your point of playing

[FreakBaller12]

i was just wondering why everybody plays paintball or what they plan to do

[Carnage]

I like playing for fun.. Paintball is too addicting to stop playing -_-..

I play in the tournies for fun but I also do want to go pro because it looks really fun. I mean come on you get to play 24/7 and your make money at the same time what could be better.

To go pro, but not for a living, you can't make a living. All the pros now have real jobs, granted, some are in thier sponsors company(Ironmen=DYE, Aftershock= Shocktech for example).

Go pro for a while. If my team can get some more players, down two as of this month. One went to another team, a pro team as he put it, and the other well hasn't come to any practices for like 3 months now. Cuz I'm not going to go pro with out at the very least my Captain, automagfreek

i like to play paintball a lot, and if im good enough at it to make a living, id do it. but there are higher priorities in my life. like cartoons

[yeahthatsme]

at this point i'm just havin fun with it! playin tourney's and such, but ya never know, i could go pro!

[Mango]

I agree, if you don't play for fun, then just stop playing all together.

[BajaBoy]

play for fun, as much as i can and be the best i can be. But some things have to come first

[Rmarks]

I play for fun but I also play to get my mind off other crap, whether it be school, work, or family. Paintball really gets me in a whole new zone

[JT2002]

well goin pro is sweet, just look at if you got on an all sponsored team, such as NYX, who, my uncle is currently practicing with and could possible get on the team. now look at it, totally sponsord (sp?) they get, free airfare to tournys, car rentals, food, 150 spending cash, their own free team guns (NYX matrix) and all for free. and when u win nppl tournys and get in 1st, or even second, there is a very nice cash amount the teams gets. like at the current nppl tourny, the prize money for 1st place pro team is 20 large, even after splitting up, thats not too shabby for doing something most ppl love doing for just 3 maybey 4 days of hard work. eventually in a few years id like to get into the position of starting to play, and hopefully getting onto a pro team like NYX, since theyre local, but until the time when im at that level, i will be playing mostly recball at the local field with others and improving my skills. man, thats my dream, lol.

and with what rmarks said, true true, when im plaing paintball for a night its like im worry free, and dont care about anything else, heck, thats one thing that got me so hooked onto this sport over 4 years ago and finally in the past year or a lil more ive been working which means i can now finally afford to go play much more often than i used to. hooah!

I hope you're reffing walk ons this saturday, I think my Accuracy is gonna be off a tad

[Cryer]

I'm not addicted...I can stop whenevver I want to...

I play for the fun of it, but I like the tourny style (ie 3-man/5-man, strategy, teamwork, etc)
