If bombers bail without damage from enemy projectiles they should get no perks, and proxie kills go to the closest enemy within the grid.

I like the idea of perked bombers
perked drones.
The first bomber is free, you pay the perks for the other 2 planes. The first loss is free, you get your perks refunded for every bomber more than 1 that lands.

All perked planes are free if you land them  :old:

..... and yet, in the old days, that is one of the things that pushed new players to learn to fight better. Calling out the HOers soon taught those players not to HO and to learn better ways to approach a fight. The same could be said about lawndarters and alt monkeys.
it did/does----  hmmmm I will ho your plane into little tiny pieces, do you think calling/cussing me out on 200 is gonna bother me hehehahahoho
I don't think so.

I have a hypothetical question for those suggesting awarding kills to closest pilot if someone in a bomber bails out of an undamaged bomber. If someone ups from a rear base and decides to bail out in order to defend another base and they are two sectors from the nearest enemy base should a random pilot get kills? Because that's what it sounds like you are implying. And if so the same should happen with fighters. Player A ups with bombs accidentally to go help against a base take attempt. Instead of rtb he just bails to get the correct loadout. Should Player B a full sector away get that kill?

For the record I don't bail out of bombers if an enemy is in range. I actually cut throttle so they can catch up. I like nothing better than landing my damage plus kills.

nope not at all I don't bail.. but that's up to me--I believe if someone wants to bail that's up to them.
you just so pizzed at the BP"s because they won't let you shoot them down.
it's so funny all these threads and post's about what to do to people who pay play their way and not your way.

whiner's and cry baby's you all are.

Sure.  Why not?  If they take a death/capture, nearest pilot gets the kill.

If you don't recognize "poor sportsmanship" by now well.............

Because to me that's what this is all about.  Yes it's a game, but in every game there is "playing within the rules" and then there is "playing within the rules with good sportsmanship".



As an example:

The rules say "If you kick a guy in the nads and do not get caught there is no penalty"

Sportsmanship says "Don't kick a guy in the nads"

I have bailed many a bomber just because I got bored.  the fighter took 20+ minutes at least to get into position by then I just said I dont have the time.  I would rather be somewhere else.

I can only imagine the butt hurt from the fighter only folks when they bail two sectors from the action and player xyz gets the kill, who is sitting in the bomber hanger with his engine off.....
