Cack helped me get the Expert First Aid badge last night. For those of you who choose to pursue this badge, it is downright cruel. The problem with this and the engineer repair badge is how they calculate heals and repairs. You only get a heal/repair point when you have healed 100% of a health bar of a person or asset, regardless of how many bags get picked up or assets you repair, e.g. someone with 2 bars of health picks up a medic bag, you don't get a heal point until you have healed at least 2 bars on someone else. Fortunately, it keeps track of the number of health bars you replenish and gives a heal point every time you pass 100% of a full health. Most people think they get a heal point anytime someone picks up a bag (ammo support is close to this). Needless to say, getting 25 heal or repair points in a round is painful.
Anyways, back to Cack. I was following him around as his personal healer/reviver. Note, he wasn't really using all his skills as he didn't mind being exposed to enemy fire to help me and I was there to keep him healthy or revive him. When we turned it on, I watched him take out squads with combinations of rifles, pistol and C4.
With this first hand view of his skills, I can say there are few that can hang with his ground pounding skills. He is a combination of killing, destroying assets and capping flags. All done at blinding speed that confuses the unprepared enemy. He can pull off the shots (especially with the sniper rifle) and squad wipeouts that have made him well known and perhaps infamous to OMO and regulars. He can and does get killed, but he gets the better of most. On the city maps, he is almost always at the top of the score list.
There is a rumored bounty on his head. He has often been accused of hacking. I didn't see anything strange other than someone able to kick some serious butt.
FYI, do yourself a favor and DON'T EVER teabag or taunt him! I guarantee you he will hunt you down and pursue you until he is satisfied he has demonstrated his superior skills. In addition, he will teabag you evertime just to make sure you know who killed you.
Now when it comes to air and armor, that's another story. I don't feel my age as much there. One exception is an atack chopper gunner. Whether it's me or Cadaver, he can make any competent pilot look like an unstoppable killing machine.
So to Cacknballz1 I say 
Expert First Aid
25 Heal points in a round
750 heals
15 hours Total time played while Medic

Congrats Older on the Expert First Aid! It was a tough one to get and you got within a minute or so of the round ending I think.
Why thank you Older! That means a lot to me actually. I don't usually get praised for things I do in real life. So when I do get praised (even in the virtual world), it feels good. The trick to this is to drink lots of beer during gameplay. This helps me lose my inhibitions and go for some crazy stunts, which actually work sometimes!
Yes don't ever teabag me!  You will be hunted down mercilessly and knifed repeatedly and teabagged yourself. If you must vent your frustration, unload your clip in my "critically wounded" body.
I can never match you or Cadaver's piloting skills. You guys are unmatched and put a real hurt on the other team when you two are up in the sky (especially both in bombers! OUCH!) I know that if you are on my tail it is either try to bail out over a flag or take the death like a man. Because there is no way I'm getting you off my tail, unless maybe MAYBE I'm in the J-10.
For the chopper piloting. Man, I can't stand being in the chopper with anyone else (well I like gunning for Greasespot, and BCO tangle_i as well as they are very good pilots, but I have to use VoIP with them...) Otherwise, it is either you or Cadaver or I'm the one piloting. I can't stand other pilots because they don't understand how to setup TV missile shots like you two. Which is probably why it looks like I am a star with it. (although... that one time... on Dalian Plant... heh heh. 7/7 or 8/8 with the TV missiles! I just love hearing you guys laugh when we are "pwning" it up in the choppa.
Now how about helping me with that Expert Repair and resupply, eh?

Teabag? I drink coffee most of the time but do enjoy a nice cup of tea once in a while.

I had to explain the teabag to my wife a while back and was met with a dumbfounded stare.  She basically said men are pigs and didn't understand how they come up with this stuff. For the unaware, teabagging is a ritualistic dance performed after a kill that draws its name from the idea of a swinging teabag dangling over your fallen opponent. Picture a part of the anatomomy that might server this purpose and I think you can figure it out. 
Oh by the way, got this today. Roadkills are a strange thing within the game. I have been trying this for awhile, but haven't been able to figure it out. I was on Karkand driving a Vodnik through spawn points trying to rack up a measly 5 road kills. After about 20, I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. At one point, with the US holding only Hotel and Square and spawning in large numbers, I made a pass at Square and killed 6-7 in a line, but no badge. This is about the 5th time with huge numbers of kills via Vodnik that I didn't get the badge. I kind of got pissed and went to our server playing Wake. I used a DPV and got the badge within 10 minutes of the round. I still have no idea why I couldn't get this on Karkand. There might be a bug on that map regarding road kills, who knows?

You see here, well the action is to steep one's scrotum into the victim's face after he is dead. This is done by standing over the dead body's head and then repeatedly crouching and standing quickly. The official definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_bagging (LOL! I just checked this just for fun to see if there was an entry.)
To me, this is disrespect. The perpetrator must thusly be hunted down mercilessly for the rest of the round or until I have deemed to show my alpha male superiority in the wild kingdom that is BF2. This is generally done by mowing down the person repeatedly with a vehicle, or preferrably with a knife or pistol, mixed in with some C4 and grenades for some added kick.
QED. (<- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qed)

Congrats Older, although somehow I feel like I'm congratulating a crack head for taking another hit! 
And good job to you Cack for the support job...I know there's a joke there but I'm going to let it go! [}}:-|>>]

Cack, let me know when you want the support badge. I will go crazy again with Claymores, although only 2 at a time. The good news is you get a supply point after every 2 mines I lay down regardless of if they kill.

Congrats to both Older and Cack. You guys are both awesome players. I can only hope that maybe when I grow up I can approach your level of play. On second thought, maybe in my next life.

Lol Rigor.. maybe a few lifetimes. I looked up one of those BF2 stat sites and it said at my present rate it would take 2 years for me to reach a particular rank. (I wont mention what rank).
I believe that calculation is way off mark; it's more like 5 years. The only time I get the knife out is during initiations and even then the thing doesn't work! I hope you do better.

Here was my haul for the day...
For some reason I got second and third of these
Armor Combat Medal(s)
I got a second one of this
Air Combat Medal
Expert Aviator Badge
Expert Ground Defense
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that they changed the requirements for the Expert Armor. Looks like you still need 400 hours and 24 kills in a round. I will try to get expert Air Defense, Helicopter, Transport and the Helicopter Combat Medal... Need a bunch of points for the war college ribbon. Will eventually cap it off with the Expert Engineer.

Cack, I wanted to thank you for flying me around and getting me those ribbons and medals! It was great to get in with a good driver(flyer) and take out some bad guys.
Thanks again

Oh yeah! That was pretty fun! You learned quite quickly actually. At first you weren't seeing the targets I was pointing out for you, but in 5 minutes you were blasting up mofos in record time!

I will help you with getting the heli medal. As long as the chopper is the Cobra or Z-10 I am gold. Don't really like flying the Havok too much, although I seem to get more kill assists with it because of the anti-matter wahalla buhallla ma allah cannon. So if you haven't gotten it when I login tonight then let's pwn some ground pounders and armour.

Thanks again to Cack and Cadaver for helping me get the Expert Heli Badge and most recently Cack for helping me with:
Helicopter Combat Medal
IAR: 30 kills in a Helicopter
100h while in Helicopter
5000 kills while in Helicopter
Ok, I earned this twice over the last few days due to some lag in the account server reporting awards. The kills took some recent effort because I usually end up piloting for people and don't focus on kills for myself. Thus my kill total relative to my time in the chopper was low. Cack and Cadaver have let me gun recently and I finally got over the total and hit all the IAR requirements. All the standard BF2 medals are complete.
