Now where to start? Okay I'll go with these 3 because they're they key:

Wow that sounds a bit flamish but it's not meant too, but how do I phrase it better?
2: Being n00bish. I know some people are but I hate it, especially if I get a pm sent to me about it or a topic saying "What should I put in my army?".
3: People who put forward ridiculously right wing views or are religious fundamentalists. It's nothing personal I just hate those views.

Warhammer didnt exist then the Citadel miniatures were merchadise to be used with D&D and Tunnels and Trolls...yep I'm that old. I remember the very first Warhammer rules book. Havent played constantly all my llife, left it very much alone. Got back in to it about 7 years ago, built and painted 2000pts of O&G and 2500pts of Undead; then sold it all. About 2 years ago I started collecting O&G again and found Warhammer Palace a year later... I'm having fun and you guys keep me interested.

Take an atheist, scientific, left-wing, progressive, New Liberal stance when posting in the OT section. I won't flame if you take a different one, but generally I won't be able to resist attacking your views... which will eat much of the time I should be working. Do not place temptation in my path!

Age:

Mugshot:
Except for the little sprout of hair above my forehead which I am too proud to shave off and the goat's beard dangling from my chin, I am bald. I wear glasses to look intelligent (otherwise nobody believes me :P ) and I am rather thin. In fact, I would love to gain some weight, but I can eat what I want, I just wont get fatter.
Height/weight?:
1,85 meters, 70 kg's.
Name of the pit that spawned you?
Lübeck
Occupation? :
History studies in Hamburg, mainly social history of the 60's and 70's in West Germany
What brought you to WP?:
Google
Area of GW expertise?:
Warhammer Battle, once Roleplay too
Forces:
High Elves - I added up all my figures as a joke once and with characters I easily reached 15.000 points
Tomb Kings - about 4.000 pts.
A unit or two of most other armies, like a unit of dark elf crossbowers, a skaven unit, chaos warriors etc. that have gathered through time.
(By the way, if I should decide to sell any of them because I never use them anyway, Ill mention it here.)
Hobbies outside of GW?:
The time I went partying every weekend trying out clubs, girls and chemical substances is over and now I prefer the more "comfortable" type of evening, getting together with friends and talking or watching a film.
My main interests are history (obviously), politics, psychology and music (Saxophone being my instrument). However, these things often suffer under my similarly strong interests for computer games (mainly warcraft III) and football (Werder Bremen is my team, who is currently the German champion and the Cup winner!! :clap: . Dont you dare mention Olympique Lyon here...).
Musical tastes?:
Differs strongly. When I do go out I like to go to Goa parties. I used to like Oldies more than I do now, but I still listen to them. I love Jazz. Actually the only music styles I dont like are German folk, hard-core techno and everything cheap really that is made without any thought. If I had to name favorite artists, I would mentions Sting and Billy Joel, not because I am fanatic about the music, but because its deep, thoughtful music, both from the lyrics and the actual music. On the other hand I love Goa, so this may seem a bit contradictive...
Favourite film?:
Hard. Similar to music, I appreciate films that go somewhat deeper than the average Jackie Chan film. I consider a film a good film if its still present in your head days after you watched it. Jim Carrol's Basketball diaries was one of these films, Schindler's list another. I also enjoy films like Snatch or Half Baked though, it doesnt always have to be a drama.
Favourite book?:
I really like "The shadow inside my head" written by the American psyciatrist Ronald Siegel. He describes some cases he has dealt with, his field being psychological deseases, mainly schizophrenia, resulting or intensified by the extensive use of cocaine. The cases are very remarkable (e.g. a man chasing the evil little dwarves out of his garden or a guy claiming that he had interviewed Hitlers brain) and it is written very well. I cant call it my favorite book, as there are too many others I like, but I can highly recommend it.
Short guide for members on how to deal with you:
I tend not to ignore it when I am insulted, so I advise you not to do it! Otherwise I think Im easy to get along with. I like arguing, so expect me to show up in these about-the-world-discussions then and again. Oh, and sometimes my irony is misunderstood. If you should see me insult anyone or make an unbelievable comment, check for irony first. In 99% of the cases I wont have meant it seriously. ;)

Acting (im learning my lines for my next play as I type), playing and watching football (american style), watching baseball, generally just rooting for my favorite sports teams and arguing about sports and the greatness of the Red Sox and Eagles :D
Musical Tastes:
Although I listen to most types of music, from classical to Eurotrash, my favorite genre would have to be rap, specifically 50 Cent and Eminem (how tipically american).
Favorite Film:
I'll have to go with Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Favorite Book:
Tough call. I think I have to say Lord of the Rings, though im not really into fantasy. I think that The Mauritius Command is a close second.
Short Guide of how members should deal with you:
I'm very easy going and i can take criticizm, but i really hate people complaining about others whenever a differing opinion is expressed, non-tolerance of others views, flaming, and pretty much all idiotic conservative-bashing (not when people complain about conservatives, but when people don't present viable arguments, just make anti-conservative comments because everyone else does it.)

Anyone care to fill me in?

That's going a bit too far. Chavs keep our cities going. Who else is there to be the cleaners, dustmen, road sweepers etc.?
And how the hell is King a chav? Far from it. A beard like that!! More like a hippy! AND POWER TO 'EM!! :lol:
