I was noticing today a squd going by kamikaze.... Bless their little hearts, they fly around spraying bullets everywhere, hitting nothing but each other,,, someone needs to tell them not to fly in groups. Now new people don't worry much about these guys ether just let them pass and watch as they dive head long in to the carrier or air field, that is after all what they have been trained to do, and don't worry about your boat they never drop their bombs thus no points. It's often funny to see them single file go in to the ground.. You can easily pick them out by the white planes and the pale white faces of a dead man flying.. Don't worry to much about them they never carry bullets and rarely deviate from their path, just stay outa the way and you'll be fine. Also if you ever do chose to shoot one down it only takes one shot so don't waste ammo by Fireing more than once. Another problem you may encounter is, when you fly a white plane these guys tend to follow you around. Wigs one time had better than 20 following him around in a game...looked like a freaking banana train flying around the battle field.. :) :) :o oh and they tend to smile a lot, not sure about that one... Anyway enjoy :)

Another group to be considered goes by Warhorse... Now I've seen the movie and beleave you me these guys are no Warhorse! They remind me more of the little plastic horses that you'd find outside the loco drugstore when I was I kid,,, you know the ones Paul, you put a dime in it and it would rock back and forth, We used them to pacify the kiddos when we went shopping. These guys tend to fly in circles as if tethered to a pole. They rarely shoot because it spooks them and they will stampede all the way back to the barn, if you ever do get one on your tail just toss out a carrot and they'll follow it all the way to the ground. <BOOM!> you can spot these guys by the droup or slump of the body of their plane,,, you know like a broken down old farm horse... to many fat kids riding i geuss, You don't see them in game much because we occasionally fly over their base and drop hay and carrots and sometimes a < as in one > apple just to see them fight for it.. :) don't get me wrong or anything we all feel kanda sorry for them, after all when we get shoot down we respawn, when they get hit, its off to the glue factory :woohoo: and talk about changing shoes.....ouch!!! Anyways enjoy the game and have fun...oh by the way,,,yes you can feed these guys and every saturday and Sunday they give free rides so bring the kids :) enjoy.

Has anyone seen a tiger shark? Best I can tell its a tiny little fish that swims alone and try's to pick off what other fish leave behind. I beleave they are real tho. Now I've never seen one ,but i beleave they exist due to the fact sometimes when I'm picking away at a player and get em smoking really good,,,,BOOM they go up in flames (or feathers!) ;) I've tried catching one before but they always steal the bate and never take the hook, If you ever do find one remember to take pictures otherwise no one will beleave you. Otherwise just try not to get bit and as always have fun and always eat your vegetables,,,even if they do smell like fish. :)

B) To All New Players; Warning, Warning There is a new Threat to the Dogfight community... It should be avoided at all cost to body and limb... It goes by the name MANFRED and should be SHOTon sight!!! Don't play around with this one folks he's all bad news and will most likely delete your whole day if not your entire points score to date. He can easily identified by the Neon Green Strapless low cut dress with the Rhinestone tassels and over sized cups! With the Hot Red Pumps and the Micheal Jackson gloves(only on the left hand) :woohoo: in the air he'll be the one in a Hot Pink plane with, Yes, Tassels on the wing tips and little ding-a-ling bells on the wheels :woohoo: Now if he does get behind you, your probably going to be ok as long as you don't try and pick anything up :whistle: (I'm just saying) as always play nice, Talk nice and eat your Vegetables. Oh yes and remember if you do see Manfred there's a $5000 bounty on his head. Shoot on sight...... :evil: and always enjoy the game.

Wow... I looked at this topic thinking Maybee I'd get a good tip. Now I see it was only comedy. As far as typing while facing pros bad idea. And moms being easy rubish they are some of the best. I like fighting straight on I dread facing yall that weave and swerve then end up on my tail.... Oh well I'm happy as long as my kills outnumber my falls.

Yes Gorokhan I made this post to help ease some of the tension that was growing between squads
And players, it was my hope that though laughter nerves would mend and tempers cool. I'd lile to
Think it helped but ill never know to be sure. But Thats why this post was made. We all know not to
turn ur back on a mom and good luck with a Falcon and the enigma s are best left alone to. There are
Many fine squads here with highly talented players. Good luck and just have fun

Dr Dave wrote: B) for all new people to the game. there are many approaches to play this game.
the main objective is to have fun and not get shot down, 1 of the most popular
techniques for not getting shot down often, is to fly very straight and level
because most players when firing,ie,wig,parrothead,BigTex,---J---, Mansfield ,flyingmuck.
can't shoot straight and tend to spray bullets everywhere... you're fine bye flying straight
you can fly right past the old coots. in the unlikely Avent 1 of these players gets behind you
simply type in you're going the wrong way, and they will turn around. then you can turn and shoot them.
and as with any game there are some characters in the game that or put here merely
to help you build points and Rank... they are very easy to shoot down and add a comic relief
to the game... they are easily identified by the large letters over there plane. most players here affectionately
just call them MOM...:) I sincerely hope this helps you enjoy the game to its fullest
and always remember if it says mom shoot it... it's easy money.
you know this is all true... after all I am a doctor. :evil:

.
Was asked what 1st post said this was easier than trying to remember,,,enjoy

Dr Dave wrote: :) also before I forget there is a second group that are strictly for comic relief and will surely bring a smile
they are called Falcons , when you shoot somebody you hear a little dink sound. But when shoot a Falcon
You hear a CLUCK like a chicken... and when you shoot them down, you dont see smoke and flames,
You see feathers,,, feathers flying everywhere... Its really funny to see. :woohoo: :whistle: :evil:


This one is my on going reference to feathers,

Dr Dave wrote: B) you should also understand when you come across a player going under the banner enigma. these people are confused
they sometimes believe they are good pilots, but rarely get off the ground, against these players flying straight and level will not work
if you want to shoot 1 down you have to shoot towards the ground they spend a lot of time there or sitting on the carriers fishing, I've been treating most of these people for years, some have come a long way but when they get off their meds,,, watch out!!! they go absolutely crazy, god help you if they spawn behind you. now don't worry they can't shoot you down or anything because we will only let them load with or blanks :side: if giving live ammo they'd shoot off their foot. :woohoo: 1 in particular seems to have a superiority complex ,but he can be easily picked out of the crowd by his strapless red dress and purple stiletto heels. if you ever fly with 1 on your team and things start hitting your windshield that just means they spilled their medication and you may want to stop and pick it up, after all they will be needing it, and it is strictly forbidden to feed them M&Ms....they get them confused with their regular medications. other than that they're pretty much harmless just shoot them down and have a good time...


side note; this is a very difficult squad name to pick on. I did my best hope you like it, and I mean no disrespect to any of this squadrons members. Thnx Doc.


And what the heck I threw this one in because I liked it

Well...

I know at least one MOM that is really harmless, and doesn't worth aiming nor shooting: he crashes a lot on the ground, despite not being a Kamikazi; he can't aim at a zep, imagine aiming at little red dots - no way!!! He has only few dozens of kills (all of them from lucky shots, he told me that), and thousands of deaths on his files; and he can't even land on carriers!!! It's hillarious! So, if you see a MOM, first pay attention to his name below the tag: if it is something like "-Ped-", let it go, it doesn't worth your bullets. I'll ask Schei to force him to drop the tag immediately, by the way.

Now, talking about me: When you see a "Pedrinho" in the sky, run for your life, fellows!!! I became a real ace in the last few weeks!

To NLR 420: You've been spoiling my secret plans to rule the world (remember backdoor? muah-ah-ah-a); so, don't dare to comment on this one, or you're dead!

I took the RED PILL!
