How about instead of "WTG"
« on: August 13, 2007, 05:19:04 PM »
Ok guys WTG's are great but I'm wondering with the creativity I know we have here if we can come up with other " slaps on the backs".....for example if someone lands 5 kills in a 190..we could say "very Shawk like!"
............others?

WTG is over-used. Somebody gets 2 kills it's all "WTFG!!!!!" on text. C'mon... Not to belittle folks, but 2 kills? That's nice.

That's also what I say: "Nice"...

I'll vary my response with the level of accomplishment Right around the 5 kills mark is when i start saying "WTG"...

How about anything over 5 kills we tell them to stop making the rest of us look bad.

I often say grats to some people after landing, but none of the people I say it to need it, nor do I really like it done to myself.  I usually respond with a ty just to be polite.  

I think it is with a different attitude if you said it to someone who you were fighting, in which you knew was facing many nme, and got a handful of kills and fought is way out of the bucket.

Alot of times, when you see people landing many kills, it's all just spawn camping and vulching....wtg them if you like, I'd prefer not.

Some of the most rewarding sortie's I've flown have not been 10+ kill ones, It's been the ones with 1 or 2 kills against some great pilots.  It's not the number, it's the quality.  getting a wtg for pwning noobs, spawn camping, ganging, cherry picking and vulching just futher degrades the meaning.  I think some use for virtual butt kissing as well.

just my opinion

2 kills is a big deal in the current lw arena setup
providing you can get away from spit16 and la7`s
anyone who can do that deserves it imo
plus its a show of kindness and respect
