So, how does that make you feel?

Haha oh this is rich.

I've never once addressed you, Bliss, in any of my posts until you chimed in and I was replying. Look back at anything I've said before replying to you and you'll see I was merely discussing thd cause and effects of player's actions in an online mission (not even referring to ATAG's missions, mind you), but you've seemed to take it as a personal jab, for what reason I don't know.

If you want to ban me from your server for talking about game mechanics, that's your perogative, but get your ban hammer ready, because if it isn't me it's going to be someone else.

Funny how you'd ban myself for posting on a forum, non-slanderous opinions btw, but you won't ban known cheaters.

It's less funny however how you chose to ignore all my responses and attempts to explain the situation to you.

I suspect it's your manner old chum, I've tried quite politely to explain this. For another example; Who precisely is cheating? Where, when how?

In all honesty I don't care any longer. Your prediction that there will be many others like you is, like all your assertions, a meaningless generalization. Thankfully the only evidence we have to judge the likely accuracy of your prediction that "...it will be someone else" shows precisely the opposite. There's only been one other I believe in the last year and a half. The vast majority of those who inhabit the server are fair-playing, fair-minded gamers seeking to pursue their harmless hobby for fun. Hopefully it will be as long again before we see your like again.

Cheerio,

Septic.

Dunno if this has been said already as I couldn't be bothered to go through all the guff on this thread. (I save that for when it is 2am and I need a good giggle. )

Cheating is finding a way, through nefarious means, to have a bullet proof plane or, perhaps, infinite ammo on a realistic settings server.

Vulching is WAR.

This is a simulation of war.

It is very frustrating being Vulched but, as it is a simulation of a war, I'm fairly sure dying or losing a war and having your country invaded is a bit of an inconvenience also.

Hello,
First I am sorry I begun all this polemic about this tactics of “vultures”.
Personally I am against, not because it is not realistic, because it is not really in the beginning of the war but more at the end when the numbers where staked against one side that could not do anything against the superiority of the other side. It is not the same to have a hit and run raid against a airfield and a “vulture” airplane(s) waiting for a victim to take of or land. The Allies with their offensive tactics did do it sometime until the cost was to expensive due to the “flack” or the defensive patrols above such airfields (expl.ME262/FW190d9).
But this is a game and I see no fun for either the person that sho (not down because the plane taking of is not airborne) at the person that is trying to take off and it is certainly no fun for the person how is shoot at how did warm up his engine, made his circuit around the airfield to align at the end of the runway to be shoot at the precise moment where his rudder wheel is lifting his plane does crash. Otherwise we shall end up with servers with 20 Germans against 1 new RAF pilot how can never take off? Or the other way around! If this is your definition of fun so be it! Have fun your way. I am trying to find the right server, balanced where someone with glasses can see an adversary from time to time at equal terms.
Have a nice time with this great game. Never forget this is a game.

Then why don't you put your hand on another workbench?

Then there you go... evidence of vulching during WW2

I don't vulch, personally, as I have enough of a problem flying my plane to bother with such tactics. I have been at the receiving end a couple of times, mind.

Why doesn't it bother me?

i dont think anybody is complaining about somebody trying to attack a normally functioning and well defended airfield (as those brittish coastal bases were in that time period), the legitimate complaint is about some online servers being the equivalent of air quake servers tailor made for point whores and then calling themselves "full real"

[ATAG_Doc]

Please gentlemen can we all just get along? It's pointless talking about this it wont change anything. Just get on coms. I never spawned in on a base that is under attack. I just simply ask others for a status its no problem.

And you'd have ATAG change it to suit your desires?
