Personell Files: Keep or throw away?

Warmonger · 11-07-06, 11:30 AM

I keep 'em. I even name my commanders alphabetically by the first name so they are in the right order when I look at them in the folder.

SS, you mean packrat. :rotfl:

Save them and compare your new careers to the old ones. Then you can see how sloppy you get on the hunt.

Surprised by how many of you hold on to your files. Guess I should, too.

You know, I never thought about it, before. I can't really think of a reason to delete the files, really.

I keep mine for posterity (or sometimes to remind me how stupid I was at the time in taking that risk) :hmm:

I only keep the files of careers that I actually play out. If it's two patrols or 3/4 of the way up the Kiel canal and then I delete everything and reinstall I don't even bother saving my career file. But the good ones I keep. I still have my first patrol's crew files and commander's papers and such. It's from some old old version of SH3 Commander, back when they were saved as notepad files.

I print them out and show them to women at the bar.

I go home alone.
