The O' Club / Re: My last 10 days, great way to end career

« Last post by Animl-AW on Yesterday at 09:39:53 AM »

I don't understand ?

Can you explain ?

Are you very old ?

I am 61 and don't understand why I still feel the same but allot easier. I have to work part time for another 5 years but not too much and work stops one getting too old or weird. Young people are a tonic x I am hoping not to drop below about 16 hours a week working ever.

BTW I respect your on line contributions     I am a bit of an A hole but am getting better 

Thanks.
I’ll be 65 jan 30, officially retired feb1. I just stopped working early.
I have several hobbies, some outdoors I missed the last 15 yrs with IATSE.
AH is a hobby, whatever I can do surrounding it I’ll do.

Anyone who calls themselves an Ahole usually is not. You’re fine.

In warbirds, you could attach as a gunner to any AI planes on your country.

Fighting AI is drama free. If this board is a reflection on the in game drama these days no thanks.

Like no drama compared to how I remember. Back in the day people were arranging to have it out on the mic at random locations in MC ing comps to decide the fight bringing their own PA systems 

To be fair in those days MC ing it off on the mic was how everything was decided and it was brutal   

Some fellas never came back from those days and we miss them 

Some people got very angry and we are better now 
We had some young fellas squaring off and the forumn would run to 100 pages. WHO WHAT WHEN WHATEVER. THE real war was here on the forumn and people who had not logged in for years were in the thick of it. I personally know of felllas who were advised on mental health grounds to take a brake from AH. It was just too hot to live with and they had to step back 


I think the Flame forumn war was the peak. I dont know what it was about but I am a survivor

It is.  I haven't flown in about 2 months, and I am upset that I don't miss it anymore than I do.

I am aware of squelching and report.
I use   them together.

I call someone a weeb.  I get called a pedo, accused of stealing valor, get called things like this screen shot.

Save your pearl clutching for some actual offense like the sexual immaturity and filter bypassing. 

You seem to be okay with people calling me all sort of things unrelated to gameplay. 

Maybe it's simply that you don't play enough.

Maybe you should just de-tune ch200 during your limited time, or do you prefer to cruise ch200 looking for something to feel offended about on someone else's behalf? 

Have you ever gone after players W, Y and Z dangling from my ankles with comments like below when I'm only speaking to player X?  Didn't think so.

Thanks shane for distinguishing yourself enough to become a target by others.   

I’m positive shane doesn’t understand why.

lofl, I totally understand why which is the reason you see me pushing back against podunk bs.   

You're a prime example.  You have nothing in this, yet here you are on my ankle which some typical weeb.

It sometimes makes trees look much larger. Always good for laughs though.

 Very good points you make 

In AH for some reason, I have huge confidence in the flight model. It corresponds to what I expect. Do you agree having compared it to others ?

I also would not want to sound like a paid advocate for AH but is there mixture of ground and air war to be found anywhere else than in AH without Ai ?

I personally would prefer an arena like AH axis v allies but not shootng at static models of fighting AI. I have flown DCS in Normandy but real fights were few and far between. DCS is also hugely demanding on a PC.

Fighting AI is drama free. If this board is a reflection on the in game drama these days no thanks.
