Gametechmods.com is under new management as of right now.
Trovaner said he would take over and maintain the forum as it has come time for me to retire.
Here's the deal .....
I need to change my life, I have played long enough.
I divorced 14 years ago and have not been serious since ..... nor have I had many women since (had some wild ones).
I have had a few, but would not get serious with them, but have been talking to a girl I have known for several years and she is very pretty, and for some weird reason she likes me.
So, I have decided to straighten my act up and go after her!
Anybody here ever hear about Murphy's Law? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murphy%27s_law)
Well we were talking about dating 6 freaking weeks ago and I had to go to work on a long job. (she is VERY pretty and probably has somebody else by now, and I have other problems, so ....)
I caught that flu that killed a lot of people and I was damn near one of them.
Well anyway, my eyes were going bad and I felt like sh** all the time and it got to where my eyes would blurr even with reading glasses on.
I have not been to a doctor since 1998
I went to see a doctor!
He took my blood pressure and started stuttering!
He said it was super high and I was way up in stroke range.
After an EKG, blood tests and all that, he decided that pills would fix me.
They helped my blood pressure, but I have to reach down to make sure the little guy is still there .... Doc said it will get better in time.
I started exercising and realized I am in pitiful shape, so I spend my spare time exercising now.
Some of you know I am old ..... none of you know how old.
Next month (March) I will be 55 ..... too damn old to be playing a 10 year old kids game.
I work in the oilfield and make real good money, so I can afford to pay the bills to keep this going, and will if I need to.
I own a machine shop, 2 houses and 2 commercial buildings that I really need to take care of as I have neglected them too.
I already have all the big boys toys I need ..... boats, Rhino, 4x4 trucks, jeeps, guns and fishing tackle .... NO WOMAN ..... I need to fix that!
I have enjoyed having this place and really enjoyed the game for years, but it is time for me to concentrate on other things.
I am not leaving completely , because the force of habit won't let me .... just not gonna run it anymore.
You guys help Trov if he needs help so you can keep your forum going ........ see you around, and I will still run BOTM for a while.

Things are really changing on this year. Good luck, ACAMS. :thumbup
-
Good luck with your health ACAMS. And good luck Trov.
-
What?!?!?? :O
Was not expecting this. I gonna miss you.
-
G'bye for now, sir. Thank you for what you've done.
-
Good luck, ACAMS
-
Peace.
So what does ACAMS stand for? :dumb)
-
I saw this thread in the side of the main page and half didn't take it seriously and half did, 'twould explain why Trov's back (if he ever 'left' that is) but I thought this was a play on the Disney/Google joke (my chrome crashed before I actually read this) and then I looked at this thread.
I'm only a middleweight here and I haven't even known you for a full year yet, but this forum is one of the best I've seen and I don't think I'll go from it for a while, and you created it.
So! ACAMS, take care of yourself and your life. I wish you luck with your health (That's some scary four letter words man), your love, your job, all that good stuff. Keep trucking on, man. I think I'm gonna miss your half-troll politics posts :mrgreen:
-
sh**ty owner ousted, good owner put in place.
I don't mean to brag, but I think this has something to do with me.

Thank you sir for all the work you have done over the years, your work was extremely appreciated brotha. Good luck gettin healthy man because that's the main priority, not having dumbasses bitching about the forum. . (if you need any exercise advice i assure you i could help ya out.)
but most most importantly, get some ass my friend.
-
cya acams. wel-come trov.
-
Fare well big man.
-
Peace.
So what does ACAMS stand for? :dumb)
The name of my machine shop
Anderson County Automotive Machine Shop
sh**ty owner ousted, good owner put in place.
I don't mean to brag, but I think this has something to do with me.
Don't flattter yourself .... you had nothing what so ever to do with it.
I only banned you to put you in your place ...... Trov may make it permanent if you act stupid with him, but I am nice.
On another note ...... in Dec I weighed 285# ........ I am now below 250# and have a rope holding my pants up and every piece of meat on my body aches ..... except one, but he is getting better.
Like I said, I am not leaving right now, just turning it over to Trov.
If you get out of line I will still come down on you ...... even you Nudal.
-
Stay healthy, dude.
Hard to get some ass when you're not healthy.
-
Sucks when life gets in the way. If I'm ever down in Texas, I'll be sure to drop by.
-
Good luck CAMSy.
-
Thank you and good luck.
'twould explain why Trov's back (if he ever 'left' that is)
I never left; I just didn't see the need to post. Even during the slow periods, I visited the forums at least once a day.
-
I for one welcome our new trovanic overlord
-
Hey ACAMS. Thanks for everything.
Too bad I never taught you how to snapper load though :/
-
Thank you and good luck.

well not left but took a break, but you knew what I meant. Glad to have you as our new (or next or something) forum admin :gawe:
As kill said; The Acamsthian era has declined, I welcome the new Trovanic Era (That sounds really awesome)
-
I hereby declare "Trovanic" a word.
-
hope trov will not become a racist
-
Hellz yeah, you sexy old man, go get some TAIL.
-
The Trovanee era has started.
Bye ACAMS.
-
Bye then.
Hail to Trovaner!
-
Change of superior, eh ? We'll see how this works.
also bye acams, don't let anyone or anything stop you cause that's how a manly man should be.
Good choice of new admin as well. Hail Trovaner !
-
Hey ACAMS. Thanks for everything.

He never learned how to snapper load?
Oh lawd, even I can snapper load.
-
Good luck ACAMS. Never got to know you really but you seem sensible enough. Women aren't all they're cracked up to be though so don't get your hopes up too much :D. All the best.
P.S. I hope people don't start going stupid now ACAMs has moved on... keep it sane round here.
-
Wow, okay, just clicked on GTM out of habit and saw this thread.
Seriously, ACAMS, thank you so much for everything you've done over the years, and good luck gettin' healthy and gettin' dat ass ;p
Also, good luck to Trov - may be a hard job, but I feel you're a great choice of person to take it on.
Finally I feel it's a good time to give this place another chance.. I've calmed down a bit, and I have a tournament to finish. :)
-
Best wishes to ACAMS, running a place like this must be pretty stressful so a break may be what is needed to get your health back in check. Good luck with the lady business and with getting healthy.
Good luck Trov running this forum, have a feeling you're going to need it :) but I have confidence in you doing a great job.
-
Good luck with everything ACAMS, good to hear that your doing something about your health.
-
I may be a newcomer but I've seen enough to understand the things you had to cope with in this forum.
the Internet is a disease and must be dealt with respect, too much and you're in trouble.
Cya m8, and good luck on your quest.
-
Dont be shy coming around now Camsy, but I can totally understand why you want to head away and live your life, much the same why im not around much..
Its great you managed to see out the 10th anniversary, Thanks for the 4 years and 15 days of entertainment you made accessible during my time online you will be missed and I think undisputedly now take the top seat in the RA2 hall of fame ;)
-
Good luck then man, and good luck to Trov too.
-
I told you guys he had more important sh** to deal with...
Good luck with life, love and the pursuit of happiness, ACAMS. Thanks for creating this place that has entertained me for almost four years.
Oh, and take the advice in my avatar. Those burners will screw you up.
-
P.S. I hope people don't start going stupid now ACAMs has moved on... keep it sane round here.
Nobody better even think about it. I've left an offer on the table to come back if Trov deems it necessary.
-
Kill and his banhammer don't take no sh** from nobody.
-
Time to make my monthly post
Bye ACAMS, thanks for all the good you've done for the forums and good luck with sorting out your health and getting some ass :p
-
Much luck in your endeavors ACAMS, and many thanks for all you have done.
-
Good luck ACAMS. Never got to know you really but you seem sensible enough. Women aren't all they're cracked up to be though so don't get your hopes up too much :D. All the best.
P.S. I hope people don't start going stupid now ACAMs has moved on... keep it sane round here.
I doubt it, the only person who was actually afraid of ACAMS was qwerty, and I don't think he'll be hard to quash if he starts acting up.
-
55? That's some real dedication! So ACAMS finally decided to retire. All in all hope you have the best of luck finding that significant other :)
-
Good luck with everything Camsy, and thanks for everything- even if we've had our moments of contention in the past, you've been a good guy to know.
-
WTF Gigafrost too?
-
So many oldies coming back :D
-
I know, it's weird.

Duuude, you made some sweet stuff.

What ACAMS has done for this community cannot be understated. Hosting the forum for years, giving us a place to talk. As legends of the game go, he'll always be right up there. I for one cannot express my gratitude enough. I believe (Though correct me if I'm wrong), that he is also the reason we got the 1.3 patch.
Thanks, ACAMS. I hope your free time treats you well andyou get done what you want in life.

Goodbye ACAMS, you're gettin' old, time to step down
but now we don't have a cranky admin now, time to party

Next thing we should get rid of is stupid n00bs.

Not time to party... Trovaner will run a tighter ship. I have a feeling multiple-time offenders that don't straighten up will be banned for good.

Same here- it'll be good to see the Justice Fisting commence.

Meganerdbomb has been banned for 2 weeks, just you know.
For now there has been no whacking of offenders by Trov, excepted for MNB. I'm the only one who did it recently. We'll see.

I've not been here much lately actually, so I don't think there'll be much justification- just an occasional appearance here and there really, since I'm on ARC more these days.
-
Thanks for everything you've done, ACAMS! The forum will forever have the utmost respect for you for managing GTM as a great administrator and keeping the RA2 community alive. I wish you the best of luck in your journeys through life.
-
HEY NO IM LEAVING THREADS SOMEBODY BAN THIS MAN
IM SORRY I MEAN MUTE THIS MAN...
-
daaamn this is cray that ya left ya ol bastard the day before my return.......
I was called back to the game by a mysterious force, and I will always carry the torch in your honor ol' man. An influence from day one.....
I will surely build bots in ode to you.
-
Certainly humbling to hear acams, I mean, I've always perceived you as an omniscient being. D:
-
Best wishes Acams. You are departing for all the right reasons and I hope your life goes in a terrific direction.
-
I have had a few, but would not get serious with them, but have been talking to a girl I have known for several years and she is very pretty, and for some weird reason she likes me.
I started exercising and realized I am in pitiful shape, so I spend my spare time exercising now.
Next month (March) I will be 55 ..... too damn old to be playing a 10 year old kids game.
I have enjoyed having this place and really enjoyed the game for years, but it is time for me to concentrate on other things.
These were more or less the reasons for which I moved away from the forum, too. Good luck man, and have fun! It's going to be one heck of a journey.
-
Oh wow, well good luck with everything ACAMS and congrats Trov :bigsmile:
-
The king is dead, long live the king!
Respect your decision to leave and reform ACAMS, life reformation is one of the most respectable decisions/acts a person can do, at least in my eyes anyway.
Good luck to you Trov!
-
Good luck ACAMS. Have fun with life and make the best of it.
-An old bas****.

:beer: :gunz:
you need to mesh your love of women and robots. May I recommend the 1987 movie "Cherry 2000."
