Well obviously I want people to come play on server that I have partly paid for.

I believe 762 might have better admins nowdays. I can't really argue against that as I haven't played there much.

I think I got kicked from 762 for the wrong reason recently. I was intentionally team killing people as commander, but only got kicked for "fighting commander" even though I was only killing my team. Ah well, enough about that...

Have a question: Is it honorable/fair/just to use a tanks coaxial/hull MG against planes that are in the air? It doesn't seem right when I'm in the plane, but seems ok to me when I'm in the tank. Never have I read that coaxial tank MGs were used against planes and it just doesn't seem normal.

Some tanks even fired its main cannon to low-flying planes. I also seen this on Il-2's AI ground vehicles.

In real world, an Iraqi T-55 fired air-burst shells (using its 105 mm cannon, of course) at British Lynx helicopter that tries to shoot its TOW missile at them. So, it is quite realistic to me to shoot the coax MG at planes.

First of all - shame on you for TK. Wth, man?! Grow up.

Second of all, it's a war game and if you want to be defenseless against an opponent then go ahead. If something kills - it kills, exploit the living hell out of it's effectiveness and if it breaks the game then is should be modified by devs (that is basically the main component of beta testing). Only exceptions: TKs and blatant spawn killing if you're not capturing a CP. Support your temmates, kill your enemies, be a nice guy - this are THE rules.

If you can shoot down a plane, do it. I've killed once or twice a plane with a tank main gun, I was like BOOM HEADSHOT!

I killed a Stuka once with a Boys rifle on Mersa Matru. I felt awesome after words.

Fortunately, these are rare kill. More likely, a pilot gets killed by another plane, AA guns or crashing.

So no need to change anything.
