I am so irresponsible...............

I actually come home from the job and not do what I should be doing to play this game!

Then again, I'm single and nobody tells me different.

What things you ask......

Laundry, cleaning, food shopping....... Crap..... my fridge's compressor broke last month and havent even scheduled a replacement yet.  Who needs to eat when they can stuff some Twinkies in their flight suit and eat while flying?  Plus with a cold winter coming to NYC........ Do I really need a fridge?  I have a ledge, that works just as well!

Enjoy it while you can Bro. I vaugely remember those days, now a days, you can see me break away from someones six to Alt-X so I can dodge the Wife ack and change a diaper. Thats when I finally get the honey do's done. Besides, In NYC you can walk to 20 places for dinner, and have 200 deliver. Who needs a refridgerator at all?

Havent been able to play for more than 20 minutes since april 08 because of vista. Game runs fine until about 20 min in then my variance starts looking like the rockies. Cant find a fix and have all but cancelled my account. Maybe I can get back in someday.

I tried to play on a friends vista last week, the game ran with 120fps but the connection was as you say warpy. No matter what i disabled or closed down in the background i couldnt get a flat line.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

First 3 fights are a joke..  Mostly hordes desperate for kills apparently...
Been going to the MW arena recently to partially alleviate that...  But still...Not as fun as it was over a year and a
half ago...  Is it me or what?

i noticed that too. i think its just all the new members to the game jumping in on good fights hoping to get a kill, and others just do the same thinking, "Hey! he can do it, so can I!" I may be wrong, but thats just what I think. anyway, back to OP, what drags me away from fly time is life in general, and a new game i started back up. i havnt had much sit down time past week, so i havnt docked much fly time period this week.
