I think this is the perfect time to let it be known that my famous "TEEN SQUELCH HACK" is available for only $.33. It now has a better GUI that allows you to add youngsters like EVZ with 2 clicks:)

You're just fickle. And you like to get slammed.  :D

Well I have been very open about my love of "slamming".   :D

     What the heck have you been smoking anyway?  Side switching makes no difference to any of the things you mentioned.
Loyality to a chesspiece?   Are you so certain that your chesspiece is the only one that values your beliefs?  Have you ever
switched?  You are not only voluntarily choosing to miss out on meeting almost 2/3rds of people playing the game, but you
want to enforce your point of view on everyone else as well?

     I think you landgrab win-the-war types need to take a chill pill and realize that what's critically important to you matters
not a whit to others. 

Rino I think the real issue is to find a way to perk punish tool shedders:)

Oh I just had an idea, let's flip this one around.  If you want to stay on your current country despite outnumbering the other country you're pounding on it's going to COST you perk points to do it.

oh I like this.  :)


Soulyss I would like to invite you to join the Supreme Ruling Council............

??? MAYBE ??? a PERK TAX should be charged to anyone SWITCHING SIDES in a MAIN ARENA ??? Any such TAX would be figured on a % basis ... Want to switch sides? OK, it will cost you 30% of your perk points ... This would DEFINATELY put a crimp in the perk farming, Spying, and ENY manipulation that Occurs on a regular basis ... Flame Suit Mode initiated.

You don't understand! People can simply talk to each other no mater what side their on! I call it the Back Channel!

What needs removing is the PM function across sides in game and the ability for squad members to talk to each other on vox, or anybody else, if not on the same side.  That will cure it  :aok

Your opponents will say well they will just use the phone  or the `oingobox or whatever...

I say fine let them ring up the phone bills. Let them hassle with the Roger Wilcox every time they want to enter the game or whatever.  ;)

Don't provide a way for people on different sides to talk in game! It's stupid and causes problems.

Wanna talk go to the O'Club if you cant be on the same side or say it on 200!

 That includes you Phan and Silat  :t

How about this?  How about you can only switch countires once per map???  If you start out on one map and you switch countries you are stuck there until the map changes.  When the map changes you can change to any country you want then you get only one change.  I think this keeps it simple but allows you to change just not jump around as game the game.
As Grumpy says, most in midwar might support this just to end the Scams ... I think the PERK TAX concept is less restrictive and better for everybody, especially the Noobs who aren't sure where thay want to be and the responsible switchers who have valid reasons for changing. It wouldn't suprise me if most in LWA supported it too ... I gather Skuzzy has a constant stream of reports and complaints from that arena.

I see the SILLY SQUAD has gotten active ... didn't realise the training arena was such a hotbed of perkies ... It's amusing to see people accuse me of Paranoia ... If they manage to pull their heads out ... of the sand, maybe they'll see what's going on ???

A much cleaner fix would simply be to restrict the ability to use perk points to the arena they were earned in.  If you farm the Mid War Arena for perk points I hope you like Typhoons and Spitfire Mk VIIIs.
