someone is using his account, haha

vVolf · 12-15-2002, 02:25 AM

No, someone else made an account with my name, but they edited the vV. When i find this n00b i will personally hunt him down... And, yes, the mods will detect his IP and probably ban him.

And, v\/olf, i get the forum pics from [url=http://users.pandora.be/bauknecht/Forumshit:03e6a]here[/url:03e6a].

ddub, thank you for posting this, and to all youz older guys for adding to the thread. I'm 47, married and have a little girl who is 7. I have often wondered the ages of those who I play against. I have even asked for ages during games. (I think I feel kinda embarrased, cuz I'm so old and "playing" games.) When ppl actually do respond, it averages somewhere around 25 I think. I sometimes feel odd playing an online game as much as I do (Hell, I can play MOHAA/SH all day sometimes. It's addictive!)

I love playing MOHAA and SH, because I grew up with the stories and movies that were all about the 'Good War' (WW2). Damn, there's just something about it, ya know? I watch the History Channal all the freakin' time if there's anything about WW2. I think it (WW2) perfectly embodies the fight and struggle of good against evil, and the ultimate judgement that comes in the aftermath. (Obviously, the German ppl weren't evil, just thier leadership.)

I think now I'm at the point where I'd like to start using voice in Team games. Not sure if Roger Wilco is the best or if Team Speck (if that's the name of it. ) is the best. I think it would be great to be able to talk to a team mate and say things like, "There's a sniper in the Church tower, I'm on it", and then go and do it, all without having to type. That kinda kills it.

Sorry for this long thread, but it felt good to get this off my chest.

It really adds to the game Steve. Check this thread: http://www.alliedassault.com/phpBB2/vie ... p?t=151182

vVolf · 12-15-2002, 09:37 AM

O yeah. Especially if you're with a clan.

rudedog · 12-15-2002, 09:58 AM

Team speak or any other voice over net software enhances any game. As long as you have a bunch of good friends ( could be a clan) playing on the same server.

Colonel · 12-15-2002, 10:04 AM

Hey ddub,
OTD uses Teamspeak. BusterKings's link will lead you to all the info you need. I look forward to talking to you.

vVolf · 12-15-2002, 10:07 AM

Hey rude dawg, can you see this?

Hey, Ex, glad you like the thread. I'm really surprised at all the feedback from it. Most of it good. Well, I'm 50 and my kids are grown and gone. Like you, I could play MOH all day, but when I do, I get really wired. My wife doesnt appreciate it when I play for long periods. Yea, I agree that WW2 was the ultimate struggle for good against evil. Too bad we didnt kill Stalin, though, he was as bad as Hitler. And the current struggle against the evil terrorists may be turn out to be the ultimate. We will win!

Jasper · 12-15-2002, 10:12 AM

Exorcist, I have provided a TeamSpeak2 server for several months now to general AA.com members free of charge (see sticky up top). Maybe theres been some confusion but its not a clan server...more of a general MOH server open to anybody.

That reminds me...gotta make a post about TS. S'cuse me...

Nope, can anyone else see his picture?

vVolf · 12-15-2002, 11:19 AM

I can. What the hell is going on?

henry707 · 12-15-2002, 11:28 AM

Ddub - sorry - I got mixed up with my responses (age, wrong pills etc oOo: )

I'm just a bit sick of people like vwolf & his unhelpful comments.

Peace dude cool:

Hey Exorcist, 47 in in our range. Why not join OTD and become a member of the Older Than Dirt team. There's about 14 of us now and we're getting bigger all the time. Our requirement is that you be over the age of 40, and play with honor. If your interested pm the Colonel on this same thread. Hope to see you soon. GR biggrin:
