Hello everyone,

A quick introduction since I have found a community that I'd like to be apart of and contribute to.

From the UK and a regular on the CS 1.6 Dust 2 server, I've been playing CS on and off for approximately 10 years since the old days of WON.

Competed in CAL, TheSGL, CSGN, etc, I have many good memories and for one reason or another, I just can't put CS 1.6 down!

Based in London, UK, I'm a friendly guy who likes a chit chat so feel free to say hello should you see me on the server. I'm usually active during the weekdays but the odd weekend too.

Outside of CS, I regularly play Football about 4 days a week. I support Arsenal (Come On You Gunners!) and yes I know we aren't having a great time at the moment but hey ho

Anyhow not much else to say at that end but I will be around various forum areas so I will see you all around.

Ciao!

Hello there
At Least at a some point we are going to have more people in the british ethnic group, just like before.

Just one simple question if you don't feel pressure that you can answer.
What does WAN mean as in terms of cs. A older cousin of mine in the old days went to that event(if it's an event) but I never had the chance to ask him about it. Also don't ask me about nicknames because I don't think he will remember.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome

@*PL*

Before the days of Steam, Half-Life/Counter-Strike was using WAN servers and just like we have Steam ID's, there were WAN ID's (only consisted of a string of numbers for example 78236917).

When Steam took over from Valve, everyone's WON ID's was transferred over to Steam ID's. Those that had shorter WON ID's also had shorter Steam ID's. Made them more 'old school' if you like

In my first post I was reaching out to anyone that may have played from a long time ago that may of recognised it. But this is back when CS was on 0.7BETA etc. That's when I had my first game.

Hope that clears it up.

Interesting. The first Mp game I had was 2001, Lan to be exact.
However I did had the game in 1999 from the pirate boys

Thanks for the information presto. It won't go in vain.

Which game was that?

I think the first multiplayer game I every played was Warzone2100. Used a client called MPlayer but then it was taken over by GameSpy and died. Then I got in to CS.

Anytime my friend

Morning all,

Many thanks again for the warm welcome and nice to see a fellow gooner here

I did have a go at the Jailbreak server but wasn't quite sure what to do! Need to read up on the rules in the forums I think and I'll have another go.
