    So, we have a pretty good group of regulars who joke and have fun playing BF3, so I thought I'd make the token "Who are you?" thread for a forum.

    I'm a 30-year-old SAP Consultant (spent two years in warehouse operations before this position) originally from northeastern Ohio who graduated from the University of Cincinnati and moved to Georgia for this company... but now I technically work out of Dallas where I've been flying every week for the past 3 months. The travel's been fun, I've met a lot of cool people (and damn fine women) and look forward to a free vacation once I get the time and frequent flyer miles. :P During my free time I enjoy weight lifting (f running), gaming and beer. On a personal note, I am single and dont have any kids that I know about... But am in hot pursuit of getting my ex-girlfriend back.

    I've been gaming since I was a kid on my Atari then NES then SNES and Genesis. I got into FPS games back in the original Rainbow 6 for computers about 12 years ago, but my favorite was the original Ghost Recon where I played on a team called =S&D= before the whole MLG thing... we were somewhere around 135-15 in competitive play and everyone hated playing us. I played for a Cal-Pro team in BF2 as a commander and chopper guy, but they were a bunch of asses so I joined the bf2combat.net community and played with the guys over there (it's a pretty fun set up and great community - not sure if it's still alive).

    Clearly, I'm not on the right or left in this picture. :P

    I'm 23, I live in the port town Helsingborg, Sweden. I plan on studying at Stockholm university later this year, and hopefully move there permanently in the future. Originally I was born in Stockholm but I only lived there for about a year before my family moved, I've always felt at home when I'm there.

    Right now I'm just looking for a job, trying to figure out what to do with my life. Been playing games for as long as I can remember, I think "Micro man" was the first game I ever played.:D Always been a fan of the Battlefield series. Other than that I try to hang out as much as I can with friends/girlfriend/family.

    And that was my boring presentation!

    26 year old resident of Wisconsin, USA. Brewers Fan/Packers Nut.

    Degree in computer science; did the whole "office job" thing for a couple of years and hated it. Quit last year and found a job as a traveling salesman. Now I love (most parts of) my job.

    First true multiplayer game was Tribes where I joined my first and only clan (Orb). Been gaming with them ever since. Tribes, DoD, BF2, WoW, TF2, BF3 were my biggest online games, but I play a lot of single player games.

    No current pictures, either, so here's a shot from me being ready to go to work. You don't want to see me being ready to start gaming.

    Wow. Great thread. I love these!! Thanks Blue!

    Ok SO!!!

    [​IMG]
    I squint in every photo. Meh

    Real name is Taylor, I'm 28 and I live in Wallingford Connecticut, a super quaint, quiet, real all american type town. There's a great bar scene here and a lot of really good brew pubs. I work as a Systems Architect for Goodrich Corpration, working primarily in the area of SharePoint. I've been there since I was about 20. Good stuff.

    I'm a huge audiophile and run a beastly Energy Take Classic 5.1 / Onkyo sound system that will blow your mind. I'm a music junky all around so, it's pretty much part of my life. Having a top notch rig to listen to it on is very important to me. I'm also an avid guitar player and recorder, I have 7 guitars and work primarily in Guitar Rig and Reason.

    I drive an Audi S5 which is actually my second love. My first love is the lady you see in the pic above. That's my gal. We're got married on July 14 2012 and it was probably one of the greatest days in my life. <3 :inlove:

    Other hobbies include beer making, beer drinking (seriously, I try to find as many obscure and extreme beers as I can). Last weekend I had an Oyster beer!
    Love traveling. Eating lol. Also, a big movie buff. Love Japanese culture, from the music to the life style.

    Absolute first PC game that I bought with my own cash was Half Life. That game started it all for me. From there to TFC, then CS, DOD, HL2, CS Source. With all the Battlefield games intermixed in there. Now I'm here, playing BF3. Surrounded by you guys. Running No Nonsense Gamers!

    Thanks for coming :D

    Lol love this idea.

    Im a 23 year old, retired US Marine (infantry). I live in Rochester, NY Currently employed at a remodeling company doing billing and advertising. Waiting for my name to be called into the police department.

    Gaming is one of my many expensive hobbies. Others include, tactical shooting (fairly large collection or rifles), ridding my motorcycle (Suzuki GSXR600) and skying.

    I am married (May of this year), I have 2 dogs (real dogs none of that frufru shit) Hurley and Linus are their names and if you ever play with me while in voice comms you'll hear them playing with one another in the background. My wife is a goof and shell make fun of me once in a while as I am playing, calling me a nerd or giving me a hard time when I get pissed by being killed so I am sure you'll hear that as well.

    Im an open book fellas, ask and you'll get an answer, even if its the answer you didn't want! My favorite games of the past are Novalogic's: Black Hawk Down, BF2, CSS, BFBC1&2 and of course the first MW.

    http://www.facebook.com/jimmmontgomery <<let me know if you cant go through my pics

    EDIT The dude on the left of my wife is my brother. (the profile pic) who was my best man, My brother and I are very close, I dont know why I feel like I need to explain that but oh well.

    Hermmmm...sorry for all of the pictures, but who cares. :mad:

    So! I'm 18, live in Houston, and working on my computer science degree at the moment. I just finished my first semester two days ago and I have a month off before I return (B2K just came out and a month off, can you believe it?). I love to play competitively and am always down for a challenge. As a previous CoD junkie on the Xbox, I take pride in my KD!

    I've been on computers since 11 and the first computer I ever used was an old toshiba laptop!

    My first REAL game I ever played was CS 1.6 on an old HP laptop and it was truly brutal because I didn't have a mouse! Yes...yes..I played 1.6 with a touchpad.

    I don't know what it is with me and laptops, but now I game on my brand new Asus G74 that I got for gaming AND school.:)[​IMG]

    I would add some pictures of myself, but my sister has my old Gateway setup due to my new laptop!
