I have a serious addiction to paintball...... i play every chance i get (at least 1ce a week) and i am constantly filling up my air. I am finding that i spend all my time that i am not playing paintball working so i can play paintball. I work almost full time and am limited to about 200 a week. I often buy 2 cases of paint then mooch off my parents for money and use the rest on air.....i shoot.....even if i dont have paint....

Every where i go i think about playing paintball there.....work....school.....driving down the road

Dose any 1 else have this problem?

You share the same "problem" as most of us.
Welcome to the world of good players.

200 a week is pretty darn good compared to what I'm getting, but it seems you have an actual job. 40 a week for mowing lawns doesn't get me too much, and I haven't mowed a yard in around 3 weeks due to the cold. I have the same problem somewhat. In my room my gear is scattered around, and I constantly clean and oil my marker. I dry fire all the time for no reason really. Weird huh?

I feel your pain.

Im getting the shakes about now, haven't been able to afford going since i played back in september with Lamante.
Due to lack of a job and saving for air and a trix im short cash.
I'll get one more playing day in before winter then i have to deal with it until febuary when i'll have my gun (hopefully) and can play at the new indoor field going up kinda near me.


If you want to save some money don't shoot as much paint, limit yourself to a certain amount per game, you'll see the effect in your wallet soon enough.

I've been short on cash lately as well with the lack of yards needing to be mowed. Luckily, I get to head out the field Monday with a few friends from 10 dollars a week for allowance and saving up some lunch money.

College=:( and :) once you see all the fine ladies. I especially like the religious girls over at the institute of religion by my school.;)

I think college beats paintball overall, but I am so tired of taking math. I also have to work on the weekends now, so I am about to sell everything but my PGP, Tigershark, and a splatmaster.

Oh yes, the college ladies are very nice:D
Yeah, math is definitely sucking.

So true....and it's real torture because I'm now about five minutes away from warpaint, and another 15 or so from splat action (In high school I was about 2 hours away).

I spent the money that I could spend on a mag, tank, level ten upgrade, etc.

Oh, and I started dl'ing matches too:
Aftershock vs. Dynasty, Assassins vs. Aftershock, Dogs vs. Shocktech, Dynasty vs. SC Ironmen, Dynasty vs. Strange, Dynasty vs. ton tons, Femmes vs. Fat city, Lockout vs. Maxim(?), Pan Am 2k3, Texas Cup 2k3, and World cup 2k2 (naughty dogs vs. Shockwave).

They help
