Tanks! er THANKS, rather...

OFFers,
I wanted to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to all those that
extended a warm welcome to Southbucks (my father in law) the
last week, as well as making allowances for my necessary split
setup (Southbucks on my xbox one so he could listen to the party
chat, and me on my 360 only vicariously listening in on the
constant banter). I think he was really understanding why i
enjoy the platooning within clan so much. In particular, I
wanted to bring special attention to Sciberius who platooned
with us for long sessions into the early hours of a few days.
His knowledge, recommendations and patience were frankly
outstanding.
While i was encouraging Southbucks to speak up more frequently
in chat, i think it will become more natural for him with
increased use/comfort. He is new to WoT, was fiquring out
controls, hating being 2 tiers down, map nuances, working hard
on tier Vs, and learning the joys of being an potential OFFer
all at once. I think he did pretty well for a 70/71 year old
codger (did i say that out loud?) only 10 days into the game.
He has a xbox one at his home in northwest GA, and will be going
to xbox live gold very soon. If any of you feel so inclined,
please add him to your friends lists. I'd greatly appreciate it,
and he will too. He'll likely end up playing as.much or more
than me, and he's a retired night owl to boot.
To recruitment officers that might read this post, he'd like to
join our ranks, and asked Oxy as such over the chat. Alas, I'm
fairly certain that he's not going to use our website/forums
just to retain membership (many of the even older generation
can't/won't be bother with these sort of things, or would be
rather lost) Would it be possible to allow him clan entry w/o
requiring him to use our website?
Again, TANKS!
Mr Fishie

I am not able to platoon a whole lot, but maybe he will be
online sometime when I am able to platoon. I will add him.

Fishie, nice to see that you and your FIL had a good time! Tell
him to take his time with his grinds - often times, you will
find hidden gems within a line that hit a cord with an
individual's play style/preference, and he will want to keep
them.

:thankyou: Thanks, I had a blast and enjoyed every minute of
it. It must really say something to the fun I had with y'all,
especially since I didn't fall asleep on yuns. :snowball:
Seriously though, what little knowledge I was able to pass on
came from tanking with this crazy bunch who had the time and
patience to teach an old jarhead new tricks.
:thankyou: :old:
