description: I'm arranging an oldbie sniper get together. So people that know me, or were in a sniper guild known by many can join up. Mainy looking for the oldbies that may be around - this is a one off thing just for christmas. I've been asked to do it so I said yes, so who's up for it? If so tell me your details in a PM please.

description: Basically it's just a mess about for the oldbies of the community to show their faces and just talk about stuff and have some fun. I've got so many good memories from the olden days of Renegade, just can't let Renegade go, lol. I'll have to sort out hosts etc, but I'll need a rough idea of who's coming. Sniping skills aren't required really, I haven't touched this game in a year.

The Greek (pretty sure it's Greek) word for Christ starts with the letter X, therefore X is an abrivation for Christ, hence Xmas = Christmas. It is not meant to eliminate the word Christ, merely shorten it. Xtian is also an abrivation for Christian. It is not a secular version of the word, merely a shorter one.

Real credible there... To be honest, I didn't play the beta that much, but I did play it. If I was at my parent's house where the old cd is, if it hasn't been thrown away, I would send you a pic. But I really don't care. My point in posting was to point out that you aren't part of some elite few who have played Renegade since it came out. And besides that, all you do now is bitch about how much it's a shitty game.

description: And your opinion is wrong. Most beta testers were really good at the game with the exception of YV_Seth, who was the most moronic player I've ever come across. This guy was seriously a Nod fanatic. He went above and beyond the level of "OMG NOD RULEZZZZZZz" and the idiots that play fanboy with Reborn and their "OMG REBORN RULEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" comments, but delved to the point of complete and utter worship of Nod. This guy lived, slept, and ate Nod. That is all he thought about. When he joined a game, if he didn't get on the Nod team, he would scream out "NO GDI NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" over and over and finally leave the game... Only to rejoin again to say "NOOOOOOOO GDI NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and keep trying. He never realized that you can't just constantly rejoin to get on a different team. After a while he simply disappeared... And I'm glad. He was an idiot.

Please get hold of Cpt. I don't really mind how the games go, I suppose we could have a special beta tester reunion or something along those lines. Aswell as an oldbie sniper reunion. I consider a oldbie sniper someone with a well known name and reputation aswell as experience behind them. They don't have to be a beta tester to be an oldbie sniper - as sniping didn't really take off during beta. And for dates, well I was hoping for between 22nd December and 28th December or something like that. We could have quite a few organised games, and I also need some offers for a host. 16+ player hosting will be need I think.

Chubakah, Morge0214(me) and Cjscotch. Those were 3 clanmembers that I used to play Tiberian Sun that got to play the Demo and Chubakah got to play the private Beta testing. I got to play a few games with him on his beta account and I really don't see why you people are proud...Is it because You haven't been into many betas? For me It was just a laggy and full of glitches game at that time, the Demo was a little bit better, but still when the game went live that's when It became the most fun.

I do remember all of the "oldbies" that have replied this message so far, but I haven't really seen a lot of really Skilled people...just people that started playing the game at the same time as me, but Quit playing it in less than 1/2 year. While the only person here that has been as active on this game at least for 2 years just like me is Homey. Again I'm not trying to insult anyone, but that's the way I remember that happened.

description: My definition of an oldbie is someone with extensive experience, so those people who were in demo or people who had the game since it was released would be in my opinion an oldbie. Although I also want a beta tester only match. Also, I've beta tested about 30+ games, and believe me they don't come remotely near to the beta experience with Renegade. Those who didn't participate in the Renegade beta test won't know what us beta testers went through. That's why most of the beta testers in Renegade go on about it so much - it was unique. I'll quite happily organise more matchs so others can play, don't worry I won't limit the fun. So you 'middlebies' and whoever else wants to play should get to.
