    Wouldn't it be nice? I'm not a pilot myself, but I do a fair amount of tank/apc work. When I get blown up, I'll often spawn back at the base that spawns the vehicle (unless there's a very pressing threat elsewhere). Sometimes when I respawn, there's nobody around, so I take the vehicle again. But if somebody is there, waiting by the vehicle, it's theirs. I'll take a different vehicle and ride alongside them for repair support.

    Mutual respect. What a concept.

      Ooooh let me guess. You are unimaginably rich and have run out of new things to do so you sit online all day while your servants wait on you hand and foot.

      Or are you a disabled military veteran who cant move, thus you collect your government check and sit at your desk in your wheelchair all day and troll forums?

      Or you are a middle-manager at an anonymous IT firm (maybe even a repair tech) and you sit at a desk all day fielding support calls and have all this time to sit around...


      This guessing game is fun!

        I concur with that one. I don't think there's any need to explain either. :p

        Actually, I'd like to amend that. The poster and the guy he's posting about are both retarded.

          My guess is option 4, weedy nerd in his 30s, living at his mother's house, leeching off her food and internet, and struggles with abstract concepts like 'exercise', 'hygiene' and 'girlfriend'.

            Heh, stupid. I'm university educated in Astrophysics, so... ahhh, yeah, whatever dude.



            Yeah, your post count, and obsession with a piece of computer hardware that's in your sig does a good job of telling me about the quality of your lifestyle. Ever heard of sunlight?

            I can keep this up, if you like, but because I have, you know, a life, I might take a while to respond.
            lol, I love it whem people talk about things they have no idea about. Lets start at the begining.

            I am not a trool, I was referring to exaples outside this thread, where I have helped numerous people with various computer related problems. I am constantly on AIM helping people with builds or problems. It is rare I will insult someone, but when you post something stupid I will tell you about it.

            Quality of my lifestyle. ok, I am married, have a newborn child, work 45+ hours a week, go to school several nights a week, golf whenever I get a chancem, and play paintball as often as I can find the time. Not to mention working on my car when I'm in the mood. But whatever, I have no life. :)

            Yes I am proud of my computer, I have speant alot of time working on it and this IS a computer based forum, so why wouldn't I put my computer in my sig.

            None of the above, not in a computer related feild. Work for a beer distrubutor.

            lol see above. Wrong-o. :) I would be willing to bet I get more exercise at work in a day than 50% of the US population does in a week. And as far as a girlfreind goes, your right, I don't have one. I have a wife...

              This is what I saw when I read your story:

              I took a jet and died. When I came bakc I wanted the jet again because no one is entitled to the jet even if they wait for it. I didn't get it, so now I am entitled to it next time because I am a total hypocrite. The jet comes back and I break the BFROE to get it like a spoiled little baby. I die again and the other guy comes up with a much more inventive way of getting the jet. Now I'm going to come in here and tell you about it and make myself look like a complete tool.

              Just so you know why you are going to be flamed until this thread gets locked or dies.

                Fine, good for you. You have a life, whatever. You're a shining example of helpful tech support. Goodie. You probably help old ladies across the road and rescue kittens from trees, too. I could go on about how superior my life is, and you could rebutt, and so forth and so on, but I have no desire to turn this into a wizzing contest. If I cared that much, I'd probably blog about it, or something.

                So my question is, why bother to insult someone in the first place? Just let the thread die if it's that meaningless. No one needs or wants the kind of input you placed into the second post.

                There are too many people around posting meaningless two word, or single smiley drivel with the only purpose and result of increasing a post count on a forum.

                Ultimately, I think it's just too hard people to show any respect to others anymore, especially when you can lash out at a faceless nick on a forum... something we all are guilty of from time to time.

                  I'm delighted you have improved your piloting skills and where kind enough to thank those offering tips to help you out.Polish up the team skills a tad and I'd join your squad any time.:)

                    Blog it? Dude...

                    Also I'm going to have to agree with everyone. It's people like you who I'd like to TK if you weren't total smacktards and punish, when you clearly need a reminder that waiting for a plane hurts the team.

                    And MY jet? WTF is that? It's not yours. It's his.

                    Also would like to point out that everyone who posts on a forum isn't a "30 year-old fat guy living in his mom's basement surrounded by Cheetos and Red Bulls, snorking at all the "1337 n00bs" he's owning on a game. Who doesn't see the light of day and has a decanter to **** in instead of walking five feet to the bathroom and will only lift his ass out of the padded chair when mom makes Rice Krispies."

                      Because he is the exact kind of person that ruins the game for many other by Tking because it is "his" jet, or helo. He is no more entitled to it than anyone else. So what if the person gets in and crashes it 30 sec later, that's that persons right to do so.

                      Everyone else seemed to understand what I meant by my original post.

                          You don't get it.

                          You don't understand the situation.

                          These two guys in my situation took 'my jet' to a new level. One guy wanted the jet, his clan mate was using a jeep to eliminate the competition. They should have been working together to take flags or kill the enemy, not jump the line for the jet.

                          I don't think any reasonable person condones indiscriminate team killing, but I feel in some cases it's justified to remind some smacktards they are dealing with real people, not lines of code in a game that can be treated any way they wish.

                          In future, i'll just have to work a touch harder translating 'You are retarded' into 'I do not approve of the way you feel you must have the jet because you beleive you are a superior pilot, and must kill your team mate to ensure you have the jet.'

                            Metasynaptic I wasn't referring to your situation dude. That was cold of them to drive the jeep. If it was up to me both of them would have been tied to a "TK Cross" where anyone could TK them without fear of negative points. I was referring to Scarz. He deserves to be on that "TK Cross".

                            I WAS, however, referring to your blog comment. Dude... blogs? Come on...

                              Ok, fair enough then. I thought you were refering to my situation because it carried from the blog comment.

                              As for blogs, I dunno, some people like telling others about their lives. As an astrophysicist, I have an understanding of how small and insignificant an individual life is, and do not seek to tell others about what I consider to be my own, insiginificant existance.

                                Well that's good. :P No personal offence intended to any "bloggers" but I hate 'em... and LiveJournal... and MySpace... curse you Internet...

                                Also, I may not have the education you do, but I definatly share your understanding... kind of sad how sometimes people can think so highly of themselves.
