Just wasted a few minutes of my life reading the 'why does Shane play an online game at all' thread.
I can't understand a lot of the complaints that people have about unequal fights. They are a fact of life. I don't mind dying - it's a Game. If the only engagement i can find is one where i'm outnumbered, then fine, i'll just do my best. I regularly get slaughtered of course, but in an engagement like that i don't complain about how 'unfair' it was - i appreciate the fact that it was actually 'realistic'. That's the way fights are in the real world. If i want perfectly balanced odds and e states, with chivalrous players, I'll play an offline game.
Similarly, if i up in the CT and the only fight i can find is lower, slower and outnumbered, i'll go in there and slaughter him. If he evades long enough or well enough, he gets an . The only thing that would stop me is the possibility of winding up low'n'slow when his mates arrive. The numbers are too low to wander around looking for 'duels'.
Plus, a lot of the planesets make flying in numbers a sensible, and realistic, option. This hurts me a lot as i'm not in a squad due to time constraints on my flying, but i'd be dumb to whine about it.
As for vulching, please, spend five seconds in the tower and you know the radar state of your field, you know if there are cons in your area, you know that you have no excuse for complaining if you get your bellybutton handed to you. 'Vulching' is field capping. There are other fields to take off from. It is a game. Accusing someone of vulching or milkrunning is laughable.
I don't want this to be a whine. I'm just saddened when i see other people whose bloodpressure is adversly affected by something i find enjoyable, and yes, even when i get shot down. Using expressions like milker, ack-runner, vulcher, ganger, lamer, alt-monkey or whatever is just a pathetci way of saying you can't cope with the unpredictability and self preservation of Real enemies....

seems to me you guys are the ones whining about having the ball from your private little kiddie pool stolen.
then again, you're not good enough to achieve much without a little horde to hide in - and even then, you come up short.
-
Dont need a horde to get a kill on you
maybe just a mild distraction:D

It is very interesting that you, of all people, would accuse someone of whining.
What we are doing is making it abundantly clear to you that we dont like your whining. We dont think it is appropriate behavior in the CT.
I know I should just leave it alone, as we have made our point in two threads now.
again, just cant help myself.

Ohhhhh the dreaded 3rd person "we" rears it's ugly head. lol. i found *your* litttle picture post to be quite amusing... and whiny to the extreme.
let *me* make it perfectly clear... i'm not whining... I'm deliberately insulting you weak chumpwads' lack of skills. perfect little borg.... now get back into your cube!!
lol @ common lamermobs.
and tard, wtfgas what *we* <--- lol there it is again - think is "a-a-a-a-p-p-pu-propreeeate" behavior in the CT. the only thing that matters to me is my opinion of the "we" which is, to put it quite bluntly, very low, non-existent even; mere bugs to be squashed beneath the heel of my superior fighting style!!! bow down!!!
or at least make use of the TA, eh? it's.... thattaway ---->
did you check out that nice ACM link i posted? plenty of clues in there for ya.

<----------the TA's that way:D

Crowbaby - well said sir.
