And top it off with the fact that no crimes have been committed (to my understanding) in THIS example of misuse. It involves willing participants.

        Why not, criminals sue property owners that shoot them in the commission of the crime. They also sue when injured during the commission of a crime. Why not turn the tables?

            it appears as though this fella did the one smart thing he could have, and that was host off a linux/unix platform.

            I have the nmap session I ran against the domain, if anyone is interested... not many ports open, but enough open to cause a disturbance in the force..

              That is an incredible story or insanity. I'm stunned that people think it's a good idea.

              What will be really terrible is when the girls start really getting hurt and the anti-gun lobby uses at an excuse to start campaigning against paintballers in general.
              Or better yet, why don't you kill yourself. No, really, die. Drop dead, don't leave a note, in fact burn your house while your little ego is stuck in a bench vice so that you'll also incenerate yourslef and everything you own with it. Because that's all you're worth. You're not even wirh thte time it'll take for the house to burn down, so just kill yourself. You're a waste of space. You are nothing, you always will be nothing. Don't leave a note, you're not worth the ink. - Tyger

                  Actually, instead of (illegally) attacking their servers, everyone should send them e-mail saying only pansies would shoot them with paintballs. Real men would use rubber (non-lethal) bullets. Then they can continue their own crazy little game, WITHOUT having anything to do with our sport.

                    shartley..

                    have you considered changing your title to "the voice of reason?"

                    also, as outraged as all of us are, sam is right.. the best we can do is passively ignore this. dont bring any publicity to it, negative or otherwise.

                    you remember what happened with bum fights.. it had negative publicity, and it made money hand over fist.. lets just try to let it go, no matter how much it outrages us.. and i know it does all of us. If it concerns you that much, write a letter to your congressman... errr ummm.. something like that...

                        Or Airsoft?

                        Just kidding.

                        Hey, these folks would probably LOVE getting e-mail about the movie... good OR bad. Being seen is their goal, not being liked or not.

                          [QUOTE]Originally posted by shartley

                          And did folks lobby against the auto industry when F2F came out? How about all the other violent movies out there? Look at all the movies that glorify violence and use handguns.


                          Yeah, Shart, they do. The really radicals lobby against that stuff all the time. Although you, I, and every paintballer knows that this has nothing to do with our sport, there are people out there that HATE us and our sport simply because it's not what they are into. These people are the same kind of people that sue McDonalds because kids get fat. They bring enough suits of this kind out every year that sooner or later they're going to win one or two out of shear probability.



                          Smoking was willing. Eating fatty foods is willing. Never underestimate the ability of the people that HATE us to use something like this to attack our fair sport. I doubt their chances of going anywhere, but that's doesn't mean I like to invite challenges and threats of this nature.

                          As for the girls getting hurt. Do folks know how often people get hurt making any movie? It is a risk they take, and are getting PAID for.

                          Doesn't matter dude, and you know it. It just takes one of them to get blinded and then get an attorney who swears she didn't understand the risks.



                          I hated Jackass, and remember how many lawsuits came out of that. People, who willingly copied those stunts and got hurt then sued the movie maker (to my knowledge none were successful to date). Which gives me another idea, suppose someone decides to shoot their girlfriend because of this movie and the girlfriend sues this guy. Sure, I doubt it wins, but for a month there will be headlines about it and that drags paintball through the mud, which is never good.



                          You couldn't be more wrong. The Anti-Gun lobby HATES and Deplores all of us who use anything resembling a gun to do anything, and will stop at nothing to end our sport and make it more in line with they approve of. The do not differentiate between you, me, and the guys that shoot nude girls in the face for fun. To them, we're all the same. And they'll go after the nuts in order to get us.

                                Frankly, they should at least do what I do in the deadzone, and wear shatter proof shooting glasses. Some of them are pretty fashionable, and offer some measure of protection against an errat ball to the eye. You'll get a bruise where the lense pushes in, but no really damage (the single peice lenses are too big to go into the eye, and they really won't shatter unless something weird happens).
                                Or better yet, why don't you kill yourself. No, really, die.
