Why did you start?

[PB ninja]

Soo...

[Brazen]

what kind of stupid poll is this??

[TLplus84]

none of the selections make any sense..i just started because it was fun...is there any explanation needed?

[PB ninja]

It's poll with a bunch of joke answers, I thought it was obvious. I just thought I could poke fun at all those poll bashers out there and maybe be a little funny while I do it. lighten up.

[BaD AnDy]

Paintball? Never heard of it... :p

[Richy_C]

mmmmmmmmmmm shiny adonizing mmmmmmmmmmm

[X]

I think he knows you didn't start to train for a coup d'etat
(sp) of our government :D , I think its kind of funny.

[elTwitcho]

Woah?? my post got deleted? Big Brother really IS watching. I take back all those bad things, Hooray for capitalism! Seriously though, if what I said infracted upon the pbreview terms of service, my bad, didnt really think it was offensive, and I was only kiddin around

[Counterfeit]

It was off topic eltwitcho. I don't think it would have offended anyone. I just deleted it cause it had nothing to do with this thread or paintball.

[MC Escher]

in the actual truth, i got in to paintball cause i had nothing else to do with my money. I dont do much anything else like go out and buy a ton of crap like that, so i bought a mag on pb, saw what i liked and before even playing my first game, i bought my shutter and a load of equipment. I am glad i did too.

[PB ninja]

WOW someone actually started for one of the reasons I made up, I'm shocked.

[elTwitcho]

Ah you missed it.

one of the poll options was
"Training for the day when we will rise up against our opressive government"

And I said "Down with capitalism" to show I had voted for that one. It was a joke poll so I made a joke. Guess it was kinda vague, so I understand if nobody got it. Oh well, just showing that it wasnt off topic and actually had some relevance.

[TLplus84]

huh? small words please..LOl :D

[PB ninja]

Yeah I missed that post, it appearantly got deleted before I read it.

[Richy_C]

i still say it's shiny colors, if you haven guessed i love milling and adonizing mmmmmmmm shiny mmmmmmmmmm

[Brazen]

im not a poll basher, but all of those options are stupid. i played cuz my friends told me about it and i played and i thought it was fun.

[PB ninja]

Jeez man everyone else seems to get it. It's a joke, a gag poll. I never expected anyone to actually use those reasons to start playing (although some appearantly did).

[Richy_C]

hey, i answered good, i think it's funny and btw this is my 200th post! yahoo go richy_c!! sorry just a little excited

[PB ninja]

Yes you did Richy, I guess brazen doesn't get it. By the way how come your ranking didn't increase to amateur when you passed 200? It is still showing you as a novice.

[TLplus84]

when you get 100 posts, you become Novice. When you Post 300, you become amateur. When you post 600, you become Professional, and when you post 1000, you become paintball god. I'm proud to say i'm the first to become professional.. :D

[PB ninja]

Do you get those cool skulls like counterfeit when you are a paintball god?

[Richy_C]

tl did you post so much just to get pro? cause after you got it you didn't reply so much

[Nemessis]

[TLplus84]

hhah yeah i feel the love here.."BAN TAHT FREAK TL~!! I LIKE TO SHOOT PEOPLE~!!" :eek: :D

[elTwitcho]

Hmmm, I'd like to shoot TL+ :)

[TrOy]

I know it does sound sick but hunting another humam rocks! I am not a violent person, I dont belive in hunting any defenseless animals but there is something about going head to head against another person! Matching wits, plotting stragety! The best part about paint ball is that after the game you can talk to who you took out or who took you out and be friends! Adreniline is good!LOL

[SmartBall]

Its neet becuase you know their not gonna die (no recorded deaths related with paintball i believe), so it makes you assured that it's safe. Just the adrenaline rush to go head to head with another intelligent being is fun. Sure you can "shoot 'em up" on the video games, but nothing beats the real thing!

[A damn fool]

Yeah, its great, what so great about hunting, the dear cant fight back, and dont even know ur there. but in paintball, its an actuall one on one simulation, and the addrenalin rush is great. A lot of people think its jsut like guerilla warfae, and stupid, (whic it kinda is), but they think tis jsut killing hungry people who want to shoot eacother(*whici ti si too at times). But its great to relieve stress, an its really good exercise, i love it. I get beat after playig for 8 hours straight, and u feel real relieved after it. Just my 2 cent...

[Richy_C]

have any of you read the short story, themost dangerous game? it's cool , non paintball but very cool

[X]

I have ! Do you have the "Elements of Literature" English books at your school ? I loved that story ! (about the only one I liked in that book)

[Richy_C]

the ending was cheap though

[X]

I forgot what happened now. The guy killed the hunter, right ? What was cheap ?

[Richy_C]

they said shall we duel and it said, rainsford never slept in a more comfy bed

[X]

Oh yeah, I did feel ripped off with that ending. You think that story's a ripoff, wait until 11th grade, there's this story calle The Incident at something-or-other Creek. Good story, but the mother of all ripoffs :D

[TLplus84]

uh huh.....now the thread changes from why did you start to ULTIMATE rip off bookshehe

[Richy_C]

mmmm rip up school books, ......oh....that's not what you said is it?

[koolaidman88]

this is the biggest amount of spam ive seen in a thread, im surprised it still up. even this is more spam, and none of the spam deals with pb!

[Counterfeit]

SPAM? where is there spam in this thread? It is way off topic, but there is no one spaming here.

[koolaidman88]

well... i ment off topic, but people posting nonsence is spam, isnt it?

[Counterfeit]

No spam is unsolicited adds basically.

[TLplus84]

HEY THIS IS OFFTOPIC...(paintball) you see(camo) i'm always (flatline air system) on topic :D:D

[Dräko]

I Wanna be a paintball god :(

Yeah, that's it, thanks. BUT, you ruined the ending for Richy ! Now how is he going to get as ripped off as we were? I told you it was the mother of all ripoffs !

[jrr112]

i started playing because its fun. there is nothing like spending a day with a group of friends trying to shoot each other.
