Hi!

[ryanismean]

Looks like I've been recruited to rock the TF2. Really looking forward to it, I have hardly been able to put it down since joining the beta.

Bit about myself, in case anyone cares: 29, IT professional (specifically, Unix), loooooong time gamer but haven't played competitive since Tribes 2 (mmm, Tribes). Look forward to meeting and playing with you guys. I plan to pick up xfire and hop on TS tonight.

And yeah, my name is Ryan. And I'm mean!

yo IT Professional? u deal with database work right?

[ryanismean]

Mainly I'm a Unix sysadmin, but I deal with various databases on my boxes all the time. Mostly pgsql, mysql, and (of course) the behemoth Oracle.

[Major Tom]

Cool.
Another IT guy.

Ground control to Major Tom
The server's down but you are gone
I guess we'll page you and we'll hope that you respond!

(apologies to David Bowie)

[Major Tom]

I always get a kick out of the David Bowie references.
