Members Ssnake Posted January 12, 2013 Members Share Posted January 12, 2013 It sounds funny while you dream about it and the first ten times when you hear it. But you're not going to hear it ten times. You're going to hear it for years. Believe me, neutral tone and language is much better in the long run. A bit dull, yes, but there simply is no way to implement a sufficiently large repertoire of variations in order to make it appear genuinely life-like. Expletives and heavy accent without variation will soon go on everybody's nerves.I know, this is all meant in jest. But there IS a serious background to it, and a reason why we abstained from these humorous elements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See that thur fockin' big thing over thur tha luks like those Pee Es En Ai Land Rovers?" "Aye?" "Fockin' knock 'is ballaix in!" "No Baller!" Like wise with the "officer's RP" accent. "Guh-nah! Feen! Tank!" "On!" "Figheur!" BANG! "Tarhgheet, Stoorp! I Sayh Ghoood Shoo-ting, What!" :biggrin: (need to say this at twice the speed of reading to get zee proper effect.) But then as Ssnake says, it gets old very quickly. (Crusty I believe has properly hammed it up as the loader. ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickMow Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 :biggrin: LOL Brilliant, You need a representative from Scotland though, my old Driver, Jock B.

Never understood a word he said, made worse by the Clansman harness, lot of F's involved if I remember.Scottish dialogue - or certainly Glaswegian dialogue - consists mostly of F and C words interspersed with a limited selection of others, the majority of which are unintelligble. I speak as someone who used to live for two weeks per month on an offshore oil rig in the North Sea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjay Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 As you will know, I am attempting to introduce some civility, culture and style into UKA sessions by using the greeting 'Bon soir, mes amis'. Then I go and get a cup of coffee while the rumpus dies down and certain members are resucitated by the medic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Toffee nosed git's accent] My dear Sir, How dare you mention that most ungentlemanly of liquors, coffee, in the presence of the United Kingdom's Armoured outfit. In this organisation, we drink Tea. Dear sir, milk and no sugar. Surely as a former member of Her Majesty's Royal Air Force, you would recognise this standard? Narf.

Gibsonm Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Did TGIF today with this and feedback / questions: 1. The Loader needs to grow a pair. All I heard was a girlish whisper about "HEAT ready", not "HEAT READY!!!". 2. Also (this might be one for Irish) not sure why the Commander was giving me corrections when it was still a Gunner's shoot (i.e. I could see the target in my reticule). I was expecting "Add" or "Drop", not "Add 200" or "Drop 300" (I'm assuming those figures are fixed - not generated by the actual correction required)? Will drive around tonight and see if I can get all the responses. Appreciate the effort that went into it though (keeping the guys sober for one take, etc.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
