I just noticed he got killed once. Probably yesterday. If he changes names again, that would support Lazydog's theory.

So this guy is the squadron's shade account pin cushion that they use to pad their scores?  Sad.

I'm not sure but Lazydog might be right; He might be trying to keep just 0 kills on his scoresheet. Neither of the other ghosts have been playing today but there's a "Zeus" up in MidWar today with the same sort of scoresheet and I don't seen any scores for him over the last two months, so he must have just changed names again.

He also got my attention by texting an unasked- for snide remark along the same lines of the comments he made to me the other day.

Also, Rodent57 seems familiar with him so he's been up before under that name, although I don't see any scores for him except for beginning of this tour. It looks like he must be changing user ids regularly to make it look like he's never been shot down. I guess the guy has some issues to deal with.

As an aside, I'm surprised he gets those type of usernames back. You'd think someone would of scooped them up before him.

Click on the Killed By links.

Roughly half (220 ish) of their deaths were by FBAaron.

FBAaron got some explaining to do...

34 kills in 12 sorties! hmmm!

i know someone that does that in 5 sorties, and they're all legitimate kills. guess that blows that theory!

No witch hunt. Remember what skuzzy said, he'll take that scoring sys away if we abuse it. I was only making a point that that is what some people use their 2nd accts. for. I probably should have used an old one that everyone already knew about as an example.

It sure seems like abuse, and I think some questions need to be asked, but if he's paying for the 2 accounts how do you handle a situation like that. Is it cheating, not my call and he's only scamming the scoring system it's not as if he's winning any prizes and in the long run he's only hurting himself and his credibility.
