    Its easy, the moment your team get arrsy………..shoot them!!:diablo:

    PMSL…already had one of those moments. Was issued with a dumb gamer tag when first went online with X-Box live. Started playing a team game and some kid who had been p***ing us all off with his singing screeched “what kind of dumb *********** name is that?”…so I walked up to him and put an energy sword through his chest…”Betrayal!” as the game would declare, much to the amusement of the other team members lol

    TonyT…I remember playing Pong so don’t feel too bad lol. Maybe, as a work colleague of mine puts it “when I get some adult games” (COD Modern Warfare or Battlefield 2 Bad Company) maybe we can have a few rounds some time

    I always thought a nerd was an extreme geek…i.e. a geek knows a lot about something where as a nerd knows a lot about something and could probably learn what he/she doesn’t know at the flick of a page

    Errrm…..

    What, exactly, is the OP going on about? :confused:

    Would any young person care to translate?

    Hi Grey Area,

    Sorry, decided to start ranting about the situation with online game play. I am a proud owner of an X-Box 360 who, despite not having much time in between work and relationship, enjoys playing with other gamers worldwide. Forgive me if you already know this but with online gaming, players can communicate with team members while “in game”. All too often, some players get a little carried away and make rather abusive comments towards other players and it can get a “little frustrating”.

    A lot of the older gamers (25-40+….believe me there are gamers in their fifties out there ; ) ) can get a little bit too excited about watching their teams lose. I’m just wondering if there are any players out there who can explain why a man/woman in his/her thirties or forties can take the game so seriously as to feel that he/she must resort to sending verbal abuse and threats of violence (not that I believe for 1 minute that a person living thousands of miles away would ever come to the UK and hunt me down over a friggin game).

    I’m wondering, being a new online player, if anyone here has had any experience and if they came up with a way to avoid the more “enthusiastic” players that X-Box Live has to offer

    As has already been mentioned, not everything in service with Iran’s armed forces is aimed at wiping out carriers. BadLt58, besides them being piloted by Iranians what makes you think they are for suicide attacks?
    A cheap and affordable recon asset is more than likely the answer to this “riddle”. Think how many they could produce in a short time. Simple? Yes. Expendable? Yes. Effective? Who knows?

    Thought this was interesting. Least the pilots of the Foxbats were aggresive enough to try and dogfight

    I love discussions like this. Rumours start that a nation like China or Russia, both are developing stealthy fighters. It becomes “pictures or it never happened”. So grainy photos appear, then it becomes “photoshopped” or “faked” or some other rubbish. so then eventually, like in the example of the T-50 photos of the first flight are revealed and (I have no doubts this will happen in the cae of the J-20) people start with the “it’s an obvious copy of XXXXX”
    Bloody hell people, get a life. Realise that the US and European companies aren’t the only ones on the whole planet to have the ability to produce an aircraft.
