in a way the fact that it is still up is a good thing.
it shows that these idiots are in the minority and the paintball community in general will come down on them like a ton of bricks.
and quite f'king right.
the war thing - i kinda get - in an abstract sense - so far as it is one side against the other....... mostly a scenario player, the kind of games we play tend to have military themes. but i don't think of them as "war" per se. it's more like chess with objectives - with paintslingers. but to try and liken it to real war is just nuts. if it comes to it i am more than happy to put myself in the line of fire on any type of paintball field, from sweeping decoy to crazy bunkering run through - but if it came to a real war i confess i'd probably be the guy huddled down bricking it. i have absolutely no desire whatsoever to see myself being shot with a real bullet (although my wife seems to think joining the army and being shot at for real might cure my obsession with all forms of paintball....)
the racist comments are just plain lunacy - ignorant and shameful - and the public should be well aware that these people have no place in a community - online, paintball, or otherwise.
