ok. call me ignorant. i played paintball once in las vegas during a bach party weekend. but didn't know forums about it existed. guess i should have since forums exist about everything else. signed up last week or so and came back to check it out a bit. interested in seeing what the peeps is like. :dance:

would i be way off base to guess that mostly gents hang out here? great if a bunch of girls repliled and said F you, we play too!

what! no girls. ah well. my wife would get jealous anyway if she knew any were around here. :D

so this is a forum for paintball in general or for a certain type of paintball gun? please tell me if such ignorant questions get old quick. just wondering.

i won't say that. and i'll even try to figure out why. i'm going to bed now. :sleeping: but fun poking around. if i get bored at work tomorrow i'll check in and learn a little more.

i guess it's never too late too start paintballing. i'll leave with a question so i'll be sure to stop back. where does one find out about paintball in your area?

www.warpig.com

is a GREAT site for finding fields and shops around you. it is also a great site for reading professional reviews and articles on how to, and how its done. LOTS of information on that site.

www.pbreview.com also has a field locator and also....reviews from people who have played at those fields. Though you sometimes have to take what some people say in those reviews with a grain of salt.

Your homepage is obviously a Neo-Nazi website and you most likely live in a dungeon as the gimp of an S&M master.







J/k, we're not that bad...

With regards to finding out about local fields, I have found that online reviews do not give the whole picture. For example, it is hard to tell how many people show up on a regular basis from the reviews. I went to one place that had several really good fields, but nobody came! I tried them a couple times with the same results. My advice is to try them all till you find what you like.

there are certainly less friendly paintball forums out there, namely the forums that cater to kids who are sheeps and follow the most trendy, most hyped gears.

you'll realize a lot of high end paintball companies hype up their products and exaggerate performance to get sales, plus they like to come out with new models each year with no significant improvement, like car companies, resulting in kids selling off their last-year gun and use the cash plus a little out of their wallet to buy this year's, so they ending up paying more for nothing much other than the new look.

not the case for us here. we aren't that ambitious about showing off so we don't have the desire for the look-how-much-i'm-better-than-you attitude.
