Sorry man I know it wasn't my hardware or stuff like that. I realize I'm not a good player but I just like this game. I'm just happy for myself because I'm not a good player but I try. I was just trying to say that because I'm not a good player that it was an accomplishment for me that's all. I didn't mean to imply that it wasn't me but my stuff.

Gratz, it's fun to get things like that. It makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. And for a fairly casual gamer (from what I can determine) you're doing good, keep it up.

I'll be joining you at 1st Sergeant in 350-ish short points. Kind of regret leaving behind my Gunnery Sergeant rank, as I like it when people underestimate me.

Once you get first sergeant it makes you feel special that your rank in game is more bold than the ones below you

Congrats on the ranking. But the annoying thing is that when you get the rank it takes you absolutely ages to get the next. Ohwell its 2 good anyway Iv'e got 8,000 left lol.

I will be first to say hardware means nothing. I play with all my settings on the lowest, play Euro servers where I have a 130 ping. And i still do pretty decent so i think hardware means nothing its how good you are.
