ddub, thank you for posting this, and to all youz older guys for adding to the thread. I'm 47, married and have a little girl who is 7. I have often wondered the ages of those who I play against. I have even asked for ages during games. (I think I feel kinda embarrased, cuz I'm so old and "playing" games.) When ppl actually do respond, it averages somewhere around 25 I think. I sometimes feel odd playing an online game as much as I do (Hell, I can play MOHAA/SH all day sometimes. It's addictive!)

I love playing MOHAA and SH, because I grew up with the stories and movies that were all about the 'Good War' (WW2). Damn, there's just something about it, ya know? I watch the History Channal all the freakin' time if there's anything about WW2. I think it (WW2) perfectly embodies the fight and struggle of good against evil, and the ultimate judgement that comes in the aftermath. (Obviously, the German ppl weren't evil, just thier leadership.)

I think now I'm at the point where I'd like to start using voice in Team games. Not sure if Roger Wilco is the best or if Team Speck (if that's the name of it. ) is the best. I think it would be great to be able to talk to a team mate and say things like, "There's a sniper in the Church tower, I'm on it", and then go and do it, all without having to type. That kinda kills it.

Sorry for this long thread, but it felt good to get this off my chest.
