Default A little history,a lot of praise.

I recall playing SH3 on an old computer that was so slow that when I looked forward on the surface, the bow spray would lock up the screen. Later, with better PC enjoyed the game very much. Then we moved from boonies to urban local and found this new craze, the internet! First search on u boats and related topics revealed site called SUBSIM Radio Room Forums. I couldn't believe it. Read for days and many game play problems I had were answered by people like Jimbuna , Sailor Steve,and many other wise captains. I soon began to read about The Grey Wolves. At first I thought it was a new game, and I wanted to buy it. But no, it was a free download! To a computer dumb old guy this seemed out of reach. Chimps with learning problems have better PC skills. But with help from smart ass son, I was soon enjoying a whole new level of this great game. Now much braver, I downloaded a few skins from Jimbuna's File Front page. Thanks to great JSGME tool, [ God bless you sir!] I amazed myself! Now have Fubar's great typeIXC weathered and many other amazing mods. Thank you so much. I cannot say enough about the great modders who have made my favorite time waster so much more enjoyable and realistic. A tip of the old salt stained, weathered cap to all of you!

The main reason I consider Subsim my second home is the passion for the genre we share, both for the history and for the game. You'll find more help here than in all the other websites combined.

So now you've turned to stalking? Are you accusing me of having more than one account, which is a banning offense?

Are you accusing me for expressing my opinion ?

I'm not accusing you of anything, but you seem to be fixated on following me around and causing trouble.

And no, we don't have a double standard. If I was caught doing that, or breaking any of the other rules here, I would be punished just as quickly as anyone else.

Wonder how many would believe this fairy tale of equal justice

You'll likely never know one way or the other, because I do my best to not cause trouble for people. You, on the other hand, seem to thrive on making trouble, which is why you get yourself into it so often.

The guy made a statement. I replied, praising Subsim in the process. You want to claim I'm lying, fine. You want to claim we have a double-standard, fine. I'm trying to help. You seem to be trying to hurt. I think the difference between us is obvious.

As you say, you are entitled to your opinion. You are not, however, entitled to follow people around for no good reason, trying to tear them down.

What does that even mean?

God, Steve, what did you do? Run over this kid's mailbox or something?

u_crank, thanks for the kind words. Don't be put off by PapaKilo's obsession with Steve.
