I believe the term you are looking for is "came out of the closet".  And it's not that we didn't figure it out about you, we just felt it would be impolite to mention it.

i think if storch was gonna come over and screw with the arena, he'd just use his old name. i don't honestly think he would though, as i do believe he was part of what/who got this arena up and running last time?

You're nuts and completely wrong.  On both accounts.

Although I do agree with you that none of them are Storch.  Just his previous lackeys.

Just because someone helped start an arena doesn't mean they would always have its best interest at heart.

A constant battle in any limited plane set historical arena is the Big Fish in a Small Pond syndrome. Some folks like the limited competition inherent to such a setup and work to keep the population low to stroke their own egos.

The current problem is exactly what is going on. It is an exercise in ego gratification.

A possible solution is to recruit (or create) a squadron willing to invest time to opposing this minor annoyance. A constant 8 ship over the perps would discourage them fairly quickly and they would leave or be forced to recruit a force of like minded juveniles to contend with it. Either way is good. One way they leave. The other way more people fly in the arena.

And it would have the added bonus of creating a team work atmosphere in the AvA.

well, there's AVA JG3! but i think the triplets are getting the best of them most of the time.

<edit> no disrespect intended, just in case it came off that way. maybe you guys could be the defining force and start beating them (IE the triplets).

While I agree squadrons operating in the AvA is a good thing and should be encouraged. I don't think forming a squad with the express purpose of going after any certain group is a good idea. It just adds more fuel to the fire and keeps the venom flowing. Friendly healthy competition with other squads I'm all for. Witch hunts or adding to an already ex sisting problem isn't going to do anybody any good. I believe in fighting hard being aggressive, and playing to win. However if we're going to do things for the sake of revenge or some attempt to punish others...  That's just another form of negative activity that will just lead to more negative activity. Bring your teamwork and flying to the arena by all means. In the long run that's the best medicine. Check the torches and noose at the door though.

Its only negative if they participate in the text exchange. I guess I should have been more clear. It really isn't a witch hunt I intended. Just a constant presence in a large enough force to prevent 3 people from dominating an arena.

There is usually only one fight in the arena and a good four ship easily defeats these clowns. The few times I've brought my squadron in when these guys were in there we ran them all over the map with 4 or 5 P-38's flying a style that is much frowned upon in the AvA. As a habit of many years now we takeoff from a rear area base, climb high and fight together. We are true gang bangers. We fly in an historical fashion and seek advantage in every engagement. We find no thrill in 1 v 1 outside of squadron training.

If that was the prevalent atmosphere in the AvA then 3 guys couldn't dominate and cause this kind of hassle. If squadrons were the norm in the AvA this is a non-issue.

History was and is about teamwork. The no-icon AvA should do all it can to provide a positive environment for squadrons who want to fly in a place providing historical matchups.

we don't need a larger force to dominate......just need to stop falling into their game.

 they hang a couple of miles from a base, and everyone keeps upping from there.....thus they get caught slow and low, still trying to gain fighting alt and speed. they jump on ya. you're down, and do it again. that is one of their tactics to rack up their k/d. no one ups from another base to push em back, or down.

 they'll have one or two draw everyone into a low fight.....and let the other come in with one of the fast planes, and pick ya out of the fight. no one is flying high cap, or pushing em down.

 all that is needed to show them that they're not as great as they think they are(they are excellent sticks though) is teamwork, and communication.

 got a con lingering above the fight, picking? first one down, launch farther back, and grab enough alt to push it down. if it's one of them, it'll run, as they wanna protect that k/d ratio.

 got cons lingering off the runway? same thing.

 and finally.....even this post is doing exactly what we shouldn't be doing......feeding the trolls. we all need to stop these kinds of threads, and focus on the good/fun things in the arena.  :aok

One Observation I have see in my flight sim experiences over the years is that there are generally two elements of players.

The antisocial introvert that didn't get enough attention from mommy and daddy.The type that think just because they can drive Pixels around a computer screen well that it some how defines them as great warriors.

 Those types generally have no life or anything in the real world to hold onto, so they escape their true identity's and hide in the virtual world.

 They speak of skill ect as if it meant they actually had any real world intestinal fortitude or physical ability. When in the majority of their free time they are probably jerking off and popping zits. Its sad really.


That type will always stand out on text buffer squawking as we see thoughout our virtual lives. Lets try  to help them I think All they need is a hug.

 
Then there are others that simply like the positive comradely from flying with buddy's and the friendly and honorable competition that we all have here in the AvA. Along with the interpersonal relation ships that develop.
That's why I like flying in the AvA because the majority of players are socially well adjusted individuals with real life experience's, many have given selflessly to there communities family's and Country. Those guys are also not the type to brag about how well they can wiggel a joy stick around.

Yes there are a few Fools that pop in here and irritate but just as ignoring impolite behavior from a small child helps to diffuse the situation. So it will on the text buffer. That and a littel kick in the bellybutton from the admins.
The AvA  has been a far better experience for me personally than any other arena in Ah in my opinion.

If mental midgets are bringing you down
Teamwork will turn up the corners of your frown

Don't despair, the AvA is still where you should be
it is fairly simple as you shall see

Don't play their game

Fly from far away, climbing high into the sun
It is certain to increase your fun

Get some friends on your wing

Hoey has 39 kills in a 262, 2 kills of 262's, he has been killed by 1 262 and has died 3 times in a 262.

Rammey has 5 kills in a 262, 0 kills of 262's, he has been killed by 1 262 and has died 1 time in a 262.

And that last guy doesn't show up (ceklner)

So I'd say that guy you say is an easy kill is kicking someones bootay.

yea, i do.

 would you like to see films of him "extending" at over 500mph in a 190? or doing the same in a 262? or of him circling down low, 'cause he saw the 38 waiting up above for him? or of him going for multiple "hi angle deflection shots" in said 262(which i was honestly amazed that he missed so many times)

 slapping us around would be more like gettin down n dirty into the fight, and killin our cartoon airplanes.....not the high speed passes that seem so popular amongst you guys.

that all being said, i don't hold anything against anyone in the arena......i've learned better a long time ago than to let someone sitting behind the safety of their computer to piss me off.
 i also don't think ch1 should be shut off, as you guys are pretty amusing, even if a little annoying sometimes....but amusing nonetheless.  :D

 I don't think the issue is the skill or success individuals have when they fly. And I would be the last to disparage anyone for teamwork. The issue is the behavior on text channels. Having flown against the individuals in question they are individually above average but certainly no world beaters. They generally rely on choosing the aircraft in the arena with the most speed and fly carefully together. All of that is good.

But they are in the arena because it affords them the opportunity to fly with no chance of meeting opposition in the same aircraft. They aren't interested in history, just a decided advantage and the opportunity to annoy via the text buffer.

This isn't anything new. It has happened in every axis/allies split arena in every game for the past two decades.

I've never seen any of the said 3 players really say anything in the arena. I fle under a different callsign a bit a few months ago hen these guys first surfaced. They ere great to have on your team - would give check 6's, clear you, and say "wtg" hen landing kills. I fly against them now whenever I'm in the arena. They can fly dweeby but like others have noted, they are above average sticks (still not as good as me, of course) :). They are in there every night almost. Whether we like it or not, they're doing the arena good number - wise. My only suggestion is to squelch them if you find them offensive/annoying or what have you.

lol this is getting old fast, kills in 262, no icons = easy mode = easy kills, i have never flown a 262 ( they don't really interest me) till a couple nights ago 1st flight 2 kills upon landing front nose gear broke and i died , second flight nothing encountered so i landed, same darn front gear problem and the slide for life ensued and i died, i think im landing to hot   :joystick:

personally i feel Rank is the big motivation for some people, just take the rank out of the AvA arena, if you want to go see your "rank" go to the homepage all your stats are there, i feel Rank/Score is always detremental to alot of  OnLine games, like its some life accomplishment to be ranked #1 in some online game,BUT to some it is so you throw a bunch of people who think like that into a game it can get bad quick, look at how alot of FPS games are now, just run and gun and nadefests, anything for a kill to reach a higher rank,

yesterday was a perfect example i upped a hvy110 for a long run i seen 2 high f4's getting ready to engage a friendly so i decided to land as fast as i could and up something to turn fight in, (about that time i get a LOL why you hiding in your ack 110 on 200 from one of the pilots)landing gear down and i see them barreling in on me both trying to kill me as i landed, twarted two attemts from them but hit a tree and one gets the proxy, they both head off maybe 3k from tower so i up a fighter no sooner i got moving one dives in real fast kills me just after wheels up with a head on, i asked them both what the heck and they just LOL for score thats why

ive never talked to them or ever said a bad word in there about them, everytime ive flown in there we have been on the same side, I'm a very quiet person so i don't talk much at all except check6's  so i dont see where that's my fault, i dont rag on anyone no need to its a game, treat me with respect and youll get it back 10 fold that's how i was raised, talk trash to me you'll just get ignored, internet rambo's mean nothing to me and only take away from any game

 my 110 experence didnt involve them that happened in the MA from 2 people from a very well known squad , i was using that as an example of the seemly majority we see now

i havengt flown the 262 ingame yet......but i know from reading that they had nose gear problems in real life. the original 26 was a tail dragger, and that didn't work well, so they added a nose wheel....but it was very weak, and prone to breaking. i think they said any side load at all upon touch down, and touching down too hot would almost guarantee a nose gear collapse.

nothing to lose that's why i tried it out it wouldnt be my plane of choice for dogfighting, it's more a Bomber chasing Plane to me them taters tear a plane up fast (if you can hit them, i'm always going to fast  :eek:) tree top level it's a blast

I went up against a bomber formation in the MA the other day. They smoked both my engines on the 3rd or 4th pass. Cool part is that I brought her in deadstick and landed nose-wheel first. (survived)

Got the vid, just don't know how to post such things.

P.S. I agree with Oldman, they are boring as heck. However, if a sortie against buffs is your thing then they can make for some white knuckle, high speed fun.

Oh crud guys we've been wrong all along. 

I got suddenly curious and did the math.  If I 'die' an average of 10 times a night and I 'fly' an average of 4 days a week AND I pay $16.03 a month that's roughly .10 a plane  :O  So I need to get busy dying more so my planes will be cheaper.  I mean Imagine the horror of being to most uber super duper pilet in the game that never gets shot down and losing that one plane a month. This hobby could get expen...

Well lets see, just looking up jet stuff...

Hoey has 39 kills in a 262, 2 kills of 262's, he has been killed by 1 262 and has died 3 times in a 262.

Rammey has 5 kills in a 262, 0 kills of 262's, he has been killed by 1 262 and has died 1 time in a 262.

And that last guy doesn't show up (ceklner)

So I'd say that guy you say is an easy kill is kicking someones bootay.

Do you ever think 2 posts ahead?

I'll bet the farm that 38 of those 39 kills are him picking a guy already engaged with another player so he can pat himself on the back all he wants  lol  Thats why i just squelch them and move on.  Yes it is irritating when they do pick me off but i just let it go, re-up and go at it again.  I think what irritates most of the "regulars" is their score based MA attitudes and this is the reason we all left the MA and enjoy flying here.  If the majority of players in the AvA had their attitude it would be empty just like EW and MW for the most part.  Its the overall attitude of the players in the arena that keeps it populated at this point and I dont see that changing.

theres no such things a 262 dogfights, i have never seen one in my 8 plus years in AH, only on special nights were everyone is flying them like the upcoming Jet Night, 262's fly around mach speed looking for people that are not paying attention or engaged already, swoop in, club them and scamper off, they wont turn fight because they'll scrub off to much speed then the prop planes have a chance, like Oldman said worth trying out, to me they equal easy mode, biggest guns, fastest plane to run away in if you need to, so ya there boring lol

It is always relative. 262 does not knife fight prop planes but back in Warbirds we had a few 262 versus F-86 events and those 262's were like slow and turned well compared to the F-86 although good use of the speedbrake allowed the F-86 to hang with the 262 for a few turns. The F-86's consistently slaughtered the 262's because they couldn't run away, couldn't stay vertical with a Sabre and couldn't accelerate once you got them below 5000 feet.

The fastest plane in any plane set always ends up in this position. The speed difference of the 262 over the prop planes just makes it dramatic.

everyone would be if they wasn't perked over 200 or more depending on the amount people online, every video Ive seen of 262's consist of nothing more than swooping in on planes fire a couple taters and run before they get shot at, they don't want to lose there precious perked plane, take the perk off and you'll see them everywhere like spit's and hurri's

Well of course it isn't EASY, even though it is BORING.  

The softball trajectory of the 30mms, combined with the speed of the plane, makes aiming a real challenge.  Reminds me of Peter Ustinov's line from "Spartacus":  "Brilliant dagger thrust...at a difficult angle."

Plus it can be depressing when everyone flying real planes gets irritated that your 262 is circling around picking them while they're having real fights.  Going through a whole evening when everyone hates you is never easy in my book.

Whoa there Nelly! In my almost ten years of playing aces high I have never once used a shade. Iv changed my name a few times but have always been open to telling people if I did. The last time I played aces high was about six weeks ago when I opened a two week trial to see if there was anything new that would get me interested in starting playing again. Sadly there wasn't and I let my two week trial expire without subscribing. My name during those two weeks was 'Larry' just like it has been for the past few years.

landing speed--below 200, lots of flaps, keep nose up
turning fight--use flaps
BNZ--be careful of compression

this jet burns E quickly in a turn fight but takes awhile to get it back, bare that in mind. if you get too slow, you'll take awhile to recover your E. the good thing is the other guy will have the same problem. Camoflage on these jets are very good. you'll have a tough time spotting them.

Naw I went into the AvA the first night back and pretty much got my bellybutton handed to me. It was kinda hard to keep track of planes w/o the little red thing on top of them.

As for the 262 turn fighting its not really a good idea in the MAs, but since they were always free in the AvA I just started stall fighting OM in it. IIRC he killed me or I flew into the ground every time.

In the MA you dont really have to B&Z. I like to keep about 5k above the deck just in case someone dives on me and can nose down and pull away from them. You want to stay fast but not to fast. The thing likes to compress like 109s if you dont watch your speed.

Naw I went into the AvA the first night back and pretty much got my bellybutton handed to me. It was kinda hard to keep track of planes w/o the little red thing on top of them.

As for the 262 turn fighting its not really a good idea in the MAs, but since they were always free in the AvA I just started stall fighting OM in it. IIRC he killed me or I flew into the ground every time.

In the MA you dont really have to B&Z. I like to keep about 5k above the deck just in case someone dives on me and can nose down and pull away from them. You want to stay fast but not to fast. The thing likes to compress like 109s if you dont watch your speed.

first off.....congrats sir.

 secondly....it only takes a few hours to get somewhat accustomed to the lack of icons.

 i don't go to the main arenas anymore. when i go there, i almost inevitably get one of the following:
1) guy makes a single pass, and runs like hell.....usually to about 5 or more of his friends
2)guy bnz's me to death. if i manage to dodge them all, and equalize e states, see #1
3)guy sees me co-alt.....see #1
4)i get ganged by 5 or more. this is fun once in awhile, but not every single time.

If I went into the MA now I think I'd be distracted by all the 'killboards' above the planes  :devil  And, as you know, I'm easily 'shiny thinged'

lol now I need to get used to chasing shadows over the sea and land now let alone the kill boards in MA but I can really say AvA has helped me out a-lot with the no icons  here then going back there with icons and my SA. Thanks to all who helped me out here and Cap you get my peeeeeee38 training film lol I am just shocked I lasted that long and flying it without true rudder pedals.

It's funny how protective I am of mine now that I've had it reworked and I'm in game full time.  I used to be 'ya sure you can use my computer.  Now I'm a 'you've got a smart phone, I have Wifi, so ummm.. no'.  I'll let Squid use it if he needs to because he's a trustworthy dude and respects my limits but nobody else.  Unless of course it's a fellow AH guy.  That's goes without sayin :D

in my experience with them, i doubt very strongly they're jg54. vultchy runs away from a 1-1 all the time.......larry never did. larry was an excellent pilot. vulthcy has lots of kills on me, but has yet to actually fight me. picks.
 hoey tries to run also, but will eventually fight. he has exactly 1 move....which if you don't fall for it, it's only a matter of time till he's done. hoey also has lots of kills on me......picks. the couple of fights we've had, i've disassembled his airplane for him.  :devil

 rammey is the only one of the three that never runs away. ever. at least he hasn't from me. i think we've got equal kills on each other. he seems to like to get in close, and knife fight, and it is always fun.

 i got myself into a situation with 2 of them, and someone else in the BoB setup. the third one joined in. i shot down two of them, drano had come into the fray at one point, and took out the other one....then it was hoey, and vultchy vs me. i got hoey, and watched his wingie desert him as it bacame evident that he was gonna lose the fight.

 they ain't that tough..........

Of course there's never any proof in intardnet land, but vultchy=larry.  Can tell by the flying style, plane choice, and the association with a couple of tards.  He never said anything rude and he saluted while his buddies made arses out of themselves.

Post by: CAP1 on December 17, 2010, 08:25:22 AM
now see? vultchy is usually the one to make an bellybutton of himself. rammey is generally pretty cool, win or lose.

 i've also gotten the word from storch, that he is not any of them, nor is he antivortex, and i think i recall him saying that larry is not any of them, although i'm not sure.

Rammey always gets out of control on me.  I dont know if its cause the stupid number next to my name, as he always references it.  Maybe i called his mom the wrong name one night, who knows.  All i know is that Ive gone a long time without saying anything to any of them and they never let up.  I have had the same results as cap.  Rammey is the only one that will fight 1V1 and it is almost always up close and personal.  Every kill on me by the other 2 dweebs are either picks or ho's.   I wouldnt care so much i guess if they didnt prance around on 200 or all channel gloating at their latest Grumpy pick or kill,  im way to old for this crap.  I know HTC says they pay their money and that is that but I pay my money too, and its not to listen to the garbage they spit out every night.

They also said you were stick stirrers, HOers, picking stupid planes, and that I was giving you check 6 calls while observing from your plane.

I can't speak for the HOing, because for whatever reason shots/sound of shots don't show up when you're observing, but all the other claims were false.

To be honest, they were strange fights.  Considering just how much they were talking, I was expecting either you and Kappa would quickly destroy them, or for you to have to work very hard most rounds.  Instead, it was something in the middle. They did alright and had a clue, but, I could tell you didn't really have to work for it...  It was as though you were fighting two good sticks who crave recognition for being great but aren't quit there yet.

I don't think they're good enough to be Larry and N7. Even my rusty arse can beat them with relative ease. back when I fought both of them in the AvA frequently, Larry was probably a bit better than I, and N7 was about the same in skill. Fights were always fun with him because you knew if you'd get shot down, he would troll on 200. :)

Vultchy aka Larry, was flying the hell out of the K4 last night.  He got his butt whipped, but it was still top notch flying.  Hoey is probably N7, as he is the next best and Rammey is Storch, who is the most loud mouthed of the group, and also sucks pretty bad.

Just in case it is needed:
 (http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac270/puma44/Holyhandgrenade.jpg)

Instructions for preparation and employment are provided below:

"O Lord, bless this thy Hand Grenade that with it thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy."

"First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin.
Then, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less.
Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.
Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
Five is right out.
Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
