Guess he didn't want to foul the deck.

I wonder if he can take off again so that he can land all his proxies.

Doesn’t show a bar but it does flash any base the CV might be trying to get close to. This is how he alerts the other sides.

Could we collide with him and knock him off at all when he does this? He parks offset on the cv a lot too.

Take it to him directly. Going public with this kinda stuff tends to find the subject quickly forgotten from my experience.

This has been brought up before… there is a link somewhere in a similar recent thread to an older post. Dale made it clear he is not going to do anything to limit inactive players in the arenas. However it was like 10 years ago or more so today’s answer may be different .

Of course I don’t know if that will be his response to you if you send it to him but there is only one way to know.

I'm fine with is until shelling a base or town results in it flashing the base.

Take it to him directly? How you gonna do that when he logs on for 2 min to get in position and then is gone gone for 12 hours only to come back for 2 minutes to land kills and log off.

I've seen Cybro in real life.

He looks like this:

Missing certification is a larger issue from a business side of things imo

I'm confused, isn't the ship always visible?  He landed on the back of a ship on his own side?  So he spends his time riding in an aircraft parked on the back of a ship, is that what your saying?

No, you can sail a CV right up to a coastal base, shell the town and base down to nothing and the only alert the the enemy will never be alerted as long as no planes take off from the carrier. It's a gross oversight in the game mechanics and it's exploited at every opportunity by the players that want to avoid combat in a combat game.

Eh. At least Cybro isn't moving CVs, then swapping countries to kill them... :uhoh
