How did you play before you were 10? Insurance for fields clearly states you have to be atleast 10.
13, almost 14 years for me. I quit for a year or two then got back into when my cousin started playing.

7-10 years,
August 9th, 1998
Played on my 9th birthday, the day before the field shut down.
edit: actually, it was once before then, but can't remember the date so I go off this, easy enough to remember and calculate.

me?
Yeah, i get that sometime. I guess it's cause i actually spell check, try and watch my grammar and don't act like most other people my age on the intarzwebz. Oh well, now the secret is out...

haha, oh I have my moments. Guess it helps that I'm more of a lurker on forums now then anything. On my bookmarks I have 7 forums i read every post from, with around 2 or 3 others I just check once in a while (ie PBN) just like all the knowledge around, and the people here are good.

July 30th to be exact.
There was the Nelspot 007 before the Splatmaster. The Nelspot 007 came out in 1974... and even before that was the Nelspot 707.

Started in the fall of '99, I was 13. Played a couple more time at the park in Memphis over the school year. Moved back to Arkansas June of '00, Started to play that Aug, bought my TL+ that fall.
Stopped "playing" for college but stayed in/around paintball. Moved to where Im at now, & played a little here & there. About 2 months ago decided I was getting back into it & started to round folks up to play.
Soo........... 9years total in paintball but prolly closer to 7 1/2 playing.

I'll say 15 to 20 because I started playing back in 88-89. We had nelspots and the 3357 .50 cal revolvers. I played on and off untill 98ish. I have only been back playing for a year.
