Ive flown with AKAK a bit in the main arena and, despite being the most venomous poo flinging monkey on the forums, he is not a pilot lacking in skill, experience or a will to fight impossible odds.

Agreed.

Uhhh....riiiight.  I don't think you understood my post.

I mean I want to see interesting fights...   Not like we have now where 15 players swarm 1 poor sap (when there are plenty of other cons around)...each of them shooting over the shoulder of the other trying to steal the kill...then when they do down the poor fella, they boast on vox as if they actually accomplished something worth boasting about.

I've seen this too...I really don't understand why people work so hard for a good score....especially when it carries so little significance in representing actual skill.

But again...it's their $$ and if they want to spend it getting their name listed on the front page at the end of the tour...who am I to deny them that.  :rolleyes:

Huh, I've know AKAK for years. He comes in high, gets a kill or three, and dies once his E advantage is gone. Now, I'm not saying he isn't a good stick, once a 38 is low and slow it is a very appetizing target for the hordes.

I'm not sure about the venemous poo thing, lol. I know he's a racist but,  poo flinging...  hehehehehe.

If that's what you believe then you really don't know me or how I fly.  You've flown against me enough in AW and AH to know you're not telling the truth.  What you've described is more your flying style than mine.

Where's Fugitive's Movie, "The Vulchers"  when you need it!  That first part where they all start ranting about how they only got an assist in a 12 vs 1 is hilarious!!!!:aok

as we can clearly see our good friends the BoPs even horde on the BBS.  still I admire consistency and they are without a doubt a consistent bunch.

It isn't a result of the flux in new players.

Like xmarine said, they don't give a chit. It is a matter of self control, and most people flying do not have it.

Personally, I try to be conscious of the fact that there is another human flying that cartoon plane and how frustrating it is being on the receiving end of a 5v1.

Simple equation...

If you don't like it...don't do it.

And to the idea that if you do not like it go to the DA..

That's garbage. I suggest whoever is sporting that idea should go to the TA and learn how to fight.

And no. You don't know how to fight.

Well they don't call anything the Steveosphere.  I described how you fly.  You might not like it but obviously others must feel the same way or there wouldn't be an AKAKosphere. I know  the truth is hurtful sometimes, deal with it.

I called you a racist because you are a racist.  Here's one of your racist quotes:


Quote
It's funny seeing you "Gringos" whine about Hispanics taking over California and the Southwest,


 You're a racist.  Much like you are in denial about being an alt monkey, you seem to be about the fact that you are a racist.

I dunno. I don't think it's lack of self control, so much as lack of a clue. Maybe it's both. Agree with the rest though.
