On December 24, 2001 I saw a 98 Custom sitting on my father's front seat of his truck. So of course I immediately ran to the computer and looked up the forum and registered my first nick on Old Blue (I think res3adm, I registered it on the new forum again). Later I came back to the new forum (I think in October 2002) with the most newbish name on the planet, TiPpMaNgUy03. Rofl. I stayed long after quitting paintball because this was my first message board and i've met a lot of cool cats through the forum and PBC/#tippmann.

Came for the paintball . . . stayed for the people.
Plus I'm way to old to learn to use a new forum. |

I started with a tippmann back in like 2000ish met a guy edmund on here from the city and 3 or 4 times we played together he was able to bring 25 players with him!!!
I now own a field nad was hoping to book some large groups like that but it seems there are not a ton of players on here any more. Still check once in a while but not much. I even offered a FREE weekend including FREE paint and noone from forum came lol |

Early 2004 I got my first marker - a 98C - resgistered here, and the rest is history.
The really amazing bit is how many of us are still around and how we can look back and see how we've (almost) all grown up so much in that time. Most of us were teens / early 20s just getting started in life, and now look at where everyone's at. We've got dudes getting married; successfully (if not deliberately?) breeding; cops, paramedics, more military than you can shake a stick at, technicians... Politcs now means something to most of us... Most of us have seen at least some chunk of the world in a way unique to each of us. A place like this, I think, has let us stay in touch as people have 'moved on' with real life that rarely seems achievable with one's actual high school crowd. It's pretty cool.

I started playing paintball in highschool, and saved up enough to get myself a 98 custom and extremely overpriced CO2 tanks/ paint. I checked out the tippmann site to read/ learn more and more and more and found the forum and registered. I posted a question about which barrell was better, and got my answer. A while later I remembered about the forum and came back and havent left since. It's actually been the first link in my browser bar ever since I got my own computer, and still is.
I stay for the people, I know such odd stuff about some of the people here, and have had really great conversations/ times with them. Having a consistent group of people to play games with online and such is great since you build a rapport. |

I had a paintball related problem with I believe was a used SL-68II. I was amazed how quickly I got a response and have stayed around ever since. It was probably a couple of years on the board before I stepped into T&O. I've enjoyed it despite getting slammed early on by jumping on the, "Sporx is hot" bandwagon. |

I have been playing since 1999 ish and Tippmann has been my favorite marker and company to work with for many of the years. I own many different markers by many different manufactures, however Tippmann is still my top pick, As I currently own every Tippmann model, from the SMG 60 to the Crossover. (Yes I have no life) ..lol... I signed up in the Tippmann Forums to just get try and keep in the loop with what is going on with paintball and Tippmann... I do not post much or that often, but i still stop in from time to time read a bit.. A lot of things have changed threw out many of the years and it almost seems as most people have seemed to have forgotten these forums. However there is a lot of information still sitting around in here to be used!...

Because nobody else bumps the Christmas threads, and someone has to do it. It's tradition.
Plus the usual, "joined as a noob, never left". On a side note, ffffffuuuuu sandy. I miss electricity. |
