softy2: "You came here to whine about people not giving you respect for driving the prom and gets pwned by people telling you they don't really care whether you drive the prom or not."

Wrong. You are either an idiot softy, or you didn't read more than one word I've typed. Once again you people disappoint me. I said in my first post and I have repeated, I do not fly the thing. I have never fought in it, I have never died in it, I have never killed in it. If you find one player in the game who has seen me (Nolan Faux/Everson,B/Pancakes of Fluffy) kill or die in a prometheus of any kind except Nautargos- who was present when I first got access months ago and naturally that means fly one for the sake of investigation- I'll buy you a year of VO. I fly fighters. The hog is too heavy for my tastes, let alone hornets, rags, or proms. Anyone with whom I usually play the game can tell you this.

Edit: I even lack the level requirement for the SCP. I'd need another level of heavy. http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/stats/92813/

I want the whining on both sides gone. I request and demand this as a neutral party. Get it now? Make sense yet?

bojansplash: "And to tell you the truth, valk is not so uber. I killed valks in ec107, rev c, ibg, marauder, taur, wraith... almost any ship available in VO."

Also off topic and irrelevant. Here is why: A light ship survives by evading hits. Evasion is by FAR more skill based than survival through armor. It also means you have the potential to engage more targets. Armor runs out if the hits keep coming, but hits you never take do not add up. Note: this here is why I do not respect Rags. They really are hit magnets. All that is required to defeat a rag is patience and the ability to dodge. They have truly filled the role for which they were designed, and that is putting ordinance downrange. When I fly the Ragnarok, I fly it for one reason alone: destroying capital ships.

Thus, in the hands of a good fighter pilot, I argue the valk is the better ship. The test of this theory is simple.. sit a good pilot in a prom. See how many times he can destroy the same enemy (someone decent, but not as great, flying something shruggable like a cent 3) without repairing. Then do it again in a valk. Compare the numbers.

Heck, advanced combat practice on the way to level 9 felt like that. Whats this? Another assault bot. Got it, took 5% damage. Got another, no damage. Got another, I was too close when it popped..

I diverge. Darn you all for being off topic. Why didn't you read LeberMac's post? He got the entire point of the thread and put it in '1002 words' (in view of a picture being worth a thousand).

Do I sense some righteous anger for being misunderstood there Everson? :P
Take it easy.
We all have stories to tell about VO combat. Things I said about valk are not irrelevant since you asked for my opinion.
Somehow you skipped the part of my sentence after "...ibg..." or at least, you responded by comparing light fighters and a valk.
Corvus marauder, Axia wraith and centaur mk3 or agresso are all great valk killers.
Of course it greatly depends on the pilot using them. But thats the case with almost any ship in VO, except SCP. :D

Now to cut a long story short or the way you like it:

1. There is no prom haters club.
2. Everybody whines. Whining will never stop, its a human nature thing.
3. Everybody dies, regardless of the ship they are using.
4. Go play, have fun and try not to whine too much. Thats about everything you can do atm.

Noes bojan! No!

We, here, who have read this thread have an obligation to stop whining ourselves. We are the enlightened! I don't whine, so I say to visitors to this thread: do you?

CRYBABY!

bojan: Aramarth addressed this thread TO the Serco Pilots who fly proms and whine about being ganked.

He's not whining about being ganked in a prom. He's whining about the prom pilots who whine about RECEIVING the ganking.

Although, in everyone else's defense, he didn't exactly make that crystal clear in his 1st couple of posts.

Sheesh.

Oh, and - HEY Martin! :)

Er... for perfect clarity.. at the outset of this thread I was trying to convince people to stop whining about the SCP being overpowered. It has grown and evolved into a campaign against all whining everywhere in vo.

@bojansplash the whiner: Say all you want, those PKS I got off you with swarms are staying in my stats.
Feb 19, 2007 bojansplash link
@jex: I am really happy I provided you with something you can brag about.
Enjoy your stats. :)

P.S.
FM is still a Ninny!

Uh, I'll get my word in before it's locked.

I don't mind the griefing, and I almost always fly a prom. And for the record, I put strategy into my SCP, not the common Flares/AGT.

There.

/me waits for 8foot tall beer cans to come crashing down on most of the posters in this thread (like the milwalkee's best light commercial, yuk) for being crybabies.
