Title: Hi, I'm new too
Post by: Bob on September 30, 2006, 12:28:34 AM
While browsing through tonight's new posts when I got back home this evening, I found a post saying  that I was taken up as a Bravo member - that's like just cool :yahoo:

Will use the next week to read up a bit on some of the stuff (tactical BF sounds good - never tried it that serious before) here in the Bravo secured channel, to get ready for the lan.
Hope I ain't too rusty for you guys, haven't really been playing since BF 1942/Vietnam was new...

Nice joining you, and really looking forward to be seeing you in a week :biggrin:

Your skill doesn't matter - it's all about attitude - welcome and if you didn't deserve to be a Bravo you wouldn't be :clap:

Thanks for all the kind words folks, you know how to make one feel welcom ^_^


While I'm at it... I'm going to registert my BF2 account now, but I was dwelling a bit with what character name to use.
My forum name is what it is, due to this forum account was created way before I even had heard of the dMw, when WoW was pretty much the only thing in my head (perhaps it even still is also :crazy:), but Threbrilith ain't even close such a good BF2 name as it is a Night Elf Druid name.  Just try to picture some commander yelling on TS "Threbrilith... THREBRILITH - get ass over here ASAP and cover that bridge"... doesn't quite sound right.

I assume that I'll just end up being called Bob here as well (that being the obvious abbrevation for Threbrilith :P), since quite a few of you know me as that already, so than I perhaps just should go for -=[dMw]=-Bob in the first place?
Any comments?  Will that perhaps conflict in some way with a nick somebody is already is using?  I know at least that we have FATBOB, and I think I've seen somebody with another similar one as well :g:

Hmm, not a bad suggestion at all :g:  It's kind of an easier way to say Threb, just with a little twist.

But it's kind of starting to pile up with different handles now... Got Threbrilith, Threb and Bob - a fourth one will put me one step closer to :wacko:
Think perhaps -=[dMw]=-Bob is still a bit ahead, if it doesn't conflict with any existing dMw'er.

But I'll give it some more thought, and I very much welcom more suggestions :biggrin:

Well I play with my name in BF2 and yes it causes trouble ("Attack that flag, de-... What? de-lan-vi-tal. What the f*ck is that?") but here in dMw I am just referred to as del or delan now - so basically, stick to a name you like and let people figure out what to call you :smile:

Oh and welcome to Bravo - and cya in a weeks time :D

But now: going out to a vorspiel with some friends - perhaps a couple or beers or five will clear up  my head and bring forth some good ideas :beer:

Whatever you want it to be Bob.  And if you want your forum name changed to Bob then that can be arranged too.

As Bastet said, I've kind of landed on -=[dMw]=-Threb, but if I should see during the lan that everbody just goes for Bob, I might just change it to that.  And than a change of forum name wouldn't be out of order either.
We'll see :biggrin:
