I hope it gets a better reputation. My parents still think its too messy and uncivilized. But when those guys pop up on TV I can say, hey those guys are doing it, its not uncivilized, its popular, its big, its fun, it bloodpumping, ITS PAINTBALL! It'll be more popular too...hehe...have fun...I'll try and find the original article.

hey snatch, African tribes play uncivilized games (by our standards) if they were on TV they would still be uncivilized. If paintball was in the olympics, then negative people would think badly of the olympics sponsors and the big wigs who call the shots for admitting an "uncivilized" sport meant for farm boys into the program.

P.S. hey men, we all want the same but there is always arguments for those punks who downplay the sport.

Ok PA, first, how is Paintball uncivilized?, second, farm-boys?, third, negative people (so you call them) wouldn't watch the Olympics if they hated everything so much, fourth, are you trying to start a raging conversation for the fun of it?, fifth, how does African tribes have to do with Paintball? They probably think football and cheerleading is uncivilized, sixth, whats was your point in writing that?
