Can I finally call you a BFV veteran now? :D

Or does that only happen when you reach top 10? :|



Well done either way and thank you for putting in so much time on the server!

My pleasure. It has been challenging but with the help of you and many players, I finally made it. I hope to move up another spot or two. We'll see. I could not have done it but for the many players who gave me this opportunity. Thank you all.

It's really not about stats, a veteran is not a veteran because he or she has amassed a number of kills. Is veterans day for only a select few that have reached a kill plateau? No!

The term "veteran" means a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released therefrom under conditions other than dishonorable.

If I was to equate BFV I Would say it's the term and time you have been on the server with honorable intentions and mannerisms. Anyone can kill a lot and be a troll, a jerk complaining about everything and insulting everyone over petty stuff constantly. No respect for others, getting mad easily. That's the type of behavior that is easy to replicate and has no constraint. Anyone can be a child here.

A Veteran learns key tactics, adapts, and elevates his or her's game over time, and drives people around them to do better. Do you have many of those qualities now that you didn't have before? I have seen a ton of players with the same issues from 10-15 years ago and still never matured, Still crying over the same stuff with no growth. Arguing every death over lag, cheats, glitches, broken mice / keyboard, whining about which map, and being lucky. That's not a BFV Veteran in my book. Your game has elevated over time to be a veteran in my book! ;)

We also have a ton of players that are BFV Hello Veterans that may not make the statistical pages top 20. However, these are the players we hope to see every day on the server. Salute to all BFV Veterans! ✌️

I would venture a guess that the vast majority of my "score" is amassed via my flag-taking. Typically on Hastings with a stolen slick. As witnessed in the match today.
