I'm still waiting to see if Tasmania likes it. So some changes may occur if he sees it unfit.

Turned out great, Blu!

Thanks mate! And thanks for helping me out with getting the insignia and badge.

Its the season for strange happenings. Why should the forum be any different?

Do I see Rod Sterling lurking around here somewhere?

Hi all. Long time no see or speak. As you know all know real life comes first and it has been hectic the last several months. I hope to be able to start playing a bit more. We shall see.

On another note: Please help me to acknowledge and congratulate Skeeter72 on making Air Marshall in HGA. Congratulations Skeeter you are a fine wolf my friend.

I have read through some of the most recent posts and I see a recommendation for Wolfwolf. He has put in a request and I have approved him, please give Wolfwolf a great big wolf welcome and show him the ropes.

HGA also has a request from Alex Galt and Shadyslendie. Anyone know these pilots?

Congrats Skeeter!! So proud of you Sir Skeeter. Go tear that shirt off and howl at the moon...

This howl is for you....

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Thank You so much Skipper! I have received many congratulatory gestures, it has all been greatly appreciated.

Digger Sir, great to see you. I've heard great things about Wolfwolf--heck he's already got the name to join our Pack.

BTW, did I see our Trex requesting to join!? He's going to have to become warm blooded and grow some fur. At least now he's saved from the mass Dino extinction.

Yes, I have flown with both of them and, in my limited time with them, found them to show promise.

Squeak .. You've given all of us old guard so many great moments.. I remember logging on two years ago on halloween night when the Sqd. Only had like seven members, four of you were on and had all changed your names for hollowed.. What a night, five out of he seven total wolfs flying together.. I remember trying to guess everyone's name and of course your squeaky howl that should have been a giveaway..

We will stay in touch by email as we do now, but know the DF night sky's are a little dimmer without you in them.. God bless ya Squeak


Life goes on, good,going Skeeter..

Troops your grizzled wrinkled half palsied old Chaplain is at 80 percent.. Both in game and in attendance.. It will take me awhile to make up the 120 WR points I lost trying to fly on chemo, but the important thing is that's all in the past.. A clear bill of health, and reds to turn green.. This is seldom talked about, but is there anything cooler than seeing the left side of your screen light up green as you get hits.. We'll see ya'll up there!

Squeak.. The DF night skies will be a bit dimmer with out you there.. I remember a thanksgiving two years ago..is that possible.. Yes I guess it is.. Myrlin and I had just joined, and for Halloween you guys had all changed your names.. That night five of the total seven Wolf pack flew together.. I remember trying to guess who everyone was, and you has that squeaky howl I should have guessed.. We will stay in touch by email, but you'll be missed in the wardroom.. God bless !!!
I
Life goes on,. congratz Skeeter, you're a winner..

Troops, your grizzled, palsied old Chaplain is at 80%, it's going to take awhile to reclaim the 120 WR points I lost trying to fly with chemo, but the good news is a clean bill of health and hands that are getting better every day.. I'm back.. Ok 80% back.. LOL

i'm sorry for the double post.. Viper could you or the skipper take one down.. After posting the first one I couldn't see it and thought I had messed up the "submit".. Yep, I messed up alright.. Good grief..

Oh, and welcome Wolfwolf..

Nah, I am glad for that post and feel the sentiment and message can be posted twice.

Those were some good times, weren't they?

Naturally the Halloween name season is just ramping up. I have mine in place.... Im not sure WolfWolf is on the forum, but if so he is likely wondering what the heck he got himself into! LOL

oooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Hi brother & sister
I participated in DF in June and finally arrived at 10K kills.
It is felt to be feel nostalgic for what was shot down in the days of a beginner.
The support of the ALL WOLVES contributes to the fact that I was able to do my best to here.
I would like to express our gratitude to everyone.

This is excerpt from "The President's Corner", which I hope you will all visit! I call on my fellow wolves to consider this issue carefully, because you are the finest squadron around with, from what I can see, the highest standards of behavior.

"The world of Dogfight is like the Old West in the US. Everyone's toting guns and usually aren't afraid to use them! In fact, the best are gunslingers and they rule the roost. MORAFs fall into this category. Personally, I think being a MORAF carries with it the responsibility to enforce the rules as well as to set the highest example, like unto being a member of King Arthur's knights of the Round Table. Chivalry and strict adherence to a code of ethics are required. However, I will admit that there are some MORAFS who obviously don't agree with me, and they can be counted among the worst offenders. Their example is copied by the noobs very quickly, and it takes a concerted effort on everyone's part to change their behavior. The bad ones usually go away if enough people despise them.

Just recently, an Aspirant named Escaramango ruined several games I was in by team-killing, bombing his own hangars, flying without bombs to other base to camp and spawn-kill. Didn't listen to reason or threats of reprisal. Only thing that got through was when I had finally had enough and killed him. A couple others did the same, and he eventually left, only to show up in another game and repeat the same cycle of behavior all over again. This morning, who shows up in a good game but good old Escaramango! I immediately warned everybody what he was, but they didn't believe me, even after he bombed his own hangar. SwopCaml, in particular, insisted that it was just a mistake. Of course, it wasn't, and Escaramango proved me right once again.

The point here is that we do need a better way to effectively police this behavior with more than words. What do YOU say on this particular subject? Do you think empowering certain members of our MORAF Club would be a good thing? I do, after Escaramango and all the others like him I've seen before."

Why shouldn't members of our squadron be in this select group? Please talk about it, and drop by The President's Corner to let me know what you think as well as who you would select to be part of this Special Ops task force? Thanks, everybody, and Owwwwooooooohhhhhh!

Well said bro, I couldn't agree any less! You rock Mr. President of df!

I agree with what you have posted here, however I will say there will be folks who are going to say this has been tried in the past. Before my time, but there was a group.... T.A.S.K. I believe, who did the "policing" of the game in a manner similar to what you have described (at least from what I have gathered)

Without sparking a huge debate my input is as follows; Play how you like. The really "bad" apples are usually identified and taken care of via the blacklist thread or other "word of mouth" type information. Dunc, you and I, and all of Wolf Pack for that matter, have standards which we have agreed to by belonging to this squad. We cannot force anyone outside our squad to play in an honorable manner just to appease ourselves. I have stated before, and it still holds true, if you are in a game with someone who you don't like to play with, leave. Its that simple. (of course a subscription comes in handy for that course of action)

Again, I agree with you and your described manner of honorable play is pretty much the Wolf Pack way, but it may not be everyone's way, nor should it be. We need antagonists to keep it interesting. We need sneakers, droppers, and even spawnkillers, to get us fired up and even bring us all together. And think about this.... how cool was it when we, as a squadron, decided we were going on a "hunt" for a player who wronged one of us? Good stuff right there, and necessary in my opinion.

Anyhow, that's my .02. I do admire your zeal for the presidency. Your honesty and sense of what is decent and right makes me glad you are a wolf, my friend. I agree with Talon... you rock!

Very well spoken Viper.

I second that Sir Egor! Well spoken Viper. To be honest the noobs, recycled noobs with new names and Morafs that go rogue do keep things interesting.

At least the real noobs have a chance to be noticed, learn and become great players. Those I always keep a keen eye out for our Wolf Pack Family.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Ok on the subject of names I am thinking of putting together a table of names within the pack to see how many names our pack have if you can place them on about me page that way we can see which names are common and uncommon in the pack I can calculate 2 names so far with the names as names that either have a shortened meaning will be calculated into one. Awwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhlllllllllll

LOOK WHAT I HAD FOR MY THSNKSGIVING BREAKFAST !
