Disturbing use of paintball guns

Ya know Shart, you drive me nuts when you use that train of thought as an arguement, which you do a lot.

Becuase isolated incidents of misuse on a field that go completely unreported in the mass media don't drive away folks who don't know about them neither will a gross misuse of equipment that IS broadcast on cable news.

Right Shart, keep telling yourself they're the same.

Albinonewt - I don't always agree with Shartley. As a matter of fact we probably disagree more than we agree. I think, however, that he is stating his case clearly. His opinion is simply that this will not have a huge negative impact against paintball. Right or wrong it is just an opinion so there is no reason to "go nuts about it".

I understand where you are coming from. This activity concerns me more for the women involved than any impact on paintball (I don't think anyone should lose an eye for such a stupid reason (no matter their stupidity either)). I think Shartley is right that it won't have a negative impact as far as paintball is concerned. I think that it will probably be shut down and then this will all blow over. Just my opinion, however.

where can I download the vid of the story the Las Vegas news did on this. I checked out the Bambi site but I can't find any kind of downloads section where I would find the news story for download.

They just showed a model on TV "Playing paintball" With no gun, no cloths and no Goggles.

They had the usual Carp, Pallets, and spools. $10,000.

I think were all upset but I dont see how this can contine. The girls will get hurt, lose and eye. Lawsuit. End of "new Paintball sport."

Like why dont they just give the models shorts, kneepads, bra, goggles and a Xmag. Than charge $200 a day?

Since what I specifically said was:

Second, I don't think the real danger is to the sport of paintball as much as it is to the people that produce paintball markers. They're the ones that will have to defend themselves against (baseless and insane) allegations when something happens. The sport of paintball may bu "put on trial", but more likely it will just be the paintball markers and their manufacturers that have to deal with it

Sounds like the "Doom of Paintball", only the complete opposite.

i went to check the hunting for bambi site for the waiver that 'hunters' have to sign, just to read things over.

I am also interested in obtaining the waiver that women sign. If anyone has these readily available, please PM me and let me know..

but, moving right along.

it does appear now that the hunting for bambi site has been taken offline.

when navigating to the site, the message:

"This is not a public server. Go away."

meh. anyways. if anyone has those waivers, i would love to read over them.

thanks

There is no waiver for the "huntes" to sign. Fork over $10 K, get what you went there for.

And the site is still online. I've just opened it in anoher window. But for some reason it's down to the DNS entry (http://66.226.85.62/) It's REALLY slow, I have a distinct feeling it's being flooded or pinged into nonexistance.

Not like I'd condone that kind of thing.

as phil suggested:

ok, in a small meaningless effort to try and make light of this situation.. i found a silly, but racy picture online that I came up with the caption of "bambi's fight back"

due to the racy content, you will have to PM me for the link to this picture.
