My thoughts
I understand why vulching and HOing is considered a bad behaviour. To be honest I have done both myself for one reason or another, not proud of it. I understand vulching when a base is being attacked for capture. If you want new players to behave then set an example and remain calm and polite. Angry messages and calling someone a noob will not help imho. I used to read a lot of war stories about WW2 pilots. In books and movies two fighters approaching head to head with guns blazing is often described as an exploit of bravery or normal start of combat.
Do not salute if someone HOd/vulched and you did not have a good fight. If the same player gets you another time in a decent fight salute or send a private message and praise the guy for having a decent fight instead of a head on or something like that.
If someone behaves in a way that is commonly considered bad and you can`t resist texting, explain politely. The community wants to draw in new players, but I think too much is expected from them at first. There are slogans like "best WW2 combat experience online", "free two week trial" on homepage. It can be expected that newcomers jump right into the action without knowing the controls or the arena etiquette. If the two week trial is running it is too late to tell someone to go to the training area etc, because time is running. Many start the trial period unknowingly and want to get the max online experience out of it.
I do not understand one thing.
Some guys as expressed before want frequent missions and squad action that creates a more colloquial environment; both a camaraderie as well as a culture of behaviour and excellence, group play etc. At the same time some squads like the V dudes and others are insulted and said to be using numbers to win the war instear of skill and good game play. How does that come together. You want squad operation and missions, but insult squads and players that do missions.
The crying about the channel 200 is something of a mystery to me. I have never used it and probably never will on the basis of what I have read in the forum. If you do not like what is going on in there, select another channel. There are supposed to be channels 200-299 to choose for chatting with friends from other countries and also an option to send private messages.
In my opinion the experienced guys should review their behaviour first if they want a better gaming culture and retain the trial period players. I have seen some unjustified insults towards newcomers. In the interest of good gaming culture it might be a good idea to use less vox after having one too many refreshment drinks (not a frequent issue).
