Slade,

I do believe that proxies should be awarded, entirely basing that opinion on the amount of folks that bail to avoid combat.  If those types of proxies could be discriminated, then I would even go along with perks awarded and kills scored against the bailing player.

It's fine the way it is.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

My question context is: were proxies kills awarded in this manner in real life (IRL)\WWII?

Thanks,

Slade  :salute

Yes.

During the war if you were actually a participant, wouldn't you report a kill if you saw an enemy crash, he's dead and can't say either way. That being said the system is fine the way it is. Oh yea you can up another plane, its just a game and this really is not that big of an issue.

No, not unless I caused him to make a mistake that led to his crash. I would know it wasn't a real kill

I agree that the system is fine though.

If I auger it's my own fault.  Always.
