Never formally introduced myself

Post by Carbon »

Hey all.

Well, I never played in any clans, I just kicked around on some Korean servers and had my butt handed to me on a flak shell...always. I guess I never had the mad skillz. Anyhow, Carbon is my pseudonym now, an long-term expat living in Korea. Came here in '96 to a small town and lived a pretty isolated life for a few years and that is when I discovered Unreal and UT. These games really helped to fill the time and help me to 'escape' sometimes.

As I said, I was never any good, but if I were to have won anything, it would have been a sportsmanship prize. I appreciated the skills of others and loved watching matches, though I never did put into practice the things I was seeing. As time went by, I realized that it was the spirit of these games, the community and enthusiasm I loved, something that still resonates with me today. I have been hanging out in the wings of this site and many others dedicated to Unreal and UT99, but never felt I had anything to contribute. Once again, I sat back and admired all of you guys.

Anyhow, I am here now, still with nothing substantial to contribute, except enthusiasm and a love for these games. Good to be here and thanks to all of you for being here, sharing your work, passion and time with freeloaders like me. I have been digging around some of the game vendors in the dark recesses of Seoul these days and have made some cool finds (which I posted about in another thread) and I will continue my treasure hunting. If I find some gold, I will certainly let you folks know!

I'll vouch for carbon, any day and any time. He's been very gracious to me on a personal level and I'm indebted to his kindness. This is the type of person that UT99 is the better for having joined.

When I'm better carbon I'll script you something fantastic my friend.
So long, and thanks for all the fish

Welcome aboard, Carbon. Please keep all your limbs inside the vehicle at all times (unless you want a Skaarj to gnaw yer arm off for a free lunch :D)

The way it bobs its head lefty-righty? It's just cracking it's neck so it can get a better grip on you with its jaws.

We need more like yourself to come back into UT99 land with us.
Winning the game is merely icing on the cake.
Now just PLAYING UT99, especially Online, is the real rewarding gem and is what really keeps UT99 going on and in good health!
If you don't PLAY UT, it will wither.
WELCOME Carbon! :tu:
