I did a search, and didn't get anything on this. Perhaps it is my brain not functioning properly or something else of that nature. Never the less, this can just be an updated version. So, introduce yourself! And get to know the people who post on AO on a regular basis or just come passing through!

My name's Joe De Boer and I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I've been on AO for about a year or so now, and I can truly say that I'm honored to know fellas and chicks like the ones who come here to AO. I just got a Mag, finally. (ULE Mag) and it's Pimpiliscious.

I find myself in the chat on mIRC quite a bit, because like most other people here, I have nothing better to do with my free time. (Kidding) My name's PuReEviL in the chat, just like my name here, and that's about it.

So, if you're ever in the area of Grand Rapids, Michigan, call me in advance and I'll make time to show you around! Keep this thread going, yO.

I'm not sure, but there is probably something like this already on AO somewhere. Regardless, I'll play along anyway because on the oft chance a thread like this doesn't exist, it needs too.

My name is Andrew Sloan and I am a professional artist (fine art, illustration graphic design and web). I live in Lee's Summit, Missouri...a suburb of Kansas City. I've been a paintball player for eleven years now, and I have been an AO'er since 2002. I play front and Captain our team, Team Voodoo. We don't get to play as much as we'd like right now, but we still follow the sport and play when we can. I use a classic Automag at the moment, which belongs to my coverman. I had an ir3, but I had to sell it to cover some bills...so I am currently, technically, "markerless".

(which blows)

Yeah there is something like this on here and it has everyone's photos as well, it is pages, and pages of AO'ers.


Anyhoo, for those of you who don't know, I'm Heather and I have a sick fixation with grips, and I'm on a 12 set program. I haven't been sucessful staying on the wagon, I just can't seem to stop myself from making them ;)

I reside in RI, I have 3 children and a husband that puts up with my hobby. I play every once in a while.
I draw, paint, sculpt, engrave, carve, mold, cast, design, and make websites.

I collect and fix up markers as well, there is no such thing as a beatup marker!

Well, if you can't tell my name, shame on you. I live in Nashville, TN, have been playing paintball for like 5 or 6 years, and have been a member on AO for about 2 and a half years. Same with PBN, but I stopped posting there forever ago cause it's a bunch of crap. I'll be a freshman in College this year, and will be majoring in Engineering (mechanical I think). I have 2 mags and some parts for a cocker that I planned on making but now they're gonna be part of something better. I like to tinker very much on things. Currently in my junk collection are 3 squirrel cage fans (big ones, mind you), 2 hydraulic motors, 2 hydraulic valves, 10 weedeaters, 3 pushmower engines, 1 pushmower, and a riding lawnmower. That's just the highlights. Someday all that will be a hovercraft... or a battle bot... or some junk.

Hrmm... never really introduced myself in this forum :p

My name is Oliver, I'm an architect in Mexico City, I work in Industrial Real Estate. Not married, just dating some real cool chick. I've been P'ballin' for a while now (9 years) and as far as AO I've been here for about 1 year or so and the only memebers I know are Clare and Mankie. I play with a trix right now (which I luv) and play for Team RIO down here. Other things I do are going out for drinks (I'm a Rum guy), music, some forms of art, I draw comics now and then and I enjoy video games when having a hangover.

I don't play with my X-Mag anymore (in fact I'm selling it) but whenever some dude has problems with his mag, I allways volunteer to give me a shot at fixing it, which works... most fo the time. ;)

My name is Tom Barone, I live in Stamford, CT. I am currently a High School student. I haven't played paintball in months, but paintball is my major source of income. I do plan on playing agin before the summer is over at the field about a mile from my house, Paintball Madness. I've been into paintball for a year and a half, and posting on AO since I got ripped off by a member here in March. Right now I have two cockers and an angel, and plan on buying a mag in the very near future.

My name is Patrick Sheegog, I live in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and I've been playing for 4 years. I'm currently a student and will be going to a school in Laurinburg and near Pinehurst and I'll probably be majoring in Veterinary medicine. I bought an RT Pro about two months ago and have since then ULE'd it out and gotten a pipe for it along with a nice sized tank and gotten the team captain to make the trigger have an amazing feel to it compared to stock. It really has been a wonderful gun to work which is serving my back skills very well. Just joined a team about two months ago and since then have been working on my airball play to go to a tourny in the coming weeks. I also play DPB and other games when my friends dont drag me out to drink and would love to play with anyone of ya'll on there who plays. This is about my 5th post so I am pretty new to AO, but I like it very much alredy! :cheers:

Good thread.

I'm Ken of San Jose California, and I just recieved my Eagle Scout award :cool: . I have been in PB for about 2 years :confused: , and I have owned 3 mags :cool: . I no longer consider myself a paintball player, more of an "AO'er", I don't make efforts to play with other people, only when there are AO days with AO'ers! I am more interested in tinkering with different guns than the game itself. Anyways, that's all I can think of right now. Your turn :shooting:

O, and I own Dallara mag #19 :dance:

I have been on AO for almost 3 years, have loved every moment of it. Have been playing paintball for 6 years, I took a break for a couple of months, but couldnt stay out of the game. I make designer headbands and barrel covers, love doing it, I dont have to go out and get a part time job, like most of my friends do, because I make more money in a week then they do in a month :clap: .

Name's James Cryer. I live in Bryan, Texas, but for some reason, I find myself on the road alot, at the drop of a hat.

I've been playing for somewhere around 4-5 years, starting with a tippmann. I had the tippmann for about a year and a half, sold it and got a mag... Been playin with mags ever since.

Currently, what little finances I have are devoted to other things (like food), so I have no marker. :(

My name is Tanner Johnson. I am 16 years old and I live in Wisconsin. My interestes are computer software and hardware design, graphic design, oil painting, fixing things (paintball guns, computers, whatever) and most of all Paintball, which I have been playing for about 6 years now.

I own a Tippmann 98 custom, which is my first gun, and one of the loves of my life. My Emag will soon be here, so I guess I'll have to make room for one more.

Hello!

I usually hate these 'go around in a circle and tell us about yourself' things, but this one seems fun.

My name is Melissa (I'm not saying the last name 'cause it will be a target of ridicule), I'm 35 and live in Queens, NYC. My day job is as a database jockey at a large financial institution, income supplemented by freelance website work in the evenings and I'll be starting school again in a couple of weeks (kids, don't do what I did - finish college while you're young).

I've been playing for just over a year now, visiting AO for about the same amount of time. I play with the NY Stud Squad, usually at PBX Battlezone (indoor) or Knightbreed (outdoor) and occasionally at Strategy Plus in CT.

Hi, my name is Rob Lewis. I'm 27 and I live in Dallas, Tx. I work for a custom cabinet business as the CNC machine programmer and designer. It's the best job ever! I have been playing paintball for about 7 years now. Currently I use a 2k+ custom made autococker and I have a (sometimes functioning) LED Angel. I am getting married this year on October 9th to the most beautiful woman in the world her name is Emily (she goes by Dee to all of her friends). Paintball makes me happy for the hours every weekend I play and she makes me happy the rest of the time.

I have three brothers and two of them plus me and my Dad even all love to play at the Paintball Factory in Garland. So long for now... :headbang:

Hmm... surprisingly, don't think I've ever done this.

Name's Ryan Kelly (w00t Irish), I'll be 18 in a couple months. Shot a 98 for around 2 years, and just picked up a green PTP micro e-mag within the past few months. Got the hotness tl-63 trigger, warp, halo, freak... outside of paintball, I'm on my high school's crew team (that's ROWING, in those big-arse boats with like 8 people, for all of you not in the know), I'll be graduating at the end of this year and then it's off to college somewhere, where I fear my paintballing days may end for a while. :(

Until then, I'll keep enjoying paintball and AO!!

My name is Andrew Fultz. I'm 15, almost 16, and live in Lewistown, PA. My interests, besides paintball, are computer games and movies. I don't have an actual job, but I sell things on ebay and it's more than enough for paintball every weekend and a new gun or gear once in awhile. I just started paintball under a year ago but it has interested me for several years. I play just about every weekend so i've advanced in skill quite quickly. I hope to play in some tournments next year. As far as my history with mags goes, I bought a minimag 3 months ago and the rest is history. Shortly after, I started building an RT Pro and I broke down and bought an E-Mag last month. Now I know quite a bit about the guns and I can usually help people on the tech forum.

i built my own mag and sniper 2, and shoot a fully upped b2k3. i prefer pump play though and consider my sniper my primary. i also like to take my pgp for a spin from time to time.
i also own a mac-1 mk 2 anihilater...i love that gun!

i'm an nppl ref and did the tampa event as well as the n.c.p.a. event at disney. also played rookie 5 man at world cup '03...we got rolled but had a blast. hoping to ref the '04 cup and the iapte event also. i'm not a tourney class player, so i try to make my contribution to the game through reffing.

my best friends in the world i met playing paintball, i love this game and have made some great connections here on ao which i have been a member of since november '02.

Hola fellas and gals!

I'm Sean Eddy and I live in Roseville, California. I'm 16, and will be 17 in March and I'm a sophmore at Woodcreek High School. Been playing paintball for about 3 years and I currently have a job at a local feild. I like to play roller hockey when I'm not ballin(if I got time). I love music. Mostly Rock, Metal, Death metal, etc...It's my life, along with paintball.

I dont really remember when I joined AO, maybe a month before I got my first mag, which , sorry to say, I no longer have. No fear, I have every intent on picking another one up :D . I love AO very much, too much, probably why I'm single ;). I have yet to attend an AO meet. If anyone travels through Sacremento or other local areas, make sure you give me a holla and we can go ballin.

Good hearin about some of the familiar faces of AO. Keep em comin!

(I have yet to follow Clare around an AO meet) :bounce:

Other interests: Can be found on my website. I am going back to play on the computer now... it's my day off.

Statement: I like it here. Come out to California and meet the AO NorCal Group. I find that those are the games I look forward to the most. I also have a keen interest in making the AGD markers shoot very fast (I never said anything about tournament legality).

I am currently looking for all the Shocktech SFL's that AO can find. I am listing them on my site as you can see here (http://www.zakvetter.com/Pages/Paintball/Gallery/sfl_e-mags/page1.html). Seen any lately?

Well.....guess I'm in.....

I'm Jay,age 35, married but seperated.I played my first game of Pball sometime in the late 80's,couldn't tell you 'exactly' when it was.Probably a Sunday if that helps. :)

Played on and off for a while but didn't get to serious about it till I had some business dealings bring me back in about 8 yrs ago or so.Was still a 'second' job till fairly recently,probably had something to do with falling on my head from a 2 story building....can't say for sure....

Therefore......

My full time job is paintball. Product development and R&D for a few major manufacturers(now all mostly owned by the same corporation ;)) as well as production manager and lead tech for a local Paintball and Military Training products manufacturer.

Play most weekends but not as many as I would like.I have no idea how many paintball guns I have,mostly older stuff,prototypes and out of production stuff,and various other paintball related items.

Lately I've been shooting an Alias Intimidator but an Xmag is a close second. I can,however, be seen shooting almost anything on any given day. :D

That enuff? I'm an Italian Ex-New Yorker so I could definately keep going.......

Hey all. I'm Azaam Samad, from San Diego. Been playing for about 4 years. Currently shoot a Roguemag, with my dying Impulse serving as backup. I also own an ACI Hornet, an Eforce Pirhana STS, and a Minimag. I use a Dye Throttle tank on all (minus the Hornet, which uses a 9oz CO2 tank). I'm looking to buy a B2k4 with PDS before the school year.

I'm 18 this November 27th, and I'm going to be a Senior at Torrey Pines High School this coming school year.

I'm Joshua D. Silverman, many know me as "Jew" or "Jew2X" I'm the Assistant Editor of Paintball 2Xtremes Magazine, the leading magazine of paintball sports in the world, and Crossfire Paintball Magazine. I also help run our website, www.pb2x.com and am the Sponsorship Coordinator and Media Liaison for the Carolina Field Owners Association, the world's largest five-man tournament paintball league.

I've been shooting Automags since I was able to afford one, back in 1994/95, and since then I've owned three Mags, two RT's, an EMag, an XMag, a Sydarm and a Tac-One. I've been playing paintball since 1993 and I'm from Stafford, Virginia, near Fredericksburg. I live, sleep, eat and breathe paintball, and in so-doing I grovel in unworthiness at the feet of Tom Kaye :hail: for all the great things he's done for our sport. I love him like a father and continue to shoot his products today not because I have to (I could shoot anything) but because I WANT to. He and his are the best and I love being a part of the Airgun Designs and AO family.

My co-workers call me "Jeff", or "Mr Perrault", my close friends call me "Jeffy".

I live, work and play in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada). Before that in St. John's Newfoundland, and was raised in Happy Valley (no joke). Besides paintball, I play ultimate (frisbee), and disc golf.

I was 21 when I played my first game of paintball around Christmas 1990, at -35. With Nelspots. It didn't work very well, but we tried again in May '91. I haven't looked back. I've played in five Canadian provinces and two US states, at over two dozen fields. I played about twenty small tourneys in the 1990's, my last and biggest being Skyball 2000. I played my first Big Game in NY in 1994, and was hooked. Big games and scenarios are my favourites (my photo is in the "Complete Guide to Paintball", even :) ).

I have a 68 Classic, but it only comes out for big games. All my rec play is done with my Sniper2.

SUp guys and gals,

I tend to go by the name Patrick Crowley, I live in St. louis Missouri, I live in 2 different house cause my parents are divorced. I play hockey, I'm the goalie, and now I'm a junior and I hope to make Varsity, but there is a really good freshman goalie... Oh well, I play for fun so its not a huge deal for me, at any rate I pwn JV :)

I am fairly fit, I need to lose some weight and get some more muscle but almost everyone needs to too lol. I own a Tribal Mephisto 2.2 thats ace'd and all the good stuff, I also have a Tribal Twister 2.2 that needs some work and parts, and also I'm looking to buy a Phantom. I also have a 2k2 angel lcd, but I like to try new things so I'm trying to sell/trade it for either a phantom or something different. I love tribals, and tinkering with markers. I haven't had a chance to get out play much, but I hope to change that.

I've been into paintball for about a year and a half, I don't really remember when I stated lol. I've been at Ao for a year maybe :confused: I don't know. I hang out at the tribal/evil forums on PBN, and I also I post over at PBR.

Hey folks,

My name is Jacob, and I have been playing for seven years now. I began in the woods but soon learned about sup'air during my senior year in high school. I now play on an NCPA circuit team "Element." We're just getting started, but we're already showing promise. I think we'll be able to keep a top-five position in the local tournaments around my school in upstate New York.

As for AOers that I know, Torbo and ChunkDaddy are friends of mine, as I play with them at HeadRush (Syracuse, NY). I can tell you that these are two cool guys. I'd love to get to play at an AO game, and if there is one in New York, I'll be sure to make it!

I don't have any cool pictures of myself like Torbo; however, I do have a video of a scrimmage that my team played against "Team Threat."

I'm the kid in blue. Note my superb communicative skills and innovative way of diving behind no cover at all! You don't have to tell me - it's impressive! :p :tard:

My name is Lidio, I live in San Jose California. I'm a Senior in high school. I don't really play paintball anymore but when I did I was a back player with a custom built cocker. Started playing in 2000, stopped last year. I'm a bad kid, I smoke and drink with my buddies and screw around with my girlfriend at middle schools at night. :p Anyways, I think its safe to say I'm a pretty nice guy, some think im intimidating, but I'm really not. When u get to know me, I'm like a big retarded teddy bear :tard:
