[QUOTE=cardfan212;31651028]Paintballers are dominant in Illinois. No airsoft dedicated fields, just paintball ones that allow airsoft sometimes. Also, paintball admission is $10 for the day while airsoft is $30 for the day. It makes me mad.[/QUOTE]
If it's any consolation, they're probably not out to screw airsofters over. Like I said before, the paint is what they make their money on. Since BBs are so much cheaper, they need to pull revenue from elsewhere. It's one reason why there aren't nearly as many dedicated airsoft fields as paintball fields- it's economically less feasible.
Let it die.
Both have their assholes.
Both have their bros.
Both have cons.
Both have pros.
Since this is an airsoft forum,
The hatred runs deep.
But since you can't enjoy BOTH,
Go the fuck back to sleep.

I WANT TO YELL TOO
Well now that it has predictably recieved many 'quality' posts.. I can ask if this seems proper:
Basic A-5 (180): [url]http://www.amazon.com/Tippmann-A-5-Basic-Paintball-Marker/dp/B004AE4X2I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313692744&sr=8-1[/url]

HPA Tank (50): [url]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015O3ZIE/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&m=A32DO2WY2M0IZT[/url]
Ammo-belt (6): [url]http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002TUSK24/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER[/url]
Total: 240
With another.. 20-40 Dollars to spend on a mask and a few ammo tubes, maybe later I'll purchase a remote line?
I was using some package deal as refrence (235): [url]http://www.amazon.com/TIPPMANN-Xray-MEGA-Remote-Guard/dp/B001VL997C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1313693104&sr=8-2[/url]
This is the airsoft subforum, not paintball. Please read the whole thread before posting something

are you trolling or dumb
[QUOTE=Stupideye;31808004]are you trolling or dumb[/QUOTE]
are you bandwagoning or does it take a megathread with a bunch of fancy diagrams and an apparent dramatic history of forum posting to not be such an asshole about one thread
Let me put this in simple terms for you...
You are in an AIRSOFT forum asking about PAINTBALL. There is definetly a logical fallacy occurring.

Airsoft - Projectile based weapons that shoot solid plastic BB's.
Paintball - Projectile based weapons that shoot paint-filled BB's designed to break on impact.
It's the inquisition in here and it's hilarious. I guess a megathread IS required for you nitwits!

And that's the exact reason we don't get along with most paintballers. We reserved the right to keep our subforum, if you want one, go petition to Gary.
What we're trying to say is that this thread was made by someone asking why we have a forum yet the paintballers don't. This isn't a thread to ask about paintball gear. What you should do is post the question in fast threads or check for a paintball chat thread.
No matter how you try to justify it, paintball doesn't belong in here and I feel you're in here to troll now.
It's dumb to crusade against anything related to paintball when at their core they share the same culture. You're right, though. This isn't the thread to ask, I'll just vacate to a designated one.
Some of us are ex-paintballers, we don't hate paintball just stupid people who happen to play paintball.
No hard feelings.

Maybe it was how you worded that, but I don't see the correlation.. If a minority of people were able to ruin an entire game for you why would you go to airsoft? -unless you were injecting subtle elitism, in which case that makes perfect sense.
Though I just used another question mark in in the belly of the beast, catch you on the flipside!
That's the thing, the people didn't ruin it. Airsoft just appealed to us more. Airsoft has it's share o idiots and assholes too, they're just of a different variety. We don't hate paintball or paintballers.

This is the Airsoft forum, so as you might know
[h2]people in the airsoft forum know fuck all about paintball guns, parts, clothes and whatnot because they don't play paintball which is why this thread failed
it doesn't matter if they're similar sports, they have completely different gear so you're basically asking a person that skis about snowboards
I don't know why you would be surprised that we can't answer your question or don't even want to because:
-this thread is deader than the phrase "deader than disco"
-we do not have the knowledge[/h2]
I made it in big letters so that hopefully you understand what I'm trying to convey easier
though some people here are ex-paintballers, most couldn't answer your question even if we wanted to

This particular thread has "failed" and gotten to page 3 because everyone has jumped on the anti-paintball bandwagon, including jokers like you who think big text is hilarious.
It's as simple as not clicking on a single thread. If you don't know, don't post. SIMPLE. Instead everyone feels the need to rub their six braincells together long enough to make some silly, worthless post.
Yes, I'm sure you can speak for the rest of your kind when you say you don't have the knowledge. Unfortunately for you, that doesn't encompass the posters who aren't pretentious asses.
Just because some people here might be able to help you doesn't mean this thread belongs here.

The thread hasn't been posted in for like 5 days until you came in here. I'd say that qualifies as dead.
There is no bandwagon. There are only people telling you you are in the wrong section.

I see the big text wasn't big enough for you

I thumbnailed it for easy viewing, if you're still not getting what I'm trying to say than feel free to view it full size.
summation:
There is no bandwagon
Nobody here hates paintball
Nobody here hates you
If we could answer your questions we would
I can speak for the rest of the forum at least 99% because this isn't a paintball forum
I would like to clarify that I'm hammering these in so bluntly not because I want to instigate a reaction, but because that is simply the truth.
I would also like to note that I misspelled the word expertise in glorious 72p text
