Vacillator Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Hi everyone, just registered. With excellent help from bg I hope to be flying shortly so hope to see some of you soon. Quote
delta7 Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 welcome to the pound mate - hope to see you fly with us soon Quote
Vacillator Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Thanks delta7. Don't suppose I could ask my first silly question? Quote
Blairgowrie Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Welcome m8. See you found your way in ok. Not sure why your sig is not appearing. Looks ok on your profile but maybe B16Enk can help us out. Vacillator is our newest DD from the UK. He saw a post I made about FS Autostart on UBI Zoo and asked me to send him the patch. I have always found his posts to be sensible and filled with humour Quote
JensenPark Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Welcome Vas... Always great to add to our vast collection of DD's from across the Pond. Quote
Psycho Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 GreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeZZZZZZZZZIE OOOOOOPDIE Quote
Klinger Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 ~S~ Vacillator, look forward to flying with you. Quote
Vacillator Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Thanks guys, and thanks for your comments Blairgowrie. Okay, well I'm based in Somerset, UK but originally from Newcastle (but a long time ago so hopefully my accent will not be a problem). After a lot of years of board wargames like Advanced Squad Leader and then PC East Front etc. I decided to buy CFS1 (my previous attempt at computer flying on an Atari ST with a Lucasarts 'sim' called something like Their Finest Hour having been a wash-out due to slide-show performance).

Vacillator Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Yes, depending on where I am I'm accused of sounding like Gazza (when I'm down here) or like a Southern shandy-drinker (when I'm up there). Quote
Blairgowrie Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 One of our group, who shall remain nameless, enjoys a Pimms now and then. You will soon recognize who he is. He wears a pink dress and speaks with a New Yoink accent. Quote
Tonar Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Welcome to the Pound! We don't Uthinize too many strays around here. Quote
delta7 Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 thought I recognised the name - I go under dieg777 on the zoo. dont worry about online play , Im sure you will find it refreshing after the AI - especially the chat this is excellent for tips http://web.comhem.se/%7Eu85627360/ but take your time and settle in -we are more about having fun than anything else.

Vacillator Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Thanks again BBloke et al. Yes delta7 / dieg777 there's a lot of names here I recognise after a couple of years of Ubi fun and games. Quote
1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted November 30, 2006 1. DDz Quorum Posted November 30, 2006 Welcome to the pound m8. It's like a zoo but with only one species And the rumours about Bbloke are true, it's the only reason why he's a sheep dog after all Quote
Rattler Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Welcome, M8! Looking forward to flying with you. Don't worry about Psycho. We only let him out of his cage once in awhile. Quote

Enforcer57 Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Welcome aboard comrade. I enjoy the brit accents because it's kinda like flying in the movie 'Battle of Britian' ; Painless kinda reminds me of a deranged Michal Cain. Anyhoot, these guys broke me into online combat also, and i too was totally lost and without TS the first time I flew. I knew I was in trouble when Rattler showed up and I asked whose side he was on (typing). Dubbo typed back "he's on his side". The problems you listed are the exact same thing I faced also.....dont be intimidated. Ive not looked back since. If you wanna see some of the grand adventure and insanity you can expect, check out my post on BG's UFO spitfire and the rough ride he gave me sunday. And keep in mind that the Hellhounds fly on Saturday nights (US nights), and we always welcome Dogs to the fray. Quote
