I started out playing on recondo school and TAC on won

yea me to
Lets see. OMG, that was a long time ago. I started about 3 years ago. I was playing DC a lot, then Sam and I started downloading Half-Life mods (because we had All Seeing Eye and got interested). We kept playing DC for a bit, then a little WC3, ok alot , but eventully came back to FireArms and played it regulary.Or something like that, but it was awhile ago.
I was playing Pre HL engine... i am OLD SK00L

I've been playing since World War II started, That was a long time ago.

I played on FT alot, they didn't really like LLRP so I didn't tend to play there :D

 

I actually tried out and lost the spot to two guys that don't even play anymore.

 

Then I came across TA, and I actually thought you guys were kind of wierd. But I played more often and I absolutely loved it. Sent in an application (back when it was on the boards OLOLO!) and then a few days before or after Christmas (can't remember which, I think I still have the Email though... :p )

2002!!! That's oldschool. Remember that Mac?

<----- 2.8i've missed a lot of the classic stuff, like water at durandal and akimbo uzis :cry:
All I remember is that when I first played FA the Aug was wildly popular and very powerful, and the map that I first played was the one with the Menkey...Then I didn't play for months and then started playing again about one and a half years ago I think... and it's been off and on ever since! :D Becca
the map that I first played was the one with the Menkey...

Ummm, one thing Becca, most all the maps have a menkey on them somewhere.
mexico was the map where you captured the menkey And Hi Becca long time no see :D :p
2.65. i had a big hiatus around when 2.8 came out. came back probaly around january. now i quit FA :D *new project for 2.5 lovers* convert all 2.9 models and sounds to 2.5, then make a 24/7 server with smart marinebot. that would get me to play occasionally :p

wha....?

Long friggin quote ahead, I warned you

 

I started playing FA when it first came out, a friend of mine told me about it. I was actually playing it while I was still in high school, so I'd gather around 5 + years now actively playing(I graduated from high school in 1999 and I am 23 years old now)

 

I started playing on the TA server often in 2.6, mainly though I was on TDS and The Jungle (and I didn't like banned weapons)
