Then yeah you had some bad experiences there. I've maybe only come across a few vets who might act like that. Most of the time if a newbie asks a question, they'll get answered. Heck I'd like them to because I personally hate getting into the middle of a fight and then they ask how something works. Then it comes up...why didn't they ask in the lobby?

Only guess I have is some folks are scared to approach us. Then others don't have mics. If they don't have a mic thats fine, they can type and we can instruct.

I definitely get ornery if my crew isn't talking.
I tend to start not talking because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings or something.
It's a cycle of terrible.

My biggest problem is tunnel vision. It's difficult to constantly watch the chat in a match. Even in lobby I tend to just glance at it now and then, messages are easily clobbered.
I usually try and help out newbies, but my inexperience as a gunner does not serve me well there. I can engineer and fly, but I'm pretty horrid remembering which ammo does what.

That said, I fly with people better than I am just so I can learn. I watch and ask dumb questions. I appreciate people who ask and question, rather than assume A) I know more than them cause my numbers are higher or B) They know more than everyone on my ship, in spite of our experience.

Either way, the best thing anyone can do is talk, listen, and generally be a stand-up guy or gal.

One time I had a 9 years old kid in my crew that constantly shouted ALL THE TIME and hardly followed orders but with a bit of patience and undertanding I was able to put him to good use, turns out the kid was a crack shot with the lumberjack...
I don't think that I should push my idea further, being polite and helpful to other players shouldn't be something that needs to be justified.

Was that me? I think iwas on your ship once, when I was using the worst mic ever, which was from 2005 and low quality. and that was my first game.

I don't think so, I'm pretty sure the nickname was something about Minecraft... Anyway even if it was you, as I said you did allright in the end, so that's what matters, beside I'm sure you improved a lot since then. :)

Parkourwalrus:
True, when I was on your ship I think it was a double gat pyra.

And i didn't do alright, I was a second gunner who babysitted a side gun  half the match, then left to get my wits together in sandbox, and I'm not 9, though I sound like it.
