Hi,
Gandalf: Actually what I said was a reply to one toon (don't recall the name anymore) that was talking something about booting me heh. I said that I might be a pro in getting booted as it was my 4th game at the time
.. So having this one boot on my record sofar. Hoping not to screw up too much to get more of them hehe.
But ye. I guess it is better to ask from the solo bomber/htt pilot first if he wants to be followed or not by a scout.
And for History: No bad feelings here. I understood the situation though just bit too late hehe. I had turned away from him already but were critically close already I think.
Need to read the documentation and wiki's couple of time more to get more familiar with the stuff and tactics to be able to follow the game bit better.
Br,
John Barman

Do you know we run a training Course with access to a newbie forum where you can ask as many questions as you like?
To sign up - click the allegiance training in My sig. And select the "Allegiance Flight School" at the bottom (there's more information about it there too)

Whoops I misheard-then
Good to see you didn't take it really personally and throw a hissy-fit on your way out like some do.

John, notJarvis there is the boss of our training program, and coordinates that AFS program I mentioned. Highly recommended.

WoW? What's that?
The only WoW I am familiar with is the "Weight On Wheels" master safe on fighter aircrafts... And in F16 Allied Forces for instance..
I guess in Alleg it would be DFWD... (Don't Fire While Docked)

I've only came across using toon for a character or alias online is from World of Warcraft players. I'd be interested to know where you got it from?

Fair enough. Just a pet hate.

Ah that's a shame. But yes, GriM_ReaPer@BS was getting dangerously close by following you. It takes a few seconds to boot someone so I wasn't looking at you at the very end. Actually looking at the log it seems I only gave you 10 seconds warning minus time-to-boot. I can assure you it seemed like a lot longer at the time
