Reality has left the AvA
« on: June 25, 2008, 02:21:54 PM »
Talk about a toolshedders delight, on a day like today not a single plane would have flown during the war in these conditions. Why not add ufo's with laser beams to hover over a target and pork with glee? I used to be able to come and find decent fights, when you start to cater to the scrubs you'll have a tough time bringing in anything but.

I think this may be needed for future AvA discussions. It is nice when trolls reproduce.

well the good news is that from this point forward the place can only get better, it really has no other choice.  sad to read commentary like this especially in what once was the premier arena to find a fight.  I guess this is living proof of what occurs when leaders cater to the whims of the least common denominator.

don't worry VWE this too shall pass.

Umm.. This does produce a delicate and difficult dilemma. Who is going to tell the 50 plus players on last night enjoying true inflight weather conditions that they weren't really having a good time, poor misguided dweebs that they are, they actually thought they were enjoying themselves.

Actually we couldn't get over at how great it was last night with Chili behind us in a b17 and I was in the tail gun of Old Bulls 17  , Watching 109's and 190's dropping in from behind the black hole sun , At first they where just little dots in the clouds ,then they would disappear. For a good 1/2 hour you where not in a game but you felt as if you where there. The weather,clouds at times got other people disoriented to the point forcing you to use instruments .  When it was all over with I realized how much better this arena gotten already  and its definitely going to get better

Hats off and a  :salute to the staff and whoever was in the 109 and 190 last night

Well said Bull. All I can remember when we first came into AH was how strange it seemed that such a well set up arena would draw only 10 to 15 people a night....and over the entire map, all of the activity (as little as it was) took place in one grid.... It seemed like such a waste. I mean, it was nothing more than another duelling arena.
Now there are 60 plus a night having a miserable time enjoying themselves.
As for weather conditions.....it makes it different and keeps it new.

RAP---was unreal .The weather has put a whole new twist to it .
No longer can you bomb straight out when ever you want .
You can not just go look for a fight , you have to find it then when you think you find them
you can fly right over or under an enemy and not even know it .
Wind aspect is incredible on all points of flight.

All we need now is snow,sleet or rain and we will be complete I think.

Imagine having wings ICE up on you .

Hope to see you on  :salute

Just curious VWE.....how "realistic" is it to up from a field and meet the enemy half way to his field INTENTIONALLY? Even better yet, how realistic is it to plan such a meeting on an open frequency? Reality has left the AvA? Seems to me a bit more reality has entered the AvA....
