      good for you.
      Ya mind leaving me your name, address and location so i can get your confession to the local police department? No, im serious, i'll take all the long distance phone charges with a smile.

      There is no room in paintball for bottom of the barrrel worthless, lowlife good-for-nothing vandalistic peices of crap such as yourself. Let me catch you doing somthing stupid like that and i can ASSURE you that you will spend time in jail.

        I am doing everything I can do to make sure their are NO more paintballers than what already exist. There are too many already, and the only ones I like to play with or against I already know.
        If, in the unlikely event I do play with someone I believe is worthy of the game, then I promote that person, and try to make some other A-hole I can't stand quit the game.
        Cheating, overshooting, shooting hot, screaming, throwing my gun (or better yet, his) all seem to work to balance the scales.
        Brent.
        I don't practice anymore: I'm just good in a natural, vicious sort of way.

        Will you please tell your boobs to quit staring at my eyeballs?

          I help kids if their gun breaks down.
          Give them tips on what to do.
          Be a ref, for most of the day, because of the lack of refs at me field.
          Let kids use my guns.

          I really just try and do what I can to help everyone have a great and safe day of paintball.

            -I organized the Annual NorCal vs SoCal AO Day. To that end I also made other parts of my website as a resource for people
            -I have reffed on/off for over 4 years at T.A.G. Paintball
            -I make it a habbit to try and give out paintballs so that my friends can play longer.
            -My giant box of parts for Mags is most often used to help fix other peoples Mags
            -I suffer trials and tribulations in an effort to bring you fun little (ok sometimes a bit larger) movies.

            But see I like doing all that so it's almost like those of us who really are the enthusiasts do these things according to what we can offer. I am just happy people like what I do.

                Level up or GO BACK TO PBN, your missing the point of this thread ya sourpuss. It is not about bravado or who has done more for the sport. In fact, most of the folks that posted on this thread have done pretty selfless thing to promote the growth of the sport. I just wanted to give the chance for everyone to chime off and have their efforts recognized. The inttent is to convey new ideas of how to spread/promote the sport among the AO collective.

                  The rants aren't about "nothing" they are on topic. However your post isn't and it is meaningless, please go back to PBN with the useless post.

                    i have introduced my brother, mother, aunt, 2 uncles, many friends and soon my father to the sport, all of who have memberships at the field i play at every month. along with that anytime i play with new players i try to get them up on the front lines with me and other fellow experienced players. i help fix guns on the field and give advice to younger newer players. at the field where i normally play at we have even given away chests, equip, and guns to newer players. well, still doin my part.
                    Always always always pillage before you burn!!!

                              wasnt trying to hijack the thread, but let me explain.

                              since ive been involved in paintball (somewhere around 9 years now) I constantly find myself on the front line of paintballs image of social acceptance with whatever community i happen to be a part of. Im the guy at the paintball shop, and have been so at more than one place - - for over 5 years now.
                              Im the one that TONS of people come to regarding paintball.
                              I've been the 'only' baller in many social circles and have had to deal with the terrorist training steryotypes, the 'david koresh' cult type steryotypes, the "thats the most dangerous thing in the world" sterotypes, as well as the vandalism sterotypes. The last one really gets on my nerves.

                              Ive had many people come into the shop or simply stop and talk to me elsewhere (because they knew about my involvement in paintball) mad. Steaming mad and looking for a fight because some dumb punk shot up their house/car/kid/dog with a paintball gun. They have come to me yelling and cussing about how paintball should be banned all over the country because of situations like theirs. How'd they'd NEVER play or EVER let their kids play somthing like that. Ive had parents and grandparents swear that would do anything they could to prevent paintball from becoming recgonized as an organized sport.

                              Is it stupid? yeah. It dosent make me a baseball player if i go out and shatter some kneecaps with a ball bat, does it?


                              The bottom line is this. I dont joke around with paintball vandalisim.
                              Im the sorry guy that has to deal with the aftermath of it all.

                              2003paintballa,
                              if you were joking, just dont worry about it. I just find some things decidly NOT funny.

                              If you were serious, believe me: I meant every word i said.

                                i have helped pay for and put up about 3 fields around our town
                                shared the good news w/ kids everywhere i go
                                i leave magazines at school(sometimes not on purpose. hehe)
                                The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves. 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
