I don't really care if I win. I've already admited he was most likely better than me. To think all this started because I said a lot of the EW and some of the MW planes were outclassed by LW rides.


Edit: Ack Ack, I'll let you know when I get back on so we can set a date and time for our duel.

actually, you called those that flew in the EW and MW tools for no reason other than insult those that choose to fly in those arenas.

About all they will be good for is the tools who hang out in EW/MW arena, and scenarios. Past that, most of them will be outclassed by LW rides. I know some MW/EW planes have earned a place for themselves in the LW arena, but still you don't see hoards of Huricane MkIIC's around.

That gives no reason for my insult. I've said before, they ran to the far side of the arena, or loged out when I came near. For that, they are tools. Had I given them some reason to avoid me, then I could see some sense in their actions, but as I had just logged on, and went to the nearest base with friendlies at it, I hadn't given them any such reason.

Chalange...if you call 300+ people in the FSO and 200+ in scenarios a "very small part of AH"...I'd hate to see what you consider the big part of AH. And no, the B-29 would have no impact on the pocketbook of HTC...especially if it's perked like it should be. You don't seriously think there would be sudden higher retention of "2 weekers" just because of the B-29 do you? If you do, I have a really nice piece of land in southern Louisiana I could sell you...complete with a beautiful waterfront view.

Yes I think those areas (FSO and scenarios) are a very small part of AH because they are not ongoing on a day-to-day basis. Yes I think the 'cool factor' of a B-29 in AH would hold interest a lot longer. Now if you think the younger set is not attracted to this I have some quality hotel property in Bohol to sell you.

Nemisis stop digging the hole is plenty deep enough. Just appologise for the broad brush coment.
EW does have a specific group that run from a fight though.

Challenge sir with all due respect I have to disagree.

FSO with its 500 + crowd 3 out of 4 friday nights is in many respects a bigger draw than the main.

I could list several squadies just off the top of my head who no longer fly in the main.
But who keep an acct with HTC just for FSO.

People in the main come and go, crowd is always changing. People in FSO tend to be very very loyal, and stick around for years and years. In its way it can have just as big an impact as main arena pilots.

FSO does not attract new customers and yes for the very reason it only happens once a week it is a very small part of AH and the numbers that take part dont make any difference its still just once a week AND by the very rules of FSO new people cannot take part in it.

Everyone in there (the usual crowd anyway) runs from a fight but if they know there are Lancasters in the air they will all give chase deep behind enemy lines and die just to try and 'ruin their score' as they put it. You have to love noobs!  :D

Sorry but you're reaching for some semblance of fact...bad news...the "cool factor" of the fighters draws and retains more players than any other factor...do you have a marketing degree from a tech school or something?

Try again.

You are funny gyrene but your lame attempt at a put-down FAILS. Fighters are what you and I and most of the purists hold dear but kids dont look at it that way. This is why you get so many kids in the game that will come back time after time strafing the CV and dive bombing GVs with Lancs. You dont understand it (obviously) and I dont either but this is what they want... the B-29.

I appologize to those that won't run to the other side of the arena when someone new logs in, past that I stand by what I said.

how can we bring the sheep back when you keep asking for some more planes.  let the developers spend their time to model the new sheep properly, sheesh where's your priorities.  B29 or sheep now which one adds more to the game.  :neener:

you dont want me to ho, dont point your plane at me.
