I was on the server last night, and I saw your comments - something about "farming team work points" or what not. Its true, thats what we were doing; we were using a strategy that kicked major ass, and we knew that as a clan, we can count on each other to repair/equip/heal all the members in the chopper as necessary, because everyone has an assigned role.
We use Ventrilo ( which is like Team speak) so that we are in constant communication with the pilot who knows where to turn, where not to go, etc.
When we have someone who wants a fair share at a gunning position, well... it just fucks EVERYTHING up because now we have a loose cannon doing pretty much anything he wants and not knowing what is going on. That puts everyone on the chopper at risk.
So... rather than putting everyone at risk, it was a calculated move on our part to strategically eliminate any factors that could lead to our early demise. Unfortunately, you were a casualty of that. Sorry that you had a shitty experience, but when we consider the factor of clan members who have known each other for years having a good time, versus your wants (a new guy we dont know) to have a shot at the gunner seat - the decsion is pretty easy for us.
If you do make enough money to start your own server, I dont understand why you just dont start your own? Using your "kid w/ the ball" example, everyone tolerated the kid, because they couldnt get their own ball.... you obviously can.... so why not?
