wasrad 42 Posted May 24, 2012 I have noticed in the forums and in game people have been saying "Leeroy Enfield"Stop it. It is not "leeroy", as the name comes from James Paris Lee who designed the rifle at Royal Small Arms Factory London Borough of Enfield.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee-Enfieldhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Paris_LeeThis is not WoW. There is no leeroy. Cut that crap out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

walrus2517 27 Posted May 24, 2012 Heh, this reminds me of the poster that got so mad because people were using "clips" and "magazines" interchangeably. If you really want to stop it I think you'd be better off just correcting people as you see it versus creating an entire post about it.I think the military buffs that made up the pre-Day Z Arma crowd need to accept that a bunch of newbies are coming in to kill zombies, not get a history lesson.
