 Topic: Why are YOU here?Posted: 28 October 2005 at 9:33pm |

So I was thinking today, what is it about this forum that draws each member back everyday? I am sure we all joined this forum because we all had an interest in paintball or Tippmann Products but over time interests change yet people still keep coming back? Why is that?
I like to lurk the Marker Gallery to see the incredible talents that our members use in creating awesome marker mods. I also enjoy having disscussions with various members on a gambit of topics. What are your motivations for coming back if they aren't based in paintball? Edited by Hades |

I used to be a big fan of the marker gallery. I just got sick of seeing
everyones nice marker when I had a stock A-5 plus some of the comments
I read in the T&O are funny and I like to help out as much as I can
in the New Players.

An even mix of T&O and upgrades/maintenance/general learning. I have recently come to appreciate the Gallery more as well.

To help educate people. Thats about it. The more correct information is
posted in places like Maintenance, the better off everyone is.

I used to enjoy helping people. Then, they turn on you and educating people becomes less fun and more of a chore.
T&O is fun though. |

I read all the topics in T&O. That and I feel like I know alot of
the members here. It's just not the same at any other forum.

I'm not sure really. I never really leave T&O. Very rarely.

The fact that this is the first forum I've ever seen gives me an emotional bond to the forum. I know more people from this forum than any other and it feels like I have built up sort of a reputation here. I've also gained more paintball knowledge through the forum than through any other. It like... un-noobified me. |

I guess after 6 years I just got addicted to T&O. I don't know what it is. I used to post in all the other forums and help people but then that just got repetative, now I just make asshole comments in TO to try and increase the size of my epenis to compinsate for having such a small penis in real life.

I have no idea. I was all about helping people when it started. But I only understood barrels. Now I dont understand anything because I went away from paintball to long. I like reading the debates in Thoughts and Opinions Section.

It has the right balance of members. On other forums I feel like
a small nobody . . . Here I know who people are and where they stand
and such.
I also come becuase I have no life. |

I like this forum (1) The Look at amazing markers (2) Because paintball is the sex (3) I have a Tippmann (4) The people are great, more friendly and better bonding (I find) then PBnation and other forums |
