First of all I will say I apologize for my earlier post and it was not ment to accuse you of cheating, and I shouldn't have named anyone. I was merely attempting to gain information on possibilities of foul play on combat.netNow that being said- You can knock it off with the legal crap, you're not going to take legal action because you have no legal action. It's called Freedom of Speech and the last time I checked this was still the United States of America! I pretty much live on this forum so I have heard it all and seen it all. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT attempt to come in here and throw weight you don't have around. Now I respect you as a pilot (kicked my ass! lol) and I thought you were a nice guy, But you should really go back with a clear mind and read the original post, I think you will see that you took it all out of context. I hope that this can be put behind us and I wouldn't mind flying with you again sometime as i think you have a lot you could show me. That is all up to you. Sorry about the confusion

Seawolf, apology accepted. But I would like you to keep this in mind, "Win with pride. Lose with dignity." Our squad does not allow me to train non squad members, I am generaly very helpful to newbies when it comes to the minor tweaks that will get them up and running. However I will not discuss op systems BFM, ACM, or any of the other nuances associated with the operation of a modern fighter aircraft. I am an instructor pilot for the 95th, when someone joins our squad I train them to the best of my ability, and nothing pleases me more than to have someone that I have trained wax my ass. If you want top shelf training I suggest you look into joining the 95th or one of the many other squads available. Once again Seawolf, apology accepted. Please think twice in the future, thanks. ========================= Gravey out,

Seawolf, I used to do this all the time in jF15, fly low as possible with sidewinder "uncaged". Be patient, make the other guy turn on his radar. Once he does, you know where he is. Scan the skies with youe eyes (80% of all kills never see a thing). I used to like f15 'cause you didnot race into a furball, you hunted slowly, patiently stalking till, well you know what happens.playing 2v2 or more 1 plane would act use radar or be bait, acting stupid & easy while others (on you side) would be terrain masking trying to get enemys to chase or focus on the "sucker" while other planes worked there way to opponents 6. One more thing, I have never heard of any squads tolerating or advocating cheating of any sort, most care about there reputations too much & also the consequences of being caught would be terribly embarassing. At any rate he probably was flying 50 agl w/ uncaged heaters & eyeballs are your best means of defense. blitz

im an outsider to F18 but here my point anyway , once i was asked by my teacher if i had copied a English Lit essay , i hadnt and that was the greatest praise he could off given. Again ive been accused of cheating in TFC sometimes again i take heart from this , knowing that im not. I dont get annoyed by it.Also some interesting things Seawolf has 900 odd posts a "newbie" but one who has contributed to the F18 comuunity then u have the "expert" gravey he has 6 posts and whats this crap "Our squad does not allow me to train non squad members" what are they the CIA. It's being fair, being helpful to point out the tricks of the trade to newer flyers, maybe your scared your advantage and yours squads advantage will be eroded. So at first i though hmm maybe this guy is good but graveys response have led me to think he isnt and he trying to mask his tactics for some reason. So stop having a go at seawolf and stop putting people off F18, rememeber gravy you where crap once , you where a newbie once , you nothing special even if you can get more kills than most. flight simers have a percieved atitude in the rest of the gaming world as elitest and snobs , im sorry but people like gravey dont help the situation and this is exactly why Janes no longer exists and why so many sims developers have problem's these days. If i knew anything about F18 i would not mind telling all the tricks of the trade, thats how you know your good , not flying against people who dont know the systems but against people who know it off by heart , your good when u can beat the experts, Gravey can you.

" quote: Originally posted by gravey_95th: Seawolf I would first off like to thank you for slandering me in this forum. I hope you realize that this is as good a way as any to subject yourself to legal action." Still ROFLMAO...I feel certain Seawolf is in a corner cringing right now for fear of the wrath of the legal system. Secondly I hope by now you have learned enough about this sim to retract your statement about me cheating. Never saw where a straight forward accusation of cheating was applied to Gravey. Simply questions about why the engagements occurred the way they did. Sounds like fair questions. "Maybe you have learned to fly belly to the dirt to avoid detection. Maybe you have learned that your TEWS(tactical early warning system) is nothing more than a fancy radar detector, and it won't pick up an aircraft that is running radar silent.Maybe you have learned to use your padlock view which operates very nicely withtin a six mile radius.And maybe you've learned to admit when you are wrong." I will certainly be looking for your book when it's released...sounds similar to Janes. "And maybe, just maybe, you owe me an apology. I will accept nothing less. I await your reply.
"Hehe...thats the best part...and nothing less...holding one's breath?...one can only hope....
