Hi guys, Hunter's here
I'm a German guy straight from the Dutch border and was born there in 1987, so figure out my age yourself :ugeek:
I like to call myself an old Bantha, just as they did in Rogue Squadron - my first ever Star Wars game which I loved!
I've had JK2 for ages as a copy on CD and played the SP a few times and then had it laying around somewhere. It was when internet became more available in 2006 that it struck me like a lightning - it might be possible to play this game online, which it was. This shitty copy and a lack of installed patches were no obstacles at all. It didn't take long to make me an addict: The fact that you can fight on the one hand, but also just hang around and have a chat, on the same map, in the same mode - awesome! I was also attracted by the widely accepted, kinda old fashioned merits, of that kind to only fight players with saber on and bow before a duel, you get the idea. The small community helps in the particular way that you always see familiar faces whenever you come online.
I've seen big clans rise and fall, one of the most prominent imo was Talon's no Force, where I started to play JK. I then joined TLJ - a time that I really like to remember. I even met one member in real life, nice guy that was. Nowadays the clan is history like so many others and there's no real NF FFA server around. I therefore adapted to play a bit CTF at which I still suck and relax on Dark Homebase.
A few words to my person: I'm a sportive guy and just finished my masters in bioinformatics and am looking for a decent opportunity - help anyone?^^ Studying took me quite some time but the journey included a stay abroad in China and also the writing of my thesis at the German Aerospace Center/ESA which was a really great experience.
Hopefully, I could give you an idea of myself and thanks to the admins/team that realized this homepage. A compliment also for the header/banner. Let me use this opportunity to suggest an image/picture section for all JK2 (-player) related images/screenshots. Point out, if there is one already.
