Title: Merry Christmas...And Thankyou
Post by: IRI5HJ4CK on December 21, 2009, 15:51:55
Hi All,

I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas,
But before I do...

I'd like to thank the following people who have been brilliant over the past year.

I'd also like to thank some faces who are not with us much anymore online, However, at the time, made Ship Simulator an excellent online game.


And many, many more...
Even though they're not here to see it, I really enjoyed playing online with them all. And I have hundreds of pictures in safe keeping which I remember well, and I hope, to collect many more in the future!!

Finally....Thankyou to everybody, and thankyou to all those also, who sent me many many PM's regarding the IJTS Forum. It really did mean a lot, and it is nice for people to take such an interest.

Also, Thankyou to all the Staff, all the developers, and everyone at V-STEP. You're all fantastic!!

HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS, AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Jack

Wouldn't it have been easier just to say

"I'd like to thank everyone and wish them a happy christmas except for Stuart2007" It would have taken less typing

Finally....Thankyou to everybody

It's comments like that, that are the reason nobody says Merry Christmas and Thank You to you, Stuart :P

Jack, congratulations on the forum, it's a great success and you've put a tremendous effort into it! Merry Christmas, and thanks for all the help in the past months!  :2thumbs:  :2thumbs:

I think I can survive that, thanks Nathan.

It just sounds like an acceptance speech for Hollywood "and most of all I'd like to thank X, Y and not forgetting Z. Lastly I must thank someone I've never met before, and his friends, his milkman...!"

I know/knew everyone in that list :)

If you find my topic irritating, then maybe you understand how the rest of us feel when various topics with no purpose appear every few minutes of the day about Wave Music. Which I don't find all that exciting, personally.

My topic mightn't be overly interesting either, but people who deserve credit should have it, where due.

Jack.

Absolutely Jack. I am in total agreement with you.

Can I thank all of the people here with a similar high intellectual capacity to myself...

We should meet on the IJTS Server!!

Matt has said he can host the server for a few particular days during the Christmas period.

You can see the times, and dates at the NEWS 'box' at the top of the Forum: www.ijts.co.uk

Feel free to register if you so wish, since I also send out E-mails too, for when the Server is running.

Good to see you again!!

Jack :)

he's studying for 'a' level exams in may. he also works at one of our local theatres, so doesn't have much time to go on ship sim at the moment. he says hi & remembers the fun he had on marseille server.

Sorry for being O/T here, but what is this like? I mean, what does the person do? I know what a harbour master does in REAL life, but I've wondered every since I've seen this written, how is it portrayed/done in SS?
Not O/T: Everyone have a good Christmas? I trust Pere Noel, Saint Nick etc etc brouht you what you wanted?
P.S. Good luck to Captain Hoy in his A levels too!  ;D  :2thumbs:
