We All Got to Start Somewhere

Day 2779
Okay, this is my first article. I guess i'll start from here. Who knows where this path will lead. Thanks to RaccoonGoon, he helped me catch this newspaper from the font of Avernus
😃.
Here's my story.
I'm newb, my birth day is Jun 26, 2015 (2775 in-game calendar), 5 days old.
2775. On the first minute, i don't know exactly what i'm trying to accompalish. Red spot on my left screen caught my attention, it was message and alerts page, i opened my very first message came from our current CP, Trekker Tlumac, it basically a to-do list for the newb on the first day. Newspaper from Departement of Interior is surely fascinating. Their posts is about how and where to get free supplies.
I registered an account on forum and started reading about this and that. The most interesting topic is about politics; some people try to ban someone, Wooky Jack campaign on liberating eUSA, CP race between BB and Tb, excited. The most shocking thread was disbandment of USAF proposal. I just joined today and somebody want to get rid it, i was like "What the heck?".
Serbs, there's lot of question about this on my mind til now.
Missions. "Well, i should finish it ASAP". The first five missions was easy, teaching the basic of the game. I was avoiding fight because it depletes my energy so fast. Then comes "Joining the army", missions states that i must join a military unit. I opened each military unit page of top 5 MU. My choice went to United States Army Force and Easy Company. I sent my application right away and then joined USAF MU in game. That made me recruits of the MU. 10 kills and private rank is needed to become a member. So i headed to War page, start kicking ass. My requirements is fulfilled, and then i was the new member of USAF MU.
2776. Still chasing mission. My invitation to Easy Company and invitation to USAF Flight Training arrived. Gnilraps's article showed on homepage, "It's Gotta Be EZC". 100% EZC Propaganda. You grabbed me Gnilraps. I opened my message alerts page, another invitation came. it was from VMA-214 The Black Sheep. But sorry, i've made up my mind, can't fight my intuition. I resigned from USAF and joined EZC.
2777. Folks in EZC welcomed me. That felt great. I registered an account on EZC Forum and i began to explore the unknown. I stumbled upon Easy Company Military Fitness Academy. As for now, the article contain 4 parts. First part taught me about military, war, battlefield, fighting. Second is about spending gold in eRep, gold should be invested in training ground first it said, well my choice saving up the gold was right, so i invested my first 20 gold to training ground. If i do calculation, i should get my medal in 22 days. Third part lesson : "Experience Level has absolutely no bearing on your battle damage" "Since your effectiveness on the battlefield will be measured against other players of similar Experience, it makes sense to have relatively high strength (and to a lesser extent rank) and relatively low experience." lesson learned, i decided to not fighting excessively, fighting just to fill the DO. The last part is like DoE article.
2778. I tried every free supply program that i'm eligible to. I made a checklist about it, since only one request per day, keeping me away from getting disqualified. So far, Question of the Day from Departement of Education and Bewbs 4 Newbs proved them self. They gave me free supply.
2779. This day is truly a great day. It was started when i post a random thought about the Soldiers of Fortune on EZC shout wall. Here's the recap.
I'm speechless.
Everybody has their story to tell

Man, I feel like I done something good.
Welcome to the game. I'm glad you're having fun in the early going. That's one of the hardest parts for new players at first, but the key is finding people you like to hang out with and something you like to do. If you can just do that, you're golden.
One thing about training grounds though: there's a monthly two-day 45% off sale on upgrades that comes around (guess we should probably put that on the Military Fitness Academy too), so in the future, you should probably hold off on TG upgrades until that comes around.
Nonetheless, this is a good article and a show of how new folks can still come to this game and have fun.
