banning nitrogen

[tarrasque]

hello i am here to state a big dissapointment to me and others who go to promisedland in wisconsin

they have decided to rid their park of tournament players because they say the tourney players beat up on rec-ballers. the way they are doing this is by getting rid of nitrogen and compressed air. Now they dont sell air they allow people with air to come but they might not after this little campaign to save rec-ballers from being beat on.

i consider my self a dedicated rec-baller. i like to play in the woods and in scenario type games. i am really looking forward to playing one of the 24hour games that wayne dollack coordinates. And guess what i have a mag a good, reliable, "tourney level gun" which will run awesome on nitrogen. promisedland is banning it to stop tourney players with huge artillery from blasting newbies well i agree that some(some) players do do this but its also the newbie who doesnt know when to stop firing or gets trigger happy.

the solution to just ban nitrogen is ridiculous my friend just upgraded his custom 98 into a low pressure gun and spent alot of money and he wont be able to use it at the field and it is his only gun!!!

so if anyone would like to give me more arguments to save nitro players and ways to eliminate "tourney newbie recball killers" and if you would like to see their site or read about this act go to

thank you and please help

That is hella lame... Boycott the field... Get all the nitro people to pickett... Viva La Nitro!!!

maybe they should just get better refs.

I'd recommend going to another field. Try Paintball Sam's. Its in Wisconsin and only a few minutes north of Promiseland on Highway K.

I wonder if being a 'religious' field has some influence on Promiselands decision to ban compressed air. Makes you look nice to the newbies but bad for business.

Face it, fields probably get up to 70% of their income from 'tournament' players. If it's true, they'll probably change their minds next year.

I just checked out Promiseland's website. Go here for info on the nitro ban. http://www.promisedland.com/paintball/nitro.html

thats one of our points to get better or more refs.

i have played their for a while and i have noticed what people do there will always be some jack#@@ that will shoot at the newbies whenever he gets the chance and always will there be a person who overkills so it wont solve anything to get rid of nitro imean some guns only work on nitro or atleast work better on it. my minimag hates co2 and the cold and even in the summer it has problems nitrogen is the key towards my guns happiness.

they want to become a purely rec-ball field that doesnt mean they must get rid of nitro. i want it to be a rec-ball field i am a recballer but this is one bad thing their doin.....

anyone that knows about promised land or is a member please email them to make them see our points.

p.s. their fields are really nice thats why i dont want to leave them

i did my share by emailing them

[Hysperion]

who cares anyways....sams is 5x as good as promiseland is anyways. that's why i went there 2x and haven't been there since....

[MiCRoFooL]

Haven't been there yet, but would like to at least be able to go there and use my troublemaking marker...

Email complete.

Ive known fields that arent friendly to anyone who has something better than a tippmann with a bent barrel. They have thier church groups and boy scouts and they dont care if anyone else plays there or not. They make enough with those groups and cater to them.

If this field doesnt have that kind of groups locked in then they will have to revert once they loose business..

course - what will they do when you still whup up on the newbies with a CO2 powered Sniper 2?

[Cliffio]

wow 95 bucks a case

i wouldnt go there anyways!
thats horrendous

[Hysperion]

$95 to play on a crapp field....lol I didn't remember paint prices being that high because this was a while ago -even before I had even my old 68 mag....i probably bought 500 rounds or less while there. but anyways, i say we ban "promised land" reguardless of whether they actually get rid of nitro or not. Just the fact that they're considering it shows that they're a shallow organization and I won't give them my business. besides why play there when pb sams is so close and has tons of cool people with better prices and better fields? I just think it's funny that they're trying to discriminate based on what marker you own....If it is a religious organization like you say I wonder if they only allow certain people to join there church or whatever too..."Sorry johnny but your father was an evil man, you can't worship here."

[Paintballer86]

that is sooo lame it is not even funny...


*EDIT- I e-mailed them and asked if the were going to ban people with revvys and aftermarket barrels to

[DJSOLID]

A standard mag on CO2 will still drop the bomb on their SL-68II's and Pro-Ams and 98's. Get a good expansion chamber and a remote and show them what it's about - heck, get a phantom and show them what 10 well placed shots will do. I do feel bad for your buddy that just built his marker to be LP, tho.

Thats OK, just buy a Shocker and go beat the crap out of all of those newbies!!! WUSSIES!!!!!!!! lol!!!

haha no seriously, the gun dosent make the player, although it does increase a persons game. Just like putting Donut Tires on a ferrari. Its still a MEAN machine, it just cant go to its full potential. I say, take a bunch of tourney guys and give em rentals, TEE HEE!
