My answer is simple: because I live here... :)

Was wondering what your reasons were.

I used to go to the Volkswagen owners group forum (www.vwvortex.com) all the time, but the last time I was on there was back in August, before I joined here. I havent been there since!!! This forum is really the best one I have had the chance to be a member of. I think it has to do with the people here, and also the small size. The vortex was so huge that you post something and within 15 minutes its on page 2. No point. Plus, most of the people were just not reliabel for info. I come here for information exchange, for a good laugh and to just shoot the breeze with my fellow mag owners. :p

I bought my mag back at the beginning of the year and wanted to learn as much about it as I could. This place has been a wonderful source of information for me, and everyone is so darn nice....:)

If Tom didn't pay me such an enormous salary just to be a moderator, I'd probably go back to Spyder.com.

The two Emags with Warp and HALOs was just a bribe to keep Sarah as a member too.........

I hate to sound cheesy as heck..but AO just feels like the internet equivalent of the "Cheers" bar...i was a former cocker owner, was unhappy with it (even with the WGP swing trigger) got my minimag in a trade..found this place..and i've never left..i mean..i work and sleep and i read the AO forums..it may seems pretty boring to some..but i just view all of you out there as family..we talk and sometimes we disagree but we all love mags and this is just our place to show it..and i like that...

How did I find this place? I have no idea. I just remember I had my raptor and felt that I wanted somthing better. I saw the mag and heard the good things about it and somehow found this forum. I came here hung out, hoping some day to get a mag... waited almost a year after saving up to get a mag... I got a cocker :) but I still like mags and all. I am prolly not gonna leave even though I have a cocker because everyone here is so helpful, knowledgable, and caring. It is like a little community where everyone knows your name*begins to sing the theme song to Cheers...*. I hope that this place never goes out for good or everyone will lose alot of friends. Also this forum helped me form my team.

I found this site when I tried to find an automags forum. First I typed automags.com, i got some weird stuff. Then I typed automags.net, I can't remember what I got. Then I typed automags.org and now I'm here.

for myself, i felt that i was missing something in the R&D of AGD. had no clue about the blade triggers and the intelliframes and all the other goodies that Uncle Tom brings out for Mag users in the world. there are many questions that i do not have the answers for. though i may know alot about Mags, i do know that i can always learn more about them.

besides, its a fresh breath of air to know that the people in the forum all know that you can run a Mag on co2 with no problems and the person pulling the trigger chops the paint, not the gun. those are the 2 biggest things that can get me started. you want an arguement from me? say those two things, and i will be down your throat.

though i don't own an Automag anymore, i concider myself very expirienced with them. Sometimes i try to help out abit in the tech fourms. Mainly because this is a very good forum and very orginized.

LOL Flambo!:D
I first came here when Andy owned the site, and I found it by going to www.askjeeves.com and typing in automags, and it came up with this site. I had no idea what all of the info was about because I owned a tippman. Then I bought mine and have been satisfied ever since.
I don't know why i keep coming back though, you guys are all buttheads. :p

I was on the rec.sport.paintball newsgroup and Big-T mentioned this site to another new mag owner. I thought it sounded interesting and I have never left. I have learned alot about my mag here and I am now even happier that I bought a mag instead of something else. The only problem I have now is that I can't stop buying stuff for my mag(see my sig line) and my ebay addiction just netted me a minimag too, it should be here next week I hope.

Well, I showed up here around a year ago (last january, I think) when I was trying to decide what kind of new gun I wanted. Cocker, Mag, I had no idea.

Anyway, I came in here, surfed around, hit the IRC chat, and I think Rob told me he'd mount my ear if I bought a cocker. So I got my mag :)

Anyway, this place is and continues to be the best place for information on paintball on the web, not just for mags, but for everything. Its like a Warpig social club. :) We just steal all Bill's info anyway, so I can get it all in one place (Although I do admit I go to warpig all the time anyway to see if anything cool is floating around there that hasn't been discovered yet).

Anyway, now it's too late to leave, I'm stuck here.

Oh, and FREE STUFF :) I've got stickers, plastic nubbins, a tshirt, and a sweatshirt. And because I found this place my buddy Jeff now how a free RT Pro. Free stuff is good :)

Oh, lastly, you meet some great people to play with (Tunaman, MagDog68, UDTSEAL, BigZamboni, Hasty8, and others)
