Help Save Paintball.

Ok Cjohns. Chaps - lets all chill a bit. At the end of the day they done wrong, we just reacted. I think our responses have been measured but passionate and well put across.

Lets just let em know it's not on and whay we think so.

Peace and respect...

Good Man,

Its better to stand by what you say than to always back down.

I just wonder if we get replies?

Or will they ignore us?

They will probably ignore us, but at least they will read it and know how we feel.

Done by me too, including a link to a photo of the Chicks at a tourney looking really happy. Sorry Sparklie, but I included a link to your site without checking with you first - hope you don't mind.

Hey Chip,

I can tell you've been in the military for a while (joke)
I'm not saying that you are wrong, or that it justifies what they wrote. The problem is that to THEM it justifies what they wrote. They can pretty much interpret it as they want. They can scratch themselves behind the ears and say: 'My word, we seem to p*ssed of a large number of people. Maybe our representation was slightly flawed.' Or they could just snort and say: 'Look, one of them weekend warriors is even threatening with physical abuse!' See the difference?
I know what you meant, I feel the same way, and I guess that most of us do, but it just weren't the smartest words to chose...Bit of a kneejerk reaction if you catch my drift.

Later!

Cool - I was wondering when the fairer side of the game would get involved!

More ladeez pleeze - send loads of mail!

Bud-- I see your point. I should have waited a while and thought about my words before I sent it out. But oh well, they can kiss my ass and so can that Dr. punk. Now I am finished and back to happy posting

Well instead of threaten them with fist or anything of the sort I am going to remap a mission for our F-16's in the area of the Editors and Printers of the mag. Hopefully they don't hit the wrong target!

You know this article is BS and maybe some more of our fellow FEMALE ballers should send them e-mails. We should also get the Women Paintball group involved. What that doctor did is make sexist remarks about the sport and women do indeed play!

 

[Billy No Mates]

well the little voice at the back (me) has also spoken up, and they have recieved an e-mail from me.
Its sickening to see people slate wat they dont understand

Reply?

I worded my own email and invited them to reply either here or to visit the big game or a tournament to see if their research was accurate.

I'd like ot see someone reply on here from IPC Media for us all to see.

 

[Tom Tom]

If any one gets a reply then i think we would like to see it.

I wonder if we will get them to play a supair day?

Very unlikely.

Ohh well lets just try to get as many emails as we can to them
