Watching Paintball Sucks, and is BORING.

personally i like to watch people that are better than me, watch their moves, see where they prevail and fail, then learn from what happens, and also u know how they play if u are up against them later...just my 2cents

Remember...you are served by your servant.
I guess "owned" has finally been used to death.

you said it ramennoodles (isac, lol). Der Der makes the game look like its the same every time. I hate der der with a pasion. It just shows all the cheating and the whining in the sport.

I agree! Watching paintball is insanely boring. Unless you are watching your own friends or AO. But PB videos are horid, all you see are guys standing behind bunkers shooting 244325 bps, and every so often you'd get a HOLY CRAP BUNKER!!!. The videos just aren't that exciting. I could care less about who wins what tourny.

i personally love watching paintball on tv. it rocks. but if you dont like watching it then...um...i guess that is ok with me. but like slade said "just keep quiet if you dont like it".

I agree you should just keep your opinion to yourself. All you've accomplished is a flame war and if you dont like this forum then leave. You wont be missed

I also enjoy watching better paintball players on video. It helps learn new tatics to use in my game. Also, I'd rather be watching paintball than a bunch of other crap on tv right now.

Wow, I love it when people use ghetto buzz words ( you got served ) to tell me that my view on current ideas and beliefs is unpopular. Oh, by the way, I DONT CARE IF I MAY HAVE USED "FRIGGIN" TOO MANY TIMES. Way to try to invalidate my argument BY NOT ADRESSING THE "FRIGGIN" issue.

Forget this forum...

No Storm, FORGET YOU!!!

I think all you guys that say you should keep your comments to yourself are missing the point of AO. If we all agreed 100% of the time, the majority of posts on AO would be "pics of my new mag," o'wait a sec......


I also think watching paintball is pretty dam borring, but to be honest paintball has alot more problems to address before it should ever consider wide syndication.

There's no flame war...
We are just saying if we like it or not, it isn't offending anyone. It'd be funny if someone got butthurt hearing that pb videos are boring.

ok, lets settle down children...

your opinion is your opinion; to share it on a forum like this one is exactly what forums are for, to speak, share and or voice your opinion all with a common interest... thus to see a thread like this is truly dissapointing

I for one will not add my opinion to this thread seeing as of how it has become a flame war.

and by the way... this is definatly worthy of a rolleyes...

I am also of the opinion that its boring to watch on TV. Every time its on TV I am interested in watching, but then once I'm watching it, I'm reminded it is boring.

Those of you who pointed out that other sports play on a symetrical field are missing out on one point. Something I never really noticed until Tom Kaye mentioned it at the AO CA day.

Other sports have a focus object that is constantly in motion. The "ball" itself. You watch to see which team can move the ball to its intended goal the best. Paintball as it is played now does not have that, and I believe that is a major portion of why its boring to watch.

i like to go to the field at watch people and learn how to play a field better, and as far as the vids online, some are ok but most suck, they zoom in too far, if they had like an overview of the whole field it would begood, i think...the only not boring online vid i saw was like dynasty vs someone and one of the guys got pissed off and peppered a reff and then all the rest of the refs jumped onto the guy and threw him to the ground...the rest of it was boring tho, i dont like the zoomed in stuff..like i said i like waticnhg it in real life becuase u can se everytihng and i actaully learn and i try new things, and invent my own tactics
