My introduction.

CjStaal · 07-27-15, 12:14 AM

Hello all!
My name is Charles Staal, you may call me Cj for short. I have recently purchased Silent Hunter 3 and I enjoy it immensely, which has caused me to seek out a community to be a part of, in which I've joined this one. I am a developer. I code in mainly Java, but I have been learning C and C++ as well. I have Aspergers Syndrome, which causes me to be annoying sometimes, but since I've been living with it all my life, and I am now 25, I have developed a good amount of social skills. I look forward to being part of this community/family. If any modding groups needs a new member I would be ecstatic to join. I am still going through College to earn my B.S. in Computer Science and Software Engineering with a minor in Mathematics. I got in to submarine simulators when I was young. It started out with Silent Steel on Windows 95. I was introduced to the Silent Hunter series when I was very young, at my friends house down the street. His father would play Silent Hunter 2. He would allow me to play it when I would come over, although I had no idea what I was doing. Those neighbors moved a long time ago. Every year or two I would try to remember the name of the submarine simulator I would play at their house but I could never remember. A week ago I decided to google search a list of submarine simulators and watch videos on each one to try to jog my memory. When I watched the gameplay of Silent Hunter 2 I realized that was the one I would play. Doing some research I found out that Silent Hunter 3 was better though, and was considered the best submarine simulator made. So, I purchased Silent Hunter 3 and now here I am. I think that is all that I will write for now, but if anyone has any questions, or would like to make a friend, just post here or P.M. me. I am very approachable and will respond.

Thanks everyone for allowing me to be a part of this family/community!

A very warm welcome, Cj. All of us struggle from time to time to make ourselves understood or grasp what others mean when they say things. You'll find only patient friends here.
