A confession.
« on: November 15, 2013, 12:58:50 PM »
Well in about late 2008 early 2009 I started my first account here in AH and during then it was nothing more than just another flight sim to me. I didn't know anyone didn't have a squad or know what 200 was. I just flew around getting killed more than killing  :lol.

Well this day 4 years ago I lost my too close friends to a man one called their father and the other step father. I was in 9th grade. I often contemplated taking my own life because I didn't know what to do with the loss of my friends. The part was nobody knows why he did what he did.. W
Andy 41 Sean 26 me 30

What Aces High did to me was bring me to a place where I would forget about the real world behind me. In aces high I had no worries and I had lots of fun. Aces High also brought me to a group of awesome people who having the privilege to talking to and playing with is just awesome. When I was playing Aces High I was happy I didn't have bad thoughts. As I played more I joined squads and me always being the young one I had lots of learning. I matured fairly quick for young I was. I felt a sense of 'family' when flying with my squads (Rowdy Ones, The Few, Top Gun, and Blue Knights) that they would be there to talk and help me through anything!

I can't express how great of a community Aces High is.  :salute

Thank you Hitech Creations Crew, and everyone else who makes this game what it is today.  :cheers:

They will be.  Very important to remember that, especially during difficult times.

Wow, Joachim.  I never would have guessed.

We rarely ever know the story behind the personalities here. Some knob slobberers here come to this game and talk watermelon to anyone and everyone for how they fly or behave without considering the possibility there are devastating problems affecting those people. Personal loss like yours, handicaps and age, young or old.

I think we have all been guilty of it at times but some of the more obnoxious personalities take it to an inexcusable extreme.

I'm glad you hung in there and glad you told your story Joachim. I think there is an extremely valuable reality check in it.

<SALUTE>   <--- biggest salute I've ever offered.

:(

Sad thing is he showed me the gun just 2 weeks before because he knew I liked to go hunting and to the range once in a while and we talked about it. It was a 357 s&w. And the thing that broke me the most is that I knew where it was in the house. To think if I took it I could have stopped it.

When my wife got cancer I talked to a few people on here, it brought me out of a spiral death trap - sadly I tried to get back to Aces but simply can't, I hope in the future I can.

Thanks again Del, Corky and the other 38 drivers I spoke with, especially 367th.

/as for my sticks, they are still packed up and I dunno if I will be back
