I assumed when I joined the whole thing would be like axis v allies. Its an anathema to me two german planes fighting eachother. The planes evolved to fight the other countires planes not each other and this is part of the facination for me. Shure a free for all arena is a good idea but I thought A V A would be the most popular not the least.

When I get a fight in AVA it seems to be dictated by Channel 200 as in why did you do that why arnt ou doing this, you should learn how to do ACM'S better.

I want a realistic combat simulation for a bit of fun not some geek telling me how to play AH like he thinks it should be because he spends most of his life on here.

What are you talking about? Right know there is a BoB setup and unless the arena is porked its always Axis vs. Allies.


When I get a fight in AVA it seems to be dictated by Channel 200 as in why did you do that why arnt ou doing this, you should learn how to do ACM'S better.


Here is a great idea, detune 200 and you wont have to see that.

Then you shouldn't be playing in any arenas. There will always be people that tell you to do this or that but its up to you to listen to them or not. If you cant handle people like that then you should be playing an on line game.

From your two posts you I see you aren't here to ask why people dint fly the AvA. You are just here to stir the pot and get everyone pissed off at each other.

Sorry if I gave the wrong impression I would like more people to fly AVA its a bit boring when you are the only one on.

So I would like to know whhy more people dont I suppose and ideally would like to promote it somehow.

I find iots either empty or a series of duels between old lags.

One of the main reasons no one flies the arena is because no one flies the arena.


It may sound strange at first but its true. No one wants to go into an arena when no one is there to fight. Best thing to do is find someone that wants to go there in the MAs and fight them for a while. Most of the time when people see others in there they will check to see whats happening and if begins to snowball. The more people that are in the arena the more that go in.

I dont do all that Flouncy nonsense though Ive read many of these. Its all in the hope that someone will do some shallow soul searching and beg the particular jesse not to leave as they will be misses. All that obvious attention seeking not for me. I try to stimulate people to think not emotionally blackmail them.

 Anyway whats the beef I am trying to be constructive about A V A here I just dont like the people who fly in it  :rofl

Seriously I have had some great fightis in their but its also far too gentlemanly for my liking. If I see anyone haveing a nice little one on one I will join in if it suits me and if you dontlike it go to he TA.

Result Ill probably end up on my own again but I long for a proper A V A war and Ill be on in a couple of hours :rock
