So what's this 5punk stuff all about then?
Well, one day Woo Elephant Yeah decided it would be a good idea to get like minded b3tans' (b3ta.com) to all play online games together. Since then there's been no looking back, and 5punk has now turned into an active online gaming community for all ages and types of people. I took over in May 2007 and hope to continue to grow the site whilst keeping it in the spirit of what WEY started.
You do not have to be a member of b3ta to join 5punk, as it's an open gaming community, it's just that b3ta is historically a root for people to come here.

What do I have to do to join 5punk?
Quite simple really, just download/install xfire (xfire.com) and then update your 5punk forum profile with your xfire user name.
Simply visit http://www.xfire.com/clans/5punk/ and add yourself to the list to instantly have every other 5punker appear within Xfire.

Are you a clan based site?
Nope, not at all, we're just a bunch of like minded gamers who enjoy playing online games together and having a laugh.

How can I help 5punk out?
Well if you have friends who enjoy online gaming, then please recommend us, or if you see a post on the b3ta/4rthur boards related to gaming, then please post a message about 5punk.
Please feel free to link to us with one of the following images :
For use on a light background For use on a dark background Mini banner link
There is also a donation page for those of you feeling generous, as our dedicated game servers are run through donations from 5punkers.
It's not compulsory, but every little helps.

Metro 2033 Update Released
Author: Valve Valve
Category: Valve news update Valve news update
Publish Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:51:00 -0700

The ‘Ranger Pack’ DLC for Metro 2033 is now available to download. The Ranger Pack adds new weapons, nine new Steam Achievements and the deadly ‘Ranger Mode’ game rules.

In standard Ranger Mode, ammo is dramatically reduced and all weapons and attacks cause more damage. Your foes are deadlier than ever – but then, so are you...

‘Ranger Hardcore’ adds an additional challenge as the HUD is totally removed, creating the most immersive Metro 2033 experience yet.

Rise to the challenge with two new weapons – the Heavy Automatic Shotgun, and the Volt Driver, Miller’s signature gun.

The Ranger Pack is offered as a free download to all Steam users.

After a prolonged absence, I'm going to to by best to get back into the 5punky swing of things!

I've been a bit busy over the last year or two with work, getting married, and getting a house. I can't believe I allowed myself to get so far out of the loop, but I'm working to change that!Yarrrrr

How is everyone? Smile

Been along time coming .... it is now here.

JockGit and Winestorm cordially invite all 5punkers to the Cassa del Jock in Blackpool

This event will take place over the Halloween weekend, costume is compulsary for when we hit the pubs.

This year it has been suggested we do the waterpark instead of the Pleasure Beach but the majority will decide.

State whether your coming on the Scheduler as usual

Breakfast, as usual will be supplied... W00t

Geekfood: The Site

Well following on from a number of conversations over recent weeks, we* have done gone and made a Geekfood blog! It's a little light on content just now, but will hopefully continue to grow at a steady rate as and when we cook stuff and remember to take photos of it.

The aim isn't to detract from the 5punky Geekfood thread, but it's a bit unwieldy for searching or browsing, and a blog format is something I personally find easier to use for storing and referencing recipes.

Any suggestions for a logo/favicon? It's all a little bare just now.



*Mr Green and Berk really, I turned up late to the party.

Alternate histories

Inspired by a thread on the World of Tanks forum into how variations would have affected WWII. Since that's inevitably full of people bleating about how their country would have won because they're the best, I'd rather read about 5punky opinions on it. Some food for thought then (note, my historical knowledge is only really detailed for the second world war) ;

If Rome didn't fall.
If William the Conquorer had stayed in France
If Napoleon had won at Waterloo
If Archduke Ferdinand hadn't been assassinated
If the US hadn't joined the First World War
If Russia hadn't had a revolution during the First World War
If Spain hadn't had a civil war, or if Franco had won before the outbreak of WWII
If Britain had allied with the Nazis (like Mosely wanted, and I believe the Germans wanted)
If we had lost the Battle of Britain
If the US hadn't supported Britain/Russia
If the Japanese hadn't bombed Pearl Harbour
If the invasion of Europe had been delayed
If Operation Market Garden had been a success
If the Americans had retreated to regroup in the Ardennes
If the Russians had carried on marching through Europe against the Allies
If the US never dropped atomic bombs

I think that's enough to go on. We could probably go into Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, the Falklands, Afghanistan and Iraq, but I'm fed up of thinking up scenarios now.
