| P | A | I | N | T | B | A | L | L | : the anti drug

[Richter]

I thought paintball was a hang out for pot-heads, and hoodlums, and old ravers; at least it seems to be in my town.
oh well

[FeuerFri]

yeah, it should more than definitly be an ant drug commercial, especialy after they made the skate boarding thing one. 90% of skaters here are burn out white chocolete g wanna be kids. and i bet if enough of us e-mail them with the idea, they may just do one.

I totaly agree about pintball being anti-drug. One day, i met this guy at my local paintball field and we had a conversation about how he got into paintball. He said that he was a drug addict for 10 years (hes 18 now).

So he was 8 when he started doing drugs? How the heck does that work? What kind of parents does/did he have to allow this to happen?

As for the cigarettes and beer.. By definition, they can be considered drugs.

so is caffiene everything is made up of chemicals so technically they could be considered drugs in a very broad perspective

[paint magnet]

Well, at least illegal drugs. I don't see any underage drinking at the field, although about half of the people either smoke or dip.

[MrMag]

i dont really think that this could work seeing how many pro paintballers smoke weed, although i dont really consider weed more of a drug than alcohol.

Dude, I've got an awsome pose. I'd make an excellent model for it!

[Kaiser Bob]

Yeah, lots of stoners in pball, but hey im sure they could use skateboarding/snowboarding as an anti drug commercial so it dosent really matter.

Ha ha. When my parents questioned the amount of money I spend on paintball, I said, "It's paintball or drugs; pick one."

lol... I would have gotten smacked if I said something even CLOSE to that

[willy-t]

i am 15 years old, and am surrounded by drugs. i am usually offered marijuana every month, but no way am i ever gonna do that crap. paintball and the outdoors keeps me clean. i would like to thank you older guyz on ao, for not talking aobut wut you mite of done in the past. i used to post on this one site, where they started talking about smoking crack, and i just left that forum forever, when you see something like that, it shows that even your anit-drug can be faulty. i would like to thank all of yall on ao

[TheJester]

well i don't need paintball to keep me clean, i've been clean for 5 years now (yes i'm only 16) i too started at a young age, i also quite at a young age, and i'm not afraid to admit it. my only problem w/ paintball, is i agree, paintball is a drug, how many times have you all said "i need a source of income to support my paintball addiction" or "i need money to support my habbit" not i wish i had more $ to play paintball more, not i need more $ to support my hobby. but hey, paintball keeps me off the streets (so does living out in the middle of east jabib) but it has also seemed to take over my social life, i have no social life outside of paintball, no money for it

[Surreal]

Social life is over rated.

[BobTheCow]

lol I saw this shirt at crew practice today: on the front it said "There's more to life than crew..." and on the back it said "...there's just no time for it." (so true)

I think somebody should make one like that for paintball: "There's more to life than paintball..." then on the back "...I just can't afford it!!" or something like that. I'd buy it in a heartbeat!! (size XL )

[circus5]

age means nothing

So he was 8 when he started doing drugs? How the heck does that work? What kind of parents does/did he have to allow this to happen?

i know a few 13 yr old girls who have been smoking pot since the fifth grade and currently date guys that are like twenty something, what a world we live in....
