How about everyone stops posting. I put my opinion out hopefully to find people agree, not ***** about other stuff. Honestly rex, you say you dont feel bad for the vet who mearly lost his leg? Im not going to deal with you. Littlemidget, how are we all white trash? Where does that even come into play? You are completely off topic. This thread spun out of control. Thanks for the laughs and such though, i loved seeing some of the random *** arguement.

Heres my point summed up: Im pretty good for my age. Im not saying im all that but im good. I can compete against some pretty good players. I just couldnt stand like other ballers i didnt know look at me and see i own all this stuff, then run thier mouth on how im spoiled and my mommy buys my stuff. That was the point. I never even awknowledged them and they look at me amd run thier mouth. Thats basically them hating on teens. Whatever thoigh.

If a mod is reading this , please close this theead, this is really annoying...

Moral of this story.....

Its life, deal with it.

There is a big difference between someone like yourself that works to buy what you want. If you are 15 and work for $2,000 worth of gear then great. Good for you. The annoying part comes from kids between 10-16 that have not worked so much as an hour and instead have their parents buy them a couple grand worth of gear. I will say though that I have met a few of the kids like that who have parents that buy them whatever they want yet they do not brag. They have great gear but that's it. They come out and play, and have a good time. You dont hear anything more from them. Then there are the kids that make other players mad. They didn't buy anything themselves yet run around saying look at my $1,600 Vapor, while pulling around a PE gearbag filled with another grands worth of equipment. That is the part that annoys most of us.

edit: if you're going to argue a quote, and you don't use the whole quote so there's missing context, it doesn't make your argument better. It makes you sound like Mitt Romney.

Haha.

Misfortune struck I was medically discharged, and I needed new skills that didn't require a fully functional leg. I really take offense at your comment at how many children I have, and how I had each without any idea how I was going to support them. I supported my family for many years and then I was injured and could not. I had to find new skills. I did and within a month I will be done with school and employed.

As far as smart I think I am above average as I now hold doctorate.

Good for you. I wish I could shake your hand. You should not feel like you need to defend yourself on here.

Your life played out based on your decisions and now you are feeling the repercussions of said decisions.

You have trouble finding a job due to your injury. But, you can still play paintball.... Interesting.

I typed A LOT more than this and deleted it. I will not dig any further into this. I do have more to say and if you care to hear it, pm me and I will. But I do not believe you should have to justify your situation to me. I am afterall, just one person on the internet.

This all really needs to stop. This is a prime example of a thread going way off topic and going way too far.

I feel the exact same way. I've been playing for two years now and bought everything I own (except a BT Omega last year as a birthday present) I have a job, I'm 16 and even making a car payment. If I want a new gun/mask/loader I go pay for it myself. My parents don't support me playing this sport because its "a waste of money" but it's what I love and they can't take it away from me. I worked my but off to get my Ego and I adore it more because of how hard I had to work for it. When something is bought/given to me I don't appreciate it as much because I didn't have to do anything for said product. At my field it's primarily young guns with some oldies but I'm the youngest on the team (mostly 20-26) and I love those guys to death. I just wish people didn't fight over the controversy of woodsball and speedball. We both are playing paintball and there are very few who respect the sport so we all need to come together and represent the sport to show how much it's evolved.

I agree with you but you have a spire and a geo 3. How can you not afford this stuff?
