Glad your wife is ok Drew.

RVR will eat up anyone in this game unless they are account hoppers. That is how the game is, too open to manipulation by xteamers and too little incentive to put in the hard work. It is frustrating, don't let it burn you out.

The pvp in this game is good, focus on that and keep the rvr as low priority. All that really matters in this game is how many people you sink and whether you can go on without worrying about losses.

The real world isn't all that different, you do your best with what you have, somebody elde is always better, somebody else is shamelessly cheating to get ahead. You focus on you and the people close to you and everything goes good in time.

So i take it a game were all the players wear lycra pantyhose, wear more padding than any modern mbt, only actually play for about 10 minutes of the 4 or more hours it takes a game to drag out is a REAL MANS game. I think not. Rugby players take as many and as heavy hits as any american handball player takes and actually plays for a full 80 mins with only one break! Get a life and accept rugby is the real mans game and is why it is played worldwide by many many nations not just 2 or 3.

Obviously you havent watched the two much. Yes Rugby players take hits sometimes even severe ones. You dont have close to the same violence of impact in Rugby though on an ongoing basis as you do in football. For one thing you dont have near the free space to build up steam prior to impact. That said. Its hard to tell who gets the worst of many of the collisions in both sports the hitter ... or the hittee.

The "big problem" is with the attitude of the Brit players who you say will leave if they don't win.

Instead of thinking they somehow "deserve" a map win, they need to get rid of this entitlement mentality and realize that it is not an issue of "deserve" at all, but instead simply is an issue of whether they manage to win or not.

This is my final statement. The forum tone toward British captains is a massive detriment. How many immature statements and mockings do British captains have to go through before they find out that there job that pays 70,000 a year is more important than what some 12 year old pirate who loves to type LOLBrit all day is worth.

This going to sound very haughty but the main difference between British captains and the folks who attack them on the forums is that THEY HAVE REAL LIVES. They make substantial money in their jobs and don't have 24 hours a day to play a game where they are ridiculed by someone who has no job and is under the age of 15.
It does sound "very haughty." Hell, more like "delusional arrogance."

There is simply no basis for claiming that Brits have a more mature population base than that of other nations.

Regardless, it is simply contemptible to imply that people should be judged according to how much money they make. I don't give a crap how much, or how little, other players in this game may make. That you seem to think it is important says a lot about you, and it is not flattering.

This thread is a joke right?

As if you know anything about this forum Drew, it is that almost no one here is going to take pity on the Brits. If you can win the map DO IT!

Don't give us excuses as to what will happen if you don't. No one really cares.

Those individuals you may lose by not winning this map will be replaced eventually. The game's population has been akin to paddling up stream for sometime now. Deal with it and don't feed the trolls for cripes sake!

Glad your wife is okay too Drew.

But be honest here; y'all hit rat ports last Wednesday because you thought it would be easy wins to get over 300 points, no? So it didn't work out.

We just wanted another week on this map, and that's the truth.

Soon as I got a falcon I solo fleeted.

I think info badger has a screenshot of a brit mace sinking to a fleet...
Actually, You jumped in a 1v1 battle just to gank...pot kettle black. And just like many temporary brits, you won't be missed if you quit.

Tough love is fine, being a **** about it, well that's why no one likes you.

And really..who are you? So far haven't seen much experience...

#1 if you want to 1v1 call it outso the restof the world knows

#2 the guy had a group, they left him to die, we wish they had jumped in

#3 they are enemies. We weren't looking to gank, you were the only failfitter there

#4 you hit him right before I was in range, was he a friend you wanted to save?

#5 brits were getting ganked out there,we put our group together to clean up the zone. That's what we did.

and why would I care about your opinion? I don't. You're a good guy but you should accept I'm here and if you hit somebody to prevent me from hitting them you will find that I will jump in and kill them if you didn't call it out.

I always honor arranged 1v1, that wasn't one
