Kudos and the dive catch Anton. Comon Mars, first off, might i say bish dont come down to fight, they come down to auger into the ground hoping they got a few off into a strat or hanger. But back to you, the past 2 weeks or so, I have been in many a fight with you and your friends. Granted it is usaully me and a few squaddies against you and few others, but mostly they are fun fights. Where were you last night when there was a 30K+ Jug raid on Rooks HQ? In point, every side has its alt monkies and ground straffers.

Yes Steve there are people on all sides that do climb to god awful altitudes, I guess they are up there just getting some alone time lol.  

No kidding.  

But as a trend this is what I have expierienced in the MA as of late, and they always seem to be Rooks.  Especially on the maps where the bases are too far apart.

Yeah rgr that JB42,

You guys, although always come in higher are not at crazy alt and engage, thank god.  Great fights!  And that is the main reason I tried not to say all rooks.  But as of late, it seems, the majority of your country men like the thinner O2.

Yeah I wanted to fly last night but the girfriends carckin down.  Soimething about "you better start spending more time with me and less time flying at that potato peeling computer"  lolh.

Sorry mars, but I spent a couple hours last night dodging P-51s.  It's not any one country that predominantly does this... all do it.

Mars buddy, maybe you have just been fighting rooks a lot lately?
Rooks definitely have their share of alt lovers.  Heck, I used to be one of those guys at 15-20k.(sometimes still go that high if I'm the lone guy heading for the full  darbar). I really think there are alt lovers on all sides.  Maybe just a coincidence you've experienced(shrug)

Simshell's first post if really pretty funny... there's hypocricy and contradictions all over it.

Now is this EVERY single rook....most of the Rooks....the preponderence of the Rooks you've personally engaged or what? Just curious as generalities tend to discredit those who use them.

Do I really have to explain everything to you people?

The bestest most talented fighter doods occupy the 20k to 30k alt belt....the rest of us are quakers.

If you never leave your country how do you know that members of your country dont do it too?

If you only fly for one country you dont notice the people FROM your country doing the exact things you complain about. Being a habitual country switcher I can tell you that Toad is correct and every country has roughly equal amounts of Alt Monkeys, weed wackers, suicide fuel porkers, good pilots, bad pilots, yada yada yada. Maybe at a particular moment one may have more than the other, but on balance trough a 24hr period I doubt any one country has more than the other.

Dont believe me? Defect to another country some time and see for yourself.

Yeah Steve, you guys are right.

There are.  No doubt about it, but that doesnt fan the flames here :D.

Lately I have been a spit dweeb staying below 10k trying to get my reversal just right, so I can actually shoot the guy when he goes flying by lol.  So I have been hanging my prettythang out there alot waiting for some alt monkeys to take the bait.  So that definatly has added to my feelings of being the lowest guy on the alt scale.

I have run into alot of timidity on both sides tho.  Is timidity a word?:D   Me and Bush makin up words.  Yeah Baby.

See post by MotorOil, that one on one was 40K+.  I tried to engage that, knit or Bish bastage just wouldn't come down!  So this is not a Rook thing.  At least the Rook will engage.

Now I ask you, why would you come into a fight disadvantaged?  It's called simple tactics.  Guy with altitude dictates the battle.

infact when im flying my yak and i dive on a 190D-9 or P51 its funny to watch them act like dolts not knowing what to do they try everthing to not fight me in a 1v1!!! they try doing a loop and then trying to make a run for it  or pretend to fight me then try to escape and then i mow them down in my great yak-u


High alt is usually a result of either a big map or front line enemy base fuel porkage.  Fast planes + big fuel tanks = get to the fight quicker than in a Spitfire, 109, etc. and still be able to have enough fuel to dogfight for awhile.

If you're in a Yak and they're in a D-9 or stang, chances are all they can do is run away.  If they loop, the Yak will have them.

Timidity is out there no doubt. I'm a pretty easy kill right now, but you would be surprised (maybe not) at how often by flying aggressively (recklessly?) I will cause people to not engage even when they are in a superior position. Then again if its someone good they dont even think twice, they go for the throat and I die with extreme rapidity. If the timid only knew....

Its amazing to me that some premadonna has the gall to gripe about the tactics about other players, I play different styles depending on my mood or squad ops, I fly ever type of aircarft in the inventory and try to get the best situation for every aircraft,
I too have my fustration < LA 7 > running down everthing In the arena. but thats AH, sometimes I even up a Jug and go 30k behind the enemy base to catch some napping dweebs cruising to alt got a tempest the other day doing that , made my day :D
but why would you ridicule some one for using effictive tactic's?
just sound like some folks can't adapt to anything but a low level furball, not that there is anything wrong with that but it gets old for me. so keep checking  you six or ur tail my fall off :p
