Re: Callsigns
To my knowledge, there is no way to find out how you earned a callsign after you get it, you just have to pay attention. Please though, contribute on the Callsigns talk page, it's one of our most in-need-of-help articles. 00:32, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

MW2
Honestly, the Hardened edition isn't all it's cracked up to be. I mean, unless the person you're giving it to is like a hard core Call of Duty devotee, then you probably will be safe in just buying the regular edition of it. 14:38, December 4, 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem. 18:07, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

I have the Hardened edition. Mainly because I wanted to play COD1 and see how it all began ya know? Sgt.Safe-Sex 07:04, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Characters Wikia
Sure you can join. Put this userbox on your page (just copy and paste the coding>):

Re: Alliance to End Firearm Ignorance
What do you mean "decide between"? Do you mean to buy? If so, Lugers can be quite expensive. Anyway, I have shot all three of those guns and myself, I'd pick the PX4. It's a great tactical pistol. Good sights, feels good, decent accuracy, decent magazine size. Any of the calibers would be a good choice, it's really a matter of personal preference. The Luger feels nice and natural in your hand, but the toggle lock jumping up in front of the sights is annoying. The Micro Eagle is an okay pocket pistol. The sights aren't very good and overall, there are better pocket pistols out there (Ruger LCP and PX4 subcompact to name a couple). Hope that's helpful, just ask whenever you need it. 05:29, December 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Hey, nothing wrong with a little extra protection, right? That's why I have, let's see, six handguns?  For your situation, I'd definitely recommend the PX4, out of your choices.  I use the Springfield XD(m) a lot, which is a great gun.  05:40, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

It's not a bad deal. I got my XD(m) for a little of over $600, which was't bad considering all the accessories it comes with (two mags, paddle holster, mag holder, grip backstrips, lock, mag loader). Prices have dropped since then. If you've got about a $450-$500 price max, then do a little shopping around, you should be able to find a good gun for a good price. Feel free to consult me at any time. Not tonight though. I'm off to bed. Talk to you again sometime. 06:01, December 5, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Other CoD Games
I definitely think they're good buys. If you can only get one go with CoD4: MW, as it was generally better and it'll help you understand CoD: MW2 better. If you can afford both, go for it. A lot of people don't like CoD: WaW, but I think it's great.

As far as sigs go, I can make you one if you'd like. Just give me a font, colors, picture and rank and I'll design one for your approval. 18:22, December 7, 2009 (UTC)


 * How does this look: ?  The font you picked isn't wiki-supported, so I had to upload it as an image, so you won't be able to edit the text.  If there are any changes you'd like me to make, tell me.  To use it, type  at the end of your posts.

Glad you like it. 04:22, December 8, 2009 (UTC)


 * That's cool. CoD: MW2's multiplayer is essentially very similar to CoD4: MW, so you won't be missing out on too many things.  Just a few different guns is all.

X Box Live
Hey man add me my GT is xX M3D1C4T3D Xx but I will be changing it to Sgt.Safe-Sex soon(hopefully) btw im 14 so if you dont want to play with a kid it's cool. Sgt.Safe-Sex 05:35, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Awesome see you on there I guess. Sgt.Safe-Sex 05:35, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Userbar
Wow, that looks really cool. I love it. And by the way, I added you to the AEFI members list on my page. Sorry it took so long. 06:27, December 8, 2009 (UTC)


 * Nah, it's perfect. You can never go wrong with black.  Well, I'm off to bed, talk to you later.  06:32, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Just curious—what application is it? 01:02, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool stuff. I read a tutorial on how to make a userbar with Photoshop, and it appears far easier than I thought it would be. I'm good with Photoshop, so I should try making one sometime. 03:17, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose that would be cool, but I don't think that many people would have a real use for them. 00:32, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

I didn't even bother trying in Photoshop as it would probably require more work than other alternatives, so I just tried the userbar designer, and man, was it easy! I made two non-animated userbars and I tried at an animated userbar. The animated was apparently uploaded to ImageShack, but it unfortunately it would never load correctly when I try to view it to save onto my own hard drive. PhotoBucket embedding is supported better by Wikia, I believe, but the designer uploaded it to ImageShack, so, yeah.

Since you've probably looked at plenty before, I'd like some feedback if you wouldn't mind :).





Also, would you mind telling me if the following appears correctly [or at all] on your screen? It should be an animated userbar with the caption "Designated Driver"; witty in the same manner as some callsigns are.

Re: Separate user Pages
Oh, it's easy. You just click the "Create a new article" button over there on the left, and then in the space for the title of your page, just put:

User:EightOhEight/___

Just replace the blanks with the name of your new page, obviously. That's all there is to it. 05:30, December 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * P.S. There's no space between the forward slash in the title, and the name you pick. Just in case you couldn't tell. 05:32, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
