Why do we have an Angel forum?

[WicKeD_WaYz]

I guess I never really thought about it. That angel forum has been here as long as I have had this screen name. I cant remember if it was here when I had my other one(Bruized Star), which must have been 3 or 4 years ago. But I never really thought about it, why an angel forum, but at the same time no other "non-mag" type of gun forum? Im sure theres a legit reason that goes way back....

I've often wondered about this.

As have I, I don't think we ever really got an explination.

From January 2004 issue of PB2X page 142: "Moving a mouse over these links opens a drop-down box to that can take a user even deeper into the site, to places like the Automag home, Angel owner's home in association with Bob Sandifer and The Angel Guy..."

Because Tom bought one of the Angel Owners Groups a few years ago.

Thats right. It was going out of business and he wanted to keep, at that time, his pulse on the hearbeat of the major competetor to the eMag. Just so he could also keep up with what they were doing and we had a fairly large group of Angel owners among out Mag owners group. So he bought it and we found a great supporter of the Mag AND Angel in Bob Sandifer to Moderate it and it just fell into place. And after discussion with WDP they didn't have any interest in a Internet presence as a company either.

Now at that time we felt we did not need any other specific marker forums here other than that. There are just too many of them coming and going and not always marker specific manufacturers of those so up until now we just have not really seen the need to provide a special place for them. Too many to keep up with as they all seem to be built by so many others. However, who knows what the future will bring in that area.

Good idea except think of the flame fest that would happen...it crops up often enough in paintball talk at least when us Angel owners post up we don't get that heat.

BTW as I have said more than a few times before I own Mags as well as other stuff

Ult, there are cocker-devoted forums out there... Tom adopted the Angel one at the time because it was the ONLY one, and he wanted to keep it alive. It IS okay to venture outside of AO from time to time, however painful it may be.

A couple of the guys over there had there cars shot with paintballs. I guess that makes it kind of a paintball forum
