There is simply tactics. Not everyone shares your objective. Likewise, they won't share your tactics.

Don't expect for a moment that you can prove your manhood in the arena.

It's a video game. Nothing more.


There is no fear ? ... I beg to differ. If there was NO FEAR, then why the heck not turn around and engage .... instead of escaping to the nearest field or pack of friendlies ? ... cause they fear dieing a virtual death ... they fear the possibility of someone calling them a "newb" on CH 200 ... etc.

If this is JUST a game, then they need to treat it as such ... grow a cheekbones and mix it up ... nothing lost ... nothing gained if you win or lose. It's really not that hard of a concept.

What's up with the bravery, heros, eithcs ? ... no one is discussing that ... we are talking about RUNNERS !!! Next think ya know, you'll start talkin' politics and world affairs.

I don't know about that.

Amongst the players who've been around a while there is trust, commaraderie, sacrifice, and so on. Granted it's not of blood and sinew, but there is a reason friendships formed in AW, WB, and AH have grown beyond the game and lasted so long.

And there are those in the MA who have ethics. The problem may be that those who hold themselves to some kind of code are in the very small minority now.

The game is what you make it.

Yes I've had an epiphany, I agree with Slapshot now , I am going to start flying nothing but a Zeke, so everyone turn fight with me and don't try to dis-engage (run) or E Fight me, ever, please! I'm begging! Fight my way or i'll cry ad nauseum on the BBS and on 200 until the end of time until the day everyone starts playing the way I want them to because I am too stubborn to adapt! ;) Grow a cheekbones everyone! Please!

I have a cheekbones and it works fine thankyouverymuch. This is little more than another, "Fly my way" whine.

Hmmm... grow a cheekbones... don't run... turn and fight. You imply that to do otherwise is cowardice. Cowardice being the opposite of bravery. Do they still teach English in school?

LOL ... your OCD would not allow it. If you ever got into the TnB thing, you would start "ticking" all over the place ... you wouldn't be able to fly at all.

Can't argue this. I've been flying with the same guys forever. Some of us started flying online when it was just 1v1 and games like Aces High were unimagineable.

Nope ... its simply a ... "turnaroundandfightyabiggrapef ruit" whine

Hmmm... grow a cheekbones... don't run... turn and fight. You imply that to do otherwise is cowardice. Cowardice being the opposite of bravery.

Again with the cowardice and bravery stuff ... listen carefully ... THERE IS NO SUCH THING IN ACES HIGH. That stuff is reserved for real life scenarios not virtual worlds.

Your either one who "fights" or one who "runs" ... your scared or your not. Simple.

Do they still teach English in school?

Wow ... classic quote ... I'll have to remember this one to use in another post at the appropriate time so I can be as cutting and witty as you. Can I use it with your permission ?

Slapshot do you like to cash geos? I mean do you and the boys at IBM pass the time with some good old fashion Geo Cashing? Hell honkey, I think I might pass out from the freakin intesity that this activity would bring.

I dont see how Mr Dot Doubly Dot can handle that chit. Amazing. My hero to say the least.

Btw, dont you have some political analyzing to do in the Oclub Mr Dot Doubly Dot? I am humbbled by you're presence. You "big dogs" (roflmfao) in the oclub as you put it, are just too cool for me. I mean how could someone compete with a middle aged Geo Casher like you?

Let me see if I understand. There is no cowardice and there is no bravery (hmmm sounds vaquely familiar somehow), but there is fear.

Okey dokey. Have it your way.

You'd like to think that, but it doesn't diminish what a snot nosed punk you are.

Grow up. Boy.
