

it's... it is... grammatical error but not spelling.

virtual.. what? Is this it? is it supposed to be vertuil?

pilots.... nope, clear.

Where's this retard class sign up? I think they need a new instructor.

You almost got it right Swulfe, but it's isn't a gramatical error :) It shows posession it being the game FA the pilots being what belongs to it.

Not bad for a high school / college drop out eh?

SOB is still a bastard though even if he's not illiterate....

Post by: AKSWulfe on January 25, 2002, 10:57:14 AM: Eh, I thought it was possessive but wasn't sure. Kind of like how wasn't is was and not... I was kinda confused- but nevertheless there is no spelling error.

It's is short for it is.

The corrected header should have read

"FA sucks, and so do its virtual pilots."

You homework for tonight is to the spot the errors in the following post. Slang is exempted from this exercise so words like "weenie" and "gonna" do not count.

Spelling mistakes? There's spelling mistakes in the header?

That thread is a serious thread on a serious topic. This thread is nothing but a flame. It has no merit other than some amusement value. I know most people do not need that explained to them but I am happy to enlighten you since you asked.

And yes, "it's" is a contraction of "it is" and "its" is possessive.

Let me clarify. I was not inferring that the opinions of illiterate uneducated people are any less important than that of those who can spell.

So, I was right.

The correct spelling is its not it's. Just because what is written is an actual word does not make the spelling correct.

According to your logic the following statement contains no spelling errors.

Eye ran this threw my spell cheque. Eye just don't no how two use it.

Title: FA Sucks, and so does it's virtual pilots
Post by: Habu on January 25, 2002, 01:17:24 PM: First off let me tell you how offended I am that you would make a post extolling the virtues of strawberry jelly in what is obviously a grape jelly forum. I consider it the height of bad manners to do so.

But that is what can be expected from someone like you who obviously has no idea what they are talking about. Everyone knows strawberry jelly is the jelly for kids and idiots who don't know anything.

First off look at its color. It is FREAKING RED!! What kind of color is that for a jelly? Everyone knows that the real colour of jelly is purple. And speaking of real I know for a fact that the taste of strawberry jelly is no where near what it should be. It is just dumbed down so kids will like it. Everyone knows that grape jelly tastes much more the way jelly is supposed to taste.

I wouldn't feed strawberry jelly to my dog. My dog would not even eat it if I did. Even he has more sense than that.

Any person with just the slightest knowledge of jelly knows that grape jelly is the only real jelly. I know that for a fact because my uncle knows someone who once met a guy who heard from another that grape jelly is exactly the way the original jelly was and that anyone who says otherwise is a pin head.

Title: FA Sucks, and so does it's virtual pilots
Post by: Habu on February 18, 2002, 08:33:14 AM: Hey pimpjoe.

I played WW2OL for the first time this weekend. It was a blast. Not because the graphics are great or the features are great, I found the game pretty basic in look and feel. It was a blast because I linked up with a squad that was taking some towns and there is nothing like hearing the troops on the ground calling for air support and coming in and shooting down a straifer in your Emil.

When you play different games you begin to develop an appreciation for what each offers. WW2OL to me is all about squads that have to work together to accomplish something. In Fighter Ace squads hang together but the Territorial Combat side of the game is still not that developed. AI tanks are really a joke.

But Fighter Ace is probably the best air to air game right now. I know AH is good too but I think the latest release has jumped ahead.

Guys like Steiga will not know that but that is OK because if you are happy in AH then who cares what else is out there. I am always looking for new and fun experiences so I am willing to travel and try new things.

I love the squad scene in WW2OL. That alone will keep me coming back.

fyi Habu I've been playing wwiiol since july. I'm not a blind fanboy and I've already downloaded FA3 beta versions twice. now be a good sport and... actually do what you want, I couldn't care less :)
Title: FA Sucks, and so does it's virtual pilots
Post by: Habu on February 18, 2002, 12:13:04 PM: What exactly is it in the game that you dislike so much?

I ask because when I move from one game to another I can tell a lame game from a good one. Fighter Ace is not lame. The graphics are awesome and the flight model is also great. I have heard that WW2OL has a much better flight model from many former WB gamers but all I can say is that flight models are different, you just like what you are used too. I find the WW2OL flight model quite easy and forgiving, much more like the arcade room in Fighter Ace than the real area. This is my real thoughts after flying for 20 or so hours this weekend.

I racked up 20 air to air kills and 6 deaths so I can say that this is not just my first impression.

I can understand that if you were to come to Fighter Ace you would probably get your bellybutton kicked for a while as the planes are different and it takes time to learn, but that is the same as any game.

If you like the graphic and flight model of WW2OL then I cannot imagine why you do not like Fighter Ace.

Also sorry Sikboy if I offended you in the past. You seem not to like me for some reason.
