Now I need to know who the hell is Balz?

Now srsly, who he is? Everyone talks about him but I don't see any person named as him?

Who is Balz? Who is Balz?
How can anyone be ignorant of my stellar position as the greatesI Kaleun that ever lived?

How could any one be unaware of my masterful exploits against the relenless enemy of the Reich? My super cunning, splendid marksmanchip and my incredible tolerance of Bernard?

I ask you? How anyone lack awarness of my heroic deeds, my superb musical talents and the fantastic sound of my choir when they sing and twirl performing the hoochie woochie. I am the epitomy of what a Kriegsmarine officer should be. Simply a stellar example of the Teutonic Hero.

Lt. Kalb Writes:
Now, that I am in U-boat commanders school, it is a great relief to have nearly a thousand kilometers away from Balz. Phewwwww.

Brag writes:
Kaleuns! This is an opportunity to express your true feelings about Balz and enlighten our Kameraden who are new to Balz and Hoochie Woochie .

Let's hear your comments!

From 'Webster's unabridged'

BALZ, n, Swashbuckling, imaginative, egotistical, fictious hero of Silent Hunter 3 game. Conceived in the mind of adventurer-turned-writer. Dimunitive in stature, this eccentric U-boot kaleun-wanna-be (Balz not Brag) takes pleasure in torturing individuals with unrealistic and inappropriate demands on their time [his writings are long and arduous], eyes [he always goes around wearing 'tea cozies'], and eardrums [see definition for hoochie woochie]. Many believe him to be insane.

Well since you asked . . . I know I'm in the minority here but I really think Balz needs to stop treating this forum as if it were his personal blog. Ever hear of Livejournal or MySpace? Perhaps Subsim could benefit from an "after action reports" forum where Kaluen's like Balz can exercise their literary skills to their hearts content.

It doesn't bother me, but I have no doubt that posts like that would be moved elsewhere if done by someone else.

All forums have double standards though. Nothing new here.



Oh, and please visit my web page and give me money.

Really? Who else would you have in mind? Brag's stuff is funny and hurts no-one. Double standards? Everybody seems to get some slack, until they cross some line, usually concerning decency. Even your thinly-veiled accusations aren't being moved.

Oh, and I agree: his constant plugging for his book is annoying.

Totally sour grapes on my part - and nothing that I'm really bent out of shape about but...

I posted something here once and asked that it not be moved because I only read the SH3 forums here at subsim. It wasn't SH3 related but was sub related. It wasn't spam and my only reason for posting was I thought some here might find it funny.

In the post I asked for it not to be moved, hoping that that would show that I understood that off topic posts are generally moved but that I was asking for a one time exception.

Of course it was moved right away.

It was pretty much the same thing as Balz. Just something about subs that I created hoping people would get a laugh from at the only forum at subsim I read.
There have been 4 Balz threads started in past couple of days - none of them have been moved. My single thread was moved even after I asked it not be.

That's a double standard, Steve. I realize I'm a relative nobody here but it's never fun to have that pointed out to you.



But regardless, Subsim is about the friendliest places I have ever come across on the net and I do sincerely apologize for being less than that.

Balz does to allied shipping what John Wilkes Booth did for American politics.

I'm sorry to hear that. What was it about? If it was totally off topic, as in something for General Topics, it probably just got moved to the appropriate place. I can't think of anywhere else that would be appropriate for Balz (except maybe the funny farm).

Contrary to percieved positions, I'm actually a nobody here too. I just have a big mouth.

So if it doesn't bother you why articulate it?

Its a frickin' website forum about a computer game based 60 years in the past.
