Airsoft IS different now than compared to a few years ago, I think Skruface, Scarecrow, Bravo, etc. summed it up pretty nicely.

What can I say? I guess I can say.... I miss playing with people like:
- Tru (yes, OMG, he used to play!)
- Quaestor
- Tomalok
- Hype
- ILLusion
Wow, I made the list at #2 after Tru? I'm so moved! I miss you too Peter!!!

BTW, this thread has convinced me to quit too. I feel like moving to California. I wonder if they have any airsoft fields there.

this thread has convinced me that this is a thread. I didn't know what it was at first. Letters turning into words with punctuation making up sentences, the whole thing was just scary at first.

Seriously though people grow change and evolve. Yep there are new players out there and I hardly know most of the old players. Wish I did cuz you get some real cool stories. On the subjects of older players gone MIA where's our friend FRANKLIN HA? I know a few people who owe him something.
Hope to meet every one some day. especialy you SCARECROW!

I know we already met but it was my only wizard of Oz refrence.

Sigh, and I didn't even get an honourable mention.

Wah.

I'm going to go listen to Linkin Park.

On a more serious note, I've fallen out of active Airsofting less because of the change in the community, but more because of changes in my personal life. As I get older, my priorities change, my time becomes more valuable, and Airsoft as both a hobby and as an activity no longer commands the commitment I can garner to make it worthwhile.

I got into Airsoft at just the right time - after finishing my undergraduate degree and beginning my professional studies. It was a great way for me to mingle with friends, exercise my mental acuity beyond academics, together with a healthy dose of immaturity, boisterousness, and simulation combat.

I too, reminisce with Phalanix upon the days at FR, Wasaga, London, Area 51 and Deadlands. The fact, however, that an enjoyable gaming day requires a significant time investment has pushed the cost-benefit balance into less encouraging territory and is now entirely unconvincing for me. Although I admit that logistics for Airsoft gaming hasn't changed, my perception of time has. If only there were a way to play conveniently and flexibly; when such a solution is available, I'll certainly dig up my old gear and join the party.

Phalanix / Peter - I think the person you refer is named Samson. Octane94, Kato, and Samson were always together. Samson used a PSG-1, if I recall correctly.

Did Meta ever assemble that 'old-timers' game?

I can't believe the picture actually says "TRU" on the top right corner. Like, wow.
