User blog comment:Momentum07/Retiree dropping by, includes recent minirant/@comment-1032031-20110414014627

Thanks guys, I'm going to have to really apologize for the blabber-filled minirant, it was an undesirable mix of tiredness and pent-up anger from a biased view. I really wish I can stay for an extended amount of time, but it looks like you guys have everything covered.

The reason why I ended up in bad games is probably because I've randomly joined a public channel where the opposing teams had more experienced players, to the point where they get start blaming an old newb with an L96+M92FS when they get caught off guard. It happens, even when I was still active back in '09. I just felt very unwelcomed after seeing a complete dominance of NX users that have kept up with the times, maybe if I had lowered my KDR to fit into the recreation channels, but my computer has put a serious handicap on me.

Words fail to describe my want to play this game "properly" again. My new laptop strangely has a worse tolerance to downloaded games than my old one, but it was expected since it is a cheap Gateway, more regrets on buying without knowledge >_>

I've joined dozens of games within the short time period that I had it back on, and I admit, there were good players that didn't have to own three permanent power weapons to be good, but they were in the shadows of the more flashy players and their ridiculous 5+ KDR's. OPK was still rampant, and the users weren't kicked off because no teammate wanted to kick him off, which pissed me off the most.

Anyways, summer is coming closer, and you'll never know if I can find a way to rejoin. No guarantees, but if everything goes properly, I'll come back and (one again) lend a hand to this prospering wiki.

It's funny how people don't complain about NX users demolishing everything with their Super 90's/AA-12's, but when I nail a trio of baddies with a Saiga-12, everyone begins to want me out of the game. Not cool ._.
