Keep in mind you're one of the best pilots and can survive more easily.

Many others can't do that yet so they will run to buds or ack to try and even the odds with an aggressive pilot.  Nothing wrong with that, for them.

Being looked at as a baby seal, getting shot down, having to reup and climb out to be shot down again without a bud or ack help can get frustrating until you become good.  It was for me at one time.

It is a combat sim, but even in real combat, having buds around you or in ship/field guns helping each other is valid.

I'll be glad to fight you as will others if you announce where you are on 200 when you can't find a good fight. :)
The best way to learn is from being beat. IMO

Shame shame shame for selectively reading my post.   Did you not see that a p47 and p38  and an LA7  upped?    To say the very least,  IF I chose to fight the LA7,  drained my E,   the P47 and P38 would have come right over.    Yea   3 vs.1    not  1 vs. 1  as you 'choose to believe'.      The fact is I was 1.5 sectors away from the nearest friendly fighter  and  had just enough   'E'  to climb away and get to a safe distance of only   1.0  when level 11k.       And yes,   I always outperform LA7s  at  11K,   always able to extend and equalize the fight slightly in my favor of performance.  Fight my own fight,  not the LA7's fight.     Don't need 15k to do that.

Oh and had just enough E to barely get turned around due south to RTB without the p47M getting within 1.5k      Smart use of E  and rtbed...  

Cough....  13K through 16.5 K has the worst performance of a P51D and no WEP...     11K  has plenty of  WEP and more than enough to walk away  when initial airspeed is less than 300mph.   I do it all the time against the LA7.    Next false argument?  Oh yes  'the game'.    So is Chess,  you don't really die  but you still  try to exploit your strengths to outsmart the adversary to win the 'match'.   Not lose the match (aka die).

<S>
My reading comprehension failed me on this one. I read ur post as the jug and 38 were rooks also. For whatever it's worth...I apologize.

Lighten up Francis

Two different time frames....        
Aha, so what exactly that happened what i suspected  :aok
Just not as easy to find the truth when there are 3 different people telling the same story in 3 different ways...

Insults now? How bout that squad duel I begged for months ago, can we revive that request. Curious to see how bad you'd get beaten even if half my squad went AFK for months.
Then again I was just trying to drum up some fun, squad duel with no score card, I see nothing has changed.

Squad duel? :)

Hell half your squad is already quitting the game(not afk buncha quitting satin wearers.),  think you can get em back? Also  what does a squad duel have to do with you smelling the joint up. LOL what a bunch of (name herding animal/schooling fish/swarming insect that tends to follow the leader) Lighten up  Frances.= you couldnt hold my jacques anyway.

Wait...you quoted your own comeback to say that it was good?  :headscratch: Not to mention if you think about that "comeback"...eww...nasty.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.
