Hello comrades, sorry but I have stopped in the dogfight, I'm told that a moderator has suspended me, please if anyone knows what happened, if you have some pilot telling that I misbehaved with him, please respond or better over here I opened a topic in the technical support of the dogfight. because I'm thinking that I have used the account.
I'm enzo sanchez many of you know me and know that I can not disrespect anyone. Thanks to all


Hola camaradas, perdon pero, me han suspendido en el dogfight, me han dicho que un moderador me ha suspendido, por favor si alguien sabe lo que ha pasado, si han visto algun piloto contando que me he portado mal con él, por favor respondan por aca o mejor he abierto un topic en el soporte tecnico del dogfight. porque estoy pensando que me han usado la cuenta.
Yo Soy enzo sanchez muchos de ustedes me conocen y saben que no soy capaz de faltar el respeto a nadie. Gracias a todos

And just so you all know, I must never be invited to join the star chamber as I would've instantly fully abused my position and granted bellsaj official M.O.M status and whilst talking Ssh!t I would've also forced Tiana into the squad too ;)

I was going to bed when I wrote that. Was really tired. Sput yes that is true to the 10000000000%!!!! I'm a year younger then u though. What college do you want to go to? Do you want to work at Texas, Florida, or other stations? I'm hoping for Florida. Took a tour 2 years ago and loved it. My sister hated it she's the exact opposite of me.

Great vocation, if you can stick to it. I believe that Cal Tech and Stanford also have top notch aero engineering programs. I was an astronautical engineering major before I switched, but I took plenty of aero classes. My sincerest recommendation is that you study math, and get into the hardest AP math classes that you can take in school. And Physics.

Cheers to Ronnie Biggs for enduring the fickle finger of the DF server... Kevy and I were up against RB with a few other newer pilots and RB was more than holding his own. Next thing, my team grows to include firefox, wumper, kevy and probably more brass than I remember. Biggs stuck it out even against miserable odds. End was predictable, bur he is to be commended for great effort! By the way, if he's not in a squad, should MOM be recruiting him??? B)

Tiana? Definitely... Like flying with her. My only request is that she agree to carry bombs on bombing missions.

This has become one of my biggest pet peeves. I have started leaving games when I see a majority of my team dumping. Play as a teammate or don't play... Just my opinion.

I love math and just two months ago i think we took a test to determine what classes we would be able to take in high school. My current GPA is at a 4 and trying to keep it that way. Thanks for the advice. :)

Then get into the best school that money can buy, and by that, what you (and that means your parents) can afford to pay. I fail to understand why the richest nation on earth has such incredibly high college tuition, but that is a topic for another discussion altogether. Really do your research, and become as well rounded as you can. Unless you are an uberbrainiac, most schools will want a student that can reflect highly on their university in all facets, not just academics. Community service, varsity sports, the arts, all help create a well rounded candidate, and the more well rounded, the more competitive you'll be.

We all look forward to hearing about your college acceptance letters!

Thanks for the kind words Beate. It was a tough session, but still beat mowing the lawn. I was later rewarded with a swarm of enthusiastic noobs who lined up to help me rank up to 24. So overall, not a bad day at the office.

It's great flying against you guys - ruthless killers, respectful to those who deserve it and supportive of each other.

Thanks also for Suggesting me as a recruit, but I'm happy enough as a lonely old fart for the time being. Perhaps when I out rank Wiggins I should contact you.

Cheers. Tally ho!

Holy crap, haven't had much time to play in the last 2 days.75 posts to catch up on. Wow. Welcome to all new moms. Hoping to have a chance to play this weekend. Hockey tonight and tommorow night and then Sunday will be spent shooting at little dots. Hopefully a good chunk of Saturday as well. See you in the virtual sky. :-)

I couldn't be more proud of our Prodigy Overachievers! Sput, Striker, you have a freaky online family here beaming with self-satisfaction over your exemplary scholastic performance. (like we had anything to do with it! Well, we did recognize budding superkids and recruit 'em, that counts!)

Striker, a little more meticulous attention to communication detail - spelling, syntax, punctuation - and nothing can stop you. As a communication professional I can tell you, nothing will make you more impressive to college recruiters...and nothing will undermine you faster....than either powerful or sloppy written and verbal communication skills. I know many of us type on phones (I'm king of sucking at that...but I take ten minutes to type a correctly structured, flaw-free text message rather than ever send something sub-standard with my name on it) ... but the fact is, how you present yourself is even more important than what you're presenting. Genius, perfect grades, monster SAT scores...all wither in the face of sloppy written or verbal presentation. Literacy is my personal wheelhouse but I think the guys will bear me out. You have so much to offer, offer it in a form that cannot be easily ignored. End of sermon.

Okay...not quite the end: as examples of how big a difference a well written note can make, you have only to look at any post or in-game banter by Luna or Calvin. It's inspiring to see such respect for language. Inspiring not only to other kids, but to we mean old morons as well.

Hey Rich, we've talked about Tiana in-game. She's a ton o' fun. good call.

Sorry to see you go, old top. Best wishes for your new role in...what's it called...The MOMpostors? What? Was there no room left in D.A.D? Did anyone but I ever see that Paul Bunyan guy with his D.A.D tag and recruitment pitch?

In any case, Richy, you'll be missed. Missed all the more because you'll be dead. We don't let M.O.Ms leave any other way but feet first out the saloon door. Dibs on your swanky rich-kid spurs!

I am not a communication professional, but I will second Wig's remarks. It is very important to be able to present yourself well. I will also add that you need to know your audience. You have to "be real" with everyone, but it helps if you can talk to, as opposed to over or under, the individual that you are speaking with. This, however, does not apply when applying for universities, writing resumes, and during (most) job interviews. If in doubt, make sure you have a friend like Wig who can look over the really important things for you.

With that said, my roots are in education, but I've spent my life in a very blue collar world. Therefore, I'm the king of lazy typing, slang words, and generally sounding like a hick. Actually, I enjoy sounding like a hick. People underestimating you can work to your benefit at times. Know your audience.

Best of luck to you in your endeavors
