Hi all as you know a few weeks ago my wife was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer. Well yesterday she went into hospital and they carried out a 4 hour surgery to remove part of her lower bowel and intestine that contained the tumour. The surgeon told me it was a lot larger than they expected 15cm across (the size of a large grapefruit). Well they got it all and there were no signs of it spreading. As a precaution they took a few biopsies further up the bowel and intestine to be sent off for testing. Although my wife is in a lot of pain and requires a lot of healing we are all over the moon and she looks better already.

Finally met @sstriker and @Monkey back in April. Forgot to put some pics up. It was a brilliant evening and we had a lot of fun! Maybe a bit to much beer and rum but who cares. It's nice to put a face to a name! Wishing you idiots all the best!!

Liked Budman's idea so came up with this lol in game

XtremeIdiots would like to wish all members celebrating their birthday today a happy birthday. LtLaszlo (65)

It is with a very heavy heart to say, that early this morning, my wife and I lost our boy Baxter, he would have been 13 in September. His health took a turn last night and was up with him 2-3am this morning but sadly did not make it through the night. He was a rescue, so we'll cherish the times and years he was with us and in knowing that he had good home and a loving family. He is and will be deeply missed, he was quite the character. Rest in Peace buddy.

@BigPapaDean I was gone for 10 years and was welcomed back with open arms by these idiots. My gameplay is horrendous but I have a ton of fun. Join a server and keep me company. It’s not lonely at the bottom after every round.

As far as being shy, just join and play. Mic or not, you will enjoy the commentary during your game play. XI has a has a wide range of personalities from around the world. Lasting members and a literal melting pot of the gaming community. Join, shoot, have fun and communicate at your preferred method. Edit: You have better more stats and have been around way longer than me, yes sir, no sir , !fu and a big middle thumbs up to ya! Welcome back!

We just named our animals we planned to eat "Dinner", it bothered our Mom the first time but she figured out she wanted to call it something at feeding time and by calling the Steer each year Dinner kept her from getting to attached and more grounded in the reality of the money the family spent to but it, feed it and keep it healthy and well as the grain we gave it at the end to marble it up. It all worked out and in the mid 70's with 3 teenage boys it was the most bang for our food budget plus we knew the quality of the meat and that it was grass fed and well taken care of and treated in the most humane way possible. Advantage of having 45 acres of grassy ranch land in the foothills of Northern California in the mid 70's. Plus we had horses and even raised a Pig and the property next to my parents Ranch was 5000 acres of BLM land so the deer were also plentiful and in our freezer. Calif had a nuisance law that allowed farmers and ranchers with fenced property to kill deer that got in to their vegetable garden so ours was growing 10 months a year. This gave my Dad the right to remove them and harvest them. Any way to save money and keep us from going hungry. I can relate to your comment about CHANGE. It is the only constant thing in life and something that is hard to fight. When we stop learning is when our brains start to die and then our body follows. Nice read and you are always welcome to play on the COD2 TDM servers. We play every weekend from about 9am your time until 1pm Saturday and Sunday and it is the same group with many long time >XI< members. We always love meeting newer members to the Original >XI< servers where it all started and killing them lol. Look forward to seeing you sometime soon. If you dont have the game I have a few copies of the game you can load using a disk drive including a good key code I could send you from free since I now use Steam, but the game is fairly cheap there as well. just using the version 1.3 so you have to update it after you download. DM me if you are interested

Hey guys just want to say that I’ve finished a goal of mine of getting a degree, even though its just an associates, its still the first in my family so its something I am proud of. I also landed a job in hopefully my career as a Jailer which I hope to eventually move up to be a deputy for the sheriff’s department.

Let start with your clan name? >XI<Intruder - I used to play ww2 combat flight sims is where that name was born. Do you have any nicknames? Personal or in game?

Old guy, 1972 In Middletown Ohio When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I never figured it out and still working on that answer. Where have you lived? I have lived in Ohio my entire life, not much of a traveler but i now reside in New Madision, Ohio only about 30 minutes from where i grew up. Worldly i know. What got you into gaming? Been a gamer since i was young but the people and the adventures kept me logging back in. Your first game you played?

XI servers always had me looking forward to that free time on Sundays. Why did you join XI? I officially joined recently in late 2022 maybe ? im not sure i have been part of this group so long im not sure when i actually joined. What do you get from being in this clan? I have made some good friends with alot of XI members and we continue to stay in touch when possible. What is your favorite hobby? modding has always been the root hobby i always come back to. I have alot going on with a small hobby farm but i am always thinking of modding servers or games. What is your favorite travel destination?

The season is starting and I was feeling a little down. You see, Magfed paintball is much different than "normal" paintball.without getting into too many details,the paintballs or FSR's (First strike rounds )go twice as far and are twice as accurate than a roundball but both go into a mag like a normal rifle and feed into the marker from below from a clip. Usually 18 to 20 rounds a clip. These markers are used in MILSIM (Military simulation)games or MFOG (mag fed only games) and some, like mine, are a 1:1 ratio to an AR15 or a M4A1 if on full auto....So....with that being said I was losing faith that it was losing ground, no fields around me are allowing FSR's ...anymore, after the speedballers complained. They said it was unfair....lol. Not gonna go into it. I go to a couple scenario games a year that allow FSR"s and maybe have 5 to 7 private games a year and only a few private ones are MFOG.I got the word through I guy I paintball with sometimes (Sidewinder) that a Magfed team "Cayote Force" out of Indiana was hosting a MFOG event and allowed us to bring our own paint, including FSR's or buy First strikes there. They also had great field paint for magfed, Valkyn Graffiti.They held it at a place called White River paintball. It was a total effing blast ! they did it right ,the reffing and players being honest when they were hit was great and the players were all really cool and there to seriously play and have fun. I took some good hits with FSR's Oh,btw when these things go by you they whistle/whine like real rounds. took one to my right wrist, side of my neck, and the side of my ass !! ouch ! but the neck hit pain and bruise lingered....a couple lens hits as well but I dealt a lot of death, long range window head shots, head shots and many more.played for 6 hrs taking breaks after each field to reload and air up and whatever else then onto the next field and next scenario. TDM, attack and defend, freeze tag. one field where we only had one mag per player. much pizza for lunch....uh what else do you need? they are having another one May 5th !! ..... Hell yeah ! Cayote Force is a great group of players and a solid team. It was so cool to meet so many of like mind. The closest you can come to war without dying the adrenaline is super high. COD for real brothers and sisters.

Great news m8

That's Just Awesome!!

thats fantastic news, wishing a speedy recovery

Group pic of the Sr admins... with all the pc skills here someone can make that happen...

As many of you know, back in February I had a full mouth teeth extraction done, too many hard drugs and lack of dental care in my younger years had them rotting and breaking in my mouth, so, had 26 teeth pulled at once. The last 2.5 months have been mentally taxing to say the least, you dont realize before hand just what a difference it is going from teeth to no teeth, even crooked broken bojangled teeth like I had, then to just gums, its been a time i tell ya! But, light at the end of tunnel has arrived! I got my prototype dentures today. I wear these for a week and report back any issues, rubbing, tight spots, sizing ect. Color will be decided in 1 week as well,currently teeth and gums of dentures exact same color, the final ones with have proper coloring and such So here is pics of my smile before extraction, after extraction and with prototype dentures in...what a difference!!! also, any members with full dentures who have any advice on adjusting/eating/talking please feel free to drop your advice here

Happy Birthday folks!

Happy Birthday folks!

I'm consistently the worst player on the servers I play on but I have a super great time!! Great entertainment!! In some cases even for the whole family

long time time no shoot. I have been away from the pc for a few years now and have just treated myself to a gaming pc, so I would love to play with you guys again. Ive downloaded the latest of cod 4 that is the remastered game we all love, trouble is i cant seem to find a way to the command prompt to input the ip address, its been many years and a lot of brain fogging medication so im quite lost. and hints as to how to join you would be gratefully received. i think i needed to join via steam but my account has gone.

Gotta enable console in the menu. You don't want to update past 1.7. Servers are still running original COD4, not remastered.

Don't need to be shy around here @BigPapaDean. Was good to see you in game for a little while last night.

Happy Birthday

@Hoth we played the Navarone several times and even beat them on their home field in 87 in a best of 5 match of CTF 25vs25. But in all fairness they we still so cocky they were using stock Sheridan pumps that heal 10 balls and a 10gr cartridge was only good for about 20 shots before it started not shooting very far. We also played against the Bushmasters as well and they all wore Ghillie Suits but once we started attacking those suits made it hard to move fast enough to avoid getting shot. just hard to find the paint on those suits. Some of your old mags probably have pictures of guys I played with in Manufacturers ads since some of the guys who were single and played way too much became some of the first STARS of the Game. One guy always was featured wearing a dress suit because that was how he played. No Camo for him he just was fast, the left gunner/wing man while i played Right Gunner/wing and he knew he was going to be seen since we were both running top speed as far up the field we could get in an attempt the start the fight on the other teams half of the map. Plus it made the not reach the cover they hoped to reach. So if we could gain that much ground in the first 30 seconds of a 30 minute game it was hard for them to win. Good Times and you are right I was killed so many times with a paintball sometimes at point blank range I knew Real War was not for me because I am not the kind to hide in a cave. I got up and encouraged a firefight because I always had them off guard and made many run away out of fear which allowed me to take more of the side flank to keep them from getting around our main attack forces. Great Memories and I still have my camo field jacket/shirt with my team patches and sponsor patches from 35+ years ago. My first Silencer was a metal tube slightly larger then the barrel and it slipped on and the sight bead held it in place and was drilled with many holes and covered in wading to catch the air/sound and then covered in a think black rubber like material that could be shrunk to fit with a heat gun so it looked sharp and fit in your slide cargo between games so the other team couldn't bitch about them. Plus we had a set screw put in the back of our modified guns in the piece you removed to access to spring and allen wrenches in our pockets. This way we could dial in the speed to pass the crono test as you entered the field and then before they blow the starting horn we could tighten to set screw and gat another 25 feet per second out of our guns and not blow balls in the barrel be gave us a bit more range and didn't need to lob the paint in. I could go on and on. Loved playing that game sofakingmuch

Happy Birthday

A good read, Intruder, thanks for sharing

@Intruder Thanks for sharing, don't name our food lol
