too many repeat urbanlegand crap and belittle new players.

I can't remember what the 'eject' command was back in the old Air Warrior days,
but instead of alt f4 we'd respond with "E E E" or whatever eject was.

Pretty dang funny.

They only did that once...hehe.

-Surfer

That was "Esc-P for more power."    And it always worked.  You'd see the same guys who got burned by it using it on the next poor noob as soon as they could too, pretty funny.  But you only ejected, it didn't knock you out of the game.

[Shuffler]

That is the logic of someone wanting a fight.

You clearly have not read all of my posts, or do not understand what I'm saying.

Sorry did not read your other posts. By what your saying I take it that they vary greatly from the one I read then. There are quite a few that do interrupt game play by constantly picking when asked not to. I just chalk them up to the inexperienced not interested in learning their plane.

Yeah, or just ignorant and/or arrogant people. You can find them most anywhere especially on the internet these days.

what i try to do if i really want a 1-1 is to talk to the guy, and go to a non-populated part of the map. this works pretty well actually

But not flying to the biggest melee on the map and expecting a private duel, right?

If I see a countryman in trouble, I will dive in to swat the con off his six, I mostly ask him/her if they need a hand prior though. If they tell me to stay out I'll do that too, ...if they dont respond I auto dive,,(figure he's too busy). Heres a true story.....enemy cat in a 110 diving from 14k.....buddy low on my 10 o'clock,... I say "yo buddy low on my 10 o'clock, guess who's comming in his 110 from 15k?.....I say if ya need a hand lemmie know.....1 minute later, "Klink I need a hand...I go and smoke the 110 most riki tik,.....and the enemy has the gall to chew my butt out over helping my countryman.......please,......

Some people are just plain idiots, and then we have a select few who get banned as a paying customer. La créme de la créme. Top notch!

If your ally asked for help then the guy you picked whines at you, just defer blame to the ally who asked for help.

Whacking a set of buffs, seeing them in flames and about to go down, only to see someone inb on them at ramming speed to finish them off can get a tad annoying..
I can understand shufflers view also, you spend time working a con for guns and along comes the horde army doing 425 knts to pick then fly back up into the stratosphere.

Yup.  Generally if I get a call for help I'll just buzz the bandit so that he breaks off chasing the guy on my side.  Then I fly on, figuring that my guy got a break and a chance to turn things around.

Ya this is similar to running a guy down for a teammate. I do this.  You know, tell your teammate you'll "turn him"; force the bad guy to evade but not pull the trigger so your trailing teammate can finish what he started.

Right! That's why we have 30 cals.

[Chalenge]

I do that too Steve but sometimes I 'encourage' them to turn and they die.  What can you do? 

[33Vortex]

I love it when someone panic and go into the ground. Makes me laugh every time.

correct.

i still ask, even if i see a fight going on near a base, or a furball, and to be honest, i expect the same.

when i'm actually in the furball, then all bets are off.

[VonMessa]

It has always been drilled into me.

"Work from the top down"

A furball is where I see most of the whines about being picked. 

As you said, all bets are off in a furball.
