Well I am 46, and have three kids, and like everyone else my time is
limited.
I am, I can say with some level of modesty, a pretty good player. I
haven't mastered flying, I rarely gun in a helo. So I am a ground
pounder, who like armour too. I'm a second lt. (Myhopesanddreams).
I too leave a server if it isn't balanced. I don't mind being
mincemeat, but if all the good players are on one side, and all the
poor ones on another, it isn't really a game, its a points grabbing
exercise.
Some days I rock. Recently I've had a few games where my k/d has been
2/1. And as soon as the next game, on the same map with the same
players, I've gone down to 1/2.
I've even done this on servers where I am playing with a community
(bf2player.com members) of people I know.
Sometimes you just have to take a break.
