For the most part there is NO HONOR in the MA. From the HO dweebs that use no tacits to the influx of 12 year olds who insist of shooting chutes. Im gonna pull a quote off Delta six's website under "Etiquette of air combat."
"As I've said, here recently I've seen some things that make me cringe at the thought of someone doing something that doesn't sit well with most people. During WW2 several hundred pilots actually killed men in parachutes. To me this is the gravest of dishonors; the man has been removed as a threat, he has no real weapons [maybe a pistol] yet you still insist on killing him. There is no reason for it, and certainly no honor in it, yet some still insist on shooting a man in a chute.
As in any war, there are rules. None official but damn near every pilot follows them just to be fair. Fairness in battle might seem odd to most but in several hundred cases it has happened. I won't list any of them here, but I will give you some general rules to fly by in order to keep all things fair.
1. Never shoot a man in a parachute. He's already given up, is most likely scared, confused, and worried so don't kill him. If he dies in the aircraft then he dies, but never shoot a man in a chute. The only exception to this is if you see a pilot killing people in chutes you may outright kill him for lack of respect. In a flight sim, all you do is get him back in the tower faster. This means if he bails out at 15,000 feet and you kill him, he'll be back up shooting at you in a few minutes. So leaving him in his chute actually helps you by keeping him floating down and not in the cockpit of a fighter.
2. If you see a heavily damaged plane don't attack it. The pilot is trying to find a place to ditch, and also trying to keep his machine in the air so don't kill him for it. The universal sign for a damaged aircraft [or one low on gas] is landing gear being lowered. If you see a plane blowing smoke with the gear down the pilot is trying to survive, and maybe save his machine so he's not going to attack. If he does attack he deserves to be shot down.
3. Aircraft that are trying to land are NOT targets by any definition of the word. Aircraft that are taking off are considered by some [not me] to be fair targets. If a pilot is trying to land leave him alone. He won't try to kill you on a landing approach, so don't go after him when he's low and slow.
4. If you happen across a damaged aircraft flying home, don't fire. Again the pilot is trying to save his life and maybe his machine so don't kill the man. I've actually escorted enemy pilots of damaged aircraft home before, and I've been thanked for it on several occasions. This common courtesy is extended by some pilots, but others just want the kill and shoot first. If you want to be killed outright this is a good way to go, because after word gets back that the aircraft you nailed was damaged there's gonna be hell to pay.
5. Ramming another plane will get you killed by everyone very quickly. Collisions happen in dogfights, and pilots understand this. But to intentionally ram another aircraft is not only a cheap way to gain a kill, it makes you more enemies than you'd ever imagine. I've collided with other aircraft, and on every occasion we understood each other; by the time we'd figured out that we were going to collide we already hit. So don't fly too close in formation, and don't try to get the best angle on a shot when you're very close. You just might hit the guy.
Sorry about that"

I feel very strongly about Lamos and Dweebs who pull stupid stunts like this. I believe you (the perp) to be a 12 year old child who has no sense of honor and humility. I think your mommy and daddy should have done a better job of raising you.
Each and everytime im killed in a chute you better believe that i will pitch a bitsh over channel 1. And i really dont care what yall think of me when i do it. And if it is a rise your looking for outta me, killing my poor defensless chute is an easy way to get me to RAZZ you over ch 1. SO DONT DO IT. its not kewl
And here is a special message to STURMER and that DMD fellow who chose to MAKE IT THEIR BUISNESS when i was calling out for the dude who killed my chute. Defending chute killers and HOers makes you just as arrogant and dishonorable as the chute killers and hoers. I have NO respect for you whatsoever or anyone who pulls schitt like this. Squelch me if you want, you just temper my resolve that much more. And you can expect alot more mouth outta me if you do so. So ill remind you dweebs one more time....
MIND YA OWN FREEKIN BUISNESS and there will be no problems.
One thing i can say about the MA is there is no honor or very little at any rate. I can be mouthy or i can simply start shooting EVERY GD CHUTE I SEE. This would put me down on your level and i would be no better then you (the chute killer). Does it make you feel big? special? I have a feeling that once you BALLS drop you youngans will figure it out eventually. Some of us take this game way to seriously, but what else do we have if we want to experience WW2? nothing
Learn to respect your fellow pilots and not pick fights (killing chutes is fighting words) Stop this newbie dweebish BS and when someone is pisstoff about their chute being shot at by an F4U, if your not the PERP either stay outta it or be supportive. If its nona beezwax then dont open your ckskr.
Point: dont wanna hear us whine? dont want to read fights over ch1? then dont do stupid schitt like this and dont open yer mouth when your valuable effin opinion is not asked for. Also, if chute killin is that much fun perhaps ill start killin your chutes and ill hear YOU whine. It aint gonna take much more for me to go onna rampage in the MA about this crap. So be warned and cut it out, its not shway and it shows your true mental state. As for my mental state...its justa about gone and holding back is something im not used to doing.
turnabouts is fairplay you chute killers have been warned and i am keeping a tally so you better hope i dont shoot ya down cause i will kill your chute as a matter of selfish revenge. And to anyone who thinks its funny to razz someone pistoff about it heres a nice big FU in advance.
to everyone else who is respectable please forgive the profanity as i am pretty upset about all this crap
