Completely different subject, a very late one to be discussing (by one day), but I finally read over your post in detail, Blackwolf, and it bothered me how you set up Aoi to immediately be a novice and a bad shot, going so far as stating;
Blackwolf said
He could simply tell by the way the Pilot held the rifle that he wasn't a threat, he had the barrel sticking out of the rocks, how his hand held the butt like a machine gun to keep that rapid fire steady, instead using it to slightly guide the rifle for smooth motion. He probably wouldn't know how to properly adjust for bullet drop, and also meant it was sighted for him. Though That M1A was a good rifle, it was not a factor as it is useless in the hands of that pilot at any distance past maybe 15 meters.
Normally, decisions about the character's skills and what he is doing should fall into the writer of the character's hands, not another player. I didn't say in any of my former post that he was a bad shooter, in fact, I made him state the opposite. Thus, this would fall into the category of being a strain of power-playing, which is usually frowned upon.
I'm not trying to be a jerk, just stating my own opinion and preferences and if you could do something about this, I would be extremely appreciative of it.
