I waited for 22 minutes in the main game (from 10 minutes in until it finished), commanded by hatkyinc, without being accepted. I am Lvl 9, yet at least 3 higher-level players were selected before me. Yet, from the start, yellow was stacked. For most of that time, yellow was down one or two pilots.

And this isn't the first time it happens.

Can I ask what was the point of refusing me and several others? You eventually lost. Surely I would have been useful, at least marginally.

P.S.: please spare me the "stop whining, noob" answers.

Not sure what happened there as I was on the opposite team but they were very determinedly bombing so he might've been busy for a while. But yeah, you were requesting for a long time, did you try and PM him or something? I know he dropped later so perhaps you were trying to ask on when the AFK (0) had command.

Apparently hatykinc was in very poor form, he dropped command on a noob at the end...

Yeah, comms tend to get busy and fail to notice the join requests (I know it happens to me sometimes). In such cases, just PM them with something like 'Care to accept?' or something. Just blinking there is somstimes not enough /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

I tried. That wasn't the problem. He accepted, while I was there, two higher-ranked players. Is there really any game where the commander is so busy he can only distract himself from the game long enough to accept one player, but not two, and then no one after that, until someone else higher then 10 showed up?

This is alleg. you don't get it your way. stop whining, noob.

PM someone in noat and ask them if the want to practice commanding on another server.

Dunno aye. Keep requesting every 30 secs (as in get back on noat and request again), that way they keep hearing "player request". There is no way they can ignore that annoying sound and so you will get accepted or pmed to join other team

If you just stayed blinking for >5min, the comm will assume you just clicked join then went afk.

I've never even heard of this hatynic guy or whatever so I wouldn't worry about it

If it's spidey, keep PMing him every 2 or 3 seconds.

If you are level 9 you aren't a newbie, you are a voob. /ninja.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ninja:" border="0" alt="ninja.gif" />
