Title: Long time, no see.
Post by: SSG (Ret) Beard on December 06, 2018, 09:08:55 AM
Hello to all. Nearly 12 months since you all saw my ugly head. Finally, I can afflict you with my presence again. Fortunately, the rumors of my demise were greatly exaggerated.

I have been in a lengthy legal battle. Long story short, my ex used allegations about me in regards to her daughter to attempt to terminate the relationship and avoid fair division of property and also to negate any ability for myself to have contact with my son.

She also was after the $75,000 automatic compensation pay out that is currently in place for victims of sexual abuse.

Today at approximately 1600hrs Western Australian time, a panel of 12 jurors unanimously found me not guilty of all 10 charges that were leveled against me after a 4 day trial.

Thank you to all who have supported me through this troubled time.

Unfortunately, I cannot rejoin the ranks just yet. The bitch still has my computer. As soon as I have a new, kick ass pc built I will be 40 miking the shit out of every virtual battlefield that I can.

Some of you that read this will not know me at all. That is good. I'm an asshole.
For those that are new here, do not underestimate what you can take into real life from this community. It is a very deep well of life experience to be drawn from. The leadership skills that you have the opportunity to learn here have the ability to change your life if you take the time to apply them to the real world.

The friends you make here will last longer than you can ever expect.

If you take the time to listen and think, your time here in a virtual world can and will improve you as a person in the real world.

Thank you to all those that created and continue to keep the 506th IRRU alive.
Currahee!!!!

Holy shit look who it is.... the person who took S-2 to a whole new level.

It's also the SOB who took the wheels off an active enemy BTR mid combat (he got in trouble for that one, so don't do it). 

Glad to hear you were victorious.  I expected nothing less.  Hope to catch you online one of these days.  With my reserve transfer I don't make it on as much as I used to, but more than you'd think.  See you around, Beard.

That is a genius thing to do... dangerous, but genius nonetheless.
Also, I don't know you Beard, but glad to hear that justice still exists in this world.

Although my heritage is mostly Irish, I don't like potatoes enough to play ARMA on that pile of shit again. I have an excuse to buy a monster PC and I have no woman to oppose me. It is time for SSG to buy something shiny and new...

As for the allegations, each one carried a maximum sentence of 14 years.

10 charges.

It was pretty fucking scary for a while there.

I start by milking the shit out of your spelling, Specialist.

Unfuck that shit right now.

Captain?

Congratulations, Sir.

When I get a spare 5 minutes I will set up TS on this pile of shit laptop and catch up with everyone.

You had to mention the bloody BTR.... And the 13th... Good times. Better ones to come...

Who the fuck made you a SSG? Doesn't matter. I am Australian and therefore outrank you.

What the fuck does <3 mean??? You trying to approach me in a white van and offer free icecream? For fuck's sake Eluri.

Congrats on getting a squad, brother. I guarantee you are kicking arse (whilst also pissing off the COC. Especially during debreifs).

Can't wait to catch up.

Hope everything is going awesome, O'neill.

If only not showing up to work got me promoted IRL - that would be slick lol

Glad everything worked out and that you're doing well. Look forward to seeing you back online soon.

Congratulations SSG Beard.  I didn't roll with you too often but it great to hear you come out on top legally.  I had a woman make accusations of me that ruined a 17 year career in public safety...I can relate.  And during my divorce my ex had a kid with another dude and tried to pin child support on me.  She was a real peach...

Enjoy your singleness.  Enjoy your freedom.  Each one of us is one mistake away from losing it...in my case I got re-married so there ya go.  I'm an idiot.

Seriously though, drop some money on a frickin kick ass PC.  When you fire that bad boy up, sit back and reflect on what you've been through.  It will be one of the sweetest moments in your life.  You're so right about the community here.  Although I've been out for awhile, if I needed these guys I know they'd be there for me even though I've never met any of them in person.   Pretty amazing thing when you think about it.

Take care Beard.  Ya know...I hear they've got this thing called Tinder that you can get on your phone...not that I know anything about how it works...I just hear stuff.   8)

For me it was Mingle, not tinder. Her name is Ririn and she has taken the last 6 months and bought the light of love to the darkest of days.

When you have experienced the worst of women, when a real one comes along, you have genuine appreciation for what is truly good in the fairer sex.

As for the PC, I can't wait :)
