It's quite a well known fact in the industry that the average playing lifespan of players is 3-4 years, and by that i mean the time from when they buy all their own gear and become "a serious player" to the time when they're "retiring from paintball so everything must go sale ", of course it's not all players, but i bet every player who's been playing for more than 5 years can think of dozens of people who appeared and played for a couple of years then just dissapeared, if you think i'm wrong just look at the classifieds and the FB for sale pages and count up how many " i'm quitting so every thing must go" posts there are.
