Wow! Fifteen years.  Hard to believe it’s been nine years since I raced last.  Joining BFM in 2007 was the best thing I ever did in the gaming world.  You’ve taught a lot of gamers how to be better people, both online and off.  I can hardly wait to get the pieces back together, so racing and admining with you all can be one of the favorite pastimes again. 


Congratulations for 15 years of success!  :yesyes:

^^Thanks Warlord for the great sig!

The joy of racing and getting on Ventrilo! It still amazes me the age gap between everyone and all the different relationships (parents, brothers, etc). And then everyone is so welcoming and inclusive! It has indeed turned us into better people both online and off, couldn't agree more!

15 years....that's crazy! Most guilds or clans rarely last 5, so this is an amazing accomplishment! I am proud to have been a part of this wonderful community, and I am glad to see so many people showing back up after so long. And I agree with Boredom, here's to another 15!

The effect that this clan had on helping me to develop into the person I am today cannot be overstated and I'm sure that is true for many others as well (especially those of us who were in our younger teenage years at the height of Halo racing). I've never seen any community like the one we have here any where else in the gaming world and I doubt that one exists on this scale. BFM is and, I firmly believe, always will be the standard that I measure any other clans I may join in the future against when deciding if I want to join. You guys have set the bar incredibly high and I want to thank all of you and our wonderful guests that continue to populate our servers and these forums. Look forward to another.... I dunno... 15 years?
Being a good racer in Halo isn't just about getting the best times. You have to know where your teammates and enemies are, and most of all... how to be crafty! XD -nods-

Oh... and "v.v" = sad face.






Props to Plixity for the first sig, Slayton for the Season XIII trophy sig, and Jane for the banner! Thx guys! ^.^
