    Hey n00bs for your benefit and ours...

    Named after the IBM super computer, Deep Blue is headed by Tom Kaye, president of AGD. This forum is open to the public, but only high end technical subjects are allowed. If your posts don't cut the mustard they will be moved.


    Whats with the newb questions? no disrespect... but man, there have been a good chunk as of late. I guess that happens when your one of the more "respected" paintball forums. My guess, they all fear the grill of PBN's relentless "search Button Nazis", the AGGS (in the negative sense) and tom foolery.

    I find it funny how certain topics/threads on AO read like a classroom, as if people are getting a frealz education on paintball. There is almost like a paintball "socialization" that goes on. There is so much basic knowledge here, it seems naturally, people learn through osmosis. Kinda like a contact high.

    Anyway, thats my rant.

    My rejoinder to that would be the atmosphere here is friendly to new people; which is good.

      What the hell kind of word is "rejoinder"? <-----See, I'm winking because it is a joke.

      But seriously, I really like the environment we have hear on AO. I have enjoyed learning from other peoples knowledge, and passing on mine to those less...urm...knowledgable. What we have going is a good thing.

          Ahhh...thanks for clarifying that for me. I'm a little new at this, I've only been speaking English for about 19 years now. <-------Yet another wink. Yup, you guessed it, a joke.

            19 years and you've never heard the word rejoinder? Have you considered sueing your high school for letting you graduate without a complete education? Man, I'd be pissed!
            The arrogance of other people annoys me. My own doesn't bother me a bit.

              Ok, number one: I have heard the word before, it is just not one you hear very often. Number two: I was kidding (hence the "But seriously" after it.) You know what? I'm goint to rectify it right now.

                    LOL, sorry man! I was just giving you a hard time. Whoooooo!!

                    Okay, I'll try not to push your button so hard next time.

                    Good response, though! You made me laugh.
