I dont really care for it much, since the fact is we dont need to develop skill on not shooting teammates when 99% of the servers DONT choose that option.

RC, you have to create one more option than you want to use. The poll function drops the last one. Unfortunately, there's not fixing it after someone has responded.

I remember there being a complaint about the lack of options in polls, but a quick search only revealed Jim's post about not liking polls, and later enabling them and capping 'em at 4 options. But this was back shortly after the switch from UBB to phpBB.

Never mind that the DBB is a bunch of poll noobs and often give 4+ options in what should be a Yes or No poll.

IMME almost everyone is shooting too friggin' much!CEASE FIRE!! CEASE FIRE!!....CONTROL YOUR FIRE SOLDIER! Geez...and you'd think the whole lot of veteran players would really know better :P heh, nope. I believe that FF is designed with total control in mind. You wanna be a 'Top 8) Gun'? It takes more than gettin' the most kills (be dam who's in the way)...now you have to step it up a notch flyboy and pull up when your fire crosses your teams hull!time for evasive manuevers, enemy heading @ six o'clock!

And you thought you were through learning!
:wink:


Money! I quoted you 'cause you said "[teammates]they get in the way and get killed" :wink: :lol:

Heh I'm with you bro. I actually kinda like friendly fire, but I gotta agree with Bubba: they complain with every little accident. I couldn't care less if a teammate killed me because I know they aren't gunnin' for me, but people like TCO-Busted ( :shock: did i say that?) really get on my nerves sometimes.

Maybe some day Busted will explain some of his theories to you all. I find it quite amusing, I assure you.

One of my favorites is about packets:

If I recall correctly, When two big packets love each other very very much, they get together and give each other a very special kind of hug, which makes little packets, to replace all the lost packets.

Last time I played FF, Scratch got the most kills in the whole game..on his own team :D

Once we played D3k, (was supposed to be a tourney match) and ended up fighting our own team for the best negative score. We ended up tying at -26.

Wow, an all time low in D3. Did you think we could sink any lower? ;)
