I guess I just don't get it.. he's really not that influential to the game for me I admit I've never been a victim of his bullying but there are tools in this game that I can use to counter that nobody but me and me alone could have the power to ruin my game play..

Also on a side note, now I have to know who PalaceCobra is??? Earlier in this thread he claimed to “present” and witness for an in game interaction I had with Vraciu (A positive one!) but then several places in this thread he says he no longer plays the game.

Which is it???

Yes I noticed that as well. Said he was there for your interaction but days later said he has not played in a long time. The lies continue to pile up.

He still has spellcheck.

People with dyslexia tend to turn that off. Trying to guess the correct spelling of a red-highlighted word seven times in a row - incorrectly - really is the Purple Pim.  :old:

Is skyyr really that influential to you guys to your game play?

In general / broader discussion targetting other players is very influential on their gameplay. Not right is it?

Hello scott66. I hope you are well, sir.

With reference that your (pre-edit) comment that you don't get it, I thought I'd take a moment to try to enlighten you, and some others, on what myself and several others players have to put up with now that Skyyr no longer tries to be ingonito, is as brazen as ever, and has recruited other, similarly-minded "kill=win" types to join in his efforts.

Imagine, if you will, that every time you log on for your all-to-limited moments of leisure, to be immediately harrassed and antagonized by another player, or players. Keep in mind that the aforementioned uses nefarious methods, including cross-country 3rd party comms and multiple accounts, to stalk certain individuals. He will switch sides, or fly across entire countries in order to be able to hunt his obsessions.

It is very obvious to me, since as soon as my presence is announced via the kill or chat log, invariably there is a 400kts+ 190/La7 screaming down towards me, bypassing numerous other legitimate and often more dangerous targets, spraying cannons in my general direction.

Without getting into the various methods by which he can pinpoint which plane I am approximately or even specifically, you might think that I could just move to a different part of the map, or fly something other than an F4U. Perhaps climb over 20k from back field... maybe switch skins, or go GVing. Isn't having to do that that the very essence of "affecting my gameplay"?

Now don't get me wrong. I am all for the fights, and especially enjoy engagements with players that are equal to or better than me. But we are not talking about 1v1, co-alt duels here. We're talking getting vulched in a furball by a plane that you wouldn't expect to attack because it doesn't make situational sense, and to be shot in the face with cannons on every single merge. It makes it near impossible to actually get involved in the day-to-day MA furballs, because you know that the moment that you slow down or engage another plane, your stalker(s) will use that as their opportunity to take their pick.

Of course, once you have been shot down, your next sortie is disadvantaged and you're easy to track down again.

As a result, you cannot go about your normal business of having fun. You constantly have to prepare to engage these same people, and look over your shoulder for the planes that really should not be a threat, to go far out of their way to come after you.

The bottom line is that this person is obsessive, antagonistic, and from what I can surmise, sociopathic. No one wants to have to deal with that in any part of life, and certainly not during the time they make available to themselves for rest and relaxation. Throw in the fact that he is a persistant presence by playing hundreds of hours per month, it can obviously have a significant impact on one's enjoyment of the game.

As I've said before, I understand that sometimes people want revenge, and seeking out certain players for whatever reason is a common part of the game. But there comes a point where it is beyond reasonable, and becomes purely obsessive.

I won't get in to the demeaning people on YouTube, but I hope this helps you understand where I'm coming from, and one of the many reasons why I think this player should never have been allowed back in this game.

Isn't there a squad or two of these kinda guys? Two squads come to mind.
One that seems to or used to mostly fly ponies
and the other one that seems to or used to mostly fly yaks.

Heh I had that over the weekend. I traded a few kills with him (admittedly he had a couple more over me), but each time I killed him he would come after me with such obsession others were easily able to pick him off. I think he ended up blathering on 200 about k/d from others comments - but I had him muted. It was funny, the guy has a glass ego. I kind of feel sorry for him.

howdy Simon..I truly appreciate you breaking it down for me I would also like to apologize for any misunderstanding I'm not one of his cheerleaders nor do I particularly care for the way he talks about the players he fights but it's his channel. I came to this game in Feb 03 and BBS later on and just never seen 1 Individual affect so many players before.. forgive my ignorance sir <S>

Scott he is a mental case and a dick on top of it all.  If there is one person he loves more than Simon, it's me.

I kind of like it, but I can see how it might annoy some people.. well.. anyone he is targeting. 

He is awesome.. just ask him. 

It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't run every time you had his 6 and then reverse when you decide not to chase him. 

If you don't believe how good skyyr is, ask vraciu.  Or palace cobra.. Orr ertus.  While it's fun for awhile, it gets tiring.  I'm sure you've seen it on ch200.

Simon here are few of the engagements showing you clearly hording and coming straight at the boogey man.  I think you are becoming a professional victim. What you are complaining about happens all day in here to multiple multiple people.  We are a very small game community and its not hard to know who you are fighting and even single some one out.  Every one has that one or two players they want to beat or maybe has a grudge (not in a bad way) that they want to shoot down.  Just the other night i watched a spit 16 in a fight turn and immediately knew who it was.  I think maybe your ego and pride is hurt more than anything.

Flippz, you've drunk the Kook Aid. I implore you to rethink becoming his spokesperson.

This is typical Skyyr, selectively publishing snips that support his supposed innocence.

Did you stop to think why he was suddenly in the sector in which I was flying? Despite spending the numerous preceding hours elsewhere? Do you think that I initiated this or these engagements with an awareness of who it was?

My statements are verifiably true, and the kind of thing that he's been doing for years, in front of everyone. You are a fool if you think otherwise.

I'm guessing the sorties where I shot him down, or where he and his gang clearly targeted me over and over again, aren't on YT?

This is precisely the kind of crap that makes him a pariah, and will end up sucking you down the same sewer. Open your eyes before you turn into another Vraciu.

Now that I've actually watched the films, I will elaborate on the circumstances of each, with the hope that you will reconsider buying what he's selling.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a964XSXSDp8

I vaguely remember this sortie, which was a week or two ago, but not the details of what lead to this engagement, or if I was aware of who I was attacking.
Just because there are more cons in the area does not make it a 2v1. I don't see the others engaging. It was a good shot though, I should have won that fight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNmsMQ81HMM

Conveniently edited to exclude the fact that Skyyr was in an entirely different sector (maybe a different country..?) until I appeared in the log. Of course, and as usual, he switched over to the sector that he knew I was in, climbed to 15k and waited for an F4U to arrive.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LtUKsiVpUs

I'm surprised that you volunteered this one. This meeting was after Skyyr, judge and vraciu, plus some hangers-on, spent the previous several HOURS hunting me, with a massive numbers advantage. Of course I upped a CHog after getting shot in the face by the horde all night. By the way, both Judge and Skyyr DID have a big altitude advantage over me. The film is, once again, conveniently edited not to show their diving from 20k to meet me (the only con in the sector).

Let's also recall that Judge and yourself were Knights, right along side of me during my first sortie, fighting Rooks. I noticed Ertus and PalCobra were also in the fray, but Skyyr was not showing up in the chat or kill logs.

Within 10-20 minutes of my arrival, Skyyr (Bish) did showed up, having flown 4 sectors, over Rooks, to dive past multiple Knight and Rook cons, to shoot at me. Hmm.... how did he know? Duh.

Immediately thereafter you and your squad, plus Skyyr, all joined Rooks so you could continue hunting me. Did I log off? Did I hide? No, I kept upping and fighting despite your 10:1 advantage and constant, childish and often insane taunts.

Flipps, I'm not trying to lump you in with skyyr/judge/vraciu. I'm trying not to, in fact, as I know you're more about the fight than the kill. If you keep it up though, you will end up getting painted with the same brush as your new squadmates, and all that might entail.
