And I am not talking about killing everyone. I have been specifically talking about eliminating the enemy. The enemy means enemy soldiers. Eliminating includes killing, supressing, capturing, whatever to make them not a threat. Forcing an enemy pilot to bail out is like forcing him to do a tactical retreat. Definetly he is not eliminated if bailed out over his lands. He is shooting at you, your friends, and your countrymen next day like in Battle of Britain.
Edit: And if we take "honour" into this, I would be interested to know what kind of honour standards Japanese had. Also I am interested of Polish pilots. Why they fought so mercilessly. At least there is no way I could say they were dishonourable right away. Maybe they had standards like "no mercy untill it is over".
Edit: If it would not be bad for the population inside the genre and if my current squadron would allow I would start fer sure a "chute shooters club" squadron 
Edit: Will someone agro if I say "i lol when I shoot a chute" Such a pity I can't go taunt the squadron I am at war with |
Oh man.....quality counts......hm how far do you get with the best fighters and the best pilots in the world with no fuel? That is what put the Luftwaffe pretty well and the Wehrmacht out of action no fuel. Not masses of killed people. But I am certain you will come up with some arguement saying that is so not right. As to your chute shooting squadron, just try it...I know for sure you would be then banned from the WoP servers real fast, and most squadrons that have been around for some time, have a lot of contempt for chute shooters, if you enjoy flying in a squadron no one wants to fly against, have fun, I am certain you will have lots of matches......
I absolutely agree with winny carrying on here is pointless, as a door has more understanding.
