Dont Bash the Host !!!!
Saturday 26th ...Starlog entry 20562
Just got offline playing for a few hours, maybe 10 dogfight games, noticed some new names up on the board hoasting their own arcade matches... mainly by the way they flew they reminded me of myself just a few weeks ago...kinda like the kids just off stabalisers.....
Now.....there are some aggresive players out there...lets face it we are not here to dance....its a dogfight...as in "fight like a dog".....its why we fly out there on that rendered playground......
So what do the expereinced players do...? Sadly they recognise the new guy's early attempts to toddle into the arena and Rag him like its going out of fasion..... even spent the time riding the news guy's wing just so he had a chance and fend him off and engage the regular guy's just to give him a break .
AND....what happens next....? ...yup the new host gets the miff and quit's the game.....No Score....No Kills....Nothing for anybody in the game.
Sent the 4 of 5 new host players a message to apologise and hook up with the forum so they can get into the game without being bullied. Trouble is I wonder how many will host games now....?
So what I ask is this.....If you start a game and you feel the name hosting the game is new...send a message (I have one saved) to the top players in the lobby....."Dont Beat up the Host".
