Goodbye?
Well, it's been a long time since I first started playing PR, and it's been about a year since I started playing on TG servers... It's been a good run, from the hectic days of v0.5 muttrah littlebird flippings, to the current day boring 4 hour rounds of Kashan. But I'm going to have to set things down for at least a long while.
I'm going off to Orlando tomorrow, for college, and it will be at least a month before having a new computer (supplied by the college). Even then, it will be a laptop. And, it will be a Mac. So, for a month and likely some time after, I will be completely unable to play BF2.
And then, I'm going to a private, accelerated course, college. So I'll extremely busy. Luckily, it's in the Web Design field, which I have a sponge-like tendency to absorb information from, so it might not be as bad as I think. But even if I am able to absorb all that, it's still going to be hectic and hard to cope with for a bit.
However, I am bringing my BF2 DVD disc with me, and I have done a little bit of googling to figure out that it is possible to run BF2 through Mac OSX, and if I eventually get my hands on a copy of Windows XP, or perhaps even maybe able to use the Windows 7 Release Candidate, to put on a partition of the harddrive and play BF2 through a native Windows setup. I'm not quite sure how well a Macbook Pro will handle playing BF2, and I'm not sure which size I am getting (13" gets a GPU attached to the motherboard, whereas the 15"/17" gets a discrete GPU that would be a lot more likely to handle PR).
So I hope to eventually be able play every now and then, when I have free time, and if my Macbook can handle PR. But for now, goodbye, because it'll be quite a while before I can even think about playing, and I won't be able to play nearly as frequently as I used to. If all else fails, I'll see you guys during breaks.
Until then, goodbye, and have fun.

Re: Goodbye?
college? I thought you were in your mid 20's. Don't worry PR will be here when you are on vacation, and if i can give you any advice, DO NOT GRADUATE. Also check out Rollins College (the girls are hot, the move wild things was filmed there), and also send me a PM a very good friend of mine is a chef at epcot and I can hook you up with possibly some free food, etc.

Enjoy college!
Just for the record, I'm currently playing PR on my laptop and it runs fine... It's not a Mac, it's a Dell, and it's 17', but I bet ya can try and work something over. The only problem I have, of course, is the damn thing overheating and closing the program, but nothing a small bag of ice near the cooler won't do
Good luck mate, hope to see ya around!|TG-69th|Kevlar

Re: Goodbye?
Yeah, just got to have a machine that can game.
Yeah. Web Design started as a hobby when my brother started getting interested in it; my father and my brother are and were very computer fluent and it passed on to me.
No, just sound and look like it (been 6'2" since I was about 12, 6"4' now). And your buddy is a chef at epcot? That's pretty cool, do you know what place he works at? (they've got a lot of different places and foods at epcot)
As for not graduating, I'm going to Full Sail Univ, a college that teaches actual things I need to learn as opposed to just giving me the run around, so I'll enjoy my time there and actually get something done while I'm there.
