It's been a good run.
Thousands of next generation would-be paintball snipers are going to be buying 21" barrels and ghillie suits without our advice.
And the memories of the super chromium barrel will be just that. A memory. Buried forever on the hard-drive of a server hosting the 'ol out-dated wwf77a Tippmann forum. 
TechPB vs PBC, the dozens of iterations of IRC PBC, and paintapalooza. All but a memory, forever preserved in the archives of the Internet.

As my last act as a moderator, I hereby bumped Spydercam's point to 1,000,000 just so he'd have more than you Mehs! ;)

I started posting here as a snotty, angsty 13 year old, getting in fights with people all the time and yelling about stuff.

Now I'm almost 30 and a professor with a Ph.D.

Dang.

I'm still pretty... Well, me. But I'm much sexier now. But yeah, the "I'm almost 30 now" thing is weird...

I hope not.

I'd bet with the conglomerate ownership we're not on the radar, for better or worse.

Edit: I still need patches.

I got a PM from a Mod who stated that the plug was being pulled Aug 1st.

This is the backup plan that's been in place for some time:

I'm sure that is the truth, however much I wish it wasn't. 9/1/17 would make my 12 year annevarsary.

Guys, it's been fun. I'll join the FB group, but damn I'll miss this place.

Edit: care to share the PM? I was tempted to just change your password but I thought that would be rude.

Also let me in the group

Man. I never got the heads-up. Didn't know it was a legitimate death. That's sad. I don't have Facebook, but I may join up for this. I'll miss you folk.
