Not a kid anymore, lol now a late thirty’s kind of guy. This community was one of a kind. I hope a few of you older players remember me. I have continued to be quiet and peek in from time to time.
I went over the website of players that have passed and couldn’t hold tears back. So many great shared experiences and friendships.
I have typed a few of these out and deleted but I’ll just let this fly.
Ps: Glad I didn’t post a few novels of text. Could write a book as I came in young at 17 or 18 in 2003 during the late great merge of players from AW and WB. Could cut the tension with a knife. I knew my place, I was a boy amongst real men. Who wanted to fly with a 18 year old? Lol I didn’t even at that age. Pay to play….<S> ASSASINS my first squad. BigMax <S> Claim Jumpers, The Damned, 412th and all of you <S>
If you don’t know me look up my name in search, I think batfink posted a vid which I still hold as the highest compliment I received gaming. In those times they were few and far to come by.
Here is a great link to how this all started…. If you gave the time.
