Damn, if i didn't have enough stressful crap going on at the moment with uni and whatever...I check out the forums and the level of bitterness and hostility is even worse, makes me all depressed. :(

Can't we just all be friends and love each other?

Please?

WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK ABOUT THE CHILDREN!!

OK, I have to confess...

This was a conspiracy to attract more readership to this forum and to bring some dynamic tension to the first EXL games.

Remember Robbo and I are in the entertainment business now!:p

(And I publicly apologize to Robbo for carrying this too far in the insult department. Bad judgment and unprofessional on my part.)

This is my last post in this thread (unless somebody pipes up and starts digging).
Steve, if you read back thru the last year or sos PGIs then you will see that no other paintball commentator has given due credit to both Xball and the achievements of the Millennium more than myself.
To be told one of the staunchest advocates (PGI) is to be banned from taking pictures of any EXL event (of which I and PGI are team owners of Nexus) thereby excluding any coverage was a fcukin insult to us here.

I am fully aware the ban has now been rescinded (not that it was instated anyway) but this is not the point.
We received an email from Karilin telling us we were not able to photograph any of the EXL events consequently cutting off our editorial lifeblood.

My only crime in all of this was to not want to listen to any of the reasons you had for justifying the ban because whatever reason you were going to tell me, it was gonna be bollocks, I therefore put the phone down and spared myself the rhetoric.
Short maybe but not rude and certainly not insulting.
I don't need to detail the catalogue of errors you have been party to and the way your organisation is being viewed with respect to professional conduct and dissemination of misinformation.

I just hope the forthcoming XBall season is run a little more professionally and ends up doing XBall the credit it deserves and not dragged thru any more unprofessional dirt.

-You are infallable and completely devoid of a temper
-You are an example of courtesy and lead by example

I'll go get that life now - thanks for the kind advice, it is greatly appreciated, and is sure to do me good in the years ahead.

Sarcasm is allegedly 'the lowest form of wit', you are therefore in good company with your own words especially when you precede the last word of that quote with the letter 'T' !
