No worries. I guess that now you're going to explain that you are on this forum due to a long stint serving on subs and that you therefore have a wealth on knowledge that can make us gamers feel that we actually know what's going on and I'm going to feel very small indeed!  |
Mister Herr Doctor Professor Channing is right. I've never been on a sub (except as a visitor. I spent less than two years in the navy, several months of it on a destroyer; and that was a long time ago (1970). I fell in love with naval wargaming back in 1985, and I've been working on my own tabletop miniatures WW1 game ever since. In that light I've read more history books and technical stuff than I can begin to describe (well, actually I could, but nobody wants to waste that kind of time); so I at least know where to look a lot of stuff up.
I'm on the forum because back in 2002 I had SH2 and it wouldn't work, so I came, I saw and I stuck around. I love SH3, want to play SH4 but I'm on the outs and my computer's in storage. Otherwise, just another gamer.
I always bow to someone who's been there, especially on a sub. Also, I've been known to be wrong on more than a few occassions.
And yes, I do tend to be a little critical where spelling and grammar are concerned, especially if the person is American or British, and should know better.
