I'm deeply ashamed, father, and I would rather have kept this to myself, but unless I confess and have my sins forgiven I feel I won't be able to raise my head and look people in the eyes again.

I was in this carrier game, father, and had just taken off when a second lieutenant, a team mate of mine who was right behind me on the carrier deck shot me in the back and sent me down in flames.

And then, father, I sinned.

I didn't admonish him or try to help him choose the right path, the way I know I should have done, but sought him out with revenge in my heart, and shot him down.

Then, when he reappeared I shot him down again, and expected to be banned for five minutes, but the devil (excuse me for taking his name in my mouth) must have been with me, for I was allowed to continue as if nothing had happened.

And then, father, I must admit that I did it again. When he reappeared as a tank I shot him the third time and even felt a strange satisfaction about it.

The poor misguided lieutenant didn't say a word. "Caveman" was his name, or something to that effect.

Do you think, father, that I can ever be forgiven and start over again with a clean slate?

MAGNIFICENT !

I must confess father I have done the same..awesome Veidar well said my friend.

...Who cares? They got off lucky. If I encounter a team killer, they're banned, heh.

Seriously, it's like...no big deal at all. It's just a game.

Thanks father. I take that to mean: "Son, your sins are forgiven. Now go out and sin no more!"

I tell em once, I tell em twice THEN I SIN SIN SIN

just keep on blowing the taritors son..

Don't shoot traitors! Troll em!

If an aspirant shoots you down it’s a teaching moment; tell them what to do and how the game is supposed to be played. If a lieutenant shoots you down it’s your duty to enforce the rules and bring them back to the house of pain.
I never shoot down teammates on purpose but if they spawn or team-kill all bets are off. I don’t like it but I will do it.

You must be cleansed by fire if you truly seek absolution. Two well placed bullets by a worthy opponent will set you free.

Since my banning privileges aren't working... I warn them, and if they answer sarcastically, I blast 'em. Repeatedly. If they are good, I ask for help. But most of the time, these jokers are only medium skill.

Agreed, black.

Manfred, do you have any mod controls currently? I hope z gets em working!

I wish the moderators would get an updated ingame "control panel" or something in the next Dogfight update. It'd make things a LOT easier than having to type out names, codes, etc.

I kill them and some people who are team killers and to save them selves they say that I am new. Even though they are not new. I tell them its fine just dont shoot me again. They do so I kill them and they say the same thing I am new. I kill them again and tell them learn not to shoot blue or this is whats going to happen to u. And they never do it again.

Are you a preacher?

Thank you for your kind advice. I humbly admit it must be the right way to atone for my sins.

The best thing about it is that it will happen quite automatically when I meet that worthy person in my next game.

Why? Me?. No. But I see from your profile that you're a Christian

I must have been Hitler or Stalin or Pol Pot in a former life at the rate I get set free...

Lol, his NAME is christian, not his religion. maybe he is Christian, but i think thats the name spot.

Lets conspire to ignite all the souls that would die just to feel alive.

Mind if i put that in a song?

It already is.

Then can i plagurize it?

Ask Matt Bellamy from the band, Muse.

Yesterday 5-31-12. his name was fabar "something". (he was on my team. I put up with him shooting at me for 2 games).... I told him once, I told him twice, Heck I even told him again... Then

I SINNED SINNED SINNED then I turned back around when he was airborn and I SINNED SINNED SINNED. Now that I was finished sinning I head to enemy base to hopefully drop my bomb when his friend chimes in "Dentinhead your ruining the game...only shoot red" . I end the story here with a chuckle and ask. How do you all deal with this? It seems to happening more and more with ranks that should know better.

I accidently shot Whitenow down while he was on a run into enemy base he knocked everyone down in front of him - then along comes Dentinhead (team mate I add) BAMM . I felt like crap... I'm really sorry whitenow and to all the others I've accidently shot down.

Just appologize. Your well known enough that they wouldnt expect you to teamkill.

Well, yes, I know it's stupid to make puns out of peoples names, but a Christian is always a Christian, don't you think! .

Lol, i guess.

Never would I hold a grudge with any of the players that I enjoy flying with. I always let new guys know the deal and who to shoot. It does take more than once most of the time. However I do run across a few bad apples that are getting a kick out of knowing what to do but rather make you mad for no aparent reason. The hair did stand up on the back of my neck when my teamie (not to name names) but Dentinhead nailed me.. But I realized right away it was a mistake after I saw who it was. No hard feelings buddy, no need to apologize on forem but thanks for the comment. WHITENOW

Whitenow I love ur saying thing on top of # of posts.
