Hello, and welcome to the SPAD SQUAD official thread! We are a new squadron created on February 23, 2020, and we are always recruiting new members! Normally we use the invitation system, but we also accept requests. In this squadron you will find very good pilots who can be considered as 'young talents' because of their low rank (no one in this squadron is over rank 30 currently, except when Phillipson enters during a limited time because he likes to change squadrons regularly ) and their flying skills.

Why is the squad called like that? This was going to be a tribute to all those 'little killers' who can be found in WW1 rooms, and who sadly leave the game in most cases. Little killers usually aren't subscribed and can't buy premium aircraft, so their main planes are the SPAD XIII and the Pfalz D.III. Because most premiums like Germany, their regular plane is the allied, in this case the SPAD. I was one of them, and that plane made me an ace (believe me, it's a good plane, I've brought down lots of jets with it).

We don't have a true military structure: there is a MORAF, a co-MORAF who helps the boss, and the rest of pilots. The only functions of the MORAFs are recruiting new members and kicking those who don't play or do something illegal.

This squadron is only for active players, so if you are going to stay without playing for a while, please connect at least once per week to make us know you are still there and didn't left the game.

Remember that this is YOUR squadron, so feel free to post here. Our thread is also open for people who aren't in our little group.

RULES:

1. The basics: no swearing, no teamkilling, no spawnkilling... to stay in the game without being banned.

2. RESPECT the noobs, help them when they ask for info if you can. The SPAD SQUAD is like a school squad, SO THIS IS NON NEGOTIABLE.

3. Shoooting your squadron mates is allowed.

Because the rules are very soft, most infractions are very grave and will result in an immediate expulsion. Only two guys heve been kicked, so don't worry.

ETHICS:

Ethics aren't like rules, you don't have to follow them. However, if you want to be a true SPAD Squader, you'll have to follow some.

1. Fly ALL your planes, not only the best you have, to show the enemy that you don't need a jet to beat him.

2. Sneaking is allowed, but don't do it if your team is much bigger than the other.

3. We carry our bombs in bombing missions, however you can drop them if you need to defend your base (when you finish, reload again).

4. Most of us do NEVER spawnkill (that includes the 'bomb run exception'), but it's allowed (only for that exception).

5. If you aren't going to shoot a squadron mate in a dogfight match, go far of his position, don't bully anyone.

6. Cover your teammates, especially the ones with the worse aircrafts.

7. It's OK if you want to avoid someone's head on attack, but if his plane is worse than yours, don't shoot him at the back or turnfight, because he has no chance of defending.

Felicidades por tu nuevo Escuadron Paco. Sigue adelante y mata muchos rojos. Nos vemos en el cielo D.F.

Jejeje gracias Montymor.

Congratulations for your success Paco!!! Now 20 members and there are more and more pilots everyday!

Guys we are #48 squadron in the global rank! TY ALL 41 MEMBERS [8-April-2020]

Guys, we are a LOT of members (49), so I'm going to start kicking those members who stopped playing a long time ago (40-50 days ago). This is just for making space for new members who request to join us. If you have been kicked and want to join us again, you can do it normally in the 'Squadrons' section, posting on the global chat or posting here. Exceptions can be done. You can also tell us that you are out for a while.

Guys, zuperman disabled chat for non-premium users, even the squadron chat. I can not text you anymore. If you want something, write it here. I suppose that all good things must come to an end. Have a nice day.

Today we finally reached the #40 position on the squad ranking!!! [May 26th, 2020]. Thanks to ALL the people that are (and were) in our squadron, and especially to our greatest members: Quickdeath, Spycakes, Määä41, Hippus, ABE2010, freddie f, Zimmerli, Dick Best, KamikazeToaster, Lisa Manoban...

Let's go now for #35!!!

Fun game with some SPAD squaders.




Good job with the last bomb Sik!

Should I remark that all your 76 kills were scored IN A BLACK PFALZ? Good job man, and good job all the others (Sikorsky, freddie f, Exo, farkinell, HATED-ONE and Luke Skystalker). I think nobody left, and the game finished 2 minutes before the end, so it was a close one.

Yesterday we hit #29 in the ranking! [June 30, 2020] Thanks a lot for your effort guys!

Sadly, it's not all good news. We hit #29 and not #30 because yesterday a squadron was deleted: Warmachine (probably because Weapon X got tired of his ban and deleted the squadron too). It's always so sad to see a squadron's death. At least nobody played recently and got kicked.

Lol guys you're awesome we have a really good position on that ranking, and the best plane in our squad I think it's Quickdeath's Hurricane...

And also why doesn't anyone else post here? I know you are reading this! I feel a bit alone here hahaha!

Juan Marni said - “And also why doesn't anyone else post here? I know you are reading this! I feel a bit alone here”

What do you mean. I guess most of the action happens in other places in the forum
P.S. - yes I am posting on the forum yay!

OH YEAAAAAAAH!!!! Quickdeath earned the last points, and we finally got OUR FIRST MILLION!!!





Good job guys!!!

Yes, guys, the SPAD SQUAD Discord server has just been created, and it's open for all our members! If you want to enter, just tell me and I'll send you a private message with the link. I am pretty fresh in Discord, so please be patient with me .

[EDIT ANSWERING]

1. It could be used for casual communication and for announcements BUT IT WILL NOT BE THE ONLY PART WHERE I ANNOUNCE THINGS, I will keep using the thread too.

2. Logically, no swearing, respect the rest of the members... and only English please!

3. My first time, I haven't even entered in the web before.

4. Only SPAD Squaders, that's why I send the invites in private messages.

Well, that’s great!
But I have a few questions I want to ask
1. Discord is used mainly for casual communication and is almost never used for other things. Will you use our server for casual use or formal?
2. Are there going to be any rules for staying in the server without being kicked out or banned? ( rules like no swearing is fine )
3. Is this your very first time with discord or have watched any people using it?
4. Last question- Are only SQUAD members allowed, or are only DFE players are allowed or is our server for everyone?

By the way, take your time to answer these.

Thanks for that! I don't want another session of “language lessons with DFE pilots”

What a turnfight at the allied base! Almost everyone ran out of fuel!
