Back to the 1 Hour Side Switching Rule

-1

Please do not change this back to 1 hour.  Spies are one thing.  Spies taking control of an entire task force is another.

+1  I wish folks would realize that tg contol is about as fair as it can be the way things are now.

I honestly cannot remember the last time someone from another country's major squad switched sides just to control a CV. Yes one or two random idiots will do that, but they get called out for it just like those who vulch a second account.

so you are ok with being stuck in one country after all.  me I will go to whichever country the pigs go.  I have friends in all 3 countries, some of whom I have never flown with but nevertheless we are still friends.  and switching to the lowest country doesnt even guarantee that you will find the "fight" that you like.

that is the truth.  I used to switch countries back when it was one hour and 1/2 the time we would switch to a country that was worst that the one we just came from.  to be honest we never switch countries to "help" anybody, we switched to get even easier kills to the easy ones we were already getting.  and it was never about the fight or to help the low side bs it was about the kills.  now that i dont switch and I havent in about 2 years, I really have no trouble finding a fight.  I can just as easy fly with a horde or against horde or just a few on a few.  you cant bs and tell me that it's hard to find any kind of fight.  unless of course I play on a different aces high that you guys do.

and the "spy" thing is always being brought by the guys who want to shorten the time switch.  rest of us couldnt care less with one exception, specially me.  it gets old helping a guy fighting next to you only for him to go land switch and kill you as you are about to land.  that is the only reason I hate people who switch.

and it was never about the fight or to help the low side bs it was about the kills.

But... by getting the kills you're helping the low side, and you're finding the kind of fight you want.

Most of what I see HTC do has thought put into it, and pretty clear reasons behind it.  I just can't see any benefit to having 12 hour side switching.

No, people who say nobody should ever be able to switch, should be randomly assigned and never be able to switch so they can see what it's like.. I'm more ribbing the ridiculous country loyalty you hear from time to time ie. "started a bish, always a bish!". which is BS. they had a choice.. I can only imagine the whines from them if they were sent to another country and not allowed back to their normal green country.

I have friends in all 3 countries also. I went lone wolf a year or so ago, because I realized my objectives were diverging from the squad's.  less desire to take bases, hating ganging up on the weak strategically and tactically.. so now I mostly spend time killing vultures who forget to deack first with said ack.  So I'd want to be on a country actively being attacked.

see the thing is that just because you switch to the low side it doesnt mean you will find any kills.  I learned that 2 years ago when I used to switch.  I switched to the side that will give me easier kills than what I was already getting.

so you mean to tell me that at any one time there is a country that isnt being attacked?   i smell bs, cant see it but sure can smell it.

The change back to the 12 hour rule has nothing to do with spying.

ack-ack

Doesn't mean it hasn't had a negative impact on those that spied by switching countries.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

most of the community don't want anyone to switch.

Has anyone identified a single spy, much less this mass of spies that are so pathetic in that they think you are winning the war in AH?    What are they spying on?  Are they in Silat's closet again?  Letting air out of the tires of Spitfire drivers?  What's their crime?  And who are they?  I really want to know so I can laugh loudly at them for taking this so seriously as to think it matters enough to 'spy'
