Personally, if you check my score you'll see I very rarely land, but then again that goes along with the honor/class thing. Why wouldn't you let someone land? Wheres the fight in killing a guy with his flaps out and his gear down dropping like a rock to the runway? Maybe you need the kill to get layed later in the week, but personally if there isn't a fight, I wouldn't bother. Have I vulched, sure, but more often than not I like to see them get a bit of speed up so they have a chance. If 6 other guys are diving the runway, well they don't often get that far.
It's all in how YOU want to play the game. I preach my way to any one who will read it. You on the other hand may be looking to get a longer list of kills each month, or more of certain names on that list. What ever, as long as we are having fun. Like it was said above, don't expect it, and you can be pleasantly surprised when you get it.
In this game I'm the same as I am in real life, no "persona" here. When I play golf and shoot a 95, my scorecard doesn't say 72. I don't have to be the top scorer and prove anything to any body. I'm here to have some good battles, and when I run into a like minded individual we do. Some NEED that satisfaction of a good score, or their name in lights. I love to be able to limp home in my beat up bird and NOT have to worry about some clown picking me as I belly in, but thats the way it is these days.... got to have that one more kill to look good to the peanut gallery!
