Hello Project Awesome members...

This is a small enough group that I figured an introduction would be appropriate. I'm an early 20's male from the US, originally California. I am in the service and enjoy video games, food, and working out, probably in that order.

I've been browsing some of the subreddits of these little communities, and would really like to get into the military simulation community. It's a lot more mature than the others, and the organization is great.

I am currently at work on shift waiting for something to crash, but tonight I would like to join my first "vanilla" or "normal" Arma II war game. Though it seems somewhat complicated, I've experimented with the updater before and ran into significant problems. But I will try it again.

If anyone wants to link up, please message me contact info, also I will log on to the Teamspeak server.

Hah, the world of Reddit, and the empowering feel of downvoting. It's o.k., I received a lot of messages / assistance from really helpful people!

Hey man, your best bet is to either hop on Teamspeak and ask around, or hop on our IRC Channel and ask there. The guys that are usually around are really helpful, I'm sure someone will be able to help you get setup.

As for Vanilla ARMA, there was/is a meetup today with the FOLK group and they play Vanilla ARMA, so you should see if that's still going on.

Originally I was having trouble linking ACRE to the TS client, but I think it's mostly working now. It's actually a really cool plugin once you get it completely functional. Now I'm just trying to find populated servers to play with other people.
