Just curious how you all managed to stay sane while AO was down?

And what did you do with your spare time?

To stay sane I tried going over to pbnation. That didn't work. It actually made me more upset.

Then I headed over to pblegion. I was happy to find other ao'ers over there. This is where I stayed to stay sane




I am actually amazed at what I accomplished with my free time.

I put up new crown moulding and base board in my baby on the way's room.

I just kept clicking the refresh button hoping for AO to magically re-appear. My fingers are sore and I need a new mouse now! :mad:

Gald to have it back!

:cheers:

......other than that I hung out at PBLegion.com too

I just can't do the Nation.

Hung out at my team forum and UMS.
Went to spec ops and laughed at how many apex vs flatline threads could be posted in a day.

It sucked!! I hated it. Of course I didn't spend as much money while it was down. Hmmmm. :)

Yeah my paintball spending was drastically cut down. Instead I dropped $200 on house projects. Which made the wife happy. And in the long run that makes it easier for me to play paintball.

I joined MCarterBrown, hung out my at A5OG and UMS and surfed a bit on SpecOps and PBNation, home of illiterate, gay-bashing teenage paintballers.

Hopefully, my regular hang-out places are devoid of such posters :)

i went to the nation.....

i argued. that's mainly all that happens over there. i was falsely accused of bashing someone. i defended myself. i wept over the loss of our wonderful AO. i left my house a few times. all in all it could have been worse.

Smoothice
01-04-2008, 12:38 PM
Yeah thats what I found at pbn as well.

I was very pleased with the AO'ish atmosphere of pblegion.

I was gald that AO was down, I didn't want it to come back so fast. Everytime AO goes down it gives me time to come up with some money, beacause I always want to by the stuff I see here :D

I don't know what it means either. :spit_take

It doesn't really matter to me. I was just trying to be funny. I guess my humor was wasted on you though :cheers:

Yes GH, for shame indeed, another night and still without a camera... however megawoot tonight was a goodnight :dance: No pics you filthy homelessness face man... go grub quarters or relieve yourself in someone's mailbox :argh: and just know you aren't getting any pics anytime soon ;)

:cheers: Humor not wasted at all smooth... I did appreciate it although the saying drives me insane, it's all good here.

On a side note it was a good break from AO but am happy its back. Now to sell my cnc so I can afford this one.

Well thank you very much indeed!

Yes, I have been a lurker for a while. Bought a Tac-One in September and love it. As far as markers go, it is the first marker I've throughly enjoyed since buying my old Line SI Bushmaster pump action. First shot hits are incredibly high with it.

Cheers!
