    My apologies

    To all the members of Gabe's squad, I apologize for the m203 grenade incident this evening. I was prone and forgot to clear the tube from the edge of the wall. My bad and it won't happen again.

    Aouch, sounds nasty! But I wouldn't beat yourself up mate, we have all been there, I have TK'd and been TK'd, it happens to us all! Best thing you can do is apologise and play on.....unless its no respawn, then its a real bitch, but it happens! Friendly fire.....isn't!

    Its all good Sarge!
    Just ask jeepo, as he is the resident friendly fire magnet!

    But really, if you haven't tked someone in a game, you haven't played it enough. Everyone accidentally TKs at some point. And the fact that you worry about doing it again will make you a better player.



    Stoop and you'll be stepped on; stand tall and you'll be shot at.

    Re: My apologies

    Aww, Sarge, please dont feel bad at all! Seriously. If I sounded morose on coms, it was really just me reporting the situation to our commander. I actually chuckled a little when it happened.

    Yah, it sucks, but it happens. I was certainly OK with it, and will always be happy to have you on my fireteam. You're a good team player, bud.

    Re: My apologies

    Thanks Gabe, I appreciate your reply. I always look for you to be a squad leader to join your group. I am new to Arma, and until I am comfortable with the movements, I am looking towards you and other veteran players to show me the ropes. And from what I have experienced so far, I am among the best of online tactitions.

    As far as last night goes, I was on the balcony with our squad, when the bmp showed up I fired my last 136 round at it to disable it, and swithched to the 203 launcher to hit it a few times so as to get the crew to disembark and our squad could eliminate them. I was still in a crouched position and wasn't aware the 203 tube wasn't clear of the balcony wall. Well, I felt so stupid for that action and that I let our squad down. Will try to get back on tonight or tomorrow and jump right back in to all the fun.

    Re: My apologies

    So you're the bastard that threw that grenade! You even killed two in my fireteam (alpha) - including me!

    Just kidding Sarge - FF incidents happen. I think we all know you're a team player, so no need to apologize - though it's appreciated. Good to know you aren't one of those guys who says "I don't know, that enemy grenade just flew out of nowhere!"

    Re: My apologies

    Thanks for the kind words, Sarge, but I can't help but think maybe you confused me with Grunt, no? I'm not a veteran player; I've only been playing ArmA for a few weeks now, and last night was my second time leading a fire team, ever. That said, I'm very much a team player, and I'm enjoying the learning experiences that come along with leading a fireteam. Each time feels more natural, so I'll continue to step up and lead a fireteam when needed.

    Re: My apologies

    Hey Sarge, if you need help resizing your forum sig., let me know. It was a good sig, just a little to big. Will only take a sec. to shrink it a bit.

    Re: My apologies

    Sarge, you dont have to apologize to me. More like I need to apologize to you, Gabe, Grunt, Beta, BDog, and really everybody else on the #2 server the last 10 days or so. Between being an ARMA-noob, my old PC dying, trying to build a new PC that doesnt give me issues in ARMA, all while working and dealing with my daughter and my girlfriend... it seems that everytime I'm in-game my PC's messing up or somebody calls me or needs my attention in real life.

    So while you were having your bad moment I was 1000m to the rear, trying to switch from Gabe's to Beta's squad (for some reason I could see everybody on the server on the status screen except Beta), or more likely gone when the g/f drops by and that ends my PC time without warning and I just bail without a word.

    I sincerely apologize guys.
