BF2S Staff
Yes, real people run this site! Here's some basic info about us.
Admins
Responsible for the site. You can contact these people if you need anything.
Jeff Minard
Hi! I'm Jeff. I guess you could consider me to be the controlling interest in this site. I make websites for a living and for fun. Technology has always enthralled me, and who in their right mind doesn't enjoy games?
My personal site, now severely neglected because of this one, has a blog and some photos and other such trinkets. I was born in '83 which, at the time of writing, makes me 22. I work at CNET as a full time job, and do this BF2S thing 1) during my weekends.

Travis Fillmore
Hi! I'm Travis. I am one of 4 roommates that Jeff has and I have been around bf2s.com since the very early days of the site. I am also very knowledgeable when it comes to BF2 as I have been pretty involved with the community since the beginning.
My portfolio site shows off some of my artwork and such, and is another creation of the brilliant mind of Jeff. I was also born in '83 which makes me 23 currently. I work in the Compliance Department of a prominent video game company 2). Yes, I get to play test video games for a living… it isn't as fun as you might think.

Markimus -- //Retired//
Hey there, I'm Mark. Although I was not working with Jeff at the initial launch of BF2S, I have been following it since. Some of you may recognize me from when I created UBAR, the first place to view the actual requirements for ranks and awards in the game. With the recent demand for more power to run BF2S, Jeff has picked up a new server - “The Gibson”. I continually help out Jeff with various things on this server and I enjoy working on it. We now also run a few other servers which contribute towards the success of BF2S, which essentially makes me the System Administrator. Recently I have been working on new and upcoming projects for the site, and on the side I run the files area as well. I certainly look forward to the future of BF2S and watching it grow.
Austin Noack
Greetings! I'm Austin. I help out with little miscellaneous coding projects/improvements for BF2s (assistant coder) and also help keep “The Gibson” up and running. I am 22 and live in a small suburb outside Austin, Texas called Lago Vista. I spend most of my time coding (PHP) and working on miscellaneous projects. When I'm not working I'm on the trails or in the mud with my dirt bike, or playing BF2. Working with Jeff and Mark on BF2s has been an excellent learning experience. I hope to stick around for a while.

B.Schuss
Hi. My name is Georg, I am 30 years old, and I am an alcoholic….no, wait, that's the wrong text…) Nothing much to say really. I stumbled over this site while browsing the web for BF2 sites and registered on the forums in August of 2005. I was a pretty frequent poster and since we had ( and still have, I suppose ) a considerable number of German members, Chuy asked me to become a mod to help out in case some of them wouldn't be able to communicate in English. I was also one of the driving forces behind the creation of the “Debate and Serious Talk” subforums, and yes, there are times when I regret that…^^ I am also the head admin for the bf2s.com EU ranked Server.

Ok then, well real name is Matt, I'm 27 and from the land down under. I love BF2 also but I've never in my life had a game push the limits of my sanity so far and so often!!! and it does not help that I've got an extremely short fuse! I LOVE motorbike riding both on and offroad, going hunting and hanging out with mates drinking beer. Apart from that I just cruise along in life doing whatever I want and taking it easy!

Darth_Fleder
Hi all, my in-life name is Michael and am 42. My eldest son introduced me to both BF2 and BF2S.com back in late July of '05 and I have been hooked ever since! Speaking of children, I have four, three of whom play BF2! Originally hailing from San Diego, CA. I now reside in Orlando, Florida where I work as an electrical design engineer. I am currently on hiatus from school after having finished my fourth degree in engineering related disciplines. I am happy and excited to be working for the most awesome site devoted to my favorite online game, Battlefield 2!
Ty
Hi, I'm Peter, 19 and I am the second southern hemispherical Moderators here. I live in Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand and have been hooked on the Battlefield series since I first played the Wake Island Multiplayer Demo for BF1942 back in 2002. Since then I have been attempting to acquire myself a working computer - until very recently I have been working and writing on an eight-year-old laptop, but now with my new PC I can put more into both Bf2s and Battlefield 2 itself, which I'm looking forward to. I'm a student at Victoria University doing Law and a BA, (still not sure what my Major is.) I also write and draw a comic. Chances are you'll see some of my amateurish work around the site, (it will be getting published early next year! Woohoo!)

liquidat0r
Hey there, although you all know me as liquidat0r, I do actually have a name. I’m Adam Fuller. I live in the UK (London/Kent) and I’m 16. I haven’t been around bf2s since the very start, but I have been here quite while now. So far I’m enjoying being a moderator of this wonderful community. Obviously, I play BF2. Strangely enough, my in-game name is liquidat0r
More about me… I am a member of the '[KNTL]' clan. In fact, I am co-founder of the clan and I admin on our website along with Zimmer92. The KNTL website is my first creation and it’s got me hooked on web building. When I’m not on bf2, bf2s or my PC in any way its probably because I’m at college, work, or swimming training, (I’m a competition swimmer).
duffry
Hi. I'm a Brit bloke who's advancing steadily into middle-age. I've been loving the FPS genrea since the days of Doom and fondly remember playing deathmatch with a null-modem cable. I got into online gaming with CoD then moved onto BFV, from there it was a natural progression to BF2. Wow! Deciding with a friend that we wanted to take this game further we started the =|DMZ|= as a BF2 clan and community. Been loving BF2S since before the DMZ and since this has been our stats site of choice since the start I wanted to put back into it. Thanks to Chuy and all who contribute.

Morning/Afternoon people. If you are reading this, you must be quite bored… :)
OrangeHound
Hi! My name is Doug … I'm 43 and live with my wife and four kids just outside of Washington DC. You might find it interesting to know that I was working on the internet before most of you were even born, and before it was even called the “internet” - I was an electrical engineer working on the public part of the ARPANET in its later years, and I worked with the development of its original backbone called NSFNet, the internet's first TCP/IP WAN … and yes, I was using email while the rest of you were still slobbering on your postage stamps. I eventually moved on to military satellite networking (the ultimate WAN). Today, my internet involvement is just browsing & email, and I work on the design & coding of a couple of PHP/MySQL based websites.
I love BF2 & BF2s, and I'm honored that Chuy selected me as a moderator here. A large fan of both baseball & football (the American version … though I like Australian). I used to have a lot of hobbies, but kids take up most of my free time now. About the only hobby I have left is my beloved house construction hobby, to the dismay of my wife. In case you are wondering, the name OrangeHound comes from the University of Tennessee where I got my undergraduate degree (the school color is orange, and the mascot is a hound).
Bernadictus
My name? Pope Bernadictus XVII. Oh wait, wrong Wiki. I'm Bernard Westerdijk, a 22 year old student from the Netherlands. Just like Alpha (and a load of others I can't think of right now)! Currently in my 4th and final year of school, and then on to becoming a succesful DTP designer. Beside BF2 and BF2s.com my hobbies are Scuba Diving (PADI certified Rescue Diver, onto Dive Master), designing and anything Apple :), and of course my Girlfriend, who I still love after 4 years - sentimental wreck, I am not married yet - . I'm one of the few people that play BF2 on a Mac and damn proud of it.
mcminty
Hi, my name is Andrew, 17 years old. I live in Sydney, Australia, and as such, am the second Aussie Mod
. After getting to 1st Sgt, my growing boredom of the game and my crappy internet connection have resulted in me spending more time on BF2s. My main interests would be aviation and photography, with playing music on the side. My interests in aviation have lead me to join the Australian Air Force Cadets. Recently I spent 2 weeks at a RAAF Base to get promoted to CCPL (Cadet Corporal)
. When I finish school in a year (…only a year
), I am looking to become an engineer, or to enter the RAAF through the Australian Defense Force Academy (a degree and officer entry).
DonFck
Hello, Anders here! I'm a 26 year year old Export Manager from the town of Turku in Finland. Lately, I've been more addicted to these forums than the game BF2 itself. Oh, and in game I'm a chopper/driver point ho' ;) I believe I'm the first Mod from up North.. *checks* Yes, I am! :D I play guitar in a band called “First of the New”; alt-prog-metallic-rock(?) for three years now, I think..
Flaming_Maniac
Hi there, my name is Ray, a 16 year old Texan. I play BF2, almost as much as I'm on this site, so look for me with the name Flaming_Maniac with a =cREE= tag affixed.
BigmacK
As a recently appointed moderator to BF2s.com, I've spent some time on these forums. A couple of months back, I was graciously accepted as an administrator for the BF2s US server. I am a member of the WOoKie Sniper clan, and consider myself fairly proficent with a sniper rifle. I was considering leaving this site and BF2 all together, however I have decided against it. I am a little rusty, so if you see me in game sucking it up, don't worry. I'll be back to my old ability soon.
PM me with tech questions and the like, I'm always happy to help out where I can.

Hello everyone! My name is Ben and I'm 16 and trying to get through school. I happen to love computers (and Battlefield 2
) as well as guns. I plan on getting my Ph.D in chemistry, so I've got my work cut out for me, but games like BF2 will always distract me! I like anime, FPS, RTS, RPGs, reading, hiking, upgrading my computer, and my girlfriend
!
M90Medic
Hello. My name is Magnus, I'm 24 years old, and live in Täby, a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden. I'm a veteran of several FPS games, and currently in service of the Swedish Homeguard (Territorial Army, National Guard, Weekend Warriors…) Did my military service as a machinegunner, and later on as a combat medic. Between working as a trauma RN at one of 5 hospitals in the Stockholm area and the wife pelting me with chores, I spend what free time I have at BF2. Tragic? I think so too.
Coolbeano
Greetings. I'm a guy of undisclosed age with an undisclosed name of an undisclosed nationality in an undisclosed location on an undisclosed planet. It is in this solar system though. Anyway I'm last on this list because I'm too lazy to reorganize the list so I'm in the right place; first. I've worked on several Wiki pages including WikiPedia. I also manage a large and active forum community, a personal website, pages worth of in-depth game guides, gigabytes worth of various mods for various games, hundreds of pages of publication and articles for local newsletters and even national papers, gigabytes worth of self-made artwork and music and loads of photoshop art. I'm also a Grammar Nazi. I > You.

What can I say - I am Canadian and a Zenmaster, obviously. Shall I teach you the ways of Zen? I think not. Unless you can spare some change rofl. Buttseckx!!one
I am in third year Electrical Engineering at UVic in Victoria, Canada. I am currently taking four school terms in a row, splitting fourth year and third year courses. Right now I am taking Microwaves, Fiber Optics, Thermodynamics, Digital Signal Processing II, and Engineering Economics.
Mr.Widdim
Well… here we go again… I am Mr.Widdim, the official: Second Apostle of Chuy. Yeah, I think that says pretty much what I do here. Ok, apology time, I tend to enjoy Battlefield Vietnam more than Battlefield 2. Wow, that was tough, here comes the flamers. So anyway, the real reason I am writing this is that I was, “hired,” (more like, “let in…”) by Chuy to help this here WikiTeam out. Therefore, I am off to write some wiki material! Tally ho! http://www.battlefieldninjas.com
commandochristian
Hey all! My name is Christian! You know me in game and in the forums as commandochristian. I'm 19, an Eagle Scout, and I was born Californian, living there until I moved to Michigan in 1997, where I'm currently attending college. I first became hooked on BF2 when my friend creationister7 let me play it on his computer. Shortly after, I “enlisted” on 1/8/2006, and discovered this site, instantly falling in love with the stats, the wiki, and the forums. I finally joined the forums on 10/6/06. Now, as of 2/4/07, I'm a member of the Wiki Team! When I'm not in class, I'm usually on here, and if I'm not online, I'm either thinking about getting on BF2S or playing BF2, and sometimes looking at buildings and other locations and thinking, “That would be a good sniping spot.” See you in the forums and on the battlefield!
Snake
Sup fellas. My name is Chris, Im English, 21 years old on an apprenticeship with an engineering firm. Part time @ University too = a full time job and a degree for free!!
You may have seen me in game as $nake$hiT99, or just Snake on the forums.
In terms of BF2, I only hate a few maps: Karkand, Wake, Kubra and Oman. I play anything else - especially PLA maps, EF and AF. Oh, and Gator. Although, so long as its not Karkand, then Ill probably play it. I actually havent played the map since May 2006… What can I say, Im unique
I'm now a member of the BF2s Wiki Team, joining em on 18th Feb 07!
