Agreed. I'm active in several game-forums, but the combat flightsimmers are a real special group.
IMHO they violate their own rules:
They boresight on a specific thing too often, instead of pulling out to get the full picture.
They rather pick a fight with limited awareness, limited energy and limited chances, than drawing the consequences and leave the battle before it begins.
If they won a fight, they think they are right, no matter if it was pure luck or superior knowledge. And usually the ones fighting a Red Baron won't give up, even if they have to fire with a revolver from the burning wreck on the ground.
And if they lose a fight, they are always convinced it's cheating.
And this is true for game and forum behaviour.
But the conclusion is too often also visible ingame: They rather want to kill that enemy fighter instead of thinking it logic: A wounded fighter is out of the game for the whole time he needs back to base AND the time back into combat, while you still get the points. A killed plane immediately can restart.
As you correctly put it: Too aggressive and too little situational awareness. Just join the furball and fire those comments, er, guns.
