By just coming on here you demonstrate how much you like the game and so do the rest of us- in short the hardcore, the BoPists, the guys who wished they were around 70 years ago. So we all have something in common, that should be what binds this community no matter what mode or skill level you play. It's a place to swap ideas, get tips and most importantly get your fix of BoP when not airborne with friends. And I mean friends, I owe a hell of a lot to many people here who without the past 2 years would have been hell. A group of us even got together at the Duxford flying legends last July. McQ and Kav even flew over from Norway!!! And all as a result of THIS game!
What I'm trying to say is let's keep it civil gentlemen, save the venom for the real idiots and give the knowledge to those that want it.

I don't know but it is beyond me why every once in a while we see a lot of hostility all at once, how can flying and acting out air to air combat bring so much negative attitude towards this forum?

I know we're shooting each other, but still..:)

Well I dont know about the rest of the lads on here but this flares up when someone gets their priorities wrong for me. On this occasion Mav overstepped a couple of marks. Being great on playstation is cool and all but for me the real heroes dont get near a PS3:
