question to the AVA players

[grumpy37]

sorry about the failed escort attempt last night.  I tried to stay with you but Dot just wouldnt leave me alone!

[Dichotomy]

My squad was in last night.  I had a good time as usual but the sandman got me.

[Nr_RaVeN]

Keep one open.  

No need to lose it due to dishonorable text or actions.
 
Simply punish the offenders as needed.
 So far its been working since the law has cracked down.

No worries Grumpy I was actually reffering to a different event after the 17 attempt I ended up taking 2 of the bandits down last night but never made it home but it was all in fun then.

lol ya you pinged my 262 a few times, i just can't seem to slow down enough to land when i play rocketman ( i suck in them planes)    i thought i was slow enough just under 200 then front gear went poop and i was runway rash was a fun fight thou i think i got 1 of your 17's and a low treetop mossie (can't remember his name) before my suicidal landing

From my (relatively new in the AvA) perspective - keep channel 1, address any problems with those causing it. Despite my SA sucking worse than a 2 bit ho, my inability to shoot straight, lack of knowledge of acm etc every time I fly in the AvA arena, I have fun. Fun for me being in an unfamiliar plane (like the restricted plane set idea btw), fighting planes that are actually going to fight (no ho n run that I've seen thus far).

i think that those things had nose gear problems in real life.....the nosewheel was an afterthought. the original 262 was a tail dragger.

[TheBug]

just an fyi, and not trying to be a wise ass, as we always get along, and have good fun fights......but ya, they DO sling their crap without reason. i was on the receiving end of it sat. night, and have it on film.
 i responded politly, not by slinging crap back at him, and it continued, so i just stopped responding.

 i think it may have had somethign to do with me bnz'ing a certain jet that was bnz'ing.  

You must of been being a jerk CAP.  ImaDot is right, they are really great guys when you are all sweet to them.  The only reason they behave the way they do is all our fault.  Heck we even were such jerks we got them muted.

Fair enough...I'm just reporting what happens to me when I'm there.

hehe  yea i wasnt worried about dying to ya <S> heck planes are free that's the only reason i was flying them rockets, i lawndart landings everytime lmao

[Dawger]

if we were to eliminate ch1, then we could tune to 200 to chat amongst ourselves, as you've mentioned. the problem being, that so will those that wish to grief. now, we have to de-tune 200 in order to not see their poop, and STILL cannot easily chat with those we wish across chess piece lines.

 no......we simply need to stop feeding them, they get quiet when they get kilt....they get quiet when no one responds......

With channel 1 on there is no choice in the matter. Everyone HAS to see it.

And for the record, I'm not talking about the annoying posts only. Some people don't like to see cross country banter of any sort in historical arenas. I'm not one of them. I'm more one of those who likes common channels and I enjoy whipping Larry in a 1 v 1 and then destroying his 3rd grade logic on the text buffer.

But that doesn't mean forcing people to watch it is the right move for the arena.

[gyrene81]

gyrene's posts here are an excellent example of why you should turn off channel 1.

He feels it is his place to ridicule the idea that other people may not want to see a constant stream of juvenile behavior and he continues to demonstrate the inability to respect the wishes of others in his exchange with antivortex.

Uhhh excuse me? Talk about being way off base. I speak my mind without regard to yours or anyone else's opinions. If my words and my opinions bother you, tough.

ok....i hadn't thought about that part of it. 

[jimson]

People do seem to want to keep it on, so I'm thinking strict moderation of channel 1.

No banter, insults, taunting, "calling out" of players or complaining about other players tolerated.

Anyone violating this is told to take it somewhere else that is hidden from the public or can be detuned by others who want no part of it.
