How about this- you're flying a one-gunner and you pull the gun damaged chit. You aren't doing anyone but your opponents any good.

Although... I would be willing to listen to well reasoned and adult arguments as to why you should stay.

Let me make this clear- I'm not attacking you or jerking your chain. I just feel that an inability to fight offensively is an okay reason to leave.

If you feel otherwise, I really am interested to hear your logic. Being somewhat of a newcomer here, I am sadly deficient in many of the "assumed" rules of chivalry. On top of that, it is almost impossible to get one of you long-term players to state what you consider honorable, and why.

I often feel that I've violated some unspoken rule. I greatly admire many of the senior players, and I wish to fly like them, and with them.

However, if no one tells me when I have offended, I will keep making the same uncouth mistakes.

Let me also make this clear- I have accepted that I am not smart enough or observant enough to figure out proper etiquette just from watching my betters.

Like any puppy, I must be trained in order to be housebroken.

If you are a senior player, please don't take offence. But please do let us know when we err. Speaking for myself, I much appreciate a quick "Don't do such-and-so for this-and=that reason." If I fail to take heed, please feel free to cook until well-done on these boards.

Thanks-
