Okay, here's the thing. One thing I've noticed alot of is that users here seem to be here for a vast variety of reasons. When I first logged on, I thought, "this must be a place where everyone that loves mags hangs out". But one thing I've noticed lately is that there seems to be a large contingency of former mag users that fell in love with ions or guys that think mags are "passe". So, here's a poll:

Please respond to the poll if you're going to post... :nono:

I bought my first mag 5 years ago and started coming here with a diffrent name then, I left paintball for a couple years and when I decided to come back this was the first place I came to. I've owned 5 mags, have 2 now, and as of last week I Just bought my first 2 non mag guns, an autococker and a spyder for project guns.

i dont own a mag and as my name states i like spyders but i do like mags i used to not but now i do because i came here and found out wut they r and now i think that they r cool and if i get a lot of money i plan on buying an e-mag and pimping it out. and if ur wondering why i came to this wonderful sight its because i was bored one day and came here to find stuff out about paintball and guess wut... i became hooked and now i cant leave :)

I use to own two mags, but have sold one and currently parting out the other. I love mags, but I love playing stockclass more and since pump kits for mags cost more than im willing to pay for them I decided to part with them.

All of them have applied to me at some point...besides the last one because I would personally cancel my account if that was the case.

Hey there's a fairly important option you left out -- the classifieds. AO has a huge userbase and no matter what you're into you can find stuff here.

Came here when I had a mag, loved it place, decided I will never leave. And cryed when it was down.
Recently left the mag family. Hoping to get back in.

I've had probobly 5 or 6 over the last 4 years. I love them to eath, but I'm a gun whore so I can't stick with one thing for long. I still post here because...well...I don't know. I've been here for 4 years, why quit now?

Came here because it has intellegent paintball based conversations. Other sites just don't compare. Also I came to learn about 'mags so I can get one for myself.

This forum is cool, full of knowledge and mature (for the most part) people. I find mags are cool too. If I had the money I'd own one, but alas, I'm broke lol, and my sonic borg is holding down the fort fine.

Those are pretty limited choices. I don’t fit any of them. And I would imagine a good many other members don’t fit into the restricted choices either.

Number 1 would be close, but not quite.

I just like AO because there is a minimal amount of flaming, when compared to pbnation, makes this board alot more fun.

I signed up shortly after ordering my ULE Custom from WWA, I've been playing for a number of years and the kids around here seemed friendly enough.

I own mags, and love them. Also this place isn't as immature as PBN so I can feel comfortable posting without idiotic people spouting senseless posts and insult (with 3 exceptions.. but they all are probably here for the bottom reason on the poll)

im here cuse when i started out with a mag i came here to get a nice mag for cheap and to sell and upgrade my mag.

you need to put more options in the poll

i check as the first one but i dont own a mag anymore.

i own'd mags though for allmost 3 years and i love how they are. i just got a viking and now love that thing more than anything but im planning on buying a mech soon :D

soo basiclly im here cuse i like mags. i used to buy and sell lots of things here (look at my feedback thread) http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?t=101407

and i like the ao people. well some of em ;)

i dont fit into any of those categories, they are pretty limited.


Are you asking, why I am here, or why I joined?

I joined because I own mags and love them

I stay because of the people.
thats closer. i found out about mags through the field/ebay/warpig, and bought a ule custom from WWA after deciding it would be cheaper than making my own mag. i found out about AO through searching the net to find out about mags, lurked a bit, and then joined when my mag had a leak. since then i bought an 04/05 freestyle and prefer it to mags, since its faster than my mech, doesnt have a huge battery pack, and the whole gun was cheaper than a devilmag upgrade. but since then i have stayed for the people and the community. i have a PBN account, but i still like AO better.
