ok... I know you all are tired of hearing about flux this and flux that and x ios too uber and y is'nt uber enough and everything like that but here's another one. And don't respond to this if you don't read it all cause that just makes for a biased opinion on the subject. Anyways, I don't usually play much anymore since 1.482 came out but every once in a while I'll jump in the MV to help out the ICC.
Now, I don't use flux cause I find it to be cheap and require no skill to use it. I mean what do people get out of pressing the V button besides easy kills? i find it much more fun to sit there and dog fight a person one on one rather then getting fluxed having to run whilst I have no JD and trying to dodge 4-5 people point jumping me. And 9 times out of 10 the flux fries all my systems including the jump drive so I can't jump away, so I just SD and deny the pursuers the kill. This post is mainly directed at those that use flux over and over again.
I know it's a valid tactic and all but I mean come on put the flux down and try dogfighting with a person. I mean even if you use emp cannons it's not as bad as getting fluxed and having to try and dodge 4 or 5 players.
Now I ask all you flux users how would you feel if you were on the recieving end of getting fluxed and your JD gets knocked out? I mean all I want is a decent dogfight for once without the fear of a flux boat jumping in and taking me out of the game with 1 press of a button. If that's too much to ask then.... I honestly don't know why I waste the time here.

UGTO "developed" Flux Weapons.
UGTO Cant Use Half of them on their Battleships.
Kluth can use all of thrm.
WHY?! Give my EAD the Flux Beams back.
I'd happily trade not beeing able to use kluth stuff, if Kluth can't carry human stuff. Flux for Example...
Now flux NEVER was fair, i wont argue about that.
ICC always had to feel the end of the beatstick, but at least they had 2 very nice cruisers. And of course those ships got nerfed.
Kluth always had autorepair, while flux WAS danegerous for their hull, it never had the DEVASTATING effeckts on theirsubsystems.
I mean: Human ships simply drop dead. Kluth ships slow down, at best.
When kluth had c2k's, we could at least fight back.

Y?!???!!!!1!1!! OMG GIEV MAH AAD TEH FLUX BMS BAK

You want to get flamed - OK, so it be
i "flame" you of posting very read-unfriendly
a CR here and there would help people, to read the whole post
many thanks
to the topic, there is only one thing - we know, we know
as long, as there is no "code-solution", you have to ask for some little ammount of fairness

as i see it the most happy fluxy fraction is the icc i usaly only mount flux waves when i see those multiple happy blue flux stars emmiting from any icc ac and bc.
i allways have them ready to go in my sy just in case and you should know that since flux dont hurt so much on kluth as it does on icc / ugto

I am getting ******* tired of all these flux rants. SHADDAP ALREADY!!!!
Complaining and whining won't get anything done faster. And if it does go faster, it'd come out all buggy like 1.482 was because you people couldn't shut up. I am sick of finding the forums filled with lamers whining about every little thing. Gee, if you don't want to get fluxed, STAY AWAY FROM THE FLUXERS!!!!!
Just target a ship and press th ">" key to look through their components. If you see many fluxwaves, missile bombard it to death.

yeah right its not like you can pick the people you fight, the only way to avoid them would be to not play the game.
