I forget the guys name, but I met one guy when he bought a monitor off me. Haven't seen him post in a long time though.

That would be me :)

Still rocking my A2000, but going back to school has put a kink in my parts acquisition as of late.

Enclave!

/me equips T51b Power Armor and gauss rifle...

Of course, these days it could be our wasteland hero rocking a nice (slightly bullet ridden) pre-used set of enclave armor :D

Too late, I already queued up two headshots in VATS. Capped at level 30 with 100 energy weapons skill, sniper perk and the gauss rifle equipped, I don't fancy your chances :lol:

yeah, that's pretty much insta-gibs :quickdraw:

^ though to be honest, the stealth armour, dart gun and shishkebab are my primary weapons. What you can't see and can't hear, you can't prepare for. Sneak criticals FTW :D

Paralyze, then burn/chop/crit them to death?!  that's...eeeevil!

I usually went for the stealth armor/gauss or alien blaster with an energy skill of 100... although I did play a game through with big guns just so I could see how much damage a fat man would do with max big guns and fully repaired.  Let's just say don't fire it indoors!

But I sure would like a wedge, and an A4000 or 3000...and a natami.... lol

Some years ago, I bought an A2000 (Mil-Spec of course) from Doomy via eBay. After about three or four months,  a couple of re-negotiations of the price and some strongly worded correspondence, I received the A2000 in working condition. Still have it to this day and most likely will never get rid of it.

One book of stamps = $3.70
Postal Money Order = $64.90
Four trips to the post office...

Doomy's A2000.... PRICELESS!

How can you tell if an A2000 is Mil-Spec?

Easy! If Doomy previously owned it then it must be Mil-Spec!

(I'm sure this also applies to any of his endorsements of German made Amigas.)

Ah!  I was thinking that was exaggeration  :lol:

p.s.  I cherish my lack of sanity.. ;-)

lol - me too.  I was thinking mainly of old Doomy.

Holy thread resurrection.

The only one I've met in person is "thebilgerat" over a few trades but he's a genuinely nice guy

Damn lies! :lol:

Runey's pretty cool too.
