Well, I've only done 4 or 5 missions with you , so I don't really know anything about you.

I do know a few things about the rest of these guys however.
First off, most of us are old enough to be your grandfather, hell, Wingit is probably old enough to be your great-grand father. :lol:
We tend to do finicky precision jobs that a lot of people consider dull. We do it because we tend to like nitpicking details.
Most of us have been playing this game for YEARS.
I've been here for more than 10 years myself and I'd bet I have more time in every single game unit than you have total game time.

You are a noob and we can make allowances for that, but we expect that you will do your homework, which means practice and read the manuals.
If you DO need help, we can do that but in the meantime, as they say, RTFM!

Old guys don't act like teenagers and we aren't going to treat you like a kid.
You had best develop a thick skin quickly.
Nobody will pick on you specifically, but if you screw up, be prepared to be laughed at.
Don't get too cocky either, until you can back it up.
Respect is earned not given.

Ultimately, I'd say it's your call whether you go or stay. (Unless you piss off Reddog of course :iconbiteme: )
If you stay, be prepared to put up with some shit until you get accepted.
If you leave, no hard feelings, there are plenty of other good squads out there.

good post tz

i would agree, its ultimately your decision you have to want to be here and enjoy what we do in order to stay. we have had plenty of people come in because they enjoyed RDP bombing but then they didnt stick around because they just didnt like it as much as we do and didnt want to bomb as much as we do.

Agree with TZ.

Oh, by the way, I have grandchildren as old as (and older) than you Nathan :toke:

Joining a squad is a two-way thing: We'll all help you when we can. You have to meet us half-way by reading/looking at training vids etc. and practice, practice, practice.

I want to see you put 10 in the box next time we fly. :lol:
