Claiming a love affair with the Warhawk is like bragging about lusting after Christina Hendricks - probably true, but not all that unique

Now those of us who loved the Summoner had a little something more to think we stood out for... And I seem to remember that EvB had a disturbing fondness for the Hellbringer. That was just plain nuts.

All this and more.

They may have had their drawbacks - I got into more than one disagreement with people who just wanted to sit in the base all day... but the depth they provided was something that no other BattleTech game has ever managed to match, and I honestly doubt MWO will either. I sorely miss the days of having to talk someone into driving that Blackjack because it was all we had and we had to make it work somehow rather than just 'mechlabbing it into yet another twinked-out munchmech. When strategy actually mattered, long-range harrassers were a serious threat to anything out there, and the map was big enough to make scouting matter.

<sigh> I feel old.

I liked people who sat on base. They sat in partial cover. BTMUX was the original internet "PWNED! HEADSHOT!" game.

With all due respect, Bonewalker, that was what... 15 years ago? The people you are referring to back then were mostly kids. Most everyone at this time is 30+ years old, so.. again.. with all due respect, it's not like we are all sitting (or even were) around in a room going, "oh ****.. let's get a dang girl in here... daddy needs some tail to chase".

Seriously, you are giving yourself way way too much credit here. Go enjoy your game, we will too, but try not to degrade the thread by some sort of post that makes it sound like the good folks that have taken the time to post care if some woman they never met, frankly don't remember, and probably will never hear from again, is concerned she might get a raving group of men harassing her in game if she cared to talk to them.

We are all about the game and hanging out with folks we met from a long time ago...not lying in wait for some internet 'goddess' to stop in and grace us with her presence.

Harsh? Yea, but I took your post to be that way and I am an old crotchety guy that simply thinks you should get over yourself and game on.

LIES! There are no womenz on the internetz! I don't believe it!

I surely hope not. If you're going to get drunk, go watch TV. We're old and crochety, not drunk and obnoxious.

Yes I remember! I was played Varxsis and 3030. It cost me a grade or two back in the day.

Afternoon everyone. I figured that there'd be a MU* thread around here somewhere. Just took me a while to find it. I havent been in a MU* for about four years now but the times in 3030 were some of the best gaming I've ever had. To date I dont think I ever got a kill in RS.

Feel free to get in touch with me if you need a crack(head) recon. Just dont expect me to fix your mech. ;-)
