View Full Version : Got some sad news...

I feel alittle funny posting this here, but oh well.
I was admitted to the hospital on monday for heart complications. I was just released, but it sounds like the complications may restrict my play perminently, but atleast till next season it seems. Im pretty choked up about it, i love the sport and even more so i love the family here, and really wanted to try to get a Quest owners Team rolling like previously suggested.
Im not trying to make waves and shit, hell im alright-
Its a rather common condition, just normally not in somone whos 22 :(
Im still gonna be all over the forums, hell no doc could stop me from that. And not even the most skilled surgeon is going to beable to pry my dust blue quest from my hands...but as excited as I was for my lnib dust olive, im going to have to let her go since a backup marker when you cant ball is rather silly. I have not gotten it yet, still in the mail from canada. whne it comes in I will release pics for the family and you guys can contact me if your interested. I wont be puting it in BST forum since I cant handle tryign to explain why im not going to take a trade...Plus i want it to go to a good home. (***fyi if somone thinks this belongs in bst forum i will Photoshop a picture of my ass so you can kiss it in any color you like.)
Honeslty, dont worry its not a big deal, I just wanted everyone aware. I just know that the meds im on are not going to allow me to play anytime soon. Maybe next year, but im in the midwest, and season ends for me when its below 50...sorry cold ball is not my style. Maybe next year I can be on meds that allow me to be active more safely...until then I think i am going to get back to Photoshopping. I figure i have a long time to create and save for a wicked anno....
Anyhow, Lets keep the family growing the same way it has been. Support and fun, I will still be happy to do all Photoshopping I can, and I think im going to start learning other software to try to design the grips i have been dreaming up in my head....
FEP FTW

dude that sucks major ass, GL to you and your heart man, god willing you can play next year atleast. as for your olive quest i'll look around and see if anyone i know is in the market for a high-end paintball gun, and i'll make sure they know how to handle a PB gun properly. (if u want or if u wanna sell it locally be my guest)

sorry about losing your brandnew olive quest and getting the heart condition. my advice cram down those vitamins get your heart a pumpin. good luck with heart problem. great way to get erg of playing is to get friends to run around in backyard and you shoot the h*** out of them it is really fun/funny.

First of all, im sure you will be fine. At a young ages heart conditions tend to be grown out of, but of course i will keep you in my prayers. and onto business :dodgy: i might need your body/feedneck. But thats if i cant do anything about my current dilema

Sorry to hear this man. I hope you get back into ballin' shape asap.
On the bright side it'll give you time to work on more of those awsome photoshops you do. Then you could learn CAD and start designing PL Quests!

Dang bro that does suck....But as much as it pains me to say this....LISSEN TO THE DOCS!!! ;)
Better not to ball then do damage to your body. I'll keep you in my prayers

Lu...talk to me anytime. Always stay close! I feel so bad that my normal Forum trollness was prevented from 8am yesterday to 12pm when I fell asleep on a maaaajor long work day and I missed this post. But i'll make up for it! Keep strong and our family here will always be with you!
Hey! If you can't ball...save up that $60-80 a week from paint/field fees and come visit!
LU_aDaK
08-31-2006, 10:38 AM
Lol 60-80 ahahah.
bro my field is BYOP. And im a lifetime member since 1995, so its 15 to get it. I get cheap box of tomohawk for 25. 40 bux does it.
Gailon
08-31-2006, 11:02 AM
Meh. Field paint around where I go is $40. Plus $15 to get in so I'm around 55-60. It's BYOP but trying to find any paint for a case less than $40 is from what i've found not worth my trouble and probably more in gas to get it. Though I do wish I could find a cheaper way to buy paint. I can get the field paint online for like $32 but after shipping it's up to like $40 so what's the difference lol

Wow shes sexy. Props for OG grips. Gonna have to order a set for my blue. I love the look of the new grips, but the wieght and feel of the old are unmatched by the new.

looks very hot, whoever buys that is very lucky.
LU_aDaK
08-31-2006, 11:52 AM

Gailon
08-31-2006, 11:54 AM
What exactly are those grips? Original just without the paint?
NYGuardians capt.
08-31-2006, 11:55 AM
haha yeah, i gotta sell off some extra PB gear and buy another quest but most of my stuff is getting worked on right now lol
Gailon
08-31-2006, 11:58 AM
And I've always wanted to know, what's the FEP symbol on your blue one Lu? Is it a jewel of some sort? Or a sticker?
LU_aDaK
08-31-2006, 06:03 PM
Im noticing alot of interest in the 2nd quest. Please keep the interest to PM's and AIM conversations so I dont get banned for BST bs. I have fallen in love with the olive so now im unsure which i like more lol. Either way I dont have a lowest price to offer. Im in no rush, I just know having 2 quests when Doc's say I cant even technically go and use 1 is rather un-needed. If you are interested please just hit me up with an offer, I will be sure to try to keep everyone updated.
Once again your support has brought a huge smile to my face, I would expecialy like to thank Big Dave for the inspiring phone convo. I promise big man, I will be in cali soon enough.
