AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.

Edit: Forgot one
Punch in Face or Listen to her complain shes on the rag.
#1. Get a girl that likes/has played a sport at some point in her life. (Note: Cheerleading is a sport, many of those girls get seriously hurt and keep doing it)
#2 At some point in a relationship, the girl will get it in her head that you don't "Spend enough time together" or "Should do more together".
Now you have two choices here. You can play the traditional role, complain, whine, end up doing something stupid you don't want to do. OR! You can play the game on her level. You can say "You're right, we don't! Did you have something in mind?" (Note: She already has something in mind.) You then accept what she tells you with "That sounds like it could be fun". Now, here is where you win. You then say "Ya know, I will go try doing that with you, and see how I like it, but you should do something I like to do and see if you like it." She will then say "Like what?". Then you say, "Well I really like playing paintball, you should come try it out". Now see, what you've done here is really given her no option. If she says no, you can then play her traditional role and respond with "Well I was willing to do what YOU wanted to do!", (act upset).
See what you've done here, is placed her in unfamilliar territory. SHE just made herself the bad guy. This is normally something you do. Important note here: After she has agreed to try paintball. Make sure you do her thing first, and try very hard to have a good time with whatever it is. If she thinks you're just going through the motions to placate her, she will do the same to you at paintball.
Now, once you get her on the paintball field.
#1. Give her some helpful hints/instructions. No more than 10-20 minutes.
After that point, only answer questions when asked.
#2. Do not make her feel like she's not good at the game. If she gets a halfway decent shot, say "Nice shot!". Girls like compliments, not just about their looks.
#3. Play some Recball, stay with her on the field. Work with her as a team. If you go wandering off it's not "Together time". (Don't worry she'll grow out of this when she gets into it).
#4. As we all know, sometimes on the field we will bark orders at each other. DO NOT DO THIS TO HER. Remember, she's not that into it yet. She may take it as bossing her around.
Say you need to move up, but you're pinned. Ask "Do you want to move up while I cover you? Or should I move up and you cover me?". Then it's her choice, and if she gets out before you, do something stupid and get shot out too. Once again, this is (together time). If you're out playing for another 15 minutes while she's sitting their bored, then she's bored.
ok so now how in the world did you a) find these girls at the field or b) get these girls to play?
She was actaully the one who approached me about playing. Loaned her a bunch of my extra gear, and she is now hooked. She is actually an awsome player first day she was ahead of the pack crawling through the bush.
My wife plays, actualy we met playing a tournement, and now she is me buy the local feild so once our second child is born she can get back into playing again. Hmmmm, thats expencive.
Its alot of fun haveing some one that enjoys your hobby, or was it her's, any ways, you all know what I mean.
