Nonsense. It's a game. You are shooting pixel bullets at pixel pilots. If you cannot distinguish between what happens online and the reality of war, then you are taking this far too seriously.

And besides, if you shoot them during the time between when they jump and their parachute opens then you are not "chute shooting". It's darn difficult, and great sport.

1) It is a game (WWII Air combat Simulation)

2) You actually shoot at nothing (moving pixels)

- so far all this, is correct.


However, when playing On-line and at the other end there's another person,

then shooting at a bailing pilot or a crippled, soon to crash land, single, 2 or 4 engine AC,

Illustrates exactly how uncultured, disturbed, dysfunctional & antisocial someone is

Exactly because of the above 2 agreed upon thesis.

Why?

Because you will get your points anyway ..aren't you ...??

So what are you really after with this behaviour???

My answer to that is ... a revenge against society because of your
challenged state. (psychological - emotional - etc ...)

This kind of behaviour is one of a very dark matter ....



by the way all is OFF TOPIC guys !!!!!!

back to Flying Boats please eh?

Says the man (boy?) with SS in his sig line...

I do agree with you one one thing though, we do need the flying boats to be made player usable.

S! is just the generic online greeting/mark of respect, though, i.e. salute!

I dont get what the problem is with shooting a bailing pilot in real life is, let alone in this game. The whole point is to kill or be killed, you want to bail out in front of me your going to get a bullet in the ass. If I could be certain not to damage my aircraft I would save ammo and run into him with my prop, but thats just me, a bloody American.
