Sorry, raum, but have been booted countless times over your career.

Every stopped to evaluate why you got booted each particular time and try to improve upon it? I just think that if you want to look deeper into the booting process it's only fair you look deeper into the reasons you got booted. You're never too old to learn and improve.

And I get that you said there was some sort of miscommunication this time about sitting so the game would stay even. But the countless times you've been booted before that likely weren't all for no good reason.

Funny PM I just got from someone.

QUOTE I saw something interesting and I'm going to take this one to you personally.

This is a case of victim blaming, in which an aggrieved person is accused of being the reason they were treated poorly. Why, the most common case of victim blaming I can think of can be put together if I just replace-all 1 word in your post.

"Sorry, raum, but have been raped countless times over your career.

Usually it's a case of the victim being too scantily clad, and it's the victims fault they got raped. Instead of asking the rapist (or the commander in this case) to just be a decent person, they look to make the victim out to be the one at fault.[/quote]

Don't find fault, find a remedy; anybody can complain.

My career? I'm getting paid to play this game?

Guess what....I'll be playing less from now on.

I try to explain to comms ahead of time that I have to fly mostly with my keyboard. I don't always do that.I'm also on DSL,so sometimes what I see on the mini map is not what i find when I launch. I try to stick to naning. Sometimes I post that I'm going AFK for 3 mins. and I come back and I'm booted...I'm fine with that.

Amazing how many times I have seen this topic come up.

Long live the boot, get the F*** over it or learn to command yourself.

this problem is solved by always leaving defections on. maybe we can get it turned on per default?
