No. It's not a joke. This is how I truly feel.
I know it must have been a burned of relief to some that I haven't been in the forums for a while. But, since the registration thing started, I have been in a real RC funk too this winter. I was actually putting serious thought of quitting the hobby for good. I suppose I have lost a bit of the passion. Besides a bad season to fly in, I haven't wanted to fly at all with what seems that the hole United States wants to categorize us as creeps or outlaws. The thought of having to look over my shoulder for people trying to attack me just for enjoying my hobby, just drains my spirits.
No this is not an April fools joke. This is how i truly feel. I'm about done with it.
