You know the scenario, your the only person waiting for an aircraft to spawn for about 10 mins and someone comes up and tries to crowd you out or just gets the aircraft before you. How about waiting your turn instead of jumping in line? This is part of the reason ppl tk for aircraft.
This applies to any vehicle but it is worse with planes and helo's.
Show some common courtesy and wait your turn!! :x

Well, Im all for taking turns, me and a few people have done It on a regular basis. BUT when the team Is loseing or the other team has some hella good pilots, back off and let the ones who are good at It take them. Now Im not saying Im the best pilot around, far from It, but I REALLY dislike when someones bombing the hell out of us and some guy keep taking the plane as a transport to the enemy hanger. :wallbash:

You have no way of knowing at the time if that's what they're going to do. In fact, you're one of the guys this is directed at. You tried to push me out of the way yesterday. Keep in mind we don't always use the same names in game that we use here.

I tried the taking turns thing, but it doesn't work out. You've always got someone who's greedy who tries to get the plane before you. You've got the jerks who just want the plane as a quick way of getting into a good sniping spot (I hate being in the backseat of the bomber when that jerk bails and doesn't tell you). I don't think I should "lose my turn" when I get shot down by friendly fire. If I see someone else from the community, I'll share, but other people I don't know, first come first serve; or rather, first in the cockpit, first serve.

How else would you know who's turn it is.
In regards to getting shot down by FF, it doesnt give you the right. No offense but that's just silly. You had your turn, the outcome doesnt matter.

I don't really care if it seems silly or not. I'm standing by this.

Aye, my forum name Is the same as my game name, keeps things simple. And If I did 'push' you It was most likely after you came bolting at me and pushed me outta the way, so excuse the hell outta me. I normaly give people a wide berth so I can get out of the way before I get rundown If I dont get the plane. The only time I get pushy Is when 4 people crowd on top of me and start pusing me around. If I moved and ran Into you then sorry, I dont try to force other to give me the plane.
And your telling me I cant read a map? When the same guy hops in the plane 4 or 5 times, flys over the enemy hanger and at the same spot ditchs the plane, normaly behind the hanger. I think Its kinda obvious what hes doing.

Exactly!!
What I ment was the people who know how to fly well, can do some damage, and can lose and enemy on his or her tail with little problem.
Take me for example. I can fly okay (useing a mouse right now :wallbash:) and sometimes I find an enemy pilot that cant shake his head much less a missle. Other times I find people who not only lose my missles In a heart beat, but USE them as well. Like one guy (I want to say lite_my_fire but im not sure) let me fire a few at him just to pull up and have both hit a friendly blackhawk killing 5 of my teammates.
Im not saying people new to flying planes shouldnt, Im just saying If you see someone you know Is good In a plane, let them have It over you. And yes, Iv bowed out of waiting for planes plenty of times. Sometimes because I dont feel like being shot for It, or getting a TK cause I know the guy and hes going to run in front of the plane. Other times because I know the guy can dust me In a plane any day.
As I said at the start, Im all for taking turns, but I would rather the guy ahead of me use the plane how Its ment to be used. Not as a transport or a really big bomb.

You know what trvsmrtn, I really have issues with your attitude. You are only willing to play nice when it is a regular, and that is BS! I have been on the receiving end of your crap in game when I am in under an alter ego. You DON"T own the planes, you don't make the rules, you need to abide by them. You should be fair too! Wait your freakin turn! As for reien, he DOES wait his turn! I have watched him many a time wait, get line jumped by people, you included, and all he does is back off.
so....trvsmrtn....WAIT YOUR FREAKIN TURN!

I never said I own the plane and I'm not trying to make rules. I abide by the rules and I try to be considerate of other community members. I'm sorry if you think I'm a jerk because you're on your alt and I beat you or someone else to a vehicle. If someone else beats me to a jet (community member or not), I don't whine about it, tk, or grief and give them an intentional tk. I wait patiently for that person to crash, or I go do something else.
As far me jumping in front of Reien, unless he plays under a different name, I've never heard of him, much less played with him or jumped ahead of him for an aircraft. And reading what Snake is writing, Reien doesn't seem to be the patient saint that you're making him out to be.

Let me just throw in that "vehicle whoring" is an offense. I've kicked a few people before for this.

Never said I was one Snake, If anything I most likely hopped at you or was just messing around, like I said, I dont force people to give me the planes. You know my name, If you see me In game and we happen to be on the same side, and your waiting for the plane, tell me to shove off, Ill most likely do It. Unless of corse you'v either TKed me for It or ran In front of It and caused me to get a TK.
But I dont know your In game name so I dont know If you have.
And Drayu, thanks for the support but Im not out to prove anything. I dont really take the time normaly to check who jumps In front of me, but I think Iv seen Tvsmrtn before, but hes not one of the people who hop In front of planes.
And Tvsmrtn, Im going to go out on a limb that you will take snakes word over mine (seeing as his title says hes an owner and Im new to the server) so as I said im not out to prove anything. I can be VERY patient, and Ill admit that sometimes Im not. Ill sit on the side and wait my turn (as most people stop going for the planes after a few runs in them anyways) and I have plowed right through 4 or 5 people sitting on the spawn because Its been 3 maps since the last time Iv gotten one. Mind you by plowed I dont mean TKed them but jumped Into the pile and shoved my way closer to the spawn.
All In all I dont fight over the planes very much, and most of the time I shove at people Its either on accdent or just wasteing time, Iv lost my shot to get In the planes more often then got It that way anyways. So to end this little speal, I do apologise If I annoyed you Snake, It wasnt Intentional and wont happen again. So If we can stop the argument It this post would again be making a valid point.
Vehicle whoreing sucks.

Trvsmrtn, you DO NOT wait your turn, I was waiting there for the plane MULTIPLE times, and you would come up and line jump me EVERY time.
BUT....this is going to turn into a he said she said thread, lets just lock it now.
