CS:S isn't BC2, you don't aim in front or above them.
It used to be that the hit boxes were so dire that you could aim a foot or so behind the model and hit every time but this has been improved slightly over the years.
Aim at the model.
Counter strike source = impossible to get back into?

Yeah, of course 
Because ArmA 2 is really well known for its fast paced game play. Your post makes no sense, for either game.

Still like it...it's the one of the few FPS where the guns/recoil actually feel realistic and the game is properly coded for PC.
Really!? I love Insurgency, its a brilliant modification. but if CSS is too frustrating, then Insurgency will drive you insane, a lot more skill is required in that game to play it properly
CSS can be competitive but it can also be fun, check out the different simple mods to slowly get back into it!
Find a good server which is chatty as this passes the no respawn on normal servers but don't forget their is a deathmatch mod which allows instand respawn.

The only thing I've noticed that has massively changed in games, is that people used to chat in-game to each other. In modern games, people just don't seem to do that at all for some reason, you barely get a response because you spawn and you are normally straight back into the action. Basically.. it's all designed for console gaming as that's the bigger market now 
For me TFC and CS:S where the last of the decent games as well. I wasn't heavily into CS at all, but I did enjoy playing it, even though it was difficult to start with. CS was excellent because you didn't need massively good hardware to play it and it look OK. Bear in mind though that CS was a community mod (kinda) and not originally a retail game.
I wouldn't find it hard to get back into CS I don't think, but I wouldn't waste hour's on it nowadays. Frankly, as much as I like the game mechanics of games like CS, I like to play games that are more graphically pleasing, and just take the hit of their flaws. I prefer games that can be played as a team though,
I find TF2 entertaining and pure fun, although much more annoying than TFC because it feels like less skill is needed, and I don't like all the stupid outfits lol, it's just completely pointless trash.
The other thing I don't like about modern games is that it often is a spam fest with people respawning instantly (or almost instantly) and chucking gren's indiscrimantly which just take's the skill out of gaming (like in COD). Grenade's used to be a skill, but hey it's in the game so gotta deal with it. (Much like I get sick of people whinging about 'noob tubes', when it's a real life weapon lol).
Anyway.... no CSS isn't impossible to get back into, it's just about having a little patience and getting out of the instant fix mentality. Your patience will be rewarded

About 3-4 years ago i used to play this game every day on the same server. I got to know the regulars and we all said "hi" to each other. And when we didnt see someone on there for a couple days we would be wondering where they were.
This was the only mp game that i got this from, unfortuantly the server has gone as others started to play other games.
Now i hardly play it but i stick to 1-2 servers again hoping that ill get the same thrill and attacthment i got on the old server
Did anyone here play on UKTrainingCamp?
Now i play on UKCSS, which i have to say is a very good server along with Doomys server.

UKCS, is probably one of the better servers to use, and one I mainly played on, until they added achievements...
