It seems a sign of the system that many people have long and pompus names that make it hard to remember (let alone that we only had one game with us all together)

I have a suggestion/Request to make this forum thing easier - can we all make like Ben did and put our player names in our sig file, Reading the pompus language is hard enough without having to work out who is who by going back through pictures.

thanks
Heather

Good idea, and implemented :)

Though, I daresay, on the matter of pomposity... it's 40k! It has to be pompous!

I am aware that the pompus language is a requirement, I am also aware that some of the players speak it as a first language :)

So long as I know who it is I am happy enough to translate.

Done and done!

And I'm happy to know I'm not the only one who has to read something several times to work out what's being said... :oops:

I suspect that all making like me is the last thing you want - I doubt the universe, even the 40K one, can handle that many me's. However I concurr, appending real names to posts is always usefull, nay necessary - 5 years of Cam taught me that if nothing else.

I'll try to remember to do this in future, and hope that people don't get offended if I'm better at remembering their characters' names than I am at remembering their real names.

I'm pretty sure there were folks who turned up a little late to the last game who have no idea who was underneath the costume I was wearing, but I can see how this will be helpful to people in the majority of cases.
